    I guess I'm in the middle. Better to be safe than sorry but also not be stupid.

    The USA is doing a pretty good job in moving towards natural gas (while being more vigilant about methane leaks when fracking), wind, and solar while phasing out coal (the dirtiest of the all...basically the Sasha Grey of power production).

    China and India will be getting in line...partially due to declining arable land and partially due to citizen complaints of terrible pollution (acid rain, spoiled bodies of water, suffocating smog, etc).

    China is hurting badly due to overcapacity and bad debts in the steel / coal sector anyway though India needs to get its act together faster if it wants to take advantage of low oil prices to reinvest in their non-oil infrastructure and power.

    Give lower earners a tax credit then to make up for the (slightly) higher prices they would face at the pump.

    Proving it will help of course is impossible until you try it, but that doesn't seem to stop innovation in tech and pharma, etc.


    Yes!!!! Throw Tax credits and Government Mandates at the problem. Always an effective method of achieving a desired result. Warming is real. It may be man made. It may not be but charging the poor American working stiff trying to get to work and maybe take the family to the park or the woods won't even put a scratch in the level of Co2 emissions on this big blue marble. Assuming that Co2 is the problem.

    But libtards will feel good because they can say they did something as they cruise their electric car which is probably half powered by coal plants silently down the road.
    Nearly all climate scientists agree that it's man-made, but I'm going to listen to some Cuog on a message board. Sure.
    I'm hearing the science is settled.
    That's a fucktarded metaphor.

    Lots of scientists disagree with the global warming crap. The collusion that's pulling down all the grant money has been caught red handed fudging the numbers, the deniers haven't.

    This is the stupidest fucking argument of them all.

    If you are making the money argument, you're doing it wrong.

    It's much easier to sit back and deny, deny, deny, than to prove a scientific theory. Yet the deniers pretend they're equivalent. So some climate scientists got ahead of themselves and over-stated their cases. It's not right, but that shit happens, and it got corrected. But, because some scientists fudged does not, ipso facto, invalidate the entire field or theory, especially with mounds of supportive data and research. Yet, confirmation bias enters the picture and people then extract from one example to conclude it's a complete fraud. Not exactly empirical or scientific, yet politically extremely effective. Obviously.

    The deniers need only use the data the liars have. Simple stuff.
