No as a person who believes we should conserve the environment intelligent... I am against expanding nuclear power until we find a way to deal with the waste and I would rather see the billions and billions we spend on global warming bullshit be returned to the tax payers or spent on cleaning up the oceans and helping fisheries improve.
So you don't believe that man's release of greenhouse gasses has caused the planet to warm. Is that right?
More like - man's contribution to 'global warming' via the release of greenhouse gasses is so insignificant it is not worthy of concern, and does not require any type of public policy action. This may be a good time to point out that the planet is actually entering a natural cooling cycle, and cold is a greater threat to mankind than heat. The billions of government research dollars wasted on 'global warming' CO2 research should be diverted to focus on helping man adapt to a naturally changing climate. Examples of this include improved housing materials, improved construction methods to endure storms, advanced utility research for water/sewer, and other items that will benefit man in adapting to either colder (most likely) or warmer climates.
gwb, can you help me figure out what jem is saying here? The funny thing is that jerm actually believes in man made global warming. Don't you jerm? "No as a person who believes we should conserve the environment intelligent... I am against expanding nuclear power until we find a way to deal with the waste" It seems he is answering a question about nuclear power, which was not asked. I wonder if he has finally gone off the deep end? jem? Can you help us here? Are you saying that man has not caused global warming?
are you being a moron or a troll. For a few years now I have told you: There is no proof we have warmed outside of natural variation There is no proof man made CO2 is causing warming - for all we know adding man made co2 could be causing clouds which reflect the suns energy back out. At times I have also said cutting down rain forests and planting corps and the fact there are now billions of us might have an impact on the overall climate.... but we really do not know whether we are warming outside natural variation. So its possible the earth adjusts to our presence. We have a very dynamic environment. So, until we know more I suggest we channel a good deal of the billions spent into cleaning up the oceans and now do to recent news... nuclear waste.
Energy Clobbers Climate in Gallup Poll of Americans' Worries - See more at: http://cnsnews.com/mrctv-blog/matt-...p-poll-americans-worries#sthash.hYc8Am3D.dpuf It seems like the Democratic slumber party last Monday about climate change was a waste of time as most Americans don't really care about the issue, according to a new Gallup poll. Then again, politicians wasting time is a hallmark characteristic of Washington D.C. Additionally, access to affordable energy is more of a top priority for Americans than tackling climate change. More than two-thirds (67%) say they worry about the availability/affordability of energy, while less than half (49%) worry about climate change. Out of 15 issues, only 24% of Americans care a great deal about climate change, with an additional 25% caring about it a fair amount. Whereas, access to energy was greatly on the minds of 37% Americans, with another 30% saying they cared a fair amount. In all, 67% of Americans care more about keeping their homes heated and lit at an affordable rate, than combating climate change (49%)...
You still have not answered. Wow, you should be a politician. You can't just answer yes or no can you? Typical shifty slimy lawyer stuff. So then you do not believe in man caused global warming? Yes or no. Very simple question. Yes or no. Don't expound, inflate, distract or qualify. Yes or no. In your opinion, has man caused global warming? Yes or no. Simple question.
Your are not too fast on the uptake... there is an agnostic position... its not just yes or no. I will spell it out, again. No one knows. I am an agnostic as to CO2. I can't say co2 warms, I can say it cools, I can't say it does nothing..... We can say even less about man made co2. because science does not know its net effect in our dynamic environment. And yes, I do believe we should conserve our environment, intelligently. I prefer tax breaks to taxes.
