Environment - June 2007

I mean... There are many proof that show that global warming is real and is gonna happen if we don't take action... And why I do some people say that Al Gore's movie: "An inconvenient truth" sucks, when the only think that he's telling is the truth?

"Jim Hansen, a climate change expert at the Goddard Institute for Space Studies, takes issue with NASA administrator Michael Griffin's views on global warming during an interview with Madeleine Brand. Griffin told NPR's Morning Edition that he isn't sure global warming is a problem we must tackle, a view Hansen says is "remarkably uninformed."

Shouldn't a NASA administrator be reasonably informed? I mean, essentially everyone who accepts the reality of global warming knows that it's a problem we have to tackle. How did this guy become a NASA administrator, anyway? Does anyone know who appointed him?

A number of global warming skeptics allege that global warming is a "billion-dollar industry" and exhort me to "follow the money". I can see quite clearly that Exxon-Mobil has posted record-breaking profits in the last few quarters, but what companies are making billions off fears of climate change?

i think any of us could feign concern if every other person we met wanted to hand over a good chunk of their paycheck to us to save the world,..no matter how unfounded, rediculous and spurious the cause were..this whole thing is about a re-distribution of wealth. take from the rich, give to the poor...just like robin hood..and even if found out and prooved wrong, at least your heart was in the right place, ...just like robin hood.

There is conclusive evidence that the earth was warmer 1000 years ago than today. And yet many people fervently believe that global warming is entirely man made. Additionally, no global climate cataclism occurred back then. Millions of people did not die of coastal flooding. Species were not wiped out. Life went on. Our biggest problem was man's oppression of man back then as it is today.

So why the obsession with global warming? Is it governments and "intelligencia" playing on the ignorance of the masses? Or are the masses sufficiently ignorant to do it on their own?

Is the obsession with global warming a result of stupidity or manipulation? Is is just some red herring that is thrown our way to keep everyone in lock step? Governments like to have an enemy of the people to deflect attention away from their own incompetence. Saddam Hussein, for instance. Is global warming a clever version of this old game?
