I didn't even watch it because its really just got down to two camps.
Those that are willing to gamble with our grand kids future and those that are not.
No one wins if the denialists are wrong where as if the scientists are wrong the worst thing that can happen is that we have weaned ourselves off our addiction to fossil fuels and created an economy reliant on clean renewables instead of being slaves to the oil and coal cartels.
Sooo..what plan do the denialists have if they are wrong?
Well, I don't fit into either camp as I'm an AGW
sceptic.
Not a denialist, and not an AGW disciple.
However, nobody (well, certainly not me) is stopping you from weaning us off the addiction to fossil fuels and creating an economy reliant on clean renewables. Knock yourselves out.
Just stop the fear mongering.
The "grand kids' future" thing is
really getting old. By being a sceptic I'm not endangering
anyone. To suggest otherwise is just ridiculous. Build your wind farms. Put solar panels on your roof. I'm not about to stop you. I applaud you for it.
The AGW hypothesis is dubious (yes, it's my word of the day), but I have no objection to alternative fuel sources. Just stop with the holier than thou attitude.
OK, so as I understand it basically you're on board with the climate change program but you want some of the language moderated. Fair enough. But why would you support those who
want to stop windfarms, solar panels, etc? Just look at this thread - seems longloser believes millions will die if we go to alternative energy. Do you support that notion? I don't see you speaking up against such excesses in that language.
