The best part is that when the U.S. is a dustbowl, republicans will still be saying there's no proof humans had any impact, democrats will say, "Told you so.", scientists still won't agree, and Canada will have a lot more farmland.

I'm more concerned about the treatment of scientists than global warming. It seems that legitimate scientists are being treated as if they are Hitler's children. We are returning to an age of persecution against scientists, like Galileo. Scientific thought shouldn't be suppressed, especially by politicians and their fanboys on both sides of the issue.

If global warming is happening because of humans, pollution will need to be reduced. If global warming isn't happening because of humans, pollution will still need to be reduced. People can argue any way, but the actions that must be taken will be the same. However, people will argue on how to achieve that outcome.


We're living in an age where most of the chemicals included in children's science kits 10 years ago are now considered illegal by our government. Your concern is duly noted :(

He goes on to say that global temperatures do correlate to solar patterns and that that evidence carries more weight than CO2.

Yes, and this is correct. Whats your point? The current temperatures don't correlate to any solar patterns that we know of, so it really is irrelevant whether past temperature rises did or didn't.

Go back and read my whole post again.
The person I quoted was taking statements out of context. I was correcting him.

You were quoting me :p
