Quoted from BuckStrider


Long live the king?

If it's British, it must be true.



We don't need no stinkin' SCIENCE!


The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

we don't need science to tell us that YES there is climate change, the future is coming, just ask the dinosaurs....

but greenhouse gases are a small portion of that equation......because TIME IS MOVING FORWARD AND WILL STEAMROLL OVER US
LONG BEFORE we affect anything.....

we have a better chance at ruining our clean water supply with the chemicals of our innovation and dehydrating to death...and that wouldn't
take long....except for the chubby people, they tend to linger longer.....


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

Yes, There Is a Scientific Consensus

The most important thing to understand about the scientific consensus that human activities are causing the earth to warm is that
it isn’t a result of peer pressure or someone policing scientists’ opinions. It results from the scientific method.

“Scientists are very interested in theories that other factors may be causing climate change,” says John Abraham. “The contrarians
put forward ideas and the consensus scientists investigate them honestly and find that they don’t withstand scientific scrutiny. This
happens all the time. That’s how science works. In fact, showing that these guys are wrong makes the science better.”
A scientific consensus emerges when the weight of evidence for a proposition becomes so great that serious researchers stop arguing
about it among themselves. They then move on to study and debate other questions. There’s quite a bit of scientific debate about lots
of different aspects of climate change, but the question of whether humans are causing the planet to warm isn’t one of them.

There have been three studies, using different methodologies, that have shown that almost all working climate scientists — 97 percent
— accept the consensus view.

But what if those three percent who reportedly reject the consensus are like Galileo, who challenged the 16th century view that the sun
revolved around the Earth? John Abraham and five of his colleagues published a study earlier this year which found that studies authored
by climate contrarians “were often found to be unsubstantiated by the data,” resulting in “criticisms, corrections, and in some cases,
resignation of editors.” They add: “the same fate has not befallen the prominent consensus studies.”

But that hasn’t prevented climate deniers from compiling long lists of people they claim to be dissenting climatologists. The most prominent
of these was the Oregon Petition, which was organized by a chemist named Art Robinson, founder of a group called the Oregon Institute
of Science and Medicine (OISM), which also markets a home-schooling kit for “parents concerned about socialism in the public schools.”

The petition was supposedly signed by “31,000 American scientists” who opposed the consensus “entirely on scientific grounds published
in peer reviewed journals.” But in fact, anyone could sign on, and according to Michael Mann, director of Penn State’s Earth System Science
Center, the list ultimately included the Spice Girls and several Star Wars characters.

More recently, climate change denier Marc Morano, who in the past has worked for both Rush Limbaugh and Sen. James “Climate Change Is
A Hoax” Inhofe (R-OK), compiled a smaller list that he says is proof that the consensus is “falling apart.”

Barry Bickmore, “a geochemistry professor at Brigham Young University, an active Mormon, and an active Republican,” looked at a sample of
the names on Morano’s list and found mechanical engineers, a biochemist and a metallurgist working for US Magnesium, but no working
climate scientists who had published in peer-reviewed journals.

philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

I wonder if there is any public figure anywhere in the world that you are not negative about
or cannot find fault with.

Yup...Moyers...The guy that helped sell America's entrance and escalation in Vietnam.  Not to mention his role in using the FBI to identify homosexuals in the Johnson Administration.  Now instead of finding and calling out homosexuals, he's identifying and calling out "climate deniers".  Great guy!  I really trust his judgement.  So do 58k other Americans.
