You are sooooooo unconvincing. What I cannot figure out is what is
motivating the righties to fight so hard against ways to lessen man's
impact on the environment.

It's not a question of lessing the impact or cleaning the air or
pollution control. I'm not against any of that - in fact I'm pro
environment and when I was Vice-Chairman of the town's Planning and
Zoning board and Chairman of the Conservation Commission, I was a
royal pain-in-the-ass to developers. I wasn't anti-development
either, but I made sure they had their ducks in a row and that the
impact to the local eco systems were either zero or minimalized.

It's a question of pawning off bogus science as "settled". It's a
giant trade system built to benefit a few - including Al Gore who has
made millions trading carbon credits based on dubious statistical
methodology which cheerfully ignores historical trends plus solar
science while supporting flat out statistical lying and the
ostrasizing scientists who dare question the "settled" science.

The gist of the articles, which you obviously didn't read, is that
good science is posing questions and poking/prodding data to find
flaws, questions assumptions and test theories. Climate change
science, as currently practiced, isn't good science.

Are there changes in climate - sure there are. The question is what
is causing it and the more closely the "settled science" is examined,
it's becoming more evident that it's base assumption of
anthropomorphic changes made by man are false.

A good example is the recent contretemps over the "cow" tax - that cow
farts area major component of "global warming".

Here's a fact for you - there were more buffalo running around the
Great Plains of the US than the entire dairy and beef industry herds
currently in production. Buffalos fart too.

Think about it instead of blaming "righties" for not being politically
correct.
