Atmospheric CO2 -- a different view
"Rich Hampel" wrote in message ... ON the other hand ........... Lets assume for the sake of argument that real non-politicallly influenced and objective science can be the answer of whats going on; and ......... 1. The sun is producing more energy at this particular cycle (of the big snip to make things easier to read This is simply anti-capitalism at its finest .... its so 'political' , so politically correct, etc. that noone wants to be called the emperor with no clothes. So, warming is occurring, but there's discussion about the cause. Post cause, there's an effect. There's (so far in this discussion) been an assumption by many that the effect is 'disaster', therefore action is needed to cool things down. There will be change. The degree of change will be incertain. It will almost certainly mean an increase in navigable waters (good news for sailors - lets get back OT) and less space for landlubbers (tough if you haven't got a boat; and tough for those who own sea level property, who will have to depreciate their assets as the threat becomes more obvious). Hilltops may become prime land for building. Farmers will not be 'wiped out', though that's what will happen to those who don't adapt to growing different crops - just part of normal economic change through bankruptcy. And so on. Fur coats may even go out of fashion, replaced by more rainwear. Nudity may spread (like obesity? Hmm. Hope not). Darwinism works wonders . . . those who adapt to change will survive . . . . people or businesses or governments. That'll prepare us for the day when the galaxy starts to cool . . . . or a volcanic island takes off into the stratosphere . . . . or that asteroid smashes into the earth. Don't resist change, go with the flow. JimB www.jimbaerselman.f2s.com/ Comparing (the nicer) European Cruise areas |
