have in common?

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. |

What many are against is reactionary, knee-jerk over-responses to "problems" that doesn't exist in the qualified opinion of many experts. The calls to action often cause more problems than the initial concern. Eisboch |

My guess is that many on the right who are protesting the loudest simply don't want anything to interfere with their "enjoyment" even if it means further despoiling of the environment. |

Putting aside "climate change", there are quite a few who are against protecting the environment if it costs them a dime. There was a recent executive order allowing mine tailings to pollute streams. There is no disputing the pollution is real, and damaging, yet ... |

You have a right to your guess. Doesn't mean you are correct though. The thing that gets me about these highly controversial and debatable subjects is that often those on the "left" become as zealous in pushing their beliefs as they accuse the "right" of being uncaring. The zealousness is often supported with insults, name-calling and general bashing of anyone who doesn't subscribe to the lefties' POV. As a moderate "righty", the only thing I am zealous about is finding a way to avoid our slippery slope ride towards Socialism. Eisboch |

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. -- "Never fight an inanimate object." P.J. O'Rourke |

I just want to know if the 7 foot piles of white crap piled up all over my yard is due to weather or climate change. Eisboch |
