Either way, global warming is probably going to be bad news.

There are several reasons in my opinion why there have been die hard
skeptics, including myself. 1) Al Gore was absolutely the wrong
spokesman for the original message. His overall lack of credibility
and borderline hysteria made him a poor messenger. 2) It is
abundantly clear that there have been many past instances of global
warming/cooling that demonstrably had nothing to do with fossil fuel
emissions.

Aren't you a die-hard skeptic because of your investments in fossil fuel?

Not at all. As a matter of fact I've always been an advocate of
alternative energy strategies because I regard it as the right thing
to do for several different reasons.

Well, that's not a far right way of thinking!

I'm in a nearly ideal climate for solar power and will probably end up
with panels on my roof one of these days as the total system cost
continues to decrease and reliability/longevity increases. Fossil
fuel is still a good investment however and I'll dedicate some
significant percentage of assets to it as long as the returns are
there. There's only so much oil in the ground and it will continue to
be valuable as a lubricant and industrial feedstock. Additionally,
natural gas could turn out to be the ultimate clean fuel as fuel cell
technology improves and diesel to gas conversion becomes more common.

And neither is that!
