Global Warmings Puts Reefs in Peril
"Bill McKee" wrote in message ink.net... "Doug Kanter" wrote in message ... "Bill McKee" wrote in message ink.net... What if they're right? Or, more important, is is possible for there to be ANY evidence that would convince you? One major volcanic eruption spews more ozone depleting chemicals in a week than mankind does in years. When Krakatoa erupted in 1883, upper Midwesterners almost starved that year. Between the ash and chemicals, it induced a volcano winter. Was snow in the Midwest in July and the corn crop failed. We are seeing more solar activity. This does not count? maybe it is man and all the political spewing that is contaminating the air and causing the hot air warming. These same "Scientists" were predicting a mini-iceage circa 1970. Maybe ice age grant money dried up. As to Kyoto. Would only hamper the US. France, being 80% nuclear at the time, was posice to make a killing selling electric power. China, could still go along, burning excess amounts of dirty coal, and no penalty, as they are a "Backwards" country. China is the biggest cause of mercury in tuna and other pelegic fish. All that coal burning release of mercury has to go somewhere, and that is out over the Pacific. That wasn't the question. I asked you if it is possible for anyone to come up with evidence which would convince you that our contribution is worth controlling. If you find it difficult to answer that for some reason, then tell me if this comes close to matching your view: "There's not a chance in hell that I'd believe anyone on this subject, no matter how perfect their research might be. Period. End of story, and I'm not listening any more". You are going to have to have hard evidence. Not the suppositions of the bunch from Kyoto. Most of those were Psychologists, etc. Not the hard sciences. Aren't these the same group that was touting coming ice age in 1970? My background and degree is in engineering. We require more than some statement to the effect, we require proof. And proof has not been shown. Why did we have Global Warming and cooling periods over the last 1,000,000+ years? Atlantis use to much CFC's? OK. I just wanted to be sure you weren't using another scientific theory I've heard around here, from NOYB, if I recall. It goes something this: "Any attempt to improve a coal burning power plant's emission levels will have a severe impact on the dividend I receive from the 1000 shares I own in that utility". That excuse justifies a firing squad. |
