Let me first say that I am all about being a good steward of the earth, I believe in it, and I practice it.
With that said, let me say that I like to refer to “Global Warming” as “The Sky Is Falling” syndrome.
There is insufficient data to prove with any statistical significance or reasonable confidence that the “global warming” theory is true. If you don’t have sufficient data, how do you know that this “global warming” is not part of the natural variation that occurs?
It’s like getting up every morning and noticing that the temperature is rising throughout the day, and saying “we’re in trouble, if the temperature continues to rise like this, it will be 150 degrees by the end of the night, and even worse by tomorrow morning”, not understanding that this is part of the natural daily cycle. And that’s what “global warming” is saying, it is not looking at the larger picture of how the earth’s temperatures fluctuate naturally over time. Unfortunately, we don’t have enough reliable and accurate historical data on which to rely.
The earth is much more resilient than it is given credit for, just as Don’s spot-on post stated. I find it humorous when a natural even occurs and people try to put things back to the way they were. Or when people to try to prevent natural changes in the earth from occurring. The earth changes, and it will continue to do so, and trying to stop those changes will have negative impacts over time.
Unfortunately the first liar to the podium wins. But I will only draw conclusions based on data, not on feelings, assumptions, or on these types of loose theories thought up by nut jobs who don’t have a clue, and don’t use the brain God gave them.
Peace & MuchLove
