Never bring up religion, politics or global warming at a company party...


"We had some interesting discussions about global warming this weekend. Yet I have a friend who still rejects the science of it. What part could they disagree with?"


My Response ...

"ALL The "global warming" reports are true in one aspect, "science shapes economics."

I think it's the whole "warming" thing people enjoy debating (as sooo many do) .01% of 1% or 1.3 % equals ?

Regardless, there is inarguable data since the 1930's of industrializations influence on the environment.

No scientist could dispute mans negative impact on the environment and climate (or they should pull their library card).

However, there are MAJOR factors in regards to "individual" daily activities compared to "major" sources contributions that are generally misrepresented in data that is released by the "popular media". Skewing "global warming" information one way or another to meet alternative directives.

The facts are that the vast majority of contributing sources and solutions of pollution are not in the popular media.

A more alarming fact is that people are talking about global warming in every forum and basing their purchases and votes on "whatever" solutions the popular media is presenting. Further pushing the "fear & greed" marketing model.

Facts (Just search my blog)

- We have known what the cleanest fuels are for decades…

- We have had 75 mpg vehicles for decades…

- We could run our home "off grid" for decades…

- We could power most U.S. cities off "free" sources

So, why have we not to done so… Simple answer - People love to argue, debate and blame but few want to change or an inconvenience to their daily lives.

Global Warming programs are a "trillion" dollar industry & possibly the best political and marketing tool used in our lifetime…. Given that alone, it will be here for at least the next election ;-)

Pollution and "climate change" didn't just sneak up on us... this is the result of 100 years of industrialization we are "reactively" creating a market of "pandemic & fear" for the audiences to invest billions of dollars in.

When just the utilizing the existing "Public Service Announcement" funding could drive every American to conserve, preserve, build and purchase sustainable enough to stop ALL individual increases in "green house" emissions.

The facts are always scarier and the sustainable solutions are always easier... just neither are that popular. The simple alternatives do not drive markets or consumerism.
