CLIMATE: Same ol' naysayers

Here we go again! The right wing Michelle Bachmann followers are out in force backing fellow radical Cliff Harris. I could see the letters denouncing Global Climate Change from miles away. I don’t really have the words to fully explain the fallacy of your arguments with a 250-word limit but I’ll give it a shot.

First the Hollingsworth “reasonable” CO2-is-not-a-pollutant believer. History does NOT show that CO2 has been higher in history. 400PPM is higher than it has been in 3 million years, and CO2 is increasing 75 faster than before the Industrial Age.

The Miller wing touts Dr. Thomas Sowell, a right-wing hack who has no education in Climate Science.

I guess that according to Mr. Russell, 98 percent of all the world’s scientists are liberal Democrats. Now that’s a hoot. The “Ice Age” believers of the 1970s were never the vast majority of climate scientists in the world.

I find it interesting that Cliff denies climate change, at least the man-made kind, yet states WIDE WEATHER EXTREMES are proving fatal to many birds. The consensus (98 percent) of the scientific community is that CO2 is indeed a serious problem.

Glen Russell asked if I believed Cliff Harris or Al Gore? Well Glen, I don’t think Cliff Harris really believes Cliff Harris. His ideological/political views won’t let him see the truth he was trained to see.

You are all making political statements, not arguments backed up with science. Your “experts” are nothing more than political talking heads full of hot air.

I’ll go with the 98 percent.
