Blah, blah, blah, blah...it really wouldn't matter if the science was incontrivertable (which is pretty much the case). There are *HUGE* *HUGE* industries out there paying billions of dollars to confuse the issue. On the flip side, there a millions upon millions of people who grasp onto any of the rogue naysayers, even the ones financed by oil and gas, even when the bulk of the evidence is against them... simply because they enjoy a high standard of life BECAUSE we are ignoring Kyoto.
After I left "An Inconvenient Truth" I stopped watching my power consumption. Why bother? The human species will continue to lie to itself until it is too late. It really is naive to believe otherwise. We are a stupid, stupid species and deserve whatever is coming to us.
But the s*** isn't going to hit the fan for another 50, maybe 100. We'll be long gone or nearing the end of our run. It's our children and our children's children that will have to deal with the issue. The naysayers causing the problem will never have to pay for their crimes. Just the way the world works. There really is no use fighting against this tide, just ride the wave and see where it takes us.
