I can relate to what Hoz is saying ...
I'm pro-Earth, anti-pollution, but feel it necessary to put a practical bent on things and make it realistic.
I recycle everything I can, I buy green products like the light bulbs, and pay attention to everything I can about things that we can do to conserve.
But I'm not for crippling an economy over unrealistic goals set in order to appease a massive political front that seems to be out of control. When you get people shouted down as alike to Holocaust deniers, or people suggesting that meteorologists that don't agree with global warming be decertified I get nervous.
Those that much in the right shouldn't be that worried about opposition, and yet they are.
I do think Al Gore is a joke, and a charlatan, but then I thought that before the guy got into his latest kick on saving the planet. However I do see that many reputable scientists with less to gain economically have a deep passion with this subject and they need to be heard.
But not without debate and opposition, that's the opposite of science isn't it?
