This is the type of Anecdotal evidence that clinches my opinion that Global warming is a substitute religion of politicians and anti capitalists.
Smart politicians love an issue that they uuuuse to instill fear. Machiavelli taught that fear was a better motivator of loyalty than love.
Anti capitalists are naive people who have seen certain evil doings of powerful capitalists. Thus they think big government needs to come in and disarm them, allocate property, and quash individual freedom, liberty, and conflicting religion.
There is no proof or strong scientific argument for Human caused global warming. The original computer model has already been revised downward several times in predictions of the amount of expected warming. There are natural sources of CO2 on Earth, much more powerful than Man. CO2 has increased, but remains at only around 2% of our atmoshpere. Increased CO2 causes more rapid growth of plant life on land and in oceans. This in turn helps rebalance CO2 becaus plants consume it.
I am only an Engineer, not a scientist, but I think I know politics and junk science when I see them.
I think that if there were ever an honest debate between some qualified individauls who also respond to questions, we would be able to move on to some real issues.
