Deny the "politically correct" orthodoxy on this subject, you mean.

This! ^^^. Exactly!

They tried in the early 1970's to convince us the Earth was going to freeze over due to Man's activity. Didn't work, nothing happened. Then in the 2000's they tried to convince us the Earth would get so hot, that New York City would be under water ten years ago. Didn't work, nothing happened.

Now they are trying to say that whenever the WEATHER changes hot, or cold for any comparatively very small, insignificant period of time that it is Man's fault, and the fix? More income, and wealth distribution going to BIG GOVERNMENT, and a decrease in the standard of living and quality of life for the poor, and middle income earner. Yet Al Gore will still be flying around in private jets spewing pollution.

I believe that mankind's actions have an affect on climate change, to believe otherwise is I think a bit naïve.

What do you base that on? The climate has changed drastically prior to Man, and prior to Man's industrialization. How can you tell what part of the natural change in climate is Man, and what is nature? Your government has convinced you that you need to pay an additional climate change tax based on your energy usage. Where is that money going? How is it helping the climate?

All true to some extent, but irrelevant to the actual question of what is happening and what we should do about it. Yes, there are lots of idiots on the left exaggerating and promoting their agendas, but why limit your thinking on the subject to reaction?

You are so right Pilot! My father is a well known Geophysicist in his industry and across the board everyone he knows thinks Man Made climate change is crap. I believe them over any government paid science report.

I’m all for recycling and helping clean the environment but there’s too much greed out there regarding this topic. People are very naive to think this won’t be used as a tax or cash cow. Just look at all the billions Obama gave away to Green Energy companies! Are any of them still in business?
