Yep, adaption is the first and foremost solution to any problem that can not be properly identified. You adapt and while doing so you continue to study to understand what the problem is and even if there is a plausible solution to it.

Implementing a solution when the problem is not understood is ignorant and foolish.

I find it comforting to take five minutes of my day, and devote that time to Al Gore's soothing voice.

Global Warming voters should vote for the most pro-prosperity candidate. Wealth is what enables us to adapt to climate change, which has been happening for more than four billion years. Since most of the official "global warmists" are wanting to destroy the economy, you should cross them off your list first.

Seriously.

exactly. what we have to understand is that mans contribution to global climate change is akin to taking a bathtub full of water, dumping it into the ocean, and then claiming that man caused the ocean levels to rise.

Global warming... Created by Maurice Strong, with ties to the UN and the World Conservation Bank, to create a world currency based on carbon credits. Thank God Al Gore never made it to the White House.

Hmmm, Global Whatever pushers like JasonF and ford beebe sure get quiet once you start asking them to prove their assertions, don't they?

Where did they go?

Look ... peer reviewed science is CONSENSUS science. Nothing more.

Geocentric Earth was at one point consensus science, and Galileo was a heretic.

What makes you think we can have any effect on it?

Even if we do that feel-good thing, "fight"?
