Just came back from snorkling in Mexico. Last time I did that (same place) was 20 years ago. The drastic difference in the coral and fish was truly depressing. We ARE killing our planet...it doesn't matter if it's from carbon emissions or other pollutants. It is more comforting to some people to ignore it and make fun of those who don't.
Nope. Its evolution remember? The stuff liberals live by? The fish just evolved and went somewhere else.

I take no quarrel with saving parts of the environment we destroy. Certainly there are many instances similar to what you mention. Have you ever seen strip mining? It's pretty horrible to the mirco-ecological system. I'm contenting that Earth is in some sort of homeostasis and we are destroying the balance. I don't think we know enough to make the statements being made about global warming. But to equate contenting politically motivated science is equal to anti-environment polluters is ignorant and playing right into the hands of those inciting alarism.

Or maybe yourself? People such as yourself snorkeling around coral causes a lot of damage. Kind of hypocritical isn't it?

So your plan is to move manufacturing from a country with EPA regulations to countries without. Sure, I can see how that will work.....

I'm glad you think that's all there is to it

Don't kid yourself, the plan is to destroy our capitalist economy.
