re: #196 Cineaste

So I did read, a site designed and supported by one side only.

Still on the fence, and here is why:

The media hyped it then, am I to think there is no hype now?

were those other papers squashed somhow? I noticed that the claim at that point was that “…we do not have a good quantitative understanding of our climate machine and what determines its course. Without the fundamental understanding, it does not seem possible to predict climate…”

But in thirty years: “there is now strong evidence that significant global warming is occurring… It is likely that most of the warming in recent decades can be attributed to human activities… The scientific understanding of climate change is now sufficiently clear to justify nations taking prompt action.”

I do my part to keep the world clean, I conserve fuel, I do not litter, I recycle when it makes sense, and I am a good steward of this planet.

Not becuase of some hype, but becuase it is the right thing to do. And in another few billion years, if humans are still on the planet, maybe thay can chuckle about this conversation.
