The climate has been changing in temps since they've been studying it way before auto and mill emissions. I think it's cyclical. In fact, it has to be. The earth goes through natural cycles on its own. And we're going through one now.
Go read some of Joe Bastardis articles on how tornados are actually caused. It isn't global warming. He also cites how we've had this same warming and cooling phenomenon before, during the middle ages and wait for it - the ice age.
Also look up a research paper that was published 2 years ago titled "a chronological listing of weather events. Looking at trends between 1AD and 1900AD, extreme weather events are actually down since the industrial age.
You'll also find there is a lot of money behind the man made climate change myth. Seriously, go look this stuff up.
So if we are experiencing a phenomenon similar to the Ice Age, should it not be addressed? Should we not try to prevent it from decimating human existence? No, it won't come to that in our lifetime, but at the rate in which the climate is changing, it could affect your grandchildren.
What happened to the old conservative approach of "Back in my day, we had a clear Summer from June through August. Fall weather from September through November. Winter from December through February, and Spring from March through May. That's the way it was, and that's the way it should be." If you perceive a War on Christmas, and a War on Moral Values on television, then why not look at this like the War on Traditional Weather Patterns?
Look, I'm not even arguing that it is man made.
Just that it is happening. And if we
can do something about it, then we should. In my opinion, things like lowering the cost of efficient energy sources, and letting the free market bare it out is the way to go about it. If recycling helps, incentive people to recycle monetarily. Not bureaucratically shove regulations down people's throats. I even agree that the Al Goreian hysteria is far overblown. But we can't even have that discussion until we can all agree that it's a real phenomenon that is really happening, and it is problematic.
