I never said I didn't understand the "weight" of the subject of fossil fuels in this whole scenario and this leaves me uncertain about who should read more widely.
The President, while campaigning, said costs would effectively “bankrupt” the coal industry. Huh?
This is a grossly inflated issue brought about for no other reason than to alarm and frighten, where, accordingly, anyone who has the audacity to flip on a light switch will be forced to pay higher energy bills.
Cap and trade is insane. Why would we add an additional tax to our own energy bill. Why would we? Because there are a few who will be very rich? Or because the United Nations shouts ‘climate crisis’, in concert with Al Gore. The United Nations is a toothless and political organization filled with intrigue and attempted power grabbing. Now the U.N. wants to collect a global tax? Who will monitor and manage this? Fairly.
What folks like Al Gore and fear mongers, et al, are doing is the equivalent of a 16th century magician charging folks to see him blank out the Sun, when he knew an eclipse was coming ...sic....We could stop all man-caused CO2 emissions tomorrow, and little would change. The climate would continue it’s natural cycles, ie warming, cooling, etc... which the fear mongers deny.
Many reputable and learned scientists have concluded that CO2 is not causing global warming, and man's effect on it is small. So, the sky is not really falling tomorrow, but I am sure you would not read any of those who question those motives.
Consider also, the cause of global warming/cooling (and it does both, and has for centuries) is mostly natural since we are still not able to control the sun.
You may have the last word for I am out for the evening.
