So what if every car got 60 mpg …? That would put a dent in Co2.

What if instead of approving that $100 billion in trying to hang on to an oil supply in Iraq, we invested that money in 80% rebates to buyers of a government order to US carmakers to build Prius knockoffs.

Apparently only 17 million new cars were sold last year to us 300 million people. Say if this government order was for 20 million 60 mpg cars a year for the next ten years, we’d replace every vehicle on the road I think.

Now is the time for massive effective investment collectively by our government in Co2 reduction.

For WWII we built an entire airforce in 3 yrs from nothing. We could fix this.

A must read.

“What do they know? its just those fool astronomers!”

There is nothing anti-American, or anti business about facing up to scientific facts. Heres some:

1. All previous natural (non-manmade) warmings or coolings took place veeeeeeeeeeryyyyy slowly, over thousands or millions of years not within a couple decades like this one.

2. The ice cores show that it is 650,000 years since Co2 has been this high.

3. That there are also natural causes to raise Co2, and they caused warming too, but because it was over thousands of years, it caused only gradual extinctions. And they could cause non manmade warming also in the future, over thousands of years, with gradual extinctions resulting. But the speed of the current manmade Co2 rise is unprecedented.

(The fact that there have been warmings/coolings naturally in prehistory is not an argument for allowing a rapid Co2 rise now over the next few decades, which will cause an unprecedented sudden warming with disastrous unprecedented results.)

If we don’t do something about changing the way we fuel our civilization we will burn in Hell. (Our great grandkids, that is) And it will be right on this earth.

Don’t you see insurance companies are onto whats happening. Rates are up fivefold now on the coasts. Asthma is up already from the last 30 years because of dust from the drought-caused desertification in China and Australia have doubled from global warming.

You should read foreign business news like the Financial Times to get an accurate picture http://www.ft.com because you are mistaken.

Theres nothing new about the science as any reader of The National Geographic will attest, its just got media attention because it is getting PRETTY DAMN NEAR the tipping point.

My grandkids are worth it. Yours are too.

You can get with the solutions. Or you can drag the rest of us down by delaying action to fix it. Your choice.

This is serious folks.

Thus, we see scientists who disagree with GW being silenced or ignored, and meteorologists who won’t board the train threatened with their jobs. This sort of totalitarian “you will obey the whims of the party” thinking has existed before. Guess where. Go ahead, take a guess.

No, funnily enough, it didn’t exist in the GOP or George W. Bush’s America. The left, projecting wildly, simply wanted you to think so. Think hard…where have you seen this before?

Put down the duckie and other Sesame Street favorites from the good old days. AnchoressClimate change? Live with it. I agree with this piece entirely, at Blue CrabBrainwashing the kiddie-poos in the UK. I knew Gore had thousands of copies of his DVD he…

Actually, engineers would be included in education, business, and social sciences. Isn’t that obvious? Apparently not.

What laws of physics are you referring to specifically? I’d like to know.
If asking questions is trolling to you, then you truly are pathetic.

And, of course, even the Pentagon takes global warming seriously. I wonder why?

You’re great (not really) at grand denial statements Gaius, but when it comes to real facts… you lose.

Your wasted time it all your own. Most especially since you don’t have a leg to stand upon.

I’m surprised you haven’t banned me from your site already.

Don’t waste my time. Go troll somewhere else.
