But how can the enviros be wrong about the cause Global Warming?

Question

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,,24036736-17803,00.html

Isn't it b/c they won't listen to reason?

Answer 1

Contrast the Australian with a more left wing outlet like the Age or the ABC or the BBC.  It's like they live on a different planet.  I think believers brains must be wired up differently to skeptics.  

Maybe it feels good and right to be outraged at the greedy corporations poisoning the Earth for their own selfish ends.

Answer 2

indeed, when the evidence is so overwhelming?

the chap sounding off in your link is a lone voice. there are a lot more ozzies that are extremely worried about the unprecedented 7 year drought in the murray darling basin;

Answer 3

“Follow the money”, the environmentalists who back the man made causes theory for “Climate Change” get big money backing for research. In addition, it all fits into the big bad business and the capitalist model is evil model favored by the liberal media and elitist left. The biggest voice, Al Gore, personally profits from the carbon trade (seriously, look it up), while maintaining a carbon footprint some 200x the average household.

It's not real science, but it is real politics and leftist agenda at work.

Answer 4

Because there's no funding in saying it isn't real.  

From the link: "Soon government and the scientific community were working together and lots of science research jobs were created. We scientists had political support, the ear of government, big budgets, and we felt fairly important and useful (well, I did anyway). It was great. We were working to save the planet."

It's an excellent article from a guy who once promoted manmade global warming but now denies that it's real.  Unfortunately, there are still too many governments giving money away to fund it, as if throwing money at it can make it real.

Answer 5

It is a scam to make money by Gore. Look at the green house gas it is just not there. The plants have taken care of the CO2 . Plants need CO2 as much as U do oxygen.

The temperature averaging is from the old city from uncalibrated thermometers records . This old data could be slanted which ever direction U want. Example; There are more warm cities than cold.  

Answer 6

they're right but some people refuse to believe to avoid world wide panick attacks.

Answer 7

Have you ever been to a southern Baptist summer camp meeting and watched the people there swaying to the words of the h**l fire and damnation preacher. One of the core components of any form of evangelism is faith by the believers and calling those who refuse to believe on faith alone heretics and sinners. I watched the two movies Kate Blanchett did on Elizabeth Regina over the weekend and it brought home to me again all the pain and suffering that has been caused by a few greedy people using some form of FAITH to manipulate and control a population.

When you compare Catholicism and Anglicanism it is amazing just how much the same they are. In fact the only real core difference between them is that in the Anglican Church women can be active ministers and all the clergy are free to marry if they wish. This is as it was in the Catholic Church before Constantine integrated it with the roman pagan church that required all clergy to be celibate. And for this silly little thing millions of English and other died over the period of a hundred or so years. The AGW pogrom is just as silly as that and will probably cause as much social damage to nations even if not hopefully the deaths that various inquisitions brought about years ago. But then from the tone of some it might come to another inquisition with the adherents torturing and killing those who deny the true faith.

Answer 8

So let me get this straight - you're concluding that tens of thousands of climate scientists and hundreds of millions of 'enviros' are wrong based on an article on an Australian newspaper website written by an electrical engineer?

Shockingly, he's wrong.

Answer 9

yes, but that is a symptom of their real problem.

the real problem is demonstrated by bios on answers, such as dana's.

Answer 10

You mean how can scientists be wrong.

"While Evans background does show that he has a PhD in electrical engineering"

I'm happy to see you take your climate science from someone with an electrical engineering background. They are supremely qualified compared to their PhD colleagues in climate science.

Denialism from some is almost comedic.

Answer 11

Because like any other religious cult they will never admit their faith is flawed. I mean big oil has poured some serious money into this AGW thing and then they have been supporting all or at least a striking majority of democrat politicians for the last 30 years. Stop and think they have poured at least 300 million into Obama alone this year and how much more are they going to invest in him and some other key democrats to keep Carter’s presidential orders from being canceled. Bush signed of on canceling the off shore drilling ban of Carter’s and look at how Pelosi and some others are fighting to keep it from coming up for vote to protect the oil company money that keeps them in office.

Answer 12

They're deliberately lying. They know better.

Answer 13

Capitalism is built on mass consumerism, it would collapse if we all choose the 'Green life', and since the Capitalists seem to have a hand in all that is 'wrong' with the world then what can we expect?

Answer 14

Ok, so you dont beleive in global warming.....

Do you beleive that clean water to drink is a basic neccesity for survival?

The Tx fish & game says that ALL tx waters are polluted to the point that it is not safe to eat the fish (you can eat a certain # per month without harm-yeah right) from any body of water! There were 2 kids that died in the past year from meningitis after exposure to lake waters. How can I ignore that and say that it's ok to not do anything about it?

So what if they are wrong about "global warming"? Does that make everything else go away? I don't think so.

Be careful what you beleive in that Hollywood feeds you, In case you didn't know, they are really good at twisting the history to sell more tickets ...and don't judge the path by the man who walks it. Evil comes in many forms...and one is when a good man stands by and does nothing.
