Don’t Believe the Hype

       I am not anti-environment.  I believe its sound policy to invest in technology that cuts pollution and waste.  No one likes smog, repertory problems, dirty oceans, and wasted energy.  However, I am deathly afraid of the global warming.  I am not so much afraid that the earth is going to combust and we will cease to sustain life, rather I am afraid of a society that refuses civil debate, especially scientific debate. 

          This is what happened with the debate — or lack there of — about global warming.  The open-minded Left along with their Gestapo muscle, the main stream media, refuse any to allow any civil discussion on the issue.  If you question the reality of global warming, the Left labels you a pariah and a kook.  Meanwhile, there are real questions concerning whether CO2 emissions causes global warming.         Don’t believe me?  Then ask the founder of the Weather Channel, John Coleman, or the grandfather of global warming and mentor to Al Gore, Roger Revelle.  Sadly, Professor Revelle passed away a few years back but not before questioning his own findings on the reality of global warming and warning lawmakers to proceed with caution when drafting policy addressing carbon emissions.        

                I have no idea whether Professor Revelle is correct or whether global warming is real.  That is not the point.  What scares me is the extinction of even the notion of debate on the subject.   But then again the lack of debate is what the Left wants, as reasoned debate quells irrational arguments.
