Thread Name: BS: US Politics and Global Warming
Subject: RE: BS: US Politics and Global Warming
Pied Piper, you are in real serious trouble. You appear to have titivated the appetites of the predators!You will be smothered by words of wisdom. Just look at the MG stuff----
A news item on CNN today [Monday] reported that there was evidence of a looming tragedy due to the melting of the polar icecap, and that this was attributable to global warming. The inevitable editorialising on Blitzer's own channel brought the comment from the bright blonde newscaster that the news wasn't all bad, as it was thought that gas and oilfields in Northern Russia might well become exploitable. As all the posters on this thread so far know, this is typical of attitudes found all the way to the top--and not only in the U.S. The wilfully blind, the greedy, and the plain stupid ones deny the existence of the stone wall ahead. The rest are coming close to despair.
