Thread Name: BS: Controlling hurricanes
Subject: RE: BS: Controlling hurricanes
Global warming, as a result of all of the toxic crud humans pump into the atmosphere (of which the New World contributes more than it's share) has some excellent science behind it. Stop pumping so much chemical and particulate matter into the air and humans will be healthier and the hurricane activity may be less vigorous. But as long as Bush and his pal Rove try to find any arguments (out of the mass of arguments) that appear "weak" and trumpet them as if they are the entire program and get them killed off or weakened (the goal of the polluting industries who fund Bush and Rove) then it will keep getting worse. And people will be wasting their time finding something to coat the ocean, crossing their fingers that the "cure" isn't worse than the disease. Like introducing myxomatosis to rabbits, it was a success as far as one industrial part of the population was concerned (cattle ranchers) but probably a disaster as far as many others were concerned.

So, who is in favor of going forward with coating the oceans, instead of trying to stop the man-made pollution that is making the problem worse in the first place?
