Thread Name: BS: Where's the Global Warming
Subject: RE: BS: Where's the Global Warming
Amos, I have posted links to various videos in which a number of scientists and professionals in the field explain their opposition to the anthropomorphic global warming theory. Just go back and find them and spend some time viewing them.
Read the link that pdq posted today.
There's all kinds of stuff out there now from scientists who dispute the theory which you favor. The only way you can not be aware of it is by willfully avoiding looking for such information or refusing to take it seriously or read it with any real attention when you find it.
If you're like most people, though, you'll just dismiss such opinions by saying, "Oh, well...he's a wingnut, and you can't trust what he says." It's a handy way of retaining an opinion you have alaready grown accustomed to and comfortable with in the face of contrary evidence from another source...and it's what most people do when confronted with contrary evidence. They just engage in the old ad-hominem attack on the messenger if all else fails.
At the end of the day (as the saying goes) most people just go on believing what they already want to believe, regardless of the evidence. This is why I don't break my back trying to change people's minds around here much of the time. It's like trying to calmly talk a cat into taking a much needed bath...hopeless! ;-D
