Palin, McCain Disagree on Causes of Global Warming

A growing numbers of scientists are (1) admitting that we are getting warmer, (2) But attribute most of that warming to natural cycles of the sun.

Dr. Fred Singer, one off the pioneers of all things green, Professor Emeritus at Virginia AND George Mason, has written a great book named
"Unstoppable Global Warming Every 1500 Years." He said that it is pretty arrogant for us to think we can change Earth's climate by what we do. He does give some credit for pollution having a hand, but it is infintesimal.

 

From your article...
"Although Palin established a sub-cabinet to deal with climate change issues a year ago, she has focused on how to adapt to global warming rather than how to combat it, and she has publicly questioned scientists' near-consensus that human activity plays a role in the rising temperatures. "

I agree with this approach. Even if global warming is the result of human activities (which I don't happen to believe) the U.S. is never going to get China or India or the other real polluters to do anything to change their ways. We could cut our emissions to zero and it still would not be enough to make a difference if the rest of the world goes on polluting.

It seems to be much more practical to be adapting to the changing climate which I don't believe that we can influence anyway.

Also form your article...
"She fought the administration's listing of polar bears as threatened with extinction because of shrinking sea ice. "

Polar bears have been increasing in number. Putting them on the extinction list is purely political. It i a move to further limit our abilities to harvest our own oil resources.


So now you have my thoughts on your article...

But I have no idea why you bothered to post it.

 

Because it was anti-Palin, and it took no thought to post someone else's work.

 

Clinking on your profile and then following the link to a list of the threads which you started makes your answer laughable.

I challenge you to find two threads which you started that are either negative towards Obama or positive towards McCain.

 

I am earnestly searching to find something positive about Obama/biden, but so far I havent come up with anything. Oh, except that at least they are not Clintons...that would be worse
:laugh:

AJ

 

And yet you are comfortable with Obama and Biden? What in the world are you thinking? I think all of them are disasters, but there is a lesser disaster and a greater one. Obama and Biden are, without question, a far greater danger.

 

First off I love the fact that Palin has a sensible approach to global warming. I do wish that McCain agreed with her but I think we will have to put up with his misguided views until 2012. At least real science will have a voice in his administration.

As far as Crabtownboy’s postings, I think to be fair he has said a lot of positive things about McCain and Palin. This thread is negative against McCain but positive for Palin. His thread on Social Security highlights that McCain has a solution to save social security while Obama continues its march to failure. His thread on Todd Palin I thought was an awesome pro Palin thread, who would not want this guy as the president’s spouse.

I thought his thread on the blackberry really highlighted how much better private enterprise is than government at creating innovation. That was really a positive thread for McCain and his history over Obama’s.

Of course Crabtownboy may not have intended these threads to be positive for McCain and Palin, but the truth has a way of working its way out.

 

Uh huh.....
