I...Global climate change is extremely complicated. It is pretty well agreed between climate scientists that the world IS warming. It is also pretty well agreed that burning fossil fuel contributes to the warming of the earth. What is really up in the air is how much of a role does burning fossil fuel contribute to global warming? Scientists don't seem to be able to agree on this part of the discussion. <BR/>It can only be healthy for our culture to move away from fossil fuel though, the price will continue to go up (not so good for our economy), it pollutes our air, and it exports a lot of our wealth to other nations (a couple of them I would prefer not to give any extra money).<BR/>-ErinGreenSilexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235274064229934363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264704735787512931.post-49279148621330786482009-03-04T14:31:00.000-04:302009-03-04T14:31:00.000-04:30I have no problem acknowledging that human activit...I have no problem acknowledging that human activity may be contributing to global warming.<BR/><BR/>But I remain unconvinced.<BR/><BR/>I'd have to say <A HREF="http://markshea.blogspot.com/search?q=global+warming" REL="nofollow">I'm with Mark Shea on this one</A>:<BR/><BR/><I>When you are a layman like me approaching a quarrel among High Priests about the arcana of the inmost workings of their cultus, you pretty much have to wait around until the quarrel has settled. Rushing off to join the partisans of one party when you have no more idea than a Hottentot what they are talking about nor what data they base their dogmas on is, well, rash. Which is why I am and remain a Global Warming agnostic who is, if anything, slightly inclined to disbelieve simply because the Chattering Classes, who are so desperately wrong about virtually everything they dogmatize about, have been utterly dogmatic here. But even stopped clocks are right twice a day. So I will wait until the high priest conclude their quarrel and not let the earth cultists in the media and low demagogues like Al Gore sway me either.</I>John Jansenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08241558776415884637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264704735787512931.post-45843854408132374672009-03-04T12:58:00.000-04:302009-03-04T12:58:00.000-04:30One would think that, being pro-children and all, ...One would think that, being pro-children and all, us Catholics would feel universal concern over the state we are leaving the earth in for our kids.<BR/><BR/>I sure am!solarpowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02974321926426768382noreply@blogger.com
