Quote:But the question of whether we can afford to do anything about it is not relevant to the question of whether it is happening.   In other words, you can't say it's not happening just because you don't want to do anything about it.  

 

Personally, I am deeply skeptical as to whether we can do anything about it.   I am not so skeptical about whether it is happening.  

 

I'm skeptical that mankind is the source of any climate change that may be occurring other than the buzzing of large swaths of foliage in other countries that would otherwise be absorbing additional Co2. We could probably do something about that if we (the USA) wanted to.

 

But for these people to say "zero Co2 emissions by 2100" means that all you mouth breathers have to stop exhaling. Which is why population reduction is at the heart of the climate change movement, GCM is just another means for them to insist that we stop breeding and start euthanising.
