Quote:Yeah, those eeeeeevil fossil fuels that are the safest, cheapest, and most available of all the alternatives.

 

And someone has to be the truth teller around here, lest everyone fall for the foolishness of the not so "settled" science.

Oh please. The "truth" you claim to be pushing is not even as remotely backed by evidence as the other side.  The hypocrisy is in the deniers screaming "it's not settled" and pushing this as fact of a hoax. The scientific community currently take the overwhelming evidence in favor of the theory and frames their current consensus around this. Should new evidence that can be peer reviewed arrive, this will change. In the meantime why is bad to make efforts to clean our country up?

 

Evil? No. Polluting? 100% I get it, you like your cheap oil. That's fine and good and it's not like it's going anywhere anytime soon but what wrong with wanting to want cleaner air and water? Why is the right so threatened by putting research into clean energy? The oil crowd is so short sighted and have so little concern for the future. It baffles me.
