Quote:I personally find the global warming denial a turn-off, but then I'm an Environmental Scientist....and know it is not a conspiracy as he sees it - quite the opposite....but people differ, don't they. I agree Peter but I think the global warming/not warming division is being played by both sides for various political gain. The anti warmers are funded by big oil and friends who want business as usual, and what a wonderfully profitable business it has been. On the other side bankers and finance marketers are drooling at the prospect of an Emissions Trading (ponzi) Scheme to make billions from. Meanwhile, people just want transport to go to work and visit friends and family and gas and electricity to keep warm and cook. All this can easily be provided by renewables right now but there is no lobbyists for them as there is not the super profits there is in oil and market trading. That's where the conspiracy is.
