Just to be clear:
I am NOT pro-pollution. I am very much in favor of cleaning up our skies as well as our oceans and rivers. I am also in favor of decreasing the amount of pollution that continues to be produced.
However, CO2 is NOT a pollutant. It is a naturally occurring trace element in our atmosphere. It is "plant food" and is necessary to all forms of life, human and otherwise.
I am not "in bed" with the pollution producers anymore than are those who claim to be environmentalists. Just like me, so-called environmentalists drive cars, fly in planes, consume products that have been packaged in plastic, and take advantage of the benefits that citizens of an OIL consuming nation, such as the USA, enjoy. These benefits include CONSUMING FOOD everyday that has arrived at their neighborhood grocer via gas guzzling TRUCKS.
I have yet to see a single "environmentalist" offer a better solution to food distribution than the one we now employ: TRUCKING. Sure, they are great at criticizing and pointing out problems, but they are extremely weak when it comes to finding solutions. Always ready to point the finger of blame at others and always waiting for others to take the first step to solve the problems, the survival of these mindless idiots depends upon the very institutions that they so readily throw under the bus.
My suggestion? Offer solutions--better solutions than what we now have--along with your criticism.
Solve the pollution problem. It is real. For sure. Don't waste time on something that is IMPOSSIBLE to predict.
In the meantime, keep your eye on your wallet. Those who would "save the planet" from MMGW would also pick your pocket if you let them.
