is going the way of the dodo. The problem is that there is just no evidence to support it. Yes, it has become a religious article of faith, but only the most religiously rigid hold to it now. Even now, the global warming acolytes will NOT scientifically argue it, they only preach and pontificate. If the data supported them, I would be with them. Alas…
And its death-grip will only continue to weaken. Yes, it was a wind of trendy doctrine for a while (indeed, longer than I expected), but we are now seeing the old nag start to falter.
That’s the most irritating thing about the climate change panic-mongers: they’ve never gotten anything right. A couple of years ago, someone referred to my beliefs on climate change as being different because it’s a “generational thing,” which is true. I’m from the generation that was told we were all going to freeze to death. Then we were told that overpopulation was going to make us all starve to death. Then it was the sun that was going to kill us. We’ve been told that the polar ice caps are going to melt away in five years for almost two decades now.
I guess one can only “cry WOLF!’ for so long before normal people don’t give a crap what you say…
