Inconvenient Truth? That 'pseudo' documentary is chalk full of lies and half-truths... and overinflated hyperbole. Thanks but no thanks.

I guess the increase in CO2 levels to unprecedented levels over the last 100 years is "natural"? Yeah, CO2 emissions just evaporate into thin air.... And I guess scientist are just wasting their time analyzing ice core samples taken from the artic and antartica that measures CO2 levels from the last, say, 25,000 years.... And melting glaciers and mountain icecaps and rising sea levels is a naturally occurring event....

I side with those who seek to halt GCC just on the off chance they are right.

Well then don't take the tax money from people who disagree and I'll be fine with it...

Senate Rejects Global Warming Bill

Quote:
The U.S. Senate rejected a plan Thursday to curb carbon dioxide emissions from industrial smokestacks as a source of global warming. It was the chamber's first vote in more than six years on the controversial issue of climate change.

The 55-43 vote against the measure co-sponsored by Sens. John McCain, a Republican, and Joe Lieberman, a Democrat, capped a two-day debate that the two senators described as the opening shot in what they acknowledged will be a lengthy effort to get Congress to address global warming.

Do we all get to earmark what our taxes pay for now?

If we do, I have a long list of things that I don't want my taxes to support.
