I'm sure this isn't true, but . . . After all what does the U.S. Department of Energy know?

Dave, why do you hate 'Merica so much?

My favorite bit is that the people ripped for being alarmist/sky falling/chicken little/"faux scientists" for their wild predictions -- they in fact UNDER estimated the increases.

Yeah, but a Rasmussen poll of likely Republican voters says...

Were standing on one answer but the folks that make huge money off the current method just ain't ready to let go of it.

The typical right-wing dimwit has no qualms about being a dupe for corporate polluters in the Global Climate Change denial game because it was Al Gore who was the public face of the awareness movement.

If Glenn Beck had said that GCC was real... they'd accept it as gospel truth and start blamin' liberals for it instead.

Hank Straws - grasping

Hank is clearly in to the numbers game.....as he keeps hooking most of you cast after cast after cast.....

Don't you ever get tired of hooking the same old chum(p)s, Hank?

Parker did you think this was Hanks post. This
bait was mine.

"India and China are huge users of coal. Burning coal is the biggest carbon source worldwide and emissions from that jumped nearly 8 percent in 2010.

"The good news is that these economies are growing rapidly so everyone ought to be for that, right?" Reilly said Thursday. "Broader economic improvements in poor countries has been bringing living improvements to people. Doing it with increasing reliance on coal is imperiling the world."


Go tell India and China that they have to stop burning coal. I'm sure they will get right on it. Problem solved.

If I remember reading correctly a couple of the most ardent global warming bell ringers here just completed a few 1000 mile round trip fishing trip. Did you do it in an electric car or in your concern for global warming take multiple pickups? How did that help reduce global warming? Type your answer on your mostly i could care less about the environment Chinese computer or call me on your same care less about the environment Chinese made cell phone.

The answer to that only matters if you think that the choice is between pollute as much as you want, or live in a cave...which is the choice that the "non-reality based" crowd wants you to make.

The problem with trying to play put the turd in someone elses pocket with an issue is that at then end of the day there is still a turd and it still stinks. Rationalize away .

We can't believe the data until Hankster reports what he sees outside of his window. Is it warmer Hankster?

And I think Tom Joad's BS is a major contributor to climate change.

Shades of gray = rationalization cave=strawman



If a pile of rocks blocked the road and one guy added 3 rocks and another added 20 rocks was the pile bigger or smaller?

"If a pile of rocks blocked the road and one guy added 3 rocks and another added 20 rocks was the pile bigger or smaller?"

It would still be as smart as you.

"Black or white" is the rationalization for "do nothing".

24 rocks = 105% of the carbon load How did you remove it?
At best your arguement is that you could have added 20 rocks but you only added 3. Matters not the road is still blocked with rocks.

"Black or white" is the rationalization for "do nothing". Which is the rationalization for the 150 gallons of gas I burned on the fishing trip is OK becasue still polluted less that company over there.

That company over there may be the plating company for Rvrfshr spoons, hard to find a ore toxic proces than metal palting. Even with the cradle to grave laws . I doubt anything you could do personally, would even come close to offsetting those pollutants. Well one could rationalize it away in their own mind.

I'll be gone by then....good luck.

Maybe when Warren Buffet kicks off. His Burlington Northern hauls coal and lots of it. There were some guys who benefited from Clinton locking up the coal reserves in Utah during his era.
