#1 There's no compelling scientific argument for drastic action to 'decarbonize' the world's economy.
Agree. Whether or not man-made global warming [MMGW] is important, there is ZERO evidence that anything so far proposed to lessen MMGW will have a beneficial effect sooner than 200 years into the future, while the detrimental economic effects happen IMMEDIATELY, with many national economies already rapidly deteriorating.
Enough of this MMGW crap.

#2 Classic snake oil:

Treats ALL diseases, especially non-existent ones.

Grandiose assertions of effectiveness not backed up by any independent scientific testing.

Tastes awful.

A great deal for the seller. For the buyer, not so much.

Should be outlawed.

#3 Snake Oil (Continued):

Contains unknown or exotic ingredients.

Is of dubious efficacy.

Is marketed with high pressure or film-flam selling techniques.

#5 Unfortunately, the SIRIUS + simil major Solar Storm/Flare Events [e.g. QUEBEC] were real - IMO it would be morally + professionally unethical + incompetent for our Resident Mad Solar/Space Scientists to not determine + tell us what is occurring.

MODERN + POST MODERN REPRESENTATIVE/ELECTORAL: DEMOCRACY = come to mean HIDE EVERYTHING, GOOD OR BAD OR MIXED, FROM THE VOTERS OR THE PEOPLE.

Not unlike "Peak Oil" + "Peak Resources/
Everything", iff one believes that our OWG-NWO is also akin to desired future SPACE GOVT-ORDER FOR PURPOSES OF DEEP SPACE EXPLORATION + COLONIZATION, which I do, THEN THESE QUESTIONS + ISSUES, ETC. HAVE TO BE ASKED + ANSWERED TRUTHFULLY.

"Good/Smart Politics" is N-O-T always Good/Proper Leadership, + can be HIGHLY DANGEROUS, EVEN CATASTROPHIC = MORTAL, UNDER THE RIGHT CONDITIONS.

#6 E.g NEWSVINE > WHY THE BP MACONDO BLOWOUT [Gulf of Mexico/Mahico] IS SO DISASTROUS + BEYOND PATCH-UP.

and

* SAME > SCIENTISTS: HAITI, DR [Dominican Repub] MAY BE FACING BIG QUAKE PERIOD. New active cycle of potentially large EQS as per Enriquillo Fault System.

* Lest we fergit, the on-going US national controversy oer "FRACKING".

The above are among the top issues our future OWG-NWO will be steadily hotly debating circa Year 2040-2070, IN MANY WAYS DUE TO THE GOVTS,PERTS CONSENSUS OF NO/LACK OF CONSENSUS THAT WE EXPERIENCING NOW.

Iff things don't change for the better, the US-World may wake up in Year 2040 or so to find out there is suddenly no more Oil or Gas available GLOBALLY for Automobiles, Heavy Industry use.

IMO HERES THE FUN PART - THE US-WORLD IN 2040 WON'T BE ABLE TO CLAIM THEY WEREN'T WARNED MANY YEARS + DECADES BEFORE.
