How do you justify the thousands that die every year from air pollution, then? FYI, you should remove your references to Canada in that link. The entire country, pretty much, is experiencing one of our warmest winters on record. -----signature----- We have not inherited the Earth from our parents, we have borrowed it from our children.

	The link between evangelicalism and climate change denying is clear. So either belief in a prick of a god makes you stupid, or you have to be stupid to believe in prick of a god. No surprise there eh?

	I thought its becuse they feared a government policy adding additional business regulation that will make our country crippled compared to other countries that dont have such regulations.

	Not believing in reality is a whole hell of a lot different than disagreeing on how to deal with it.

	When you say "climate change" do you really mean "anthropogenic global warming" or do you just mean "climate variation that may or may not be part of a natural cycle"? -----signature----- If ignorance were painful, half the posters here would be on morphine drips.

	Climate changes naturally... People would be better served by talking about more factual issues - conservation - pollution - trash - recycling - ozone layer Rather than some vague earth warming trend.

	Best winter ever. I have hoped and dreamed of a winter like this since the day I was born. Didn't snow until about xmas. Then it all melted. Was pretty warm most of january. Was as cold as a normal winter for a week and then it got warmer again. I'm betting we get an early spring/summer. Fucking champ. (Manitoba) -----signature----- Here mi!

I fricken love it, especially since I work outside. I want our scientists to focus on what the ideal global temperature should be, and what the ideal regional temperatures should be and then figure out what exactly needs to be done to achieve it. We should start now, so that in 50 years (if we're still here!) we can make our ecosystem work for us. Who says we need to stay in the '90s climate for it to be ideal? Maybe the Earth is correcting itself back to a more natural state, from say, the Industrial Age. -----signature----- "Goddammit, Swearengen, I don't trust you as far as I could th'ow you, but I enjoy the way you lie."

If you are a denier-reader of this blog, what motivates you? I'm not asking for more URLs â€“ we already have plenty of those on file. I'm asking about intent.
