Global Warming Doom
June 24, 2008
So my thing about global warming is, what if the scientists are right? I mean, 90% of them agree now that global warming is happening, and it’s bad. The only disagreement is how bad. James Hanson was right 20 years ago – what if he’s right again? (http://news.wired.com/dynamic/stories/S/SCI_WARMING_SCIENTIST?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2008-06-23-21-35-41)
The funny thing is, democrats are usually the “do nothing” party. This time around, it’s the republicans who want to do nothing, and they’ve got some funny reasons for it too.
I’m the father of a small child. I just know that in 20 years, when the shit’s really going down, I’m not going to turn to him and say “I thought they were wrong.” The consequences in this game are too steep. And frankly if they are wrong, the downside is a cleaner environment and more jobs created through the creation and deployment of green technologies.
C’mon people, let’s stop choking down what big-wig industry fucks are feeding us, and do something real. We got nothing to lose at this point…
