Have you ever heard a theory so ludicrous that before you even heard the arguments from both sides you knew it was bogus? That’s how I feel about the global warming scare. Not since evolution has there been a bigger pile of garbage bought hook line and sinker by so many people. In fact, in my book those who believe the hype fall into one of three categories: uninformed, deceived, or unwilling to part with the profit reaped from pushing the “green” agenda (yeah you, Mr. Gore). When one actually studies the evidence (which I have), the idea that man causes global warming and that the increased temperatures will soon be our demise is about as believable as the world being flat. However, I don’t have the energy to rehash the seemingly endless amounts of data that crush the global warming nonsense, so instead I urge you to check out this speech from Senator James Inhofe, and this document chronicaling all of the factual errors in An Inconvenient Truth.

I also urge you to simply take a step back from all the noise and ask yourself logically if you really believe that driving an SUV or leaving your lights on too long will ultimately destroy the earth? When the global warming zealots are flying around in their private jets telling you to only use 2 squares of toilet paper in order to save the planet, ask yourself if you really buy into that? The facts are that if the environmental wackos were given free reign, we’d start regressing as a society faster than you can say “carbon offset.” These are people that view “saving the earth” as the highest calling in life, and they are willing to take casualties to achieve that objective. What casualties? For starters, how about your freedoms? A mere sacrifice for the greater good. Economic growth? The same. Squash technology? Par for the course. Population control? If necessary…whatever it takes, right? (Keep in mind, I’m referring to the “the sky is falling, I’m a complete wacko liberal” type of person, not the person that simply appreciates being a good steward…because obviously that’s a good thing). I’ll admit too, I don’t think we’re anywhere close to actually enacting some of the insane legislation being pushed by the tree hugging liberals out there, but I also know that if you give someone an inch…well, you know the rest. That’s where we need to be careful. Therefore, I hope (if not already) you’ll soon know that in this case while an inch may be seemingly harmless, down the road a mile or so (spurred on by environmental extremism) is a new dark ages of poverty and ignorance waiting for us all. I know it sounds far fetched (keeping in mind that this is an extreme, worst case scenario I’m talking about), but I also know I don’t want to end up there. Do you? You’d better figure out what you believe.
