Where did you get that "Algore, who has been summoned along with Bill C. to dig Obama out of the hole he has created" ? I cannot easily find where that came from.
That said, i think a lot of people have already acknowledged that Al Gore exaggerated and promoted fear. I guess we will just need some decades to pass to see if he had good cause.




Google around you will find the links, probably near the Drudge Report. Not wasting my time.



A few individuals aside, most climate sceptics think the world is moderately warmer than before, that humans have had some effect, but that most of the variation is natural and not particularly worrisome. Another band of sceptics – those who might be called ‘policy sceptics’, like Bjorn Lomborg and Roger Pielke Jr – broadly accept the IPCC’s view of temperature change and its causes. However, they think that the answer lies in devoting resources to technological development in the short term rather than a costly and probably futile attempt to decarbonise the world overnight. But even such policy disagreement is too much for the alarmists, who regularly pillory Lomborg in particular, yet it gets dressed up as ‘scientific fact’.
This last point rather gives the game away. What is really being contested is a political worldview in which human beings are seen as a blight on the planet. If some greens had their way, humanity would quietly shuffle off and leave Mother Earth in peace. More realistically, the aim of environmentalists is to reduce the human population and economic growth, so that a sustainable number of people live in a ‘steady state’ economy in harmony with the natural world. Such an outlook is romantic, in the worst possible sense, and downright misanthropic.
Whether the planet is warming or not, and whether it is human beings causing that warming or not, the only question that is worth answering is this: what is the best way forward for humanity? Trying to close down debate through censorious demands or through publicity stunts – which is effectively what Muller is attempting to pull off here – is the very opposite of a human-centred outlook.

But i did follow some of your other links and found materials that i had already incorporated in my item or were irrelivant bloviations. I don't usually comment on stuff unless it has just some hint of a new idea that i hadn't already ever heard ... even if it goes tilt to my world view. However this thread did contain such a though for you ... to my knowledge you have never done that thought experiment ... sorry you missed it.






btw, your stuff like "DUDE

Doomsday clock ran out ! How does the post-doomday feel this morning?



We are still being taxed to prevent it! But now the rest of the countries are trying to tax the rich countries to prevent it! Was it ever about anything except money & politics?

I understood Seth’s reference perfectly. It very nicely matches the context of your comment.


Everyone else was just enjoying the view and having good conversation.
