Over 31,000 U. S. scientists (including 9,000 Ph.Ds) have signed a petition which states, among other things:
"There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane or other greenhouse gases is causing, or will cause in the future, catastrophic heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the Earth’s climate..."
Global warming (or cooling, or climate change--I keep losing track) is nothing more than the latest attempt by the left to control people's behavior (and thereby control economic activity) through scare tactics. Senator Obama said it best himself:
We can't drive our SUVs and, you know, eat as much as we want and keep our homes on, you know, 72 degrees at all times, whether we're living in the desert or we're living in the tundra, and then just expect every other country is going to say OK, you know, you guys go ahead keep on using 25 percent of the world's energy, even though you only account for 3 percent of the population, and we'll be fine. Don't worry about us. That's not leadership.
What Senator Obama fails to mention is that although the US accounts for only 3% of the world's population, its people produce almost 30% of the world's wealth, a fact that makes us the world's number one economic engine. This man is dangerous and should not be allowed anywhere near the presidency. Just take a look at some of the national defense and international diplomacy policies that he wants to implement. It's truly frightening.
