Global Whatnow?
I’m a pretty liberal guy but I have this annoying habit of arguing to death the overwhelming “information” on global warming. This infuriates Jen to no end because, even though she is more conservative than I am, she fully believes in a majority of the global warming press.
This about sums up my cynicism:

Basically, I agree that we should find alternatives to fossil fuels and do everything in our power to reduce emissions. But I still have a hard time believing that any climate change we are currently experiencing is due to contemporary causes (industrial revolution pollution all the way up to HumVees in the high speed lanes). In the history of the Earth, our industrialization is a small spec on the timeline. The events we are experiencing were, in my opinion, set into motion long before we humans crawled around Europe.
The fact of the matter is that the Earth is going to keep on changing with or without us and its time for us to evolve into less of a parasite to the planet or find another planet.
