Global warming

Quote from james_bond_3rd:

Historically, science always eventually won despite scientists losing their political battles. On global warming, science will eventually triumph too. We all know what kind of evidence can convince every last man on earth.

Very true.

The evidence is out there. Atmospheric content can be traced thousands & thousands of years back. They were doing this long before Al Gore made his movie.

At some point it's just common sense. But that's not a common trait anymore.

And whoever said Nuclear fission is green & clean, wow, how clueless are you?.
 
the issue in my eyes is very much connected to the
code of conduct within the US conservatives. they
are willing to sacrifice any thing to get and stay in
power. it is very necessary that the US people realise
that. there is something fundamentally wrong with the
right fundamentalists.
 
do you guys know a place where one can follow the
debate between the opponents more "live"? a climate
forum or something of that kind?

"MIT Study Sees Nuclear Power as Green Weapon Against Global Warming"

"In the early 1970s when I helped found Greenpeace, I believed that nuclear energy was synonymous with nuclear holocaust, as did most of my compatriots. That's the conviction that inspired Greenpeace's first voyage up the spectacular rocky northwest coast to protest the testing of U.S. hydrogen bombs in Alaska's Aleutian Islands. Thirty years on, my views have changed, and the rest of the environmental movement needs to update its views, too, because nuclear energy may just be the energy source that can save our planet from another possible disaster: catastrophic climate change."

Good analogy. People always second guess preventive measures. They should instead be thankful that the disaster didn't happen, probably thanks to the measures taken.
