An Objective Perspective on Global Warming and it's Causes and Consequences.

I have some serious issues with global warming and how it's being conveyed to the the world and more specifically, America.

First:
I think we can all agree on one thing: The earth is billions of years old. Life, possibly hundreds of millions years old. Now, what we're being told by the alarmists of what my intuition tells me is an elaborate financial and power scheme affectionately known as "Global Warming" is that mankind's industrial output is increasing earth's temperature and leading the earth towards an early self-destruction. Now, while most of this information is relayed to us by the media from nameless scientists with even more nameless credentials and resumes it strikes me odd that these "scientists" have such a FANCIFUL outlook on the natural world and place the increase in temperature as nothing short than UTTER DOOM caused directly by man.

Now, again, the earth is billions of years old, and if the fossil record is to be trusted it would tell us one thing:
THE CLIMATE DOES NOT OPERATE BY THE STATUS QUO. It changes, it gets colder it gets hotter, continents move, and the climate changes. Forests seed and forests fade to oblivion. The fact that we're running around like headless chickens over climate change is absurd.

Here's a question you never hear asked or answered:
If mankind was some how able to cut his carbon emissions by some stroke of magic, how long will it postpone global warming? Will it stop completely? If not, is this possibly, just quite possibly, a natural occurrence that will continue on if not somewhat slower? And if we did 'cut' carbon emissions, how much time exactly will that buy us? A year? A month?

Here's another question you never hear asked or answered:
If America and other countries adopt some stringent "green" policy in regards to energy consumption and production, what good will that do when china is putting up a god damn coal burning power plant ever month. That's only one developing country. There are many more.

Another Question:
Why is it that the average Joe is expected to adopt a 'green' lifestyle? How much carbon do all the cars in America emit compared to the total carbon emissions of all the world's coal plants? How much carbon did the Los Angeles wild fires give off thanks to our conscience minded "environmentalists" and their insane policy's that forbid thinning and clearing of forests and the like? Here's a fun fact: It's a crime to harvest wood from trees that have been felled and laid by the wayside to be burned in order to clear trees away from roads. That's right, we the people are apparently too unclean to touch the wood of our good shepherds that supposedly belong to us all.

Second and most importantly:
Has anyone noticed the friggin marketing of this "think green" bumper sticker slogan? Every commercial break on practically any channel will remind you to "think green" and buy some product to help assuage the conscience of YOU, the unclean, ignorant and evil self-destructive Joe. Buy new light bulbs, drive a hybrid, dont use grocery bags, blah blah blah. Why do I have a feeling that most people never took the time to sit down and think about this and realize that all these marketing ploy products we're produced in a factory with presumably petroleum products involved in some part of it's production? Oh, but it's OUR fault.

Global warming, in my gut opinion, is an elaborate ploy to cause the middle class to self-destruct itself out of terror and self-loathing and usher in that insidious political philosophy that so easily buries its roots in chaotic and poor societies.

Up yours, Al Gore, and all our hypocrites and phony leaders who fill our mind's with fear and self-loathing. Suck the carbon from my blazin' bong!

I seriously wish the day will come when americans will rise up against these assholes who tell us how to live our lives and judge us so punitively. It really pisses me off. Someone needs to castrate this fucking government and return us to our libertarian roots and make FREEDOM more than just a friggin bumper sticker!
