And, of course, they will offer no proof. Just supposition the way they
always have.
Brother stair has been predicting the end of the world. Do you believe that
too?

A major group scientific reports co-authored for the UN by many respected
scientists asserted that global warming was occurring several years ago.
Recently a large number of scientists from many disciplines signed onto a
report to the same effect. It will be published in the magazine "Nature"
soon I believe, or may already have been published there.

That's the big question, whether we are willing to accept some negative
impacts on certain areas of the economy in the long term interest of

the
planet. The US is not known for doing particularly well in that regard.
The long term interests of our corporations seldom extends beyond the
next business quarter.

There is a good chance we could at least do no more harm.

Of course the problem is by the time we figure it out it could

be
too
late to do anything about it. We may have already reached the

point of
no return but we won't realize it for several more decades.

That's
why
even the hardest skeptics are beginning to concede that we must

err on
the side of caution. The stakes are just too high to do

otherwise.
