From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Kurtz Sent: Saturday, June 30, 2012 8:17 AM Subject: [Ottawadissenters] Science held hostage in climate debate Before you attack, spend 3 minutes and read it. Uncertainty is key. In any case, humans won't stop burning stuff, and the time lag for GHGs is 50-100 yrs. Politics is in control in my opinion. (both sides seeking billions to 'use.') There are better uses of human energy than tilting at a windmill in my opinion.
