The problem I have is it looks to me like the most vocal critics of global warming are themselves politically and financially motivated by who is paying for their research. I don't know of any scientist global warming critic who doesn't have some kind of ties to major industries who stand to have to spend some money if action is taken to reduce our effect on the environment.
As far as I can tell, all of the independents either see global warming as a problem or a potential problem. It's not a question of whether we're damaging our environment, but how soon that damage will become so severe it will affect our chances of survival. And what sacrifice is required, and who will make that sacrifice to prevent that day from coming. Finally whether it is already too late or not. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
