Climate Change? Nahhh ...

It's certainly no more laughable than a sitting U.S. Senator saying there's no global warming because he made a snowball that day.

 

Correct.

 

The good news is, with Mexico's famously smooth-running infrastructure, they'll be back on their feet in no time.

 

It's gonna suck when W lets Mexico be destroyed.

 

Climate change has been going on since climate began.
How do we know what the ideal climate for the planet is — warmer, colder, what it is now?

 

It's the methane from all the cows. Short sell McDonalds now.

 

FWIW there tourism infrastructure and the ability to recover from hurricane I resort areas is pretty impressive.

After Cancun was hit and the airport almost destroyed they rebounded very quickly to accept tourists again.

 

This thing is so big and so powerful that I fear places far off the tourism map will be devastated. Haiti-level devastated.

 

Let's keep pumping pollutants into the air and hope for the best!

 

Well, ah, er . . . we just kind of, uh, LIKE it the way it is now. We, uh, well, LIKE having our nice coastal places to live and visit. And it would really, really suck if Siberia became the breadbasket of the world and those evil Russians got the upper hand because of geography.

 

No one ever moved anywhere because of warmer weather. Just look at how sparsely populated Florida and California are. Heck the Phoenix area is like a ghost town. No one likes it warmer. This is exactly why the temperature going up by a half-degree is cause to act as though a 50-billion-ton nuclear bomb is about to fall.

 

I don't mind the debate about global warming. I just wish it were an honest debate. The question isn't is global warming real, it is whether we are willing to sacrifice jobs and industries (oil, gas and coal) and really alter our lifestyles to try and make a dent in the problem. If the solution to the problem would make people more money than they would lose, it would have been done yesterday.
