Al Gore is a politician and not a climatologist. David Suzuki is a Biologist and not a Climatologist ( a branch of Physics). He often uses his TV star status and media access to promote fashionable causes. Perhaps his being interred during WWII has contributed to this.

I'm a 'computer guy' and a practical environmentalist and want nothing to do with these lunatic fringe environmentalists that have never been accountable for the economic damage they cause.

The LFE caused two recessions in the seventies and eighties and are responsible for most of the warming measured in the last half of the twentieth century. What they don't tell you is that emissions legislation of the sixties resulted in cars that burned twice as much fuel. Almost any car of the mid-seventies burned twice as much fuel as a similar model from the mid-sixties. This affected many millions of vehicles and squandered many millions of barrels of oil to heat the air. The dramatic increase in consumption caused gas prices to increase exponentially at least 18 months before OPEC did anything.

When will the LFE pay for the significant harm that they have brought to millions of North Americans?

P.S. There was an environmental Professor where I used to work that I like to refer to as "Cadillac Carl". He had a nice Sedan de Ville, giant GMC SUV, and a Harley Davidson. Apparently he was completely dedicated to "saving the environment" or, at least, making others do so. Is Al Gore's mansion really required to house his small family and couldn't Mr. Suzuki get by with just one house? I seem to manage with a small house, small car, cordless mower, set back thermostat, and etcetera.

[Who's Doing What?]

Actually if you want to really get into this you need to look into Global Dimming and how it relates to Global warming. There was a recent program on PBS that I watched.

Fascinating conclusion.

Gore and Suzuki are both idiots. Intensity is the only thing you can control directly. How do they propose to stop total usage, population control?

What's next? Are they going to complain that we aren't doing enough to control the output of the sun?

On Goldhawk live a woman called and said: "The Conservatives are not doing anything to stop global warming". Boy talk about high expectations.

[betsy]

And another woman called GoldHawk to say that the Liberals and Green plans will pay for the beaurocrats that will handle all these plans....and that whatever revenue left to actually put into research will be of insignificant amount.

I agree.

And when Liberal MP McCallum bragged about having the approval of Suzuki, Al Gore and other environmentalist groups....Conservative MP Poillievre pointed out that those are the same people whom the Liberals will be doling out the money to.

I tend to believe that. These groups know where their bread is buttered.

Since you're talking of ethics, well there is something grossly unethical about being in bed with special interest groups just so to ensure political support.
