Unfortunately, you are either a disseminator of disinformation or one of the unfortunate individuals who have been duped by the "corporatocracy" here in America (and abroad). The evidence is overwhelming that mankind is exacerbating the global warming phenomenon; period--end of argument.
Unfortunately, the reality is simply this--finding a solution to global warming would deal a fatal blow to the profiteers that stand to lose the most money (hence "An Incontinent Truth") while the rest of us, and our posterity, stand to lose what little "hospitable" environment we have left. It is bad enough that pollution and other environmental stressors have tainted our planet with disease, but what's even worse are the effects of the ever-increasing carbon emissions into our atmosphere and what they will do in the not so distant future (because of people like you [the naysayer] that refuse to admit or see the truth).
If you have simply been duped, I hope you come around and peace finds you and your family as we stand a modicum of hope to overcome this impending crisis. If you are part of the false propagandists, however, then you are akin to a lethal virus that needs to be eradicated. That is not a threat--that is simply an analogy because, if we do not start seriously addressing the global warming issue, many of us will stand to be wiped out as the climate shifts at an accelerated and intensified rate. What perhaps you and others are insidiously trying to do is mix fact with fiction, exploiting the former with the latter by using a teleological fallacy which ultimately results in a very dubious and slippery slope which will have disastrous consequences.
What's worse is that the plutocracy found in American and throughout the world will cease at nothing to protect their profit margins by paying off pseudo scientists to produce bogus studies which provide "plausible deniability" for companies like Exxon and politicians on the right (and left) in need of the political cover necessary to legislate and prevent laws to support the wealthiest 1% of our population.
The power of the "corporatocracy" must be stopped, and it is not limited to the global warming phenomenon (albeit it is the worst problem of all). Their power is also the driving force behind the malevolent distribution of wealth and resources in society--a concentration of wealth that FDR fought so hard to cease and prevent for future generations; all of which came to a grinding halt after the breakup of ATT and Reagan's unwavering support of economic principles he understood little himself, but which had huge economic advantages to the overwhelming corporations that have grown up ever since and the individuals at their helm who profit from them the most). These "anti anti-monopoly" practices continue to have adverse repercussions for the rest of us today--and the problem is only getting worse.
Global warming, or our lack to mobilize efforts in opposition to the man-made and overwhelming portion of it, is simply the greatest symptom of a fundamental flaw in American politics... the illusion of democracy (or rather, the illusion of a democratic-republic) here in the United States and in other "democratic" nations around the world. The power, both public and private, simply doesn't reside in the hand of the people anymore--that's the illusion--it really rests in relatively few people and families that pull the strings for the rest of us.
The greatest cure for our problems, including global warming, is addressing the underlying political flaws which prevent us from dealing with them equitably and sensibly in the first place. To do that, we need to embrace the spirit of the 2nd Amendment so that we can bring something more than empty threats to the political round table--we can bring the reality of an armed citizenry that refuses to allow corporations (and government) to abuse capitalism in a way that runs over the overwhelming majority of people. Conscientious capitalism can work, but conscientious conservatism, as practiced, cannot.
I don't have time to thoroughly argue the 2nd Amendment portion of my argument here, but if you are a naysayer, I would admonish you to rethink your opinions in such matters as mentioned thereof and get on the right side of things with the rest of us--after all--we the people prevailed in 1776, so there is a good chance we may overcome tyranny again (wherever and whenever it exists)...
Remember, global warming is symptomatic of a greater problem Thomas Jefferson often spoke of. It isn't just the corporations; it's the banks (and specifically, the Federal Reserve, the private institution that heads them all--a duty delegated to congress in the American Constitutions which was later subverted by the Supreme Court). Jefferson wrote...
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."
Considering you really don't own your home if you have a mortgage--Jefferson was right. What takes thirty years and two to three times the price of your home to begin with should take a fraction of that time and cost to your god-given right to own your home. We'll never fix this problem, or global warming, without first addressing "the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks]" to begin with.
But how is this ever going to happen if our politicians, and the heads of banks and corporations surrounding them, don't take us seriously? If a British soldier knocked on your door in 1776, chances are that he would have a musket similar to the one you had hidden behind your door (and to the one that fired "the first shot heard `round the world" in Concord, Massachusetts the previous year). Even though you would be outnumbered by the local British garrison, they would in turn be outnumbered by your neighbors (which made up the local militia). The spirit of the militia is what has been lost since the American Revolution; and its loss is the cause of corporate greed, government intrusion, the gross maldistribution of wealth in this country (and around the world), and crime. Thank about it; if everyone walked around with a sidearm like you'd see in some old western, virtually no one would consider perpetrating a crime against you (as the movie industry would have you believe). Just as it served to subvert the Cold War, MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction), an ever-armed citizenry would virtually eliminate violent crime. It wouldn't be necessary for every single person to carry a firearm (such as children, adolescents, or a habitual criminal recently released from prison); it simply require enough people so that the chances of someone concealing a weapon would be far greater than not.
Like Jefferson and our forefathers, I don't advocate violence for "light an transient reasons", but global warming and other problems that plague Americans and citizens around the world (like the refusal for universal healthcare and terrorism), are so insurmountable that violence, or the threat of it, is sometimes the only way to resolve the seemingly irresolvable. The only way to be a threat to the heads of corporations and opportunists in government is to ensure we have an armed citizenry--an armed citizenry that has the right to "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" afforded by the Constitution and guaranteed via the first and second amendments of the Bill of Rights.
It's important that our citizenry can see this connection between: global warming and other problems we face in the world, "the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks]", our government, the Constitution, and the 2nd Amendment within it. We have the power, but human nature sometimes prevents us from using it. Just as Al Gore uses the analogy of the frog in "an inconvenient truth", Jefferson mentioned our inability to use the power of the people in the Declaration of Independence when he wrote, "all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed." But he also immediately went on to say, "But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security."
I am as "liberal" as the next guy when it comes to universal healthcare, protectionist measures to ensure fair trade (to protect both companies and their workers), and unions to ensure humane conditions in the workplace, etc... but global warming is going to have catastrophic consequences if we don't quell this "long Train of Abuses and Usurpations." To do this, we need to go back to the fundamental right to bear arms--that way we have teeth able to hold politicians and the heads of corporations accountable. With embracing the 2nd Amendment and creating a culture of arms, we remain toothless in the flight against global warming.
