Not Once again, you are affirming the consequent. If P, then Q. Q. Therefore P. If AGW is a global conspiracy (or insert friendly euphemism here: hoax, ruse, fraud), governments will raise taxes. Taxes have been raised. Therefore, AGW is a hoax. |

"The international community does not have a word for this type of crime yet, but the international community should find a way of classifying extraordinarily irresponsible scientific claims that could lead to mass suffering as some type of crime against humanity."
----------------------------------------http://rockblogs.psu.edu/climate/2010/10/a-ne...ation-campaign-on-cl.html This "Crime against Humanity" works the other way Prof What kind of irresponsible scientific claims lead directly to mass suffering Prof Brown? Starvation through higher food prices on account of "Carbon Neutral" Biofuels? Restrictions on the availability of Electricity and heat from Fossil Fuels? Deployment of new Nuclear Power with it's inherent risks and it's waste? The psychological damage of a claimed doomed future on a generation of School Children The countless Billions poured down the drain in the name of saving this Planet ( In the UK we are sponsoring to the tune of £1Billion the ability to pump CO2 down a hole in the ground - no kidding!) when they should be spent on saving and improving our lives. Crime against Humanity Prof? Yes absolutely Dave [Edit 1 times, last edit by David Autumns at Oct 31, 2010 8:04:56 PM] |
