[Hoot Gibson]

The Hadley-Climate Center is not the be all/end all of the debate. I am asking again, Hoot: Is it your contention that human activity has nothing whatsoever to do with the climate on this planet? Just like eating Big Macs and gobbling down fries has nothing to do with rising levels of bad cholesterol and high blood pressure? If you think this "living ecosystem" analogy is a "tangent," we disagree.

Because of my frequent use of the very unambiguous phrase "global warming hoax," I assumed that your question was rhetorical...and to think I was worried about overusing that phrase! :HitWall:

Let me be clear, (using a favorite meaningless Obama phrase to focus your attention on my answer), any impact that mankind's production of CO2 on our climate is so small as to be inconsequential. Our species does not have the technology to produce enough CO2 to make any serious impact on the global climate without bankrupting every man, woman, and child on this planet - even if that was our objective.

The global warming hoax is nothing but a vehicle to help deliver socialism to the inhabitants of our world who still enjoy a measure of freedom.

Does that answer the question for you? Just say no to the global warming hoax.
