You seem to think that the free market is the solution to everything. Yes, the free market is a very efficient system (and probably the best we have right now), but it has really deep flaws of it. The problem of externalities such as pollution is probably one of those biggest problems. An externality is a good or bad (usually bad) side effect that arises from market transactions (i.e. a chemical plant that dumps their waste into a river may pollute the drinking water of a town downstream). And regulations are here to deal with that. The [relatively] clean and healthy environment of the United States that we all take for granted was brought to you by environmental regulations. I'm not sure why it's so difficult for you to wrap your head around that.

No offense taken. And we'll see who will feel duped in a few years.

In my closet-sized room, I don't have access to a TV so I haven't been up to date.

Re: Climate change hoax exposed?
In the tropics, the winter temps have been way above normal pushing winter north and causing lots of calamity in northern latitudes. Consider that in February the midnight temperatures in the tropics have been in the high 80's. Let's hope the predicted summer temperatures of 110-120F in the tropics are not a reality. In that case the crops will rot and SE Asia will starve.

Quote:
Interactive Map Shows When Your Community Could Reach ‘Climate Departure’ | EcoWatch On the flip side, climate and geological records from the deep past suggest that during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (as well as a few other events), a prolonged period of intense global warming tens of millions of years ago that led to an extinction event, tropical rainforests actually proliferated and expanded. But that's not to say the same will happen today. The PETM was most likely caused by a period of intense volcanic activity, and CO2 levels took tens of thousands of years to build up in the atmosphere as opposed to tens. So back then, the rainforests had ample time to evolve and adapt. This is not the case today, unfortunately. Either way, I wouldn't want to risk it. We need to start taking bold action, despite my potentially vain attempts to remain optimistic.

Re: Climate change hoax exposed?
Quote:
Global Warming = increased AVERAGE temperature of the ENTIRE planet Higher Average Temp = More Energy in the Atmosphere and Ocean More Energy = Increased strength and variability of LOCAL weather events Therefore Global Warming = Local Climate Change (Up or Down, often both in the same year) I could go into the recent fluctuations in the Jetstream, the disturbance of the normal Polar Vortex or any number of other system changes, but I want to keep this simple. "Global Warming is false because it is Cold Where I Live (or over there) Right Now" is a completely stupid and uneducated argument with no logical stability or scientific defensibility.
