Rant against the sun! or The Great Global Warming Swindle


I saw an interesting TV show recently and it’s making me rethink about at my personal views on global warming. The views expressed on the BBC show “The Great Global Warming Swindle” has much theatrical TV in the mix but if you can see past that and look at the empirical evidence expressed it makes sense. It does have some “Don’t worry, be Happy”ness to it and it still forecasts a coming era of global warming coming. So it basically tells us it’s not our fault, it’s the fault of cosmic rays and our sun and it says to burn plenty of carbon based fuel sources. I just convinced myself that they were pulling a sales con on me but so have the greens. There are no voices of measure out there, they all want something. I side on the green side but I’m not as strict about it as last week. Poor developing countries need energy and power so the poor families in Africa don’t poison themselves cooking and heating their homes but carbon based fuel are NOT the solution! I say give them or teach biofuels to them that can run in unmodified generators. Make it cheap for them and that will come back to us by providing cheap biofuel for us.

My view it that we must stop meddling in the middle-east ’cause they have oil. They are passionate about life and with that their beliefs, don’t give that passion a reason to boil over into violence.

Back to my original point, let’s all go green and make life the most precious resource, let’s preserve it.
