The Calgary Sun - Global warming the new religion

I think sharing the planet and making sure there is lots left over for the next generation is a good thing too.

But I think it's a little much when there isn't a single thing that isn't pointed out as the result of global warming. A hot day in the summer -- global warming. A cold day in the winter -- global warming. Too much rain -- global warming. Not enough rain -- global warming. Didn't finish your school homework -- global warming.

The human effect on global warming with all its variations has become the new religion.

Actually, it's become the new big business of activists, consultants, pundits and others who have grasped it with both hands as a way of being taken seriously.

Global warming baloney: Madcap 'solution' - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

In short, the beginning of our extinction, or at least so posits columnist Oliver Tickell in The Guardian, a British newspaper.

The solution he proposes essentially is a super Kyoto Protocol. It would include the power to mandate a single global cap on greenhouse gas emissions that would dramatically curtail oil and coal production and other industries deemed not friendly to Mother Nature.

Revenue from his madcap scheme would, of course, be wisely invested in so-called green solutions; hundreds of billions of dollars annually would be handed out to poor countries "to finance adaptation to climate change."

Yet the scientific community still cannot reach a consensus on whether humans even cause global warming, let alone to what degree.

Unbiased research must continue because it neither has been, nor is it now, "settled science."
