Is Man-made Global Warming Science? or Politics?
For more than 15 years the world has heard that the earth is gradually getting warmer and that this is caused by public enemy #1, the human race. Mainstream media, designed to be the watchdog on government and the protector of the public, continues to drink the kool-aid. Why? Perhaps its related to a common world-view rather than real science. However, again and again the opposing view, based on real science, not “politicized” science continues to make their case.
Unfortunately, the left has discovered that there is not only serious money in promoting man-made global warming (just take a look at Al Gore’s balance sheet), but also tremendous power. By promoting legislation to overhaul business the liberal left sees their opportunity to not waste this crisis, but to destroy real economic freedom.
