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.

For more on this read this column and others by economist Walter Williams.

As the President and Congress rush headlong into solving the global warming crisis we should be aware of the overlooked and unanswered objections to the “science” behind the anthropogenic global warming theory. Congress ignores these scientists to their own peril.

Senator Cardin simply avoids listening to this testimony–most of which has repeatedly been given before at least two Senate Committees.  Perhaps he’ll listen when it becomes evident that cap-and-trade hasn’t worked, that a microscopic decrease in CO2 emissions can’t affect atmospheric physics (leave alone change the extra-terrestrial forces upon planets like earth and Mars), and instead has stagnated economic recovery.

Of course when the new administration that advocates “transparency” adds hundreds of pages to a massive bill before Congressional voting, no one can read and comprehend the bill, much less prepare carefully reasoned arguments against it.  Apparently a similar process occurs in Annapolis.

Taxes are a legitimate function of government. However, is it ethical, is it righteous, to call a tax by some other name in order to achieve a social transformation based on the dubious assumption that global warming is caused by human activity? However, if the goal is really more seditious, more damaging, the goal of destroying prosperity, free enterprise and productivity, then perhaps this makes sense.

Today, the Patriot Post ran this commentary. Think about the statements made in light of the biblical teaching on the role of government and leaders to promote righteousness and to speak the truth.

Environmental politics may seem to be pretty solid to many people. After all, the media never seems to print any of the prominent critiques of the  scientists who talk as if human causation is a verified reality. However, human causation is much in dispute. If humans cause global warming, then perhaps it would be prudent to change behavior accordingly. However, when the expenses of retooling industry is considered, and the reality that more climatologists than not doubt human causation, then all attempts to control industrial production, change fuel, etc. waste an unbelievable amount of money.  Further, creationists model the environmental factors differently than the atheist, Darwinist scientists, so it seems that worldview has some role. These issues will be addressed as we go forward on the blog. But for now, perhaps we should be reigning in Congress before they slap an incredibly enormous “hidden” tax on all of us that will all but kill an already ailing economy.
