We are talking of billions of pounds worth of money here and not a
little of it publically provided and sea chnages in public policy. It
should be underpinned by a bit more than belief.

The truth is that no scientific experiment as ever been undertaken
that shows that any increase in the level of CO2 in the atmosphere
will induce global warming. Until one is the theory of anthropogenic
global warming remains just that, a theory.

Consideration of the spectroscopic properties of CO2 which are well
known would appear to conflict with that theory.

It's underpinned by some good science Mel. Science that is far better
than the theories that try to counter CO2 being the major cause of the
warming. Hence, I believe that CO2 is probably the main cause of the
present GW. Of course AGW is still a theory and it will remain so
until proven. However, that theory is far more believable and is
believed by far more scientists, than don't believe it.

Yep, that's the logic of faith.

I'm reminded of the man thought stealing so he is watched.
But when ever they check his boxes there is nothing in them.
And then the box company find themselves a billion boxes light.
That's weather scientists. All they do is check, look at the weather.
When they're not trying to be soothsayers or playing cassandras.
They don't actually fix anything, they just tick boxes.

'Oh the weather will doom us this way, oh no wait, the weather will
doom us that way'. All in an attempt to make themselves more important
than what they are and to give themelves a wage. Just like the bone
chuckers of old.

No, we shouldn't listen to them. We shouldn't chuck any more money
to find out just what the tiny fraction is that man affects the climate.
We shouldn't charge in splashing the cash at every unproven scare story.
Because that way does lead to certain bankruptcy and doom.

As a result of the science and the subscription to that science by so
many scientists, it is time to begin to spend those "billions" that
you are talking about.

We've got Hospitals with people dying in them now. The planet has millions
dying on it now. Why on earth should billions, that we don't have,
go chasing after CO2, that if extracted totally from the planet would kill us all.
What next, dry up all the oceans because of water vapor?
