RELIGIOUS CRUSADES ARE….
[A] SCARY
[B] ALWAYS A BAD IDEA
[C] POLITICS BY ANOTHER NAME
[D] Fill in the blank…
I want us to seriously consider the idea that the political control of climate, if it were ever REALLY effective, would surely trigger world wars because every large scale climate change produces winners and losers. Losers will go to armed conflict if it is in their perceived interests to do so….
And I want us to carefully rethink just how far we want to take-as-a-given that the notion of human-forced global heating rises to the level of a religious crusade. I would, for one, prefer continuing, intelligent dialogue (recall the dialogue means listening as well as talking) for at least another five years or so.
Why? You ask.
