climate change
Green Vitriol
Record snow falls in the eastern United States and
in Europe, and again we see an exponential growth
in vitriol revolving around the global warming or
climate change debate. This really looks backward
to the Enlightenment birth of what we call science,
that originally went under the term natural
philosophy, which grew out of the discussions
between applied and theoretical theology. So we
hear some people calling global warming a religion
and others calling it settled science. The truth is
that none of us now alive will be around when it
makes all that much difference, but that sure
doesn’t keep pundits and know-it-alls from making
popish balderdash.
Back in the 1970s when the fear that the world was known to be heading towards another ice age, one of the discussions against cleaning up the air, was that it may lead to global warming. What we are now told in essence, when we saved the world from dirty pollution, we condemned the world to invisible pollution. So the cheap and simple solution should be let’s get dirty again. Of course that is really just a straight-forward fix that doesn’t fit within our self-righteousness coin flipping to save the planet — get rich.
If we could ask the Wooly Mammoths they would tell us to watch those ocean effect snowfalls because they could cause you to freeze to death in the stupendous snowy change that would start an ice age. Of course they did freeze to death during the start of an ice age. So in all our human smarts we know that we really don’t want to have that enter into our frigid natural philosophy discussions.
