Whether or not you believe that pollution contributes to climate change, it's difficult to avoid facing up to the fact that droughts, fires, storms, floods and similar problems are on the rise.
If you don't like the proposals to reduce greenhouse emissions, fine. But I'm not hearing any practical alternatives to cope with this evident issue.
When there is a LOT of money behind industries that pollute, you gotta be at least a little skeptical.
Side note: it's a amusing to observe that when strong regulations reduced coal plant emissions, the particles those plants used to put up in the atmosphere declined. They had been reflecting sunlight. Reducing the particles actually raised global temperatures.
My point? I don't have much trust in either side of this debate.
