And what bulletproof method are we using to determine the normal rate of "climate change" and the extent at which we are accelerating it? Secondly, if the climate is going to change anyway, who gives a fuck if we make it change faster? Also, this entire theory is based on C02? I've read that the percentage of C02 in the Earth's atmosphere that is man made equals about 3% of the total. A drop in the atmospheric bucket.
Regardless, it's cyclical and it's been cyclical since the beginning of time. Air pollution is bad and we need to work to fix that issue. As technology increases I'm sure that we will do just that. There's no need to rearrange our lives and our economy because of it.
3% is a drop in the atmospheric bucket, sure. Doesn't mean that affecting that 3% is inconsequential...if a tiny bit of cyanide was added to a body, while the amount would be small, it surely wouldn't be inconsequential.
Regardless of whether or not climate change is "real," I don't believe in trashing things. It's more expensive to be green? It's only more expensive when that green label is used to sell a product. The "green" label is a value to the consumer, meaning that the seller can tack on additional costs. Using less water, reusing containers, buying products with less packaging, biking to work, buying used rather than new, keeping your AC/heat on low ....these are all cost saving measures.
