AhmedWhy I believe in Global Warming
August 10th 2007 07:04
I know that I could be like every other blogger on Earth and act as though I were an expert on the matter, a never ending source of scientific fact. But the truth is, most Climate Change 'experts', or 'GLO-BULL-Warming Conspiracy Warriors' just make it up, quoting big complicated studies they don't really understand.
So this is why I believe in Climate Change.
1. People I speak to around the world report things getting unusual with the Weather. People I know visiting Torres Strait Islands report the water rising. People who have gone to Alaska report the Ice disappearing.
2. My understanding of scientific opinion, and the understanding that has been expressed by the scientifically inclined folk I know is that Climate Change is a reality, and is being caused or accelerated by Human action.
3. It is accepted as reality by most major Governments. It is accepted that Humans are causing or accelerating Climate Change by most Governments.
4. I have no evidence that Corporations have intentionally attempted to hide the truth. My knowledge of human nature through, and incidents such as a James Hardie's Corporate scandal along with many other Corporate scandals suggest to me it is likely.
5. Much of the anti-Global warming 'evidence' can be attributed to the fact that if you tell people to do anything in order to improve a situation, they're more inclined to whine, whinge and moan about it than do something about it.
