I don't disagree, but it won't be heard as long as both the left and
right politicize the issue. Note that both George Bush and Al Gore
agree:
1. Global warming is real
2. It is caused by humans
3. Technology should be used to help mitigate it (cf. the President's
Earth Day speech
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/04/20060422-2.html and
Science 305, p. 968
http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/305/5686/968 referenced
by Gore in An Inconvenient Truth)
They disagree about Kyoto but that was an unmitigated disaster. Note
the recent price collapse in the carbon cap and trade market.
