A. The post was NOT political, however I posted it BOTH in political and non-villages discussion IN CASE it went political.
B. I understand why big business spends huge money to fight the perception of global warming, because it is largely their operations and products (autos) that cause it, and to further protect against the problem would cost them big money. What I fail to understand is how people who are not directly benefiting from those operations, but who stand to suffer, along with everyone else, choose to beleive the big money backed dissent. Our grandchildren and great-grandchildren may not be happy that we stood by and didn't do something about this before they had to pay for it.
