QOTD: "...consider this week's Washington Post column by Jonathan H Adler: What Does It Take To Convince Libertarians And Conservatives That Climate Change Is A Problem?

Mr Adler is a conservative and a lawyer and a former colleague of mine who has written about Big Climate enforcer Michael E Mann's ongoing defamation suit against me - sometimes helpfully, sometimes in that faintly irritating way that American legal types have of explaining how your case raises many fascinating and arcane jurisprudential issues that make consuming a decade of your life over it a small price to pay.

But never mind all that, he says bitterly. Look at it this way. How often do you see mainstream newspaper headlines like that the other way round? "What does it take to convince liberals and socialists that Islamic terrorism is a problem? ...that a $20 trillion national debt is a problem? ...that partial-birth abortion is a problem?" The left has the program, and the right is constantly enjoined to get with it" --Mark Steyn

Climate change is a big problem, but not in the way that liberals (er, now "progressives") want you to believe. Actually quite the opposite.

Since almost every single one of the suggestions and demands made by advocates of human-caused global warming all seem to converge on the same statist, big government, high taxes, lower standard of living, less freedom solutions, this tells me all I need to know about this topic.

Instead of being a scientific issue, it is really an ideological issue. It is a means by which people who are statists and who love big and Ever-Bigger government hope to impose their idea of Utopia upon the west and the US in particular.

Why do I say the west only? Well, they exempted China and India, that's why!

Meanwhile, I am waiting for some peer-reviewed papers that propose what the optimum climate is for our biosphere. The first question that would naturally flow would be where is our current climate and trend in relation to this finding. I think we need this before we rush off into spending more trillions that we don't have unless we know for sure that it will really do any good.
