Not really. I never mentioned MMGW but hey, whatever. I am sure you think pollution is awesome though. What I ACTUALLY DID SAY is that since GW is real, perhaps we should try to do something to protect ourselves. Why you want to argue with that is beyond me.

OK, let me clarify.
MAN MADE GLOBAL WARMING IS NOT REAL. Taxing us to offset carbon emissions is a scam.
AndyMayhew
No.
Man made global warming is real*
Taxing us to offset carbon emissions is a scam
* according to all verifiable science, though I accept that it does not actually specifically state it in the Bible.

I beg to differ, and what does the Bible have to do with it?
When you pay the scientists, you can get them to prove whatever you like.

So who has been paying tens of thousands of scientists for the past 150 years to create this scam?
Science, and big business/politicians using science for their own ends and misrepresenting it for that reason, are not the same thing.
Besides, on what grounds do you think there is not catastrophic climate change happening right now - other than because science says otherwise?

Yeah, but the point is: AGW is not a scam. It's happening. It's real.
Politicians using AGW to get more money is the scam (but if it wasn't for AGW they've be scamming you some other way, so really it make sno difference)
And some might argue that the anti-science/catastrophic global cooing religious mob are also on a scam, though only, IMO, insofar as taking your souls and seliing you all for fools.

It's pretty obvious that he made A LOT of money off of taxation, people, and corporations making buying carbon offsets. It's basically common knowledge at this point.
Do we truly know the exact amount? No. But I can assure you that a good percent of that $100 million came from the global warming scam. He is still continuing to make crazy amounts of cash of off it.

You just said it is not real, then said it is not only real, but natural. You get back to me when you make up your mind if it is real or not.
