Nobody said anything about banning books except you Danj...okay..maybe it's 87%...maybe its 93 %...maybe it's 70% or 60%...I am going with the majority of scientists and as far as I know...an overwhelming majority of science thinks we have a problem..so I will vote my two cents according to the evidence I have seen. I disagree with your assessment...you apparenty disagree with mine..fine..
As for the cost of stopping global warming and a "transfer of wealth" ..here's how I see it. A transfer of wealth is indeed coming...profits for companies that refuse to change will be reduced...those that change will get the money instead.... the "corporate fossil" tax breaks will end..at least for awhile...the people will get lots of green jobs that pay well...more transfer of wealth...the people will not be sick as much..(less sick days= bigger paycheck= transfer of wealth)...offshore corporate tax shelter money will be "transferred " into U.S. coffers where it belongs...more transfer of wealth)
1) I don't like to breathe dirty air and I dont want my kids to breathe it.call me crazy.... Q. why? A. because the polluting obsolescent technology and fossil fuels will replaced with alternative tech and fuels/methods which will create millions of new high-tech and low-tech jobs and the air will be alot better.
2) I don't like dirty water..I want clean water if I can get it ..call me crazy..
3) I don't like beaches covered with red-green algae or red-tide blooms that occur every summer .all summer long...due to the phosphate mines or over-fertilized fruit farms on a river 50 miles away...call me crazy
4) I like progress...not stagnation...to Hades with the fossil-fuel dinosaurs....to heck with the nattering nabobs...the young and the wise and the people who can dream of a better world that works for more people and isn't so self-destructive as the one they inherited are going to re-make it into something a bit better...utopia?..no...fairer ..hopefully...cleaner and greener...hopefully ...I believe human nature can evolve..however incrementally..
