10 Ways Donald Trump Can Cut Waste - Our Advice From OpenTheBooks.com

OK, and you're confirming my point.

I guess I shouldn't have said essentially burying your head in the sand and ignoring the problem is not rational - it is rational. We all deal with problems we can't individually solve that way. But if that's your choice, it's not rational or fair to then assert that others who elect to try to deal with that problem are somehow illegitimate or engaged in a fraud, just so you can feel comfortable with your choice to not care what happens or what our energy choices today might mean for the future.

That's nice, but you linked to an article in Forbes, by a lobbyist, from a year and a half ago, with a broken link to the underlying data.

I really wish I respected the climate scientists the way the public respected all scientists when I was growing up

But the scientists and engineers who took man to the moon were not liberal democrats on a political mission to save the world

The people you are quoting are bought and paid for by what amounts to a leftwing global warming Inquisition
