Daryl, I hate to tell you this, but the vast majority of people do not
believe in this. They believe it is a scam, and it is a simple thing to
follow the money and see where it leads.
And it isn't simply the "great unwashed," as many like you would love to
believe. It includes educated people, and even "scientists." Those who
most want us to buy into this, and allow the "elites" of the world to
lead us out of this terrible "crisis," have a great deal to gain in
terms of power and money.
It is a sham, in my considered opinion. It is the same sort of sham that
they tried to perpetrate on us back in the 70s when they told us a
global ICE AGE was coming. There is no solid evidence of any of it, and
nearly all the evidence they have put forth to "prove" it has been
trumped-up, such as the now-infamous "hockey stick" graph.
A year ago, they told us that we were in a "ten-year plateau," and that
the "warming" would resume after that time - this because the
temperature readings weren't favorable for their case. Now, they're
seizing on the current mid-U.S. heat wave to tell us that the warming
has resumed. Well, which is it?
Whatever hits the news, that's what they go with. They are depending
upon the gullibility of the people, and finding that people aren't that
gullible.
I'm sorry you've fallen for it.
