bashing deniers is fine…so what’s next?…you expect them to change their minds?…shouldn’t there be a plan B?
I dunno. I’m not sure there’s even a Plan A.
Deniers seem to have unlimited dollars to piss away in their attempts to muck up the science; combine that with their army of adherents that will refuse to believe no matter how compelling the evidence and it’s a lousy situation all around.
The President’s capitulation on the smog standards is further evidence of how the “nope, no problems here!” crowd dominates the conversation.
If we can’t have both a sound economy and clean air, what the fuck is the point of capitalism? Lifting people up while practically ensuring there’s a marked increase in asthma doesn’t sound like a fair trade to me.
