Indepublicrat, I propose that we should try to do things that work in our world not things that require that we advance into a Star Trek universe.

Here are some facts I feel comfortable enough to assert on my personal expertise:

1. Scientists are human
2. Politicians are human
3. Societies are formed of humans

BTW I don’t believe in some massive deliberate conspiracy. Its as improbable as those conspiracies 911 truthers come up with. However there doesn’t need to be a massive deliberate conspiracy for there to be significant errors in the current scientific understanding of something as complex as climate change.

Also I have not said we should do nothing. I am all for discussing what we should do, but it seems that AGW proponents are unwilling to discuss that in depth until AGW has become dogma.
