It takes about a minute to review the website of the so-called Union of Concerned Scientists to determine their political leanings.  The survey used to generate this story is very suspect.

		<description>Perhaps Richard Wadd and his friends in the GW Deniers Club should read this article.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24339280/

"Experts find natural feedback mechanism, but say it's 'out of equilibrium'"

"Since the Industrial Revolution began in the 18th century, ushering in the widespread human use of fossil fuels, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has risen by 100 parts per million."

Of course, Richard and his friends can just pretend that everything is hunky dory and let a future generation deal with the issue.</description>

…… hah and you call your$elf a Republican I thought you were a smarter capitalist than that —
--------------------------

Just an observationist.

When I see a 2000 square home that costs 750K just to green and energy efficient, I tend to cringe.

Or solar technologies that have been stagnant and money loss propositions.

I wasn't talking about investing, I was referring all of the new hidden taxes and fees that will be added on by everyone from top to bottom for marketable products and services.

Need a new roof?  Pay the premium for disposing of your old roof material and the recycling fee. Pay the contractor an environmental variable because Pay adjustment fees for falling above or below energy standards.  Pay higher insurance rates because evaluation of maintenance of said roofs will have to be in adherence to new standards.

Pay the environmental fee for the supplier of the material that will certainly pass that cost on.  Pay the environmental fee and taxes when aerial surveys reveal that your roof falls into a borderline neighborhood albedo effect even though your roof may be superior, your neighbors inferior roofs negate any positive environmental gains.

And that's just one item.  It will creep into food production and sales, trash, recyclables, transportation( in many ways), and so many things not even thought about.

I can hear the new school bond issue 10 years from now.  "We will need 600,000,000 for construction of which 200,000,000 will be necessary to comply with new energy standards, plus a variable adjusted annual fee of 2 percent for environmental compliance maintenance.

You fail to see the investment opportunities in a different direction in  an energy policy.... very simply  you take your money out of oil and invest in a growth industry ---- making turbines, green home building,   ....... more than likely it will be subsidized by the feds and states to attract new business ...   it creates a win win --- the economy grows in the transition and we reduce our dependence on foreign oil --- maybe a few less wars .....</description>

		<description>If a Democratic President gets elected and all these new legislation concerning Global Warming gets passed, I will be sitting back and laughing when people go into sticker shock at the ever increases prices.

There won't be a thing left untouched by the tentacles of GW alarmists.  Get used to empty pockets, it will come.</description>

		<description>We shouldn't be surprised.

   Angry and outraged, but not surprised by this information.

    Remember Christy Todd Whitman? She was a little bush toady. LOVED the guy.

    But she quit as head of the EPA years ago saying that bush made it impossible for her OR the agency to do its job.

    Its all been a part of (cue big voice)

   THE WORST ADMINISTRATION IN HISTORY!</description>

CONservatives hate science because science deals with facts. Facts are the ultimate threat to conservatism. So science is under siege."

Science deals with facts?

As in AGW, Evolution, etc, etc?

Theory - 

1. a coherent group of general propositions used as principles of explanation for a class of phenomena: Einstein's theory of relativity.  
2. a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural, in contrast to well-established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual fact.  
3. Mathematics. a body of principles, theorems, or the like, belonging to one subject: number theory.  
4. the branch of a science or art that deals with its principles or methods, as distinguished from its practice: music theory.  
5. a particular conception or view of something to be done or of the method of doing it; a system of rules or principles.  
6. contemplation or speculation.  
7. guess or conjecture.  

Hypothesis

1. a proposition, or set of propositions, set forth as an explanation for the occurrence of some specified group of phenomena, either asserted merely as a provisional conjecture to guide investigation (working hypothesis) or accepted as highly probable in the light of established facts.  
2. a proposition assumed as a premise in an argument.  
3. the antecedent of a conditional proposition.  
4. a mere assumption or guess.  


NOTHING HAS BEEN SHOWN TO BE PROVEN FACT!</description>

		<description>Hey for all of you AGW prophets and alarmicists out there, here is a real solution to carbon dioxide greenhouse gases and AGW:

Exhale less and quit increasing the CO2 and temperature of the earth (hot air).</description>
