stand how the mind works).
When you look for and increase the goodness of a person, you can help
them improve. From that starting point can man be bettered.
The way to improve conditions is to put attention on increasing the
goodness, the health, the production,

say Exxon is a tofu
burger. Alright? Let's just say they are both inconsequential, however
you want to visualize that, so we can let all of that go and talk about
something more fundamental.
What if the scientists are right that the greenhouse gases (which
actually DO help keep the planet warm enough for human habitation or we
wouldn't be here talking about it - those gases) what if they DO retain
additional heat when we add to them faster than natural cycles can
mitigate?
That's a reasonable possibility. Retaining heat is what greenhouse gases
do. As a simple analogy, put on a more insulated blanket at night and
you're likely to be warmer, overall.
Possible changes in the atmosphere and the likely repercussions are what
many professional and reasonably sane scientists are reporting and
discussing.
There is a real chance something is happening in the atmosphere due to
human contributions to greenhouse gases. Which means there's a real
chance we have to deal with it one way or another. Proactively or
reactively. And it's very likely to be easier to deal with sooner than
later.
When a Michigan congressman who is one of the main defenders of the auto
industry in Washington starts talking plainly about the ramifications of
human contributions to greenhouse gases, that's news.
It's not enough to merely tar him as a Democrat. This is the guy who
held up updating CAFE. He has not been shy about representing the auto
industry.
