The coal and petro industries have paid off enough people with scientific backgrounds to go out and intentionally mislead the public into thinking there is not a consensus in the scientific community as to the causes of climate change.
There is. And its us.
There are also ways to remove green houses gasses from emissions that don't cost that much and create jobs in the process.
China has taken the lead in manufacturing these new technologies because the US has been stymied by corporations pushing their political power to crush efforts to implement change. Its the same thing that happened with solar power. Go look and see who makes all the solar power cells now.
It always amazes me that the same people that are so pro life can completely ignore how their actions will effect their children and future generations.
