that there was a small segment of the population advocating for all societies to go back to wodden ships and candlelight and bicycles as the preferred method of transportation.
That segment being the denialists, the premier screaming alarmists of the global warming issue.
Look, none of the rational scientists are calling for people to live in caves. That's solely a denalist fantasy. Why do they constantly resort to such alarmism? Why are they always trying to frighten people with such hysterical claims?
Here on the rational side, we want so much green energy that people waste it in great profusion. That's our vision of the future. Compare that to the denialist vision of living in caves.
You're a hoot! Your "rational scientists", cool aid drinkers all, want the first world nations to spend 76 TRILLION dollars to lower the global temperature by one degree at the end of 1000 years...maybe.
What better con could they come up with? No way to test their bullshit, no way to measure the effect, just give the greedy pricks trillions of dollars and have NO WAY to check the results. It's an awesome con.
