The problem with "Conservation", is that it looks on nature as a resource for the rich to control and exploit.
Nature is a resource...for all of us...your hate and envy of the rich clouds your thinking...I suppose there are no natural resources being used in your dwelling, or anything else that you use...is that what you are saying...and that only the rich use natural resources?
Yeah, actually, it did. The difference there was that the threat was more imminent, and governments ignored the moneyed interests and took action.
No..actually it didn't...And there never was a threat.
Not that I suppose it would matter a whit to you...or that I would expect for you to understand any of it...but here are some undeniable facts regarding the ozone hole scam...
CFC molecules were measured in the ozone layer at a concentration of 3 parts per BILLION...that is BILLION with a B.... NO..is a naturally occurring molecule that is as an effective a catalyst to O3 as a CFC molecule. This natural NO molecule is present in the ozone layer at a concentration of 3 to 5 parts per million...do you grasp the difference between parts per million and parts per BILLION?
So you have CFC molecules present at 3 parts per BILLION and natural NO molecules which destroy O3 as effectively as CFC molecules present at 3 to 5 parts per million...and then there is nitrogen which is a natural reactant to O3 although not a catalyst which is present in the ozone layer at 780,000 parts per million.
So do tell me how you believe a man made molecule that is present at 3 parts per BILLION represents a greater threat to the ozone layer than NO which is a natural catalyst as capable of destroying O3 molecules as CFC which is present at 3 to 5 parts per million.
And do you have any idea what those concentrations even mean? Lets think about it for a minute...parts per million...San Jose, California has about a population of about a million people...lets call each one of them a part per million. And lets make you a single CFC molecule. Now we are going to set you down in a random place in San Jose California and I am going to randomly select 5 people out of the population of San Jose.
Now, what is the chance of you encountering any one of those 5 people in a year's time? In 5 years time? In 25 years time? In your life time. So that is the chance of a natural NO molecule actually destroying an O3 molecule.
Now, India has a tick over a billion people living in it....so lets call each one of those people a part per billion...and then there is you..a CFC molecule that I am going to set down in a random place in India and I am going to select 3 people from the entire population of India.
What are the chances of you encountering one of those 3 people in 10 years? In 50 years? In a life time? In 5 lifetimes?
And don't forget, the people in San Jose and India are confined to their borders...suppose we release them from their borders and let them spread out across the entire earth...now what would be the chances of you ever encountering any of them in any number of lifetimes?
CFC's never were a threat to the ozone layer just as the natural NO that exists there in a far greater concentration was never a threat to the ozone layer..
Except that we didn't. When the rich paid their fair share before Ronald Reagan, we built massive infrastructure, we fought world wars, we put guys on the ******* moon.
Fair share? What does that mean in socialist speak? The rich already pay more than their fair share. A fair share would be each individual paying an equal percentage of their earnings....as soon as you say that one must pay more than that percentage, then you have stopped being fair and become punitive......punishing people for being successful.
Once again...you can't uplift the poor by tearing down the rich...That is why socialism fails every time it is tried...it is based on a terribly flawed philosophy...
Now we drive down crumbling highways and keep cutting Granny's social security so a few rich assholes can have Dressage horses...
Envy and jealousy are petty and bitter emotions that cloud your thinking...and you have them in spades don't you?
You whine about the debt, but when did the debt start going out of control? Yup, when your boy Ronald Reagan cut the top marginal rate from 70% to 33%.
The debt went out of control when liberals decided to start handing out other people's earnings to people who were not earning, in ever increasing amounts...spending more than you earn is what causes debt to spiral out of control...you will never go into debt till you start spending more than you earn..
IRONY ALERT. If there is anyone who is selling out the future for a comfortable present, it's the Climate Denier who won't give up his SUV.
Still waiting for a single piece of observed, measured evidence which supports the AGW hypothesis over natural variability...just because you believe AGW to be true...does not make it so. If it were true, then you would have no problem providing any amount of observed, measured evidence to support the hypothesis...and yet, you can't even produce a single piece...a more than a trillion dollars down the toilet and not a single solitary piece of observed, measured evidence which supports the AGW hypothesis over natural variability....
