Fareed Zakaria is a interviewer... he dosnt have a stand when is live. And second of all, you should know better than crying about bad weather in NY. The earths lane around the sun is in a flattern elipse.. i hope you got the brain to figure out what that means every 1000 year or so...

first, a different opinion doesn't warrant an insult. And who told you interviewers dont take sides, you need to watch a little more television. All I know is what I see, both in India where Im from and NYC where I live and negative changes in weather is what I see. Good for you if you dont see it my way, but dont try to insult anyone with a different view.

Against desinformation:
1. Just google: lomborgs errors / info-pollution
2.1 Lomborg deconstructed by Michael Pawlyn:
watch?v=w_c5g6tXvK8
The high-cost-thesis has lost all credibility!
2.2 Pawlyn also criticizes Lomborgs biased selection of scientists and their reputation in the community/peer-review!

Google for lomborg errors? Google for sites telling you about god existing! How about you discuss what's actually in the video. His arguments are strong. Yours are not.

Global warming is not even happening. I am the skeptical environmentalist here, folks. It is all a giant conspiracy between Richard Stallman, Tim Berners-Lee and Al Gore and actor Steve Buscemi.
It has turned into a multi-billion industry of enviro-marxist work lazy liberal hippies now.
Jesus is coming back in this century, so what does it matter if it gets a bit warmer these last decades?

I have the impression that even if one focuses in the problem of global warming, the decisions that are being taken now are far from efficient. We are talking about 100 years. Provide education for children in Asia, South America and Africa. Imagine the impact of this within one century. To say few, you get: a big number of activists there, reduction of emissions and preservation of the rain forests. Besides, the cost of this would be smaller.

No, a cold summer means weird weather, and thats whats been happening for a few years now, around the world, hurricanes have increased with intensity, tornado's have started appearing more often. Talking bout global migrants, go to Calcutta and see why it looks bombed out, close to 4 million refugees settled there illegally 30 years ago because of war, thats a sign of things to come, Calcutta is but a small reminder of refugees in large no's. If we can change our bad habits, now is the time.

ah I see what you're saying.

Anyways, global climate has always changed. You need to first find a causal relationship between what humans do and the amount by which climate changes before you can prescribe certain actions for us to take.

As far as refugees goes, they're not a problem as long as there's economic freedom, so the problem is that most places don't have enough economic freedom. Also turns out that wealthier people and nations are better able to take care of the environment.

You realize that your paranoia about the weather is no proof of global warming, right?
