I spell it OBAMA! to ironically underline the idol-worship that this new President generates. There are a lot of Obamaholics out there whose hangover is going to be far worse than any depression.

OBAMA! is extremely unlikely to listen to data that contradicts his "good friend" Al Gore. But, we can hope. Without hope, we end up in a socialist kleptocracy that prefers Gaia to humans, and will let millions die before besmirching "the planet."

charlie rose is so predictable.

@CARDUELIS999 he corrects himself 10 second later and says "gasoline tax."

As much as I loved his work throughout the years, guess what Michael Crichton wasn't? That's right, a climatologist. He was an author. And you nuts on YouTube talking about "Gaia" and Al Gore need to pull your heads out of your asses, detach yourself from blogs and YouTube videos and research what the actual science says.

''its all for show.'' michael crichton

[CARDUELIS999]

Michael is wrong here. To cure "global hunger" we ought to institute a Carbon Tax? Food prices rise with energy prices. If he were still with us, he would see this happening with the rise in food prices right now.

Answer: I do, but that's not the question I asked. I asked if YOU personally had data, as you implied, or if you rely on the data in the scientific literature just as most of us do. I also asked how it was "obvious" that you know more than Crichton. It might be true, but how could it be "obvious" from a few YT comments? Perhaps I am nit-picking but here's why: I have to evaluate which experts to believe. Arrogance and condescension are huge red flags. So are lies.

@Skeptic121 Do you have any concept of how much scientific literature there is on this topic? It's literally hundreds of thousands of papers. And the science dates back 150 years.

Tell me something that you don't understand about climate change and I'll try to explain it and back up what I say with the published literature.

@robhoneycutt "Actually, I have a ton of data on climate change." Where? URL?

"I obviously know far more that Crichton does" How is it obvious? Do you have a resume?

[robhoneycutt]

@Skeptic121 Actually, I have a ton of data on climate change. I obviously know far more that Crichton does here. Yes you do have the right to evaluate it and to question it. But you do not have the right to your own version of facts. The facts support that humans are causing the planet to warm because of increasing concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere.
