Via Flares into Darkness [1], “Climate hysterics v heretics in an age of
unreason [2]”

I was afraid I came across too strong in replying to Spring's post [3] about
“African Americans, Global Warming, and a Just Climate Policy for the U.S.
[4].” But as I was reading that report, my blood pressure just kept going up
and up. Meteorologists have a hard enough time predicting the weather two
weeks out, and yet to read this report, Global Warming™ is a done deal and
we're all screwed, especially African-Americans, who aren't at fault; it's us
non-Hispanic whites who need to be strung up.

Oh, sorry.

I do follow this stuff, and from what I understand, there is no consensus
about Global Warming™, except from those who follow the secular religion of
Environmentalism [5].
