  You wrote: "I don’t see it, my neighbor doesn’t see it, and my family doesn’t see it." To which I'd observe that there are lots of people in this country with room temperature IQs who expect the climate crisis to manifest like the film 2012. Perhaps you didn't read the reports that ships are now crossing the north pole in the summer because the ice sheets melted more than they ever have in human history. Folks in Alaska have been following the news of entire villages having to relocate because the permafrost they were built upon is now melting effectively destroying those affected towns. I'm probably wasting my breath pointing out that when cause and effect are distant in time in space it's difficult for many humans to learn. You, clearly are one of these people. On the bright side, the next generation gets this far more than you are ever likely to. 75% of them understand that it is real, that it's happening now and that it will get worse. Parsing your username "me me mine" I'm guessing your just a bit self-absorbed. Small wonder you aren't able to process something this complex. Ultimately, however, you are wasting your time posting screeds like yours here.On Subtle but important shifts in global warming positions announced by U.S. & China posted 3 days, 9 hours ago 5 Responses

  You wrote: "if there is to be an effective treaty including the US from the outset, then a way must be found to disable the corruption both in Congess and the Senate." I'm sure you appreciate how difficult that will be. I'd say we have two chances of accomplishing that: slim and none. Unless We the People start fomenting far more dramatically than we have to date, I fear the political inertia will grind progress to a halt in this area. Again I'm reminded of Mark Twain: "Reader, imagine you are an idiot, now image you are a member of Congress. But I repeat myself."On Delaying an international climate treaty: not as bad as it looks posted 4 days, 20 hours ago 26 Responses

  I've been a fan of Peter Sinclair these last few months and am delighted to see him getting posted here. His work is first rate and extremely valuable for debunking and pedagogical purposes.
