Paterson gut the regional northeastern-state carbon cap?]]> Grist Comment Feed en Comment #1 by GlobalWarmingInc http://www.grist.org/article/financial-crisis-meet-climate-crisis/ Tue, 16 Sep 2008 07:47:06 -0700 http://www.grist.org/article/financial-crisis-meet-climate-crisis/1 Cap and Trade is BS

All "Cap and Trade" is is a legal money-laundering scheme. How is money going from one company to another going to help the environment in any way?

Do you Global Warming zealots really want to crush our economy and turn the US into a 3rd world country, all because you believe in some unproven farce?

This phrase holds so true for so many disbelievers. How about oil companies want to keep their profits high. Follow the money.

How about a doubling of co2 280 to 560 ppm brings about 3 degrees centigrade without pos. feedbacks. With feedbacks it will be 6 degrees increase.

Now as predicted by James Hanson in 1988 the ice in the artic has accelerated in melting.

Here are 10 predictions by GW theory that have come true.

Carbon cap and trade brings together the entrepreneurial solvers of GW problems with the investors. In the so2 cap and trade the problem was solved in less time than expected and under budget. It is giving the private sector the motivation to do this in the most cost and time efficient way.

How does 280 parts per million of anything raise the temperature 3 degrees?  Is that with a constant solar input?  How would it double? Did a big volcano go off?  Don't humans and animals exhale CO2?  Are there just too many humans?  Doesn't Arctic ice melt some every summer?  
How can I get me some of this cap-in-trade money? I know how to do laundry.

I have noticed we have been getting our share of trolls posting on Grist lately. Espcially regarding global warming. I guess that is a back handed compliment to Grist. It has become significant enough to get noticed and thus swarmed (or is it skunked up?) by the opposition. Such is the downside of success.

Too bad there is no such thing as sheep dip for a web site. The ticks are getting bothersome.
