I've been thinking about the climate change deniers. I probably know some of these people who obviously have been convinced that climate change is being caused by sunspots or some other natural phenomenon. Now these people are probably getting a lot of attention because of the people that back them, mainly coal and oil companies. But for a second let's assume that they don't have a vested interest and that they are right (and I'm sure that sunspots are playing a part along with other things).
Is the answer then that we shouldn't worry about pumping out all these greenhouse gases from producing all the shit we love to buy, growing our food, heating our houses and driving our cars? Is the 401 a natural phenomena? What about a Walmart? What about avocados and mangos in Nova Scotia?
Hardly.
Ultimately even if climate change was being caused by sunspots it still doesn't justify the continued presence of all the crazy things that make modern civilization. So what the heck are we arguing about? Why the fuck are we so stupid?
