An unrealistic 'solution' would be for Leftist to co-opt and use Environmental causes as a means to promote their Egalitarian/Authoritarian Statism, Global wealth/affluence redistribution hegemony. that dog won't hunt. 
Totally agree because that's their endpoint in this game.

I thought you were talking about solutions to change weather patterns and the climate, which isn't possible.

I think any kind of 'space umbrella' should remain a last ditch solution. Unintended consequences are a bitch. Like our nukes and defense weaponry...walk softly but keep the big stick available.

She has however been a dissenter on the topic of HOW IMMINENT the threat is, the RELATIVE DEGREE of human influence and HOW MUCH we could effect real change without collapsing modern society altogether, which is really what the debate SHOULD be about:
The "progressives" want to use the "science" as a way to control, tax and redistribute wealth. To do so, they have to deny that man's role is only partially to blame.

I have never denied that climate is changing and will CONTINUE to change regardless of man. I have only questioned to what extent man is responsible...and the science of that aspect IMO is not trustworthy.

When a religious person claims the end of the world is coming, they call him a nut.


When a secular person claims the end of the world is coming, they call him an environmentalist.

Sounds like she needs to he Trump's science advisor.




She thinks that humans are at least in part causing GW. That disqualifies her. Trump is the best scientist there ever was and he knows it is all bullshite and anyone who disagrees is a cuck.

Where many scientists say that humans are the primary cause of warming, Curry believes natural forces play a larger role. She also believes that uncertainty around climate models means we don't have to act so quickly and that current plans would do little to mitigate warming.


Obviously she thinks Humans have such a minor impact that anything done on our part to mitigate climate change wont make a measurable difference. But sure, lets just disqualify her.
