You have my source. You have Tigerman´s source. Both show that Kyoto will have a minimal effect on climate change. And here you have more from the National Public Radio (NPR) which is known to all far and wide for its conservative global warming denial.

Fine, that’s great thanks. And very interesting, actually. All I wanted was some good links to back up the statement, which we now have.
Good stuff, all of it.

So why don´t you get busy for a change and go find something that supports any plan of any kind at all and show how this plan in your view would be feasible. You want to learn more do you? Well, when those you instinctively disagree with provide evidence to support their positions you keep rejecting them out of hand and stating that they are not credible BUT you never provide any links of any kind to show why they are not credible NOR do you provide anything to buttress your case. Am I mischaracterizing your approach to posting and discussion in this forum? Or would you like to correct me by pointing to all the links and evidence that you have provided? Up to you… I will be waiting… as I have since the very beginning of this discussion.[/quote]
Oh, you are asking me for my program to deal with Global Warming? Well, actually I don’t have one, do you? Does anyone here have “the solution”? I am sure it has a lot to do with encouraging the development of energy sources that do not produce GHG. Obviously that means renewable energy investment incentives, R’n’D funding, etc. And reducing unnecessary use of fossil fuels. But if you want a white paper on the subject, you’ll have to wait a bit. I don’t have one in my back pocket.
But that does not necessarily mean that a solution cannot or will not be found. But it will never be found if people deny AGW is happening, despite the consensus of the top climate scientists, without actually having demonstrably better science than them. Am you mischaracterizing your approach to posting and discussion in this forum? Yes you are. We have gotten into a few disagreement, and in each case I pointed out some flaws in your basic reasoning - at least in the basic reasoning of certain posts. In retaliation, you asked me some kind of red herring question, and then pointed out that I never answered it, while also ignoring many of my links and points. That’s my perception, at any rate. But I will not revisit past arguments. Instead, we can look forward to more civilized discourse in the future, hopefully.
Again, I have never claimed to be an expert on the subject, but have merely asked you to back up what you are saying. Being an amateur expert of some sort on the subject does not grant you the right to make sweeping statements without backing them up, nor accusing another person of being evasive.
Have I made any clear thesis statements about my attitudes towards global warming that require proof?
