Global Warming 'Hysteria' Is Claimed

Submitted by jefferson, Mar 5, 2008 19:04

Its really the Death of Journalism in my opinion ....No newspaper , no TV station , virtually no one will confront the hysteria and junk science model that has propelled "Algore" and his emotional , well-intentioned nonsense .

The ethanol push is insane - A fuel that is comparatively inefficient , totally unsustainable , and requires huge subsidies to maintain any market feasiblity . Recent studies show ethanol , in its production , ends up maybe a break-even environmentally , and more likely a negative.

This whole thing is one reason I am no longer a democrat . Democrats are anti-intellectual , and profoundly so when it comes to "Global Warming" !
