Not only is Global Warming not true, industry is not responsible !

clarkjohnsen,

I am amused by this thread- getting so far off the subject of the film and into an argument about the reality of global warming.

To simplify the global warming issue: the people who have been inculcated with the deep desire to protect oil industry profits will deny warming, and those who like the idea of conservation and mitigation of a possible environmental disaster will err on the side of caution and believe the fossil fuel set should look into it and possibly help try and look for alternative energy sources. In my view, given the World energy needs, there will be plenty of money for everyone in whatever energy business evolves, and trying to run down to the last drop all on petroleum is short-sighted. We can see the US scramble to protect ME oil supplies costs 100s of Billions and thousands of lives- think of what use these resources could be put. The spending millions by industry to oppose greenhouse gases mitigation does saves billion in reinvestment to alternate energy, but is a short-sighted view.

Clark, you're doing a good deed to try and save oil company profits but don't worry- ExxonTexacoMobilChevron will be fine and still make $9 billion profits per quarter. -I wonder if they care about you as much as you care about them ?

As an advocate of "subtle", unmeasurable technologies/effects like the Smart Rocks, obtuse polarity, Clever Clocks and so on- who insists that no criticism can be made of their effects unless one has tried to hear them with an open mind, you might apply your own critical principle to global warming and see Gore's movie. One line and a link to an opposition article does not seem to coorespond with the notion of responsible critcism. -Have you seen the movie at all?

A good topic, but in this forum, I would prefer to learn something about the content and merits of the film rather than lobbying for the oil companies.

Cheers,

Bambi B
