Comments on: If You Can’t Trust the UN on Climate Change, Who Can You Trust? http://www.openmarket.org/2008/03/21/if-you-cant-trust-the-un-on-climate-change-who-can-you-trust/ The Competitive Enterprise Institute Blog Thu, 21 Aug 2008 19:20:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: John P http://www.openmarket.org/2008/03/21/if-you-cant-trust-the-un-on-climate-change-who-can-you-trust/#comment-48537 John P Mon, 21 Apr 2008 19:04:37 +0000 http://www.openmarket.org/2008/03/21/if-you-cant-trust-the-un-on-climate-change-who-can-you-trust/#comment-48537 It's about time someone stood up for the truth. Ray Harvey is excellent in his analysis. Just keep following the money. You will see this is mostly about power and money. Let's see, Whole Foods gives up plastic in the name of saving the planet when their food prices only increase making the Austin hippies who started it very, very rich. They are laughing all the way to the bank while you sign your name to a recycled piece of paper swearing to "save the planet". You better save yourself first.

The U.S. economy has always prospered in times of change, as it would if we would more enthusiastically embrace efforts to reduce our carbon footprint. The new technologies we could invent and market would benefit our economy even more than the internet revolution. Those who come up with lame excuses that the climate is not changing, or that it would hurt our economy to reduce our carbon emissions are actually killing our economy by clinging to old paradigms. These same people resisted the spread of the rail network across the country, or the move towards the information/internet age. - Adam Rogers, New York Those well-intended Americans who resist change are undermining our economy.

And if you doubt that this is the proper course of action, just read what Doctor Kevin Trenberth has to say in response to Doctor Bill Gray: http://fortcollinsforumonline.com/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabid=515. I think you'll find this most edifying. My dear Mr. Bandow, in response to your closing comment, of course.
