The world today listens very closely to what scientists and people in power have to say about the climate. Planet Earth is where we all live, and some are saying we are killing it. Scientist warn that the Co2 we emit from our energy resources, cars, ect., has started a shift in the natural balance of the earths climate. They say with this shift, results could end with an ice age, raising sea levels, and devastating changes in human and natural agriculture. But there are some skeptics who say otherwise.
The naysayers to the human induced climate change have some arguments that sound crazy enough to believe. They argue that the up coming “greenwave” was created by the government to begin the move of human dependency off of fossil fuels. They are skeptical of the many scientist throwing them selves at the “greenwave” saying that the climate has been reaching the highest ever recorded. The skeptics say that there have been many periods in the history of humans where the temperatures varied like today. They are most skeptical of the effects of Co2 on the plants and changing climate. They say that raised levels of Co2 would help plants grow, and that the 3% that humans contribute to the yearly levels of Co2 are insignificant and do not cause any effect. Another skeptical opinion is the up and coming carbon tax. They believe that this is a plot for human kind to pay and support something that isn’t real. They believe that scientists have made mistakes as a scientific community before and they could have made another.
These skeptics come in many shapes and size, some are politicians, some scientists, and some are entire countries. The continent of Australia especially has the view that Global Warming is not human induced and that it is a hoax to squeeze money out of everyone for a “greater good”. Behind them is their prime minster Tony Abbott. Another powerful skeptic is Dr. Willie Soon. He has been paid millions of dollars by the major energy companies of today. His findings disprove human global warming. There are many many more skeptics out there with arguments that are solid…for now. Until change is noticed physically.
All these skeptics are looking for is hard evidence. Many can be swayed by a one on one sit down with a scientist who has the knowledge to guide them towards the green wave. Many are fed lies or false information, many are people in powerful positions, many will not change their opinion, and many are dangerous to the upcoming global shift to becoming green.
