I'm curious. How do you explain the fact that CO2 levels are far higher than
the highest level they've been in 650,000 years? (That's 6 ice age cycles.)
Who cares.....? My garden will grow better, that is, if it ever warms up enough to plant it.
OTOH, you're barking up the wrong tree when you site "expert" enviro-hacks backed by MoveOn/George Soros:

Good 'ol Betsy Ensley also manages BushGreenwatch.org and womenagainstbush.org, joint EMS-MoveOn.org public "awareness" websites.
Let's look at EMS, or "Environmental Media Services".....
In the “about us” section of its website it states “EMS is a nonprofit communications clearinghouse dedicated to expanding media coverage of critical environmental and public health issues. We build relationships with top scientists, physicians, and other experts to bring journalists the latest and most credible information. EMS was founded in 1994 by former Time, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated journalist Arlie Schardt. Schardt also headed the Environmental Defense Fund in the 1970s. EMS is a nonprofit funded by foundations and individuals working to improve public understanding of environmental and public health issues.”
So, living up to its pledge to provide “credible information” it also sponsors the internet site BushGreenwatch. BushGreenwatch is also sponsored by moveon.org.
A little research on Arlie Schardt, who's a 'senior consultant' at Fenton Communications, the founder of Environmental Media Services reveals the following, “Arlie Schardt, the chairman of Environmental Media Services, was editor of Foundation News from 1982-1994, and vice president for communications at the Council on Foundations from 1988-1992, taking a sabbatical to serve as national press secretary for Al Gore's first presidential campaign in 1988.”
So who is Fenton Communications? Take a look at their homepage to get a little peak into some of the people or organizations they represent. MoveOn is on their Social & Economic Justice list. I was unaware that Moveon.org fit THAT description. Their “case studies” area is also very revealing. The personnel at Fenton Communications reads like a list of aging hippies. Here is a rundown on Fenton Communications:
A close reading of the Fenton Communications overview shows how organizations such as EMS and Fenton are designed to extract money from foundations and clients. All in the name of “activism”. The capitalist spirit is alive and well, even on the left. One wonders however, whether EMS, Fenton or BushGreenwatch really care about the left’s agenda, or whether they are in it for the money........
Believe what you want, but you can keep your fantasies, thank you very much. :rolleyes:
