Global Warming - Bah!

You know my position on man-made global warming. I think Instapundit has an excellent position on the subject, though I am more skeptical than he is. But most people agree we need to get off fossil fuels as soon as we can.

George Will wrote a great piece in Newsweek that sums up the absurdity of the whole debate. The money quote:

Was life better when ice a mile thick covered Chicago? Was it worse when Greenland was so warm that Vikings farmed there? Are we sure the climate at this particular moment is exactly right, and that it must be preserved, no matter the cost?

Frankly, I think we’ll be off fossil fuels in our lifetime and the point will be moot. In the meantime, the hysterics and political hacks need to simmer down.  The public will not take reducing their livelihoods and comforts lightly. The more they push this, the more people will push back.
