Is Landsburg for real?
As with any of Professor Landsburg’s arguments, the logic is impeccable, he’s a clever chap. But as with any logical derivation, it is the initial assumptions from which the conclusions are drawn about which we should be wary. In the case of this article, the implicit assumption revolves around just exactly who counts in future generations. The ...

organic 'heavy metal'
It might be something to think about were it not for the infintessimal amount of 'true' organic produce. I think we'll all be dead (non-organic chemically produced) before it becomes a serious problem...

Don't need theory to tell you that the climate is unstable
What has become increasingly clear is that the ''climate'' is not in any way stable. Over the earth's history it has bounced all over the place, pausing briefly only to wander off again in a random direction, like a pebble bouncing downhill getting lodged for a time only to take off again the next time something bumps it. There is no evidence that ...

Re: The usual unquestioned assumption...
Bottomfish:So if the warming is a problem, what is causing it? Why are you so sure the cause is (exclusively) increasing CO2? Lichtenstein does not attempt to answer. The global warming alarmists don't, either. Except, of course, for hundreds of pages in the IPCC report, summarizing hundreds of individual scientific publications, all because ...

An "inconvenient idiot"
Very very long but..... worth the read.... -when you have time of course- ''you are blind, you are stupid, you are in the dark, in the mist and fog, wandering to and fro like a boat upon the water without sail, rudder or oar; you know not whither you are going.'' ...

Harder to deny Global Warming
Its been proven that CO2 traps heat. Increase the gas in any greenhouse, and the temperature goes up. More CO2 means a hotter planet, period. The increase in average temperatures almost perfectly matches the increase in CO2 emissions. Gore's thesis is correct. However, he goes wrong when he implies that the changes in our behavior and policy ...
