<div id="AOLMsgPart_2_4cfa9aa7-346c-4927-b276-a2a3ef9cdc3c">
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">This is where we have a huge
ideological schism. You appear to think that science and data have
political leanings. I do not. Certainly there is biased science, as is
evidenced by the tobacco companies that found smoking to be harmless.
And as a scientist you certainly understand that there is always
disagreement, but one need to look at the preponderance of research and
data when drawing a conclusion. In this instance that body of evidence
comes down squarely in favor of global warming/climate change. To
attempt to dismiss it on a political or ideological basis is less than
what I would expect from a trained scientist.<br>
<br>
FWIW, I agree about the irony of MTBE, as well as the whole host of
other fuel oxygenates, causing unforeseen consequences. Yet I draw a
completely different conclusion. Fuel oxygenates have been
unequivocally proven to reduce emissions and lessen pollution. To say
that the decision to implement their use is flawed because of that
unforeseen consequence to me is not a valid conclusion. Clearly the
issue was improper containment systems which were addressed in the
requirement to replace all USTs with either Plasteel or double-walled
fiberglass. The problem is not MTBE in fuel. The problem is leaking
tanks. The new regulations have resulted in a drastically reduced
number of unauthorized releases.<br>
<br>
On balance I think it can be argued that the environmental damage
caused by MTBE is significantly less that the impact of severe air
pollution. So I guess it is a lesser of two evils argument in a way.
However, the point remains that what was done is far better than having
done nothing. Certainly MTBE has caused significant impact, especially
to the water supplies of particular cities such as Santa Monica. But
again, the widespread and chronic negative effects of air pollution in
my mind still justify that decision.<br>
<br>
I agree that we must always examine science with a critical eye, but at
some point the evidence is clear. Where politics comes into it is when
we try to determine what to do about it. But if we continue to dismiss
science and make people distrust it based on politics or dogma then I
think that is a huge disservice to society. As I have said before. I'm
willing to debate all dat long about what we can or should do about
global climate change, but if we try to address the issue by pretending
it is a hoax then I think we are all in trouble.<br>
<br>
BTW - ice cores are very cool indeed, FROZEN in fact ;~}<br>

Which ones are those?? Got any examples?? I think you may have a

<span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">The simple
change of language from āglobal warmingā to āclimate changeā should be
proof enough that global warming is not happening. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">This is not only wrong, but it is kind of
a silly "proof". The main reason that the term has been changed was due
to fact that many deniers made silly comments like "well it snowed here
today, so much for global warming". The more precise term is in fact
global climate change. That is being fueled by the increase in average
global temperatures which are drastically affecting the climate. It is
also worth understanding the difference between climate and weather. <br>
<br>
<br>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">However,
the politicians and greenies that used āglobal warmingā as
justification for bigger government and more government control of the
private sector do not want to lose that traction as the fraud of global
warming is being disproven.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">Again, this so wildly misunderstands the
issue that it is hard to know where to start to respond. It is an
example of the thinking that Al Gore invented global warming to take
away your SUV.<br>
<br>
<br>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> So they
(the politicians and greenies) are now using āclimate changeā in a
desperate attempt to tie any naturally occurring climate condition to
human influence.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">No, they are
using climate change for the reason I stated above.<br>
<br>
Here are a few nice graphics for people to look at. <br>

I'm sorry, but the inability of any one person (or group of people) to
understand something does not mean that the something is wrong. For
instance, there are still people today who think the Earth is flat.<br>
<br>
Anthropomorphic influence on global warming/climate change is
undeniable. I will grant that there is still much debate about what, if
anything, we can do about it. But to deny its very existence will
render that important debate nearly impossible.<br>
<br>
BTW - for those that wonder. I am a geologist by education and
profession. Way back in 1983 I helped in some of the early research on
the deep ice cores from the Antarctic. This is not a recent science.<br>
