In the sixties and seventies, we invited so-called environmentalists, TV weather people, and tons of pre-packaged environmental teaching programs into our grade schools to expose our youngsters to fun and popular (time-wasting) teaching tools! Truth was set aside for fun! The last paragraph of the article by Katie Brown updates us with the truth! California is a state we should not emulate. Rather we should use their example of state government and economy as one that is misguided! Nationally, we have allowed politicians (who are mostly lawyers)and ill-informed environmentalists to politicize the scientific research of our climate. Politicians look for consensus, and through our governmental agencies, and our supposedly independent foundations have tried to force their opinion upon the public. In the contest of climatic concerns, Scientists search for the truth not the winning of a popularity contest! In a way, we asked for it.

To CryForUs - Bingo! The transformation has been happening for 40+ years. It just got a boost of radioactive steroids to finish the job. Many of us see it, but feel absolutely helpless in stopping it. 2010 may be too late to reverse the engine of destruction. To Ken St Louis

Thanks for your insightful comments.

Will you please help educate the rest of us.

Why do you believe we are "moving in the right direction"?

I know you are NOT just a blind follower, are you?

Yes, more and more people have left the state. What do we have left? Insanity, big and little "green" people, minnows and an administration that cannot plan beyond stuffing their wallet, first, last and always. Good Grief!

Then they have control of your life. If they literally hand you your food, your medicene and your welfare money for heating, housing and clothing, then you will do exactly what they tell you. They do not want you moving about...they want you in your little local community where you can't fight back, so they put you on local transit and bicycles and take away your car and your guns. They don't want you to be educated, so they send you to broken and inefficient schools and teach you to worship their plan. They don't want you to hear the truth so they shut down the airwaves and regulate the news. They don't want you to work unless it's for them, so they destroy private business and hire you working for them. The highest job availability in the US right now is in government jobs. Look around...do you think I am kidding? How else can that woman justify saying what she is saying? Is everyone asleep out there? There is a systematic plan and it is working perfectly. Thats what she is saying... and it has nothing to do with the environment.
