Jeff.
I guess I must clarify my point again. Al Gore has been running around for I guess 15 years with a video that proclaims the environment is doomed in 10 years unless we do something now. I am very sure that scientists on both sides of the spectrum work for someone with something to lose.
Unless you think it is impossible for one chemical company to fund research for a new chemical verses say: DDT and it is in the best interest of that company to find a reason why the new chemical is better or SAFER. We are talking about millions of dollars, probably billions. New chemicals cost money to develop and good ol DDT is already out there and cheap. Get the picture.
It amazes me how people can think politicians are crooked but big business is white as snow. Big business contributes to politicians not children dying in Africa.
Yes Jeff I am skeptical about this so called Global Warming. I have been close to the environment my entire life, I am a 4th generation Farmer/Rancher. I have used many chemicals to attempt growing food to feed a hungry world. I have also traveled extensively and am not afraid to tell you that I have read alot and researched alot on these things and I am not convinced. I do not believe in letting people suffer unnecessarily. I do everything in my power to make sure my animals are healthy and the food I raise is nutritious, I would think that we could do the same for humans.
I also have three children that I want to have a chance at a good life, so I am not calous about the environment and the futures of my children.
I do however take strong exception to your comment that," malaria needs to be addressed but the real and deeper issue is trust"? Sorry but I don't see it that way, people are dying by the thousands and trust is way down the list as far as I'm concerned. I want action, I will get trust enroute to real change. As far as your "THE WORLD IS FLAT", comment I felt was a little over the top. If I don't happen to agree with you it does not give you the right to call me stupid.
Oh by the way 3000 people will die today while we argue.
Cheers
Craig
