An interesting article;

Thanks for posting it, today NBC Nightly News had
a preview of the global warming report expected tomorrow,
as "very likely" something, at least they aren't as ****sure
as the amateur proponents.
And in opposition in flavor, they showed video of
cattle freezing and starving in the central US plains where
4 feet of snow fell in the last few weeks.

But more topical, I am watching a documentary
on George Washington Carver and all the soy and peanut
products he pioneered or invented, soy diesel and plastics
and even newspaper inks are replacing petroleum products,
and are renewable, even the Ford U car made of soy plastic
was surprise to me, even though I have known for 60 years
about soy plastics;

Renewables allow ignoring the global warming
argument, renewables are the way to attack the problem,
wastefulness should be avoided, but CO2 allocations and
reductions in economic activity are not as effective.
