What I mean by that is your posts are making it sound like global warming is true but people are making it out to be a myth, yet various sources suggest 75% - 98% of people believe in it.

Fair questions. Actually, I'm pointing out that 98% of climate scientists believe that not only is global warming real, it is man-made this time around.

Really?
Not true at all, and according to wehateporn in previous threads it is a tax conspiracy.
So which is it? It absolutely cannot be both.......
Unless that is the median health care bullshit which fails when governments and insurance Cos become involved.

It absolutely can be both.
For instance, Koch Industries is the second-largest privately owned company in the US. the Koch brothers personal net worth is a combined $70 Billion. They are huge players in the oil & coal industries (ie massive pollution) and the timber industry (ie cutting down fuckTons of trees). As they wish to continue making shitloads of money, they fund global warming denial professorships, politicians and 'think tanks' so they can continue raping the planet as they like.
Likewise, they also fund politicians and think tanks that advocate massive tax cuts for the very rich at the expense of everyone else. So who's left holding the bag for any taxes to pay for stuff? The rest of us.
There's all sorts of info out about these guys in particular. They're not at all sly. And they are FAR from the only ones.
