I'm Canadian. I won't be voting for democrats or republicans, and incidentally I voted for the Conservatives in our last federal election.

Ignore the democratic slant that you could apply. I honestly didn't observe his 'take action, inform' closing as a 'vote democrat' campaign. Granted, I'm not living in the same polarized political climate.

I took it as a sound argument that merits discussion. Try and make it non-partisan. If there are two choices; action or non-action, would you honestly select non-action?

I watched this video and tried to refute the logical argument selected, and I'm trying to spark discourse towards two ends. First, can someone poke a hole in the argument presented. Second, because I appreciate the way it is presented, to spread the word.

Seems that he has videos that respond to various criticisms (including that posted by Ace). He tries to take it lightheartedly and as such is a little harder to take seriously. It looks like this has been dug a bunch already. Actually I'm finding I'm late to the party... has this been brought up before here?

If you take the time to watch, skip Patching Holes #1 and go directly to #2 and #3.


Edit the Third -

I'd really like someone to take the time to watch at least #3. I've read compelling remarks for and against human-caused climate change on these boards; this video presents an easy, light hearted, but complelling argument as well. I don't know if it is really that solid because I'm already biased towards his poistion. However if someone was on the fence it may pull them to one side or the other.

Also, granted to mathew330, I can see now how you perceived the video as political, but I'd still like to try to keep this non-partisan.
