Has anyone else noted the endless back and forth on the causes of Climate Change, and the simple conclusion that we all use the debate to avoid actually dealing with this unfortunate reality?
I have noted a pattern in the larger issue, in that most persons of any education on the subject tend to agree we are experiencing an increase in temperatures, at a rate not seen before in the records we can gain access to. This leads to a conclusion that perhaps we should address the impacts such changes will have on our species as a whole.
Yet, instead of trying to deal with expanding desert areas, fluctuating weather patterns, changes in ocean levels, and damage to coastal areas expected from this climate change....we spend our time beating the long dead CO2 horse, and try to find blame for something that is likely to hurt many people over a very long period of time.
Why cant we all just agree to disagree on the causes, and focus on the actual issues?
