Ok...I will expand on my NO:
I am of the opinion that recent human activity (auto emissions, utilities, heavy industry) is responsible for spewing millions of tons of greenhouse gases (mostly CO2) into the atmosphere every year and that those greenhouse gases have a degrading effect that is very likely to have a long term impact on the earth’s environment, including climate.
I am also of the opinion that action should be taken at the national level (and through international agreements) that result in policy recommendations that limit or contain those greenhouse gas emissions in the future and that are both environmentally and economically sustainable.
From most polling data I have seen, I believe a majority of Americans share that opinion.
And finally, I am of the opinion that Exon.Mobil and related companies/industries will continue to spend $millions, perhaps $billions, to spread misinformation with the hope of stalling or preventing such federal policy solutions and/or international agreements.
