It boggles the mind to think that anyone can be that delusional and still write a coherent sentence.<br /><br />Since when did ethanol production become a climate change mitigation strategy? How is wind and solar energy production inefficient and costly? What exactly are the regulations on food production you don't like? Exactly where are the restrictions on gas production?<br /><br />The only thing imaginary is your commitment to the truth; or your cerebral cortex, whichever.Betty Sanchezhttp://www.bsanchez481.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541703279082624205.post-39123335627810630752012-08-15T07:23:14.078-07:002012-08-15T07:23:14.078-07:00I find it interesting in the graph of the 5 warmes...I find it interesting in the graph of the 5 warmest and 5 coolest years that 3 of the 5 warmest years are after 1995 (and now 4 of 6 with 2012).

Even if you don't care about your fellow man, you need to realize that people don't just quietly die of starvation. What happens is major political unrest, disruptive migrations, etc. The well proven path to lowering rates of population growth are a degree of economic opportunity and the education of women. <br /><br />Steve Savagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04408822620071396633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541703279082624205.post-40570116060673890302012-08-13T19:44:28.586-07:002012-08-13T19:44:28.586-07:00Here is a reality check.

The policy maker should be very concerned. If the drought is not caused by MMGW, then attempts to curb global warming will destroy the economy (and they will destroy the economy, no doubt) will be for naught. That's before we even take into account whether it would be preferable to sink hundreds of trillions of dollars into adaptation as opposed to futile prevention attempts. So yes, data is important.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541703279082624205.post-73714882859743075032012-08-13T10:39:03.687-07:002012-08-13T10:39:03.687-07:00Anonymae (assuming it is many),

The point is that we need to do all that we can to try to stabilize the food supply. If you are a poor person in a grain dependent country, you could care less about endless arguments about data. You have to make choices like school for your child or food, or even whether you can buy food at all.

Actually if you look at what has been happening in the absence of any coordinated international effort, lots of businesses have been innovating to reduce their energy demand. Its a win/win. I believe that the best sustainability moves are the ones that pay for themselves. <br /><br />On the agriculture side the main restrictions have come from places like Europe and Japan. I'll be writing soon about the question of who should get grain when it is in limited supply. I will argue that it is ethically and strategically better to make sure that our poorer grain customers are served before the wealthy nations who effectively delayed technology investment and development in the wheat crop by decadesSteve Savagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04408822620071396633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541703279082624205.post-58136917787747066512012-08-13T09:05:37.911-07:002012-08-13T09:05:37.911-07:00I thought Global average temps were down this year...I thought Global average temps were down this year...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541703279082624205.post-50684763042310279572012-08-13T07:54:21.480-07:002012-08-13T07:54:21.480-07:00You are correct, the steps we have taken to preven...You are correct, the steps we have taken to prevent climate change have caused prices to rise. Burning our feed grains for ethanol, skyrocketing energy prices from inefficient and costly 'novelty' energy production such as wind and solar. Restrictions on oil and gas, nuclear and coal. Costly regulations restricting efficient food production. All self-inflicted wounds to solve an imaginary problem. <br /> Then we should "hope to be around in 20 years and to be proven wrong about my belief that this is our global food supply on climate change." Well sir, you don't have to "hope". In 1988 these same predictions and prognostications were made and have been proven unreliable by empirical evidence. Unfortunately we are still living with the ramifications of decisions made to "battle" climate change from 1988. Another 20 years? We should throw these Malthusian nut-jobs to the lions. <br /> <br />Andrew Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02832132740249057508noreply@blogger.com
