Doggedly Denying Global Warming

Remember the story about the man was taken to court because his dog bit his neighbour?

No, but something tells me you're going to remedy that.

His defence was that he didn't own a dog, his dog wasn't violent, and while it may have bitten others, it didn't bite the neighbour in question.

Hmm. You can't accuse him of leaving any angle uncovered.

Indeed. Something reminded me of that recently.

Well?

The so-called "global warming denier" crowd. The proverbial "plain as the nose on your face" doesn't seem to work for them.

That's a bit harsh. What's their argument?

They seem to be too intelligent to be tied down by one argument. Over time, they seem to have argued the following:

1. Global Warming doesn't exist - the Earth isn't warming at all.
2. Well, maybe it is, but humans didn't cause it.
3. Well, maybe we did, but there's nothing we can do to reverse it.
4. Well, maybe there is, but it'd cost too much.

Interesting arguments. Must be popular among the dimwitted.

Very. And among libertarians.

Same difference.

Naah, now you're too harsh. But sometimes, I worry.
