This reminds me of the reaction to Silent Spring, when certain interested
parties said that Rachel Carson was essentially a reactionary, or when the
tobacco companies claimed for years that there was no definite proof
between smoking their fine products and that thing called lung cancer.

It doesn't matter in one sense if global warming is a "natural" event or whether
we are accelerating it or not. The point is that Earth does go through extreme

whining about who said what and why. When nature comes barreling in, it won't
give a rat's ass about liberals or conservatives or anyone else.
