The vast majority of them aren't getting into the debate. They do their work and report their findings. I'm talking about everyone else. The UN bureaucrats, national politicians, media wonks, and NGOs who are hyping this situation up to biblical plague propertions. The amount of scare tactics and outright lies being spewed to pass more regulations, increase taxes, and push through agendas is mind numbing.

How many of these people are pushing for more hydroelectric or nuclear power plants? Wind and solar are nonstarters. They may be good for niche applications, but they aren't going to come close to powering a modern industrial civilization. Then again groups like the WWF think we should all live like people in Cuba, so from their point of view, wind and solar may be enough.
