Just do not forget that there are financial reasons to be is support
of global warming too. You do not get grant money to study why
everything is good. And all the alternate energy folks have an
incentive to have global warming be a big problem that their alternate
energy production can solve if the government will just create some
tax right offs.

The energy producers do not have as big an incentive. Oil is going to
be valuable as a feedstock for petrochemicals for a long long time.

Do get a copy of Super Freakenomics from the library. It is fun
reading.
