Martin Wolf: Green energy will require a green tax code

Great argument, but as always, there is another side to this coin. I am certainly not in the environmental camp, but I do agree that we are presently in climate change conditions. However, I have a great deal of difficulty in hearing from the alleged scientific community that the change is purely being caused by humans as this rhetoric is similar to evolution/creation. If the reports are correct than this group must also believe that geologic history is all wrong. Ergo, no ice age ever existed, nor did any glaciers ever cover most of North America. If so, I wish that they would explain how most of the East Coast has something called a piedmont area? Piedmont refers to a particular type of soil condition and I sure would like an alternative view on how it was created.
The accepted truth is that it was made by a glacier.

Since this planet has had many climatic changes in it's history, and all before humans and fossil fuel, it is very difficult to believe that the emphasis on this single item of air pollution remains dubious. One large active volcano puts out more atmospheric debris in one single year than all of the coal fired electric plants.
While it is an admirable concept to reduce our emissions it is also wise to admit that we cannot control natural events. In the "little ice age" there were only cows and horses and consequently, a little methane. If one adheres to present thinking - than obviously, that was the cause.

Nuclear proliferation is a more immediate danger to our planet than global warming, but there is no urgency to deal with this threat. That leads me to believe the climate debate is mostly noise and little or no action. In fact, I think it has taken the place of traditional religion.

Iran`s nuclear program can easily be stopped. All the world needs to do is stop buying Iranian oil. Ironically, China ,especially, refuses to do this because its hunger for fossil fuel.

Golbal Warming is an Al Gore fraud. The truth about the junk science is coming out. Once it all comes out there should be criminal charges. Wolf's "risk of being wrong" comment can be used in any argument on either side.

The article states that if we stop global warming and are wrong that there are no negative consequences. What IF we spend trillions to cool the earth, the earth is cooling on
its's own and the earth's orbit takes a cylical shift?
These salesmen can send us into a big, cold, deep freeze.

.....nothing like a centralized, one size fits all federal government

So the "green" plan is to put profitable coal/oil/gas companies out of business costing thousands of jobs and billions in tax revenue. These will be replaced by "green" companies which will require endless government subsidies and tax credits. Only a liberal could love it.
