Default Happy Earth Day

The last eco-thread was a bit hostile in tenor. I'll take the hit for that, I gave the thread a confrontational title and so it went.

There is considerable back and forth in the discussions of the issues of the environment--lots of passion, many facts, even more opinions.

I have provided a link below to the sworn testimony of Lord Monckton to the US House subcommittee on Energy and Environment. The text is too long to post it here. It takes about 20 minutes to read and includes fifty "red flags"--specific instances of fraud, misrepresentation, or intellectual dishonesty by those who've pushed the global warming agenda.

I think Lord Monckton is spot on. I think the temperature on Earth has almost everything to do with the sun, and almost nothing to do with industrial emissions by humans. Even if you completely disagree, I'd like to hear your logic and your refutations of Monckton's points.

By the way, the sun is as quiet as it's been in a century:
