Yet Another Global Warming Scare Report

Here we go again - another global warming scare report. Rather than give you all the details (which you can read here) I'll just give you this quote which I'm sure will sum it up nicely for you:

And co-author Terry Root of Stanford University said: "We truly are standing at the edge of mass extinction" of species.

No hyperbole there. Frankly, I think the world would do fine with a few less species.

The Czech president doesn't think too highly of environmentalism in general:

WASHINGTON, March 9 (UPI) -- Environmentalism is a religion that is based more on political ambitions than science, the president of the Czech Republic warned Friday.

Speaking at the Cato Institute, a public policy think-tank, President Vaclav Klaus said that environmentalists who clamor for policy change to combat global warming "only pretend" to be promoting environmental protection, and are actually being driven by a political agenda.

"Environmentalism should belong in the social sciences," much like the idea of communism or other "-isms" such as feminism, Klaus said, adding that "environmentalism is a religion" that seeks to reorganize the world order as well as social behavior and value systems worldwide.

Well said.
