The global warming believers say that it would be fooli***o ignore the threat, because if it materializes, it will be too late. They contend that it would only be prudent to assume the threat is real and act accordingly. But I doubt that many people realize just what level of sacrifice is called for as the proper reaction to global warming if you believe in it. Certainly there is no reason to question the global warming science if you don’t realize how much sacrifice it requires. Most people think they can do their part to combat climate change by recycling, keeping their cars tuned up, buying special light bulbs, combining car trips, and saying they care. But those things are tiny compared to the actual fare that will be collected once everybody gets onboard the global warming train with the signing of the Kyoto treaty. This will require a large portion of your income and it won’t be voluntary. The cost will not be apparent until after the Kyoto treaty is signed. Then the cost will become the law of the land. The Kyoto treaty is like a purchase order that requires payment for the cure to a problem that might or might not be real. But the payment is very real, and very large. Judging by the outcry over the price of gasoline going up by $1.50 per gallon, I can assure you than virtually nobody would believe in the threat of global warming if they realized what it will cost them.
