<p>Does having a shelf full of unbuilt kits make me a collectivist? <span class="smiley">[;)]</span></p><p>I agree with Dave and many others here, in that there is so much dogma and rhetoric from both sides of the aisle that it's hard to have a rational discussion about climate change anymore. It has become such a polarized debate that most everyone falls into one camp or the other, which is great for ratings or getting votes or selling books, but not so great for having a rational debate that leads to anything productive; most times the debate devolves into both sides shouting "We're right and they're wrong" with their fingers in their ears. That's why I tend to ignore the talk radio hosts and the politicians (current and former!) and stick with reading boring scientific research. While there is a large (and growing) body of evidence that supports the hypothesis that the overall world climate is in a warming trend, we just don't know enough yet to understand why. </p><p>Regardless, as others have wisely pointed out, saving energy equals less dependence on foreign energy sources, and saving energy also equals saving money, which is always a good thing! </p><p> </p><p> </p>
