Yesterday, American journalist Don Feder in Front Page Mag.
"Every newborn baby in Australia represents a potent source of greenhouse gas emissions for an average of 80 years, not simply by breathing but by the profligate consumption of resources typical of our society," Walters writes.
The left is incapable of viewing individuals as anything other than polluters, never as producers or innovators -- let alone seeing them in spiritual terms, as manifestations of God's goodness.
Global Warming is the left's perfect storm -- a force to demolish faith, family and freedom. There's no area of our lives that can't be invaded -- taxed, controlled, regulated or obliterated -- in the name of serving and protecting the planet.
Unlike food production and oil reserves, the myth of man-made Global Warming is resistant to factual analysis. The left treats it as revealed truth and skeptics are scorned as heretics and troglodytes -- the scientific equivalent of Holocaust-deniers. Al Gore, the movement's P.T. Barnum-cum-Grand Inquisitor, compares them to the cranks who believe the earth is flat.
If Global Warming didn't exist, the left would have to invent it. In fact, they did. As Nigel Calder, former editor of the British magazine New Scientist explains: "Twenty years ago, climate research became politicized in favor of one particular hypothesis, which redefined the study as the effect of the study of greenhouse gasses. As a result, the rebellious spirits essential for innovative and trustworthy science are greeted with impediments to their research careers."
Still, the evidence is there for those not blinded by dogma. Al Gore's brain is melting faster than the Arctic ice cap, which is making a spectacular comeback.
With a delicious touch of irony, a typical Australian response to the American far-right might be encapsulated in this picture found at Tim Blair's climate change denialist blog.
