Accidental Promotion of the Global Warming Hoax

    A participant on the Neil Cavuto Fox News program this Saturday morning said the SCIENCE has proven the disastrous effects of carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere. There were no objections to this statement among the other participants. This bothers me horrendously, because it implied to the general viewing public that this is a correct assertion, since it was not challenged by any of the panel experts.
    However the fact is, that this is a hoax, which continues to be perpetuated by those expecting to make some kind of personal profit in its acceptance. The government is particularly anxious to have the public accept this assertion, because it brings tremendous new opportunities for taxation, with subsequent increase in government size and power.
    Most people now have a high school education, part of which was to take a course in chemistry and another course in physics. With discussions of variability on quality of the courses aside, one can be sure that anyone taking these courses received at least a smattering of scientific thought process plus some basic understandings of chemistry and physics principles. The problem is that most these graduates, do not have the confidence of questionable thinking when so-called experts come out with new concepts, such as carbon dioxide relating to global warming. One of the reasons for this is that the experts develop their own lexicon of terms which intimidate average persons.
    For a great many years all Roman Catholic masses were conducted completely in Latin. Similarly, the medical profession established use of Latin terms for various diseases and treatments. Botanists and others have done the same. While there is some practicality in using Latin designations, by and large this was done in order to preserve in the public eye a maintenance of esteem esteem for priests, medical doctors. Now big science has seized on this opportunity as well. But although, new terms are developed which can be intimidating to the public, all should be explainable to any person of reasonable intelligence who has received a high school degree. If not, the correct assumption would be that the perpetrator is hoodwinking the general public, and that is what is occurring in a matter of carbon dioxide relating to global warming.
