Is It Hot in Here?
Good news: global warming is o.k.. In fact, global warming will cause more rain, and with the extra rain and the extra CO2, the plants will grow better, so we won’t have to worry about the rainforests, either. It’s all natural, anyway, and has nothing to do with man-made emissions. The only reason we should worry about fossil fuels is that we won’t have enough to run cars and ships and trucks and planes, and we need those so we can improve the balance of trade. Strangely, Kinniworth doesn’t recommend reliance on nuclear power, or at least not uranium-based nukes, although he doesn’t recommend an alternative. Perhaps he advocates a return to sail? He generates enough hot air himself.
