Hmmm. Who to favour?
Set, an internet commenter with a lot of time on his hands who buys three pairs of shoes a month and a new mobile phone twice a year and who would presumably now want to have his consumer lifestyle ethos impacted upon; Who has one poorly-recalled data point he read once on an 'open minded' left of field news outlet on the internet, backed up by a surfeit of self-conviction and an earnest need to be confrontational for no worthwhile reason, other than contrarianism...
...or a global groundswell of scientists and researchers from a swathe of disciplines who have dedicated their lives to their fields and whose competence and respect in those fields is qualified quantitatively by renumeration and employment by relevant and respected institutions, and qualitatively by peer acknowledgment; Who have staring them in the face the thermodynamic consequences of ½Bn years extra atmospheric CO2 deposition in the space of half a millennium*?
Decisions, decisions!

*numbers picked put of ass, just to give set something to grab on to.

- There is power imbalance in the world with its own interests in conflict with perhaps your interests. it nothing mystical when groups gain power. right now itsyurimon
- banks, some time ago it was monarchy and the church. each with its pattern of tyranny. nothing changed that much just a different group asserting itself.yurimon
