i think it should be basic human logic that we should have as little of an impact on environental change as possible. this petition insinuates that mankind is actually "helping" the environment through our overconsumption of fuel. so, you want to call man made global warming 'junk science'? fine so be it. but they then go on to battle supposed junk science with junk science...and people are falling for it...why? because thats exactly the answer they want to hear.

We actually don't know how much impact on Global Warming we are having or even if Global Warming is real. The more you look into it the more you will find this out.

Who started the above petition and why
Frederick Seitz
Past President, National Academy of Sciences, U.S.A.
President Emeritus, Rockefeller University
The United States is very close to adopting an international agreement that would ration the use of energy and of technologies that depend upon coal, oil, and natural gas and some other organic compounds.
This treaty is, in our opinion, based upon flawed ideas. Research data on climate change do not show that human use of hydrocarbons is harmful. To the contrary, there is good evidence that increased atmospheric carbon dioxide is environmentally helpful.
The proposed agreement would have very negative effects upon the technology of nations throughout the world, especially those that are currently attempting to lift from poverty and provide opportunities to the over 4 billion people in technologically underdeveloped countries.
It is especially important for America to hear from its citizens who have the training necessary to evaluate the relevant data and offer sound advice.
We urge you to sign and return the petition card. If you would like more cards for use by your colleagues, these will be sent.
Junk Science

considering that we know how we could possibly be doing harm, and considering that the worst case scenario of acting on an incorrect theory is wasted money (combined with a freedom from dependancy on fossil fuels which should pay back nicely). then consider that the worst case scenario of not acting on a correct theory (infinite possibilities of shittiness)
so how is it illogical to take steps to reduce our supposed impact on the environment? especially if it means we can tell saudi arabia to quit fist****ing us and get lost

I hate theories passed off as fact - I take your reasoning on board and those are good reasons, however the evidence against * global warming being caused by CO2 if indeed it is a result of mans activity at all or even happening are at least as great. You want Atomic Power as a safe alternative and "quick fix" as many Environmentalist Global Warming advocates like this want?
People talk about 'wasted money' as if it didn't matter.
They forget that the practical effect of this waste that will be caused by implementation of Kyoto is people's livelihoods- jobs lost, people's lives destroyed.
It's a heck of a thing to ask without firm proof of the need. That's in dispute.

While there is plenty of debate about global warming (in Australia people are scratching their head, heat waves where there hasn't been heat waves before, storms at odd times of year, droughts that never end - Global Warming or Not? Both sides have valid points) I would like to see pollution, all pollution, reduced just for the sake of reducing pollution - in order to live in a healthier world.
There may be uncertainty about whether our polluting is destroying the ozone layer and leading to global warming - but we know the things polluting does do - the smog, the acid rains and so forth. And we know the sources of dirty power - coal, oil and the like are not infinite. Eventually, at our rate of consumption, they will run out - and when the oil industry dies alot of people will be out of a job, and a lot of people will be out of pocket. Logically it seems to me it would be wiser to take steps now to make changes, in order to prepare for the future - a cleaner and more secure future.
And if such preparation happens to reduce the theorised risk of global warming it would be a benefit. I mean, drawing parallels in an unsuitable fashion - George W. Bush's administration preached the practice of preempting. Going to war on shaky evidence against a nation that may or may not have been a threat - something that many people supported. Now then we have a theory that has a lot of support from the scientific community, we've found a hole in the ozone layer, we are seeing odd things happening with the weather, they are recording the decline in the ice caps and predicting what that increase of water will do to the worlds oceans. I'll admit I'm not certain, but there seems to be enough evidence to argue rationally that maybe, just maybe, it might be wise to consider the alternatives. To consider erring on the side of caution.

a simple way to think of global warming is the experiment you do in high school with pond weed
put it in water...shine a light on it...and it makes bubbles...the brighter the light, the faster the reaction...the hotter it is, the faster the reaction
the pond weed is using carbon dioxide and producing oxygen
the same happens to the earth as a whole
the more it warms up...the faster the trees etc, convert carbon dioxide to oxygen and thus help to restore the balance
the only problem is that something like 70% of the forests of 200 years ago have been cut down
