As the Seas Around Them Rise, Louisiana Fisherman Deny Climate Change

You can use all sorts of arguments to "sit on the fence" and delay doing something about man made climate effects. I look at it this way: what are the consequences of doing nothing? Well, they range from "no harm" to "total catastrophe". What are the consequences of working to reduce mans' effects on air and water quality? They range from "developing clean fuel alternatives" to "saving the Earth".

IMO, we need to not put this off for our children and grandchildren to deal with. Even if the Earth itself is not in danger, we will end up with brilliant alternative energy options. There may be some short term costs, but I look at it as a good investment in the future.
