Barstow Concerned Citizens Group -- Stop the Golden State Water RIP-OFF
Can we stop the climate change/global warming debate?
Let’s look at facts, remember them? Fact: scientists often disagree. Science produces theories, or best guesses. Then scientists look to prove or negate the theory. The scientific community will always debate findings, it is what they do. The fact that some scientists disagree with a theory does not negate the theory! Fact: we live in a closed environment. The amount of air, water, land, and land is fixed. Meanwhile the human population continues to grow, and along with it the need for these resources. The simple fact that more humans create more carbon dioxide is hard to deny. More humans means more impact on the environment, including the atmosphere. What will the results be? Who knows! Fact: it makes sense to do all we can to reduce consumption, protect, and look for alternatives to non-renewable resources that all of our lives depend on.
