A few posts back I mentioned that even faith based constituencies are
lining up behind the science which is 'blaming' humans for damaging the
planet.
I've been pleasantly surprised that the most fundamentalist and
apocalyptic flocks accept the responsibility we have for the care and
maintenance of Earth.
Yeah, when pressed, they may not fully endorse the 'method' (a
difference without distinction?). But on this particular issue the most
rabid anti-science and dogmatic people are willing to admit we must
alter our behavior - - Or else.
