But see, you don't fight this kind of hate and denial with facts and figures or reasoned argument. They've literally turned "facts and reason" into a leftist plot. The only approach I can think of is massive spending to publically shame the deniers: You hate welfare queens? Here's the biggest one of them all, Exxon. You hate cowardice? Here's the biggest coward of all...they're afraid to tackle climate change because they know for a fact they don't have the skills and technology. You love America? Here's the most un-American company of all...they shipped # dollars offshore away from helping other Americans, etc...
A massive unrelenting campaign of TV ads, movies, celebs, you name it, to publically shame the Kochs and Exxons of the world.
Funded by who, the people with the most to lose by the changes we need to make are the same ones with some of the deepest pockets. The fossil fuel industry has over $1 Trillion in sales a year world wide.
The truth will out in the end, it just takes time, by trying to play the same game the fossil fuel sector is, we could make the situation worse not better.The truth will out? What kind of drivel is that? I heard something on the radio the other day. It was a story about President James Madison's wife writing to him about women's rights to vote. It took over 100 years from the time of her writing to when women had the right to vote. If you call that "the truth will out...and make things right" you're nuts. We don't have that long to do something about GCC.
Who can fund it? If there was a coordinated global effort, I'd say started by a celebrity, I'll bet the funding could be found to do all the things I mentioned. Warren Buffett? 1 bil. Bill Gates? 1 bil. Oprah? 250 mil. And that's just three people.
We´re already doing much of that, short of armed rebellion there´s not much more that can be done besides suing the people responsible. And if things continue the way they are now then there probably will be the use of force to remove governments that are unwilling to do anything.
My point about the truth is, it´s impossible to hide something as massive as global climate change, so the frauds trying to fool the public can´t keep it up much longer and will also have to resort to force to impose the kind of madness we´re seeing now.
