No matter whether man made global warming is true or not, the proposed solutions to deal with that problem are what we NEED to do for many other reasons... such as improving people's health, becoming less dependent on oil and coal...

Bottom line, let the scientists argue global warming, but decrease pollution and oil/coal use at the same time. It's the safest thing to do.

it is if you're not poor.

The method they are going to use is to make cheep energy as expensive as green energy. If you live paycheck to paycheck, and you are told it's now going to cost $350 more to heat your house, I am not sure that's the "safest thing to do".

My personal views, is I don't mind paying $350 more to help find an alternative solution to energy. I however, don't need it to eat. Millions do.

If you're poor, ride the bus or the train (both of which use much less fuel per passenger). The West's (especially USA's) fascination with the automobile is a big part of the problem.
