It's really sad that the environment is a political issue, and people will go to any means to deny something significant. Let's just say that global warming is false. Should we really continue doing the things that cause it? Is polluting some kind of pro-conservative way of life?

I completely agree. The safe thing to do is to assume global warming is real... even if it's not, good things will come out of it.

 

I don't think that is necessarily wholly true.

The proposed responses to counterracting "man-made" global warming may be far, far more drastic, expensive, and time consuming (and have completely different methods) than what is needed for lowering pollution levels to acceptibility, I might hazard to guess.  In other words, it would be nice to see how the situation really is, then act upon that.

Furthermore, raising an uproar over what may be a worldwide deception (or, at the very least, horrificly bad science) is not advocating that we go around trashing the planet.  Rather, it means we really need to examine how the scientific and media communities work.
