Umm, what's the difference between the bible and tales about Santa Claus? Seriously? A little bit of historical truth with piles of lore on top?

I still don't understand why people drop Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, but stick with Jesus. Hasn't everybody read The Emperor's New Clothes?

If we multiply that by 10 we have balanced the excess births and stopped the population explosion :p

The only option we have is to turn those reserves into something sustainable.

You may want to look into how long coal, shale oil and shale gas are projected to last in the US. And not the "centuries!!!1!" idiots, but real forecasts.

Building out renewable energy has been a boon to industry and employment in the countries that have pushed it.

Plant breeding and GM hasn't shown any yield improvements or adaptation to drought in years.

Yes, they are called RCPs (Representative Concentration Pathways), what used to be the "scenarios" in older reports, and except for the dip in 2008/2009 global emissions were always above the worst case scenario. 63% of all CO2 has been emitted since scientists began to warn about AGW so there is no indication that the world will deviate from the worst case BAU path.

There was no "pause." The "slowdown" was within one sigma of the long term trend and the temperature never left the one sigma band, as Tamino has showed again and again. With newer data gathering and improved interpolation of polar regions even the "slowdown" disappers mostly.

So because you don't like the results it must be bad science?

And most of the things printed in scientific papers were wildly accurate.

Diesel. Yum!

Once we are past peak liquid fuels in the '20s it's time to lose sleep.

The primary energy for food is fossil fuel today. A calorie of food needs about 8 to 10 calories of fossil fuel to make and distribute in the developed nations.
