Impossible to trust companies that have spent so much money denying climate change and their own role in it that thousands of people are totally taken in by their lies and spew it out themselves as truth.

Yeah, oil companies are not to be trusted for anything except drilling more oil.

What “climate wrecking?” Food production has increased, contrary to what Kerry himself predicted (we were were supposed to suffering catastrophic shortages of coffee and cocoa by now, but instead are actually growing more). Climate change was supposed to cause increasing deforestation and spread deserts, but forests have instead increased in size, and deserts have shrunk by nearly 15%. Polar bears were supposed to be on the verge of extinction, but now we find that polar bears have so greatly increased in numbers that overpopulation has become a problem. The only “climate wrecking” going on is being done by politicians like Kerry who are causing people to choose between heat and food, and a great transfer of wealth from the world’s poor to Kerry himself and his wealthy friends.

I want to live in your world, sangetsu, where nature is increasing and we all can have cocoa and coffee (as evidence of more food production no less) while we enjoy all the greenery. How do I get there?

Yeah, OK. I'll believe all these politicians when they stop taking money for their campaigns from oil. When they stop taking "gifts" and vacations from oil lobbyists. Cut the apron strings of political footsy and I might give some credibility to this posturing by the corrupt political class.
