When I am in a debate with those on the right who want to Deny, Delay and Do Nothing about Global Climate Change
When they spew “There is no proof…” “All scientists don’t agree..” “I don’t believe mankind can have any impact on the Climate” “Climate Change is a Natural Process” or other misleading talking points
I give them this quote:
"Even if there's just a one percent chance of the unimaginable coming due, act as if it is a certainty. It's not about analysis, it’s about our response. Justified or not, fact-based or not, our response is what matters."
For most, they react That’s a stupid reason How Idiotic to take unjustified actions and waste our money based on contrived evidence without facts to support the necessity
I merely reply
If that reason was good enough for VP Cheney to justify sinking billions of dollars and the lives of thousands of American Troops into the black hole of Iraq, to preserve, protect and defend His homeland
Then it should be good enough to justify actions that will
