Future Climate?
Slide 8 in this series.
The ice core data we looked at in the history section gave us an indication of how the temperature will be changing in the future. As one sees where we are on the curve below we could be entering a downward trend in climate temperature. The modelling section showed us how the solar activity can affect us, and given how that activity is reducing it speaks also to the potential of a cooling period. This would seem more probable than having a continued warming trend as AGW proscribes.
Bill Nye captures the most bizzare claim in policy making.
We should revisit occasionally what the proper role of government is. As the constitution was a good sense of direction, we need a core set of principles to add in order to deal with the future.
So many want to engineer society, remove risk, assist certain groups, rather than let individuals thrive and raise communities. Why?
Is Democracy where we all "get it good and hard" or is it the best means to a free society?
Should we roll with the special interests, or make the government achieve its proper role, what is that role, and how to do this?
When do deficits and governments become too large?
Government is becoming more elitist while trying to sell corrections to problems it created, what makes this possible?
This section offers some conclusions for all of the sections. In other words what might someone come away with from all of these ideas.
