This is another aspect that has fallen victim to the media's black-and-white brainwashing. People hear "global warming" and immediately either believe it whole-heartedly or discount the entire thing as a complete scam. The truth is it's neither true nor a scam, it's a cover story. That is a crucial distinction that most are not making - it's beyond clear that something is happening with the weather. That does not mean it's because of cow farts or diesel fuel. But the truth would cause mass panic - because if this IS what is happening, it's not quite ELE level, but it's not very far from it.
