Let's Find Some Middle Ground On Global Warming

It’s been a dangerous life for me.
When I was a grade school kid we were all going to die in the aftermath of a nuclear holocaust.

In High School and College I learned we were actually all going to die under a sheet of ice as global cooling had its way.

Today I know the “truth.”  We are all going to die as global warming destroys the earth and anyone denying that is an Eco-Nazi… or worse.

Well, the truth is, we should all work to be the best stewards of our environment possible.
In terms of environmental enhancement our problem is not temperature extremes, it is temperament extremes. 
The pop-environmental movement is a far greater threat to quality of life and environmental improvement than global warming is.  The vehement “deniers” are an equal threat.
Where there is middle ground, we should find it.
