How long would it take for the economy to turn around if we called BS on global warming?

Companies spend a lot of money every year on environmental compliance policies. Reducing emissions and power does not cause growth, it causes shrinking. Restrictions on harvesting our natural resources is like keeping money in the ground when we need it. The bottom line is that the economy needs growth, and a quick fix would be to let go of this Global Warming Dogmatic Religion.

Update:

Thank you 67 Bronco, for clarification's sake, let's talk only about man-made global warming.

    There is something to consider in your analysis. There are several climate experts who state that global warming is cyclical and little earthly effort is going to swing the degrees one way or the other. Those who state the ice shelves of the Artic are disappearing also decline to mention that the ice shelves of the Antarctic have increased in both area covered and thickness of the mass. Until there is substantial information to the contrary let us not have our government put our industry at a disadvantage by over regulating while the rest of the industrial world can pollute to its heart's content as witnessed by China, India, Taiwan and Mexico.

    Please don't be swayed by using the "flat-earthers". in case you do somewhat analysis you will detect a handful (below 10) scientists (genuine ones) that have self belief international warming isn't genuine or no longer led to by using our activities. Of that handful, in case you examine them intently, you will locate that they have got been given a superb type of money by using front-agencies for coal and gasoline manufacturers, to unfold their doubt. you are able to gain that it fairly is ninety 9.9% of climate scientists vs. .a million%. with the aid of fact the media needs to create some form of pretend stability to cause them to look journalistic, they supply those .1percenters equivalent time interior the controversy. there's a lot extra grant money in denying international warming, than there is by using claiming it. there is not any enormous money machines that thrive on international warming, besides the shown fact that there is enormous financial earnings in denying it. in case you look on the typical (by using all yet a handful of demented or marketplace funded scientists) reasons of world warming, you would be conscious all of them have something in undemanding. $$$$ the biggest offenders, oil and coal manufacturers, automobile manufacturers, grimy production, etc., have a extensive stake in denying this. you do no longer choose a complicated degree to entice close the thought of pollution by using the an awful lot destroying the ambience, and that a compromised environment will substitute our climate and heat the Earth. somebody that started out a television channel would not fairly carry any specific sway imho. genuine scientists who're on the reducing fringe of this examine, do. and don't you detect it in any respect curious that every time international warming is stated, people pop out of the woodwork to attack Al Gore? the companies and the present administration in D.C. would not prefer you to have self belief we are inflicting this disaster, otherwise they are able to't proceed to get wealthy. teach your self with genuine technological information. do somewhat analysis.. google the connections of a few of those flat-earthers and locate out who they're aligned with and the place they get their money. do no longer merely repeat talking factors meant to maintain Al Gore from working for President back. Cuz.. that's what that's approximately.. discrediting him. it is so obvious.

    Are you talking about Global Warming or Man Made Global Warming? Because there is a difference. Because one is fact its the other one that is up for debate.

    What Global Warming standards? The US doesn't have any. We rejected the Kyoto protocol (rightfully so I think). We have pollution credits, clean air standards, dumping laws, etc... But those things are very necessary.

    That will never happen all long as so many people have seen proof that global warming is a reality.

    You can't unring a bell.

    And in a few years when there are absolutely no resources left and no alternatives because companies were not forced to? Then what?

    Longer, new technology offers growth. Not believing in science and technology is stupid. Conservatives believe in conservation. Obviously our GOP has to dump the uneducated and bigoted part of our party if we are to move forward.
