Has Climate Change Become Too Political?

The climate change debate has indeed become too political. The difficulty lies mainly in the fact that climate change is currently a regional issue. Politicians representing coal-producing states worry about the price of dirty energy rising too quickly so they would naturally not support climate change legislation.

Midwestern senators know they are facing serious consequences as temperatures continue to increase and soil becomes considerably less productive. A number of these politicians have sided with what the Americans for Prosperity call 'No Climate Tax Pledge' which takes a stand against climate change legislation. At least ten Midwestern Democrats have declined to support current climate change legislation due to certain principles which they feel have not been met.

Politicians are more concerned with the financial implications of legislation rather than the consequences of not acting. While they are busy hammering out plans for their own particular regions, climate change is accelerating. By the time they come to some sort of agreement, it could be too late.

It is understandable that state senators would go to bat for their state and do what they think is in the best interest for their region. But there is simply not enough time as climate change has already gone beyond what was previously predicted.

The current struggle is between politicians who want to postpone taking action for as long as they can and those who are pushing for immediate action. Those who readily address climate legislation are alarmed at the facts surrounding climate change while those who keep putting off taking action recognize opportunities in developing the technology which will protect the climate. This technology would represent a hefty profit. It's always about profit.

In 1997, a group of U.S. business interests decided that the global climate change negotiations threatened their high positions and profits. They initiated a strong lobbying endeavor resulting in a resolution where the U.S. determined not to agree to any obligations that posed any kind of threat to the U.S. economy. In January 2001, the U.S. withdrew from the Kyoto process.

There is a growing consensus that secret programs are already in place to deal with climate change such as chemtrails. Many officials in lower offices of government have filed complaints which were prompted by a number of concerned citizens about the clouds produced by contrails that expand rather than dissipate. These vapor trails have been named chemtrails due to the chemical residue they leave. It is believed that the government is doing this secretly because they know the public won't agree to it.

Scientists have studied and analyzed some of the chemicals and have pieced together what the government appears to be doing to our atmosphere. The results of some of these studies are very alarming as many experts fear that the government could actually be making the climate situation worse by creating a pendulum effect.

A vast number of people worldwide believe we are rapidly approaching a time in our history that was predicted years ago. Considering the rapid increase in volcano activity and earthquakes along with climate change, the planet seems to be reacting to something. Is it a normal earth cycle? If so, what is creating global warming on other planets? Are all of the planets going through the same cycle?

The climate change debate has indeed become too political. The focus should be on what is causing such extreme environmental changes that our planet has been exhibiting. Why are we experiencing so many earthquakes? Are these earth changes beyond our control?
