Have you noticed how ever global warming story has a disaster theme?  Never is there a good news story about how Alaska or Canada will have better growing seasons and become more self-sufficient.  No articles on more rain caused by increased moisture in the atmosphere reducing the droughts in California?  It's always bad news. In particular bad news leading to you paying for some dufus to do something that is not needed.  It's just a scam to get money from the rubes - and it's working well.
