The climate change issue, Crowley says, is monopolized by two sides:
One has got religion, fervently believing in man-made climate change . . .
The other, which is also wrong, thinks it's all too uncertain to cause us to do anything. But let's go back to the "religious" side. How are they hoping to flee from the wrath to come?
. . . the policy "solutions" utopians promote (we will give up cars and use buses and bicycles) assume a malleability of human attitudes and behavior that has little or no basis in social science or historical precedent. We must plan on the basis of how people actually behave, rather than how we wish they would behave.
If it's a religion, it's one without belief in original sin.
