Circular logic on Climate change…

Well…just read a little article about climate change in Alaska that I just had to comment on since it made me shake my head in disbelief….the governor of Alaska came out in the past few days in favor of accelerated drilling for oil basically everywhere in Alaska…wildlife refuges, offshore, anywhere there may be oil…and your jaw will drop when you hear the reason for this drilling…he wants to drill and burn more oil so that Alaska will have the money to cope with climate change…he said that some villages have to be moved from thawing permafrost and the only way he can see to do that is to make climate change worse…and this is the flaw of not having a national policy on climate change…the states will be left to make the world problem worse to deal with it’s local effects…what a bit of circular logic…and I really am shaking my head…geez…
