The Threat of Climate Same

     At first, the environmental threat was "global warming".  Then that was debunked; and it became "global cooling".  But, that didn't last long.  So now, the Earth is undergoing deadly "climate change".  However, I contend that this may be statistically insignificant, and that the true threat is actually something entirely different from what the environmentalists have yet named.  I call this danger: "climate same".

As a former ecology major, before I discovered Objectivism, I know a lot about the science of the Earth.  Every species is affected by the environment--as evolution selects the survival of future offspring.  During times of static ecological change there are many fewer environmental forces to propel evolution.  Man evolved to be what the species is because of evolution.  If greater evolutionary progress is to continue, quickly, the Earth's climate must undergo rapid climate change.  On the other hand, the biggest threat to this human evolution is "climate same"--or, very little environmental alteration.

Now, I'm not entirely certain that what the Earth is experiencing, currently, is "climate same".  But, environmentalists have been wrong so many times in the past that it is very possible that there is no climate change occurring beyond the expected norm without Man.  Since, the philosophical, biological reasoning exploring the danger of widespread climate same holds, the environmentalists may have finally found their true pariah.  After all, if you think about it, there's nowhere left to go.  And fundamentally, the environmentalist philosophy, that identifies, as an axiom, that human beings must be the species that is destroyed--whether the threat is an environment that is: up, down, bipolar, or catatonic, is maintained by clinging to its conclusion that Man and his economic production are to be annihilated.  Perhaps, this innate nihilism in the anti-Man, environmentalist philosophy is what appeals to Obama so much--as can be seen so vividly in current news.
