SilverSurfer: Having work the Texas Off Shore Oil Rig's for years I know both problems. I have seen what mankind does to our "Ocean". IMO both problems are man's on doing. IMO "accumulation of plastic stuff in our water" has a lot to do with "climate change". I think they should put all the old Whaling Ships to work in some way of sucking up all the "plastic stuff" and refine it in the holes of the ships for other use.
rather than simply accept that the conclusion reached by the majority of climate scientists is correct. The ideological difference is “nothing surprising for anyone who actually does cognitive science,” George Lakoff, a University of California, Berkeley-based cognitive scientist told ThinkProgress. “It has to do with the way in which conservative versus progressive values are understood unconsciously.” Climate change activists simply see the world differently than climate deniers. Some people “seem to believe that it’s all simply getting people the facts, and they will reason to the right conclusion,” Lakoff said. “It doesn’t work that way. Brains don’t work that way.” The difference is stark. In fact, according to the paper, there is a “strongly positive” link between knowledge and belief in anthropogenic climate change — but only for Democrats and Independents. That is, the more knowledgeable Independents and Democrats reported themselves to be, the more likely they were to accept the science of climate change. For Republicans, the level of reported knowledge didn’t matter. [...] http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2016/02/23/3752548/climate-denial-linked-to-politics/ [with comments]
