Explanation:  Remember that the science says that the climate of the Earth is getting warmer on average (global warming), that said warming is causing local climates to change in ways we don't fully understand (climate change), and that it is likely that human activities are accelerating the warming (anthropogenic global warming).


Science does not say that we must act now or the Earth will become a desert, or any of the other scary predictions that have been made by pundits and politicians.  It can't say that we aren't creating a potential catastrophe, either.


So, you can accept the theory of global warming, yet reject the political fix of cap and trade.  You don't even have to agree with Al Gore.


Yet, it has been my observation on this and other forums that self described conservatives simply want to reject the idea of global climate change.  Why is that?
