nature’s fireworks alone

NASA reports in its newsletter that, far from being a display of nature’s fireworks alone, lightning actually produces gases—and some of those gases may have an effect on (gulp!) global warming!

This is true because these gases partially control the concentration of ozone in the atmosphere, and ozone, of course, is part of the dialogue when it comes to global warming. So here is yet another “scientifically verified” factor that must be studied BEFORE it can be reasonably incorporated into computer models that seek to predict global climate.

What a shame that our mainstream media give us only a sound bite—and a politically correct sound bite at that—when telling us about a vital issue like the global climate that may turn out to be stuff and nonsense in the years to come. Will the politics never cease?
What makes us so arrogant as to think that mankind can control the global climate anyway? It just becomes clearer every day that we don't know how much we don't know.
