Chapter 13 DOES POLLUTION CAUSE GLOBAL WARMING? NOTES: 1. Just a few of the innumerable online sources documenting negative health effects of pollution on human beings: a) Health Effects of Air Pollution, b) Natural Resources Defense Council, c) Smog Effects, d) Medical Effects of Air Pollutants , e) Effects of Air Pollution on Births in Los Angeles, f) Effects of Pollution on Hearing and Balance, g) World Health Organization, h) Air Pollution Kills 2 Million Per Year, i) United States, j) China, k) India, l) Sri Lanka, m) International Air Pollution Statistics. 2. a) Air Pollution Effects on Plants and Animals, b) Wild Life and Pollution, c) Human Infectious Diseases Due to Water Pollution, d) Water Pollution Effects, e) Bizarre Pollution Effects on Animals, f) Coral Reefs in Crises. 3. The evidence that human-induced pollution is causing significant adverse effects to the planetary environment of us all is overwhelming and, perhaps greater than evidence for almost all other documented scientific evidence combined. Because determining negative effects of human-induced pollution is a highly complex science involving a great many inter-acting global warming, global dimming and other complex processes, right-wing media hacks and bought-and-paid-for corporate frauds posing as "scientists", are rather easily able to deceive portions of the general American public by pulling a few "facts" out of context. People who don't study evidence or read much for themselves and thus, depend on crooked priests, preachers and political hacks to explain things for them, are accustomed to short, simple sounding sound-bite explanations, of which regarding the severe negative effects of human-induced global pollution, there aren't any, other than for the human race to abandon the planet entirely and start all over somewhere else. One might logically ask, if right-wing media hacks and corporate shill scientists know so much about what is true regarding pollution, why aren't they trying to do something about what is overwhelmingly documented to be deadly to their own children and grandchildren, rather than wasting everybody's time disputing Global Warming causes. One must conclude that Thomas Jefferson was indeed truly wrong about all people being created equal, especially in the ethics, morality and common sense departments.
