Why Won't AGW Believers Make Deals?? Or "I'd Rather Be Right..."

By Armed Liberal on March 15, 2010 6:36 PM

In the course of my comment back-and-forth with Chris a thought popped up that I wanted to share.

Why hasn't the AGW community lowered the claims to authority - moved the argument to behind-the-scenes work to clarify and improve the data and modeling behind their claims - and stepped forward from a policy point of view to find allies (people like me) who think we need to conserve energy for strategic, local environmental, or economic/financial reasons?

Why not take a partial win on policy?

I don't get it. Any thoughts??
