A recent article by former EnCana CEO Gwynn Morgan shed some light on the information warfare that has always been at the center of the climate change debate. This is not in reference to the juvenile points of view that either ignore the reality of climate change or – at the other end of the spectrum – assume that human beings can exist as a species without impacting the environment. Rather, the real debates are about: 1) the impact of fossil fuels on the environment, both in relative comparison to other sources of human activity (e.g. living/breathing, agriculture) and in direct comparison to other sources of energy (wind, solar, etc); and 2) the length of time required to fully deploy renewable energy on a global scale.
