Seems you're conflating pollution ("to suffer the damage their pollution inflicts"; "concluded their pollution was harmful"; "emit large amounts of pollution for free") with global warming ("fossil fuel side in the *climate change* (of course now you guys call it "climate change" because that covers EVERYTHING, especially when the planet ISN'T warming) debate").
An unfalsifiable belief or theory or hypothesis isn't science; it's religion. Global warming is an unfalsifiable belief. It's a religion, not much different in kind from a belief in God. Unfalsifiable.
Funny how despite exponential increases in the extraction of so-called "fossil" fuels for decades hasn't just not depleted the stores, but we keep finding more and more. Maybe they're NOT "fossil" fuels. Maybe they ARE a "renewable" resource.
Now, as to your concern about the warming of the planet, can you tell us what is the ideal temperature for each portion of the globe (I assume you don't think the entire planet should be the same temperature all over)? Break the planet down into segments however you choose. Then tell us how and why you chose those segments, tell us what the ideal temperature is for each of those segments, AND then tell us how you arrived at those temperatures being ideal for each segment of the planet.
Can't wait to see the science!
