James Inhofe in \u201cThe Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future.\u201d But in an effort to question Inhofe\u2019s motivation, his ClimateProgress.org reviewer noted that over the years Inhofe has received \u201c$1,352,523 in campaign contributions from the oil and gas industry, including $90,950 from Koch Industries.\u201d<\/p><p>Also challenged, Inhofe\u2019s reliance on divine guidance. Inhofe said \u201cGod\u2019s still up there. The arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous.\u201d But before you dismiss Inhofe, or any other science deniers for their strong religious convictions, remember the great Christian King Canute of Denmark who sat on his throne at water\u2019s edge, to prove the futility of commanding the tide to stop. The clock\u2019s ticking. Who can you trust? Big Oil? Or Lloyds of London?<\/p><p>Environmental economist Bill McKibben wrote in Foreign Policy, it may \u201calready be too late\u201d to stop the impact of our climate change. New evidence keeps piling up \u2026 a new Lloyds of London report urging Munich Re and other insurers to factor climate risks in their pricing models \u2026 Pentagon generals are warning climate change is now a threat to national security \u2026 plus a new report by S&amp;P Rating Services warns of sovereign nation credit rating downgrades spreading globally as the rising costs of climate disasters put pressures on economic growth.<\/p><p>Nobel physicist Robert Laughlin hammered home a similar point in his American Scholar cover story, \u201cThe Earth Doesn\u2019t Care If You Drive a Hybrid,\u201d warning that humans are not only causing today\u2019s climate change disasters, but are fueling Earth\u2019s \u201cSixth Great Species Extinction,\u201d which may result in our civilization disappearing like dinosaurs. Drive a hybrid? Recycle? Eat organic? Solar energy? Band-Aid solutions. Science, technology isn\u2019t the problem.<\/p><p>Inhofe is not alone in believing God\u2019s in charge, humans can\u2019t turn back the tide. The fact is, climate science really is a big \u201choax\u201d to millions of Americans. The Stanford Social Innovation Review diagnosed this trend in \u201cClimate Science as a Culture War\u201d a few years ago. Their research is clear: \u201cThe public debate around climate science is no longer about science, it\u2019s about values, culture and ideology.\u201d And still we keep trying to convince them with more science. They don\u2019t care. Multiple personality disorder: We\u2019re fighting a war for America\u2019s soul.<\/p><p>In its research, Stanford Review build on the Yale University\u2019s \u201cSix Americas\u201d opinion research study, updated annually, which concludes that big \u201cmajorities believe global warming will harm future generations of people and plant and animal species.\u201d But \u201cfour in ten say they feel helpless, disgusted or sad when thinking about global warming.\u201d<\/p><p>Yes, scientists may be certain, but the American soul is deeply divided, at war with itself \u2026 psychologists would diagnosis this a multiple personality disorder \u2026 trapped in multiple mental conflicts between the \u201cSix Americas\u201d \u2026 six separate personalities that don\u2019t get along \u2026 wars accelerating with each new climate disaster\u2026 while distrust of science gets darker \u2026 while the political, ideological, cultural gap between these \u201cSix Americas\u201d widens \u2026 while the hoax metastasizes into an even bigger hoax further dividing Americans \u2026 the clock keeps ticking.<\/p><p>No solution. Just more research: Endless warnings from scientists at UN-IPCC, US-NCA, insurers, generals, rating agencies. Just louder warnings of a \u201c95% certainty\u201d the danger is bigger. But no solution, no consensus, no political will. Why? The super-rich, powerful, conservative 11% segment of \u201cSix Americas\u201d fights hardest, spends more, is more aggressive, nearly doubling from six percent five years ago. Believe passionately. Yes, 11%; 30 million Americans, science-deniers who are fighting a hoax.<\/p><p>This \u201cDismissive America\u201d is one of Yale\u2019s \u201cSix Americas:\u201d They are certain \u201cclimate change is not happening \u2026 does not warrant a national response.\u201d Many are \u201chigh-income, well-educated white men \u2026 very conservative Republicans \u2026 civically active and hold strong religious beliefs \u2026 likely to be evangelical Christian \u2026 strongly endorse individualistic values and oppose most forms of government intervention.\u201d Who are they? Yale doesn\u2019t name names, but the profile may well fit Inhofe\u2019s political donors.<\/p><p>What\u2019s next if the \u201cCulture War\u201d continues? New surveys show 76% of Americans at least passively agree with Inhofe, say climate change is not a top national priority. And that, unfortunately, suggests predictions made by Australian Public Ethics Professor Clive Hamilton in his \u201cRequiem for a Species: Why We Resist the Truth about Climate Change,\u201d may prove all too accurate: Soon Earth will \u201center a chaotic era lasting thousands of years. Whether human beings would still be a force on the planet, or even survive \u2026 one thing seems certain: there will be far fewer of us.\u201d Science is no solution to our culture war. Wrong questions. Yes, it exists. But we\u2019re paralyzed, won\u2019t act in time?<\/p><p>Folks, we\u2019re asking the wrong questions. We have no solutions. No will to act. Yes, Stanford, Yale, McKibben, and millions of others are among the other five \u201cSix Americas\u201d who believe they have a solution. More science. They\u2019re wrong. Just Band-Aids. Silicon Valley capitalists love searching for the next scientific solution, next Big Thing, next profitable IPO.<\/p><p>But nobody has any real solutions to the real problems: A deeply dividing \u201cCulture War,\u201d as climate disasters accelerate \u2026 lost in magical thinking \u2026 six multiple personalities locked in a costly, deadly battle for the Soul of America \u2026 like lost characters in Beckett\u2019s classic, \u201cWaiting for Godot,\u201d endlessly searching for answers in the wrong places, trapped in Sartre\u2019s existential \u201cNo Exit\u201d hell.<\/p><p>Yes, so many wealthy and well-intentioned great minds sure keep trying: The UN-IPCC team of 2,000 scientists now on their fifth assessment since 1988, the 500 scientists at the U.S. National Climate Assessment, NASA\u2019s Jim Hansen, Bill McKibben and his 350.org global network of climate activists, arrested at the White House protesting the Keystone XL pipeline, plus the new \u201cRisky Business\u201d team of former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Hank Paulson and tech billionaire Tom Steyner \u2026 all perfectly rational Americans \u2026 the list goes on.<\/p><p>But they\u2019re asking the wrong questions: Yes, the problem exists, it\u2019s so painfully obvious \u2026 But do we need more research? \u2026 No, we need consensus, political will, action \u2026 We need to stop avoiding the taboo issues \u2026 Ask the right questions \u2026 How do we get a consensus with \u201cSix Americas\u201d so divided? \u2026 Can anyone stop the inevitable? The world\u2019s estimated 50% increase in carbon emissions by 2050? \u2026 How in a world of 190 nations with little trust, who don\u2019t like America telling them to cut emissions that will slow their economic growth \u2026 And where\u2019s the new technology for all nations, not just Silicon Valley\u2019s next profitable Next Big Thing IPO? \u2026 And can we ever stop in time?<\/p><p>Time to refocus America, unite all \u201cSix Americas.\u201d Face the real problems. Admit throwing more science at science-deniers isn\u2019t working. Admit climate science really is a hoax to millions of politicians, energy billionaires, evangelicals.<\/p><p>The \u201cDismissive\u201d just aren\u2019t buying the science. In fact, more science, more technology just toughens, intensifies, accelerates the resolve and resistance of America\u2019s 30 million \u201cDismissives.\u201d Makes them stronger. Widens the cultural gap. Time to refocus, downplay science. Clock\u2019s ticking. Emissions won\u2019t stop.<\/p><p>America needs a new consensus, new political will. Or we may indeed follow the dinosaurs into extinction. Remember Ben Franklin\u2019s warning at the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776: \u201cWe must, indeed, all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.\u201d<\/p><p>Paul B.
