About 10 years back I was sitting in the booth adjacent to him and Calista Flockhardt at The Palm IN L.A.
They were enjoying the delicious flame-grilled CO2-producing steaks...along with everyone else.
I stepped out front for a smoke...and was starting to go back in, just as they were leaving (I even held the door for them...received no "Thank You").
At the curb, a big ol' gass-guzzling limo pulled up to take 'em away.
Do as I say...not as I do.

So we should ignore Ford because he's not a climate scientist? I can understand that. But then why should we ignore the majority of climate scientists whose research jives with what Ford is saying?

Harrison Ford is a good man. When you have a position of power and a voice through the media, you should take a stand for what you believe in.
Let us not forget that almost every scientist in the world has come to the conclusion through studying the data, that man is causing global warming at an accelerated rate, irregardless of any natural cycle we may be going through.
Also, if you lived in Vegas over the summer, you wouldn't be saying things like, a little warming never hurt anyone. LOL Wow.
Also, I saw someone post that you don't just wake up and it's 180 degrees...but that's not quite right.. The Heat index in IRAN, I believe it was, was up to 164 degrees last summer, people died and were hospitalized.
Now is the time to take action. (I don't say this because I want a damn carbon tax-so please don't reply with that nonsense)
You say there is a debate? Then follow the money...follow the money right back to the big fossil fuel companies that run this planet. There's your debate.

If you ever saw the episode of South Park where everyone got a Prius and they were all smug and thought their own farts smelled wonderful, that's how I see the AGW crowd. I know it's not fair, but that is the mental picture I get. And I am likely to be wrong in my thinking, but I want so badly to at least not have the smug folks be right. It's petty and childish, but it's what drives me to reject the status quo.

They wouldn't all live on the coasts they continually tell us are going to be catastrophically inundated like this:

we don't need to colonize other celestial bodies, we need to let nature take it's course and eliminate the nastiness that is "humanity".

And what you really mean by that is everyone but you and those you deem worthy of living. Oi vey!

I have heard Harrison Ford being intervieiwd in the past and he doesn't strike me as particularly smart. He should stick to acting, although, for all we know he is being given his "lines" when it comes to climate change and he is just acting the script he was given.
