One of my greatest disappointments with our education system is that the ability to think critically is not taught.

 

Maybe on purpose. Dogma, group-think and conventional wisdom are just easier, as thinking is not needed.

Thus the masses can be controlled.

Nothing "maybe" about it...this is why the Department of Education must be eliminated - its agenda is clear.

I was playing golf the other day with a buddy who is generally a climate change denier and he conceded that even if it is happening, "there is nothing we can do about it." I replied: "We ought to at least try, otherwise the grand kids are going to fry."  The blood actually seemed to drain from his face as if that was the first time that ever dawned on him.  I guess he cares about his grandchildren.

It didn't take a lot but it was, no doubt, critical thinking that led to the realization all this burning of fossil fuels might be doing more to the environment than Exxon was letting on.

If the planet is complex enough to clean up the mess of exploding volcanoes, it can certainly clean up localized pollutants.

 

If that wasn't the case, then the air pollution in Chinese and Indian cities would cover the planet like a blanket, no less, beaches on the west coast would have radioactive fallout from the Japanese quake.

 

It's all political hype by people who don't care about you and take advantage of your fears...where their only objective is to control your life from cradle to grave because you don't know any better.
