Is Global Climate Change Man-made?

In case you were wondering...

I've had any number of people ask me where is the best place for evidence of scientific concensus that global warming, or, more correctly, global climate change, is anthropogenic, i.e. man-made; well, here it is....

I finally found (thanks to one of my students) the document that shows this US scientific consensus :

Community Rights: Still Waiting for its Day in Court

[This is an editoral I submitted March 6, 2017 to local newspapers in time for the Lafayette City Council vote on a Climate Bill of Rights ordinance on the following day.] With the conservative front pressing its agenda across the country, Broomfield's city council hesitating to pass their own fracking moratorium and prevent imminent drilling in its residential neighborhoods, and Colorado's AG suing Boulder Country over its moratorium on fracking, it is high time that the nascent community rights movement raise its head and tell the Colorado judiciary: we are still waiting for our day in court. I am going to tell a story here, a story about how the oil and gas trade representation group, the Colorado Oil and Gas Association, sought, and succeeded, in stopping a potent legal threat to its ability to control Colorado government at all levels; about how justice was not served in a Boulder court, and how the public was fooled into thinking it was; and about some legal slight of...

In Support of Wisconsin

[This is a speech I gave on the steps of the Denver capital building on Saturday, February 26, 2011 to about 1,000 to 3,000 people (estimates varied) who had gathered in response to MoveOn's call for a Saturday protest rally in support of the Wisconsin protests. I was the last of five speakers, and the crowd had been led in some group chants in between the speakers, so they were pretty primed by the time I spoke. At many points in my speech, I had to stop until the crowd's yelling in support had quieted down. It was a brisk, sunny Colorado day, with the snow capped peaks of the Rockies in the distance to the west -- it was a beautiful and inspiring event!] In Support of Wisconsin by Rick Casey February 26, 2011 Hello to all you protesters out there standing in support of Wisconsin! It's a great day here in Colorado to be taking a stand for democracy, isn't it? I want to say a few words today in support of all those brave people in Wisconsin that are also taking a...

Dear National Cable & Telecommunications Association: Your stance on net neutrality is incorrect...

In reference to this online article,   "Montana Becomes First State To Set Its Own Net Neutrality Rules"   it states that "An unidentified spokeswoman for the National Cable & Telecommunications Association and USTelecom, which represents the broadband industry, complained about the executive order..." My response in reaction to your response is: GET A CLUE! Destroying the principle of net neutrality is blatantly wrong, and the informed American public is well aware that this is nothing more than a power grab by a corrupt administration to privatize the Internet, which, in reality, is a public commons. The Internet was conceived, built and fostered through the use of public funds and academic institutions who freely shared the knowledge and skills to create it. (see  Where Wizards Stay Up Late , Simon & Schuster, 1999) It is the greatest commons ever created by humanity.  This attempt by a captured federal regulatory body, the FCC, t...
