Nobel Committee doesn't honor 'fads'

Yes, my fellow reader from Prospect Heights found several more items to be thankful for as citizens of the U.S.

But he feels global warming is just a fad, a media hype.

Most of us are aware of the Nobel prizes that are awarded to people who have made valuable contributions to the "good of humanity." As I recall, one of those was given to an American very recently, in recognition of his work re: global warming.

Do you really think the Nobel committee would honor a promoter of a "fad?"

This reader continues to wonder what is happening to the icebergs, the homes of the polar bears and why we all carry water bottles with us because we fear dehydration.

Please support "the greening of America," not the continued destruction of our beautiful country.
