Natural warming. Natural cooling.
Man mad warming.
Man made cooling.
Green energy has turned into an industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year.

I just don't see why so much money has to be spent in 'cutting back' energy use.
We should be saving money, not spending hundreds of billions more.

Greedy corporations are now involved and turned it into a money thing.
