Your arguments are badly flawed on the subject - there is NO CONSENSUS. The ice age, again, melted away long before there were people. Unless you think there were dinosaurs driving SUV's and keeping their thermostats too high in the winter and too low in the summer.

For nearing August, that's a bit rare, especially considering we didn't have an overly heavy Snow season this past year. Decent Snow, but not one of the heavier ones since I've been here (16 years). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been ice ages and ther'ell be another ice age in the future.. One thing we don't want to have happen is a sudden polar shift of the Earth's Axis...... That would be a total cluster fuck for the entire planet... That could also spell the end for many lifeforms on Earth most notably for Human kind.. The other thing is there are things in the Cosmos that could instantly wipe us out... Gamma/radiation bursts from neighboring stars that suddenly collapse and go blue.. Plus there are Nutrinos and cosmic rays that cause havoc on the ozone layer as well that constantly bombard the earth... A mass coronal Ejection from the Sun can simply fry the planet to a crisp..

TexasAg1969 Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Whatever. All I know is that we are currently breaking average daily temp records going into a 4th month now in the state and a drought record about to fall as well since the worst I ever saw in the state in 2011. More importantly it is so dry here that this 500 acre wildfire is within a mile of the homes of both of my kids and about 1 1/2 from my home. But the good news is we get to watch multiple airplanes and choppers dropping water and retardant right from our yards.

You and I both know that's not why you attempt to guilt people about climate change. You don't have to support cap and trade, the progressive agenda, to believe in climate change. It's not a genius idea to have the consumer pay more for less, for little progress. The change will come organically in the private sector if the government manages to not interfere. Anything else will be a disaster. Your ideology isn't superior enough to warrant a pass on hypocritical finger pointing.

Want use to buy you a ticket? Your vague assumptions are nonsense. The reason you all had to stop using "man made global warming" is because the science was a double edged sword, it supported and undermined your ideological contentions. So, you changed it to "climate change" because climate does obviously change. The UN reps admitted it was about the redistribution of wealth to poor countries around the globe. "man made global warming" is a farce. but sneaking pollution into the discussions is also nonsense. Nobody wants pollution - that is an entirely different matter. If only we could go back in time and have clear waters in our creeks and rivers free from any pollution - it would be awesome. Seriously - do you really believe that "man made global warming" is a result of cows farting? Where we set our thermostats? Which lightbulb residences use? Which car you drive? I have shown graphs where CO2 levels have risen dramatically. But there has been no corresponding rise in global temps. So, I brought up the destruction of rain forests - MILLIONS OF ACRES EVERY YEAR. Now consider that plants/trees USE CO2 as "food".... You have to use words honestly to make your points, or you are just wrong most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially one the CEOs in charge of these companies won't be alive to see. I believe there is mmgw, but I'll never vote for a politician on that premise alone. Never ever. I don't think the data says what you think it does. So I will never have your level of urgency, I've already laid out several reasons why in this thread alone. Furthermore, I don't think there is a politician who knows enough about the subject to have any credible plan. We are all, every fucking one us, buying a ton of products from China, the biggest polluter on the planet. Everyone includes you. They give no shits who you voted for in Ohio. You will never see zero emissions on government regulations. That is preposterous thinking. The real solution is unequivocally in the private sector. When the technology is there and cheap, China and the US will jump aboard. That's not whataboutism btw. That also goes for the efficiency of the products we buy as well. The government didn't decide your clothes dryer had to run on less electricity, but they started to become available and people bought them. It happened pretty organically. You can still go buy a completely inefficient one if you want, but why? You better pray some greedy CEO is sitting in his italian leather captains chair salivating at the chance to be first to the market. Otherwise, from your perspective of the world, we're fucked. All that aside, the climate evangel you preach doesn't preclude you of your own criticisms. You can't say if I don't believe in your ideology than it's all on me. To start with, there is nothing that says what you believe in will make a global impact. It doesn't matter that you care more, if you're consuming goods from the same polluting companies as the unwashed masses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
