L8112 ★☆☆☆☆ (115)	my advice would be to bolt from this forum as there are a group of devoted climate change deniers who will lay to waste any conversations on the topic, and will dismiss any sort of evidence from credible institutions such as NASA, not with counter facts but with non sequitur statements or hand waving. They learned this tactic from their father Blanald Flump- deception, constantly speaking falsehoods, and then lying ad infinitum is how the script goes. Currently Flump and his cronies are in the process of staging yet another false flag attack to kick start a war with Iran, because they have oil, and also the US needs to sell more bombs and guns-war as a form of commerce. Iran is the last ripe fruit to be picked off, a war with China might be enticing if they didnt also have nukes, so the decision has been made: Iran. This is what the US has been doing for decades.. But thats another topic. Edited on 21-06-2019 02:19

What does it take to finally convince them climate change isn't a hoax? I am amazed at the wide spread indifference! A lot of people watch the Al Gore award winning movie, got excited for a while. Pretty much everyone of his predictions, projections, and prophesies turned out false. Mostly, we see only normal weather events, that have been going on since the beginning of written history. Maybe most people don't really get into all the many intricate details, but the have an intuitive feeling, that something isn't quite right. Mostly, it's presented as many scams, you are asked for money, and you have to do it, right now, or you are going to miss out on a great deal. It's a gamble, and the payoff doesn't really make it worth the risk, or the cost to get in on it. For me, the concentration of CO2, 0.04%, of the 260 billion cubic miles of atmosphere, is an extremely tiny number. One degree celsius temperature increase, spread out over more than a hundred years, is tiny. The relationship and correlation between the two, is extremely complex. Makes no sense to me, how anyone would have noticed, or put it together. Both the CO2 content and temperature, can't be measured on a global scale, the approximation would have a margin of error, that greatly exceeds the numbers being discussed. They are talking about very small numbers, but need highly precise measurements, many of which weren't possible 50 years ago. CO2 is an essential gas, critical to life on this planet. All life on earth, is centered around carbon. We get the carbon from the foods we consume. The only thing pulling carbon out of the environment, are plants, which get the carbon from CO2. Everything else eats plants, or something that eat plants. Plants do well in a warmer climate, and much higher levels of CO2. Climate Change wish to reduce and limit atmospheric CO2, which is bad for plants, reduces available food. I don't buy that 0.04% is a crisis, when plants do incredibly well in greenhouses augment with 1-3% CO2. The a huge shift in decimal places. Easy enough to verify online, or locally, if you have commercial greenhouses, since that extra CO2 is cheap, but the results are amazing. Plants grow fast, strong, healthier, all things great to boost profits. Sometimes, science guys get it wrong. Might look interesting and exciting on a computer screen, but just doesn't pan out in reality. Climate Change is one of those things.

What does it take to finally convince them climate change isn't a hoax? I am amazed at the wide spread indifference! Several things must happen: * Define 'climate change'. This is so far a meaningless buzzword. * Define 'global warming'. This is so far a meaningless buzzword. * Falsify the 1st law of thermodynamics. This will require showing that it is possible to utterly destroy energy or that you can create energy out of nothing. * Falsify the 2nd law of thermodynamics. This will require showing that entropy does in fact decrease in a closed system. One way to do this is to show that you can heat a warmer object with a colder one. * Falsify the Stefan-Boltzmann law. This will require showing that you can decrease light emitted from the same or increasing thermal energy (so-called blackbody radiance) from the same surface. Only by accomplishing ALL of these requirements will it be possible to construct a theory concerning 'climate change' or 'global warming' that may be a theory of science. Until you do so, 'climate change' is a hoax. The Parrot Killer Debunked in my sig. - tmiddles Google keeps track of paranoid talk and i'm not on their list.

It would be what he believes. And logic is based on what an individual believes to be true. What does the raw data actually show us? How was it collected during the period being observed? The margin of error is very large, and the amount of change very small, which makes it an entirely subjective interpretation. I just tend to interpret it differently. I think it would be a much bigger man-made crisis, by following all the proposed changes, the climatologist believe will save the planet, in a few hundred years, if they are correct, in both the cause, and the cure. The problem remains a subjective interpretation, of a data set, that could be looked at in other ways. I just don't have any confidence in any of it, just guess. My guess, it's BS. From history, I gather that large reptiles inhabited much of the planet. Reptiles we find today, are larger in the warmer climates, smaller in cooler climates, non-existent in the cold climates. I interpret this to mean that the whole planet was warmer, before the ice age, that killed most of the giants. Seems reasonable to me, and nobody was burning fossil fuels, yet. Large animals, have large appetites. I believe plants to be the most basic food source. Carnivores eat herbivores, which eat plants... Plants also like a warm climate, and higher levels of CO2, much higher than the IPCC predicts in a hundred years or so, if we don't change our sinful ways, right now. Warmer climate, more CO2, means more food, something the world can certainly use today. The 'plan' is to reduce CO2, by reducing energy use, which is going to have an impact on food production, and transportation to those who need it most. Less CO2, will also put us back to weaker crop yields. CO2 augmentation is well documented, and a common practice in greenhouses. It's even quite popular for the pot growers, since it speeds up production considerably, higher potency, larger yields, for the space they have to grow. But mostly, a few hundred years, on a maybe, is ridiculous. Nobody lives that long, and nobody is going to remember us that long off anyway. Whole lot of other catastrophes can plague this planet, in that time span as well. We still play with nuclear weapons, biological weapons, fool around with DNA. There are plans for messing around with asteroids, move them around, do a little mining. What happens to earth, if huge piece of one of those rocks, impacts with planet Earth? Some fairly large meteors have done some decent damage over the years, and tiny compared to an asteroid. There are volcanoes all over the planet, some are considered active, even though they haven't erupted in a very long time, like Mt St. Helens in 1980. The snow-cap mountain I grew up on was consider active, rumbled occasionally, few places vent gas, hot springs up there a ways. Wouldn't be a shame to make all those changes, reduce all that CO2, and suffer a huge setback, because those volcanoes got real angry? I don't think the threat of a slightly warmer climate in the next few hundred years, is anything to get excited about. Why worry about something, that may never happen, or something worse comes before? It's just not the sort of thing, that people need to be made to suffer, change radically the way they live their lives. Suppose you found a surgeon, who agreed to remove your colon, as you want. But after the surgery, and you heal up, you find out it didn't work out as well as you hoped. You still have the same problems as before, plus you gave yourself a new one. You can't replace the colon, you are stuck with the bag for life, so what next, more surgery?

L8112 ★☆☆☆☆ (115)	Its funny that you troll buddies claim to have no agenda-just 'facts', yet also discard any 'facts' that conflict with your beliefs. Data is no longer a required thing in scientific exploration, apparently, as it is readily discarded if it conflicts with your views. The reason for doing this is because it suits you, and you have nothing to counter it, so you say any data that doesn't support your worldview is a conspiracy. The dictionary definition of cognitive dissonance. If data collected from any institution or government agency is immediately discarded as part of a global conspiracy, then what is the measure by which you study anything? If the criteria is 'it has to suite my belief, otherwise, **** you', then you have revealed your true intent and motives. There is a reason that there is no data coming out of any universities that is compelling towards the idea that climate change is a hoax, and this is all natural. The reason is because it doesn't exist beyond the confines of opinionated news outlets, online forums, or obscure webpages. Cherry picking the 1/100 studies that conclude 'it could be natural variance' is being dishonest and deceptive, while ignoring the other 99 that say we are experiencing abrupt changes to the planets climate, and a stable climate is the only thing keeping this whole show going. Capitalism and humans have removed themselves from nature, and created a thing that is no longer a part of nature, which in fact consumes and uses anything and everything for the purpose of monetary profit and human greed and self seeking. Since you hate those goddamned glaciers , and your brain immediately refuses any information saying unprecedented ice melt is occurring, why not look at another nature system in a state of collapse-the amazon. When 12% of atmospheric oxygen is produced by rainforests, and the amazon produces a large chunk of that, and has lost 800,000 square kilometers since 1970-over 20%, you dismiss this as non-important. Or 60% decline in certain insect populations-not important, fake news (as such 'news' was collected via scientists actually out in the field studying these systems data, this gives you the queue to not 'believe' it). You then ask for 'studies' or articles to back up these claims, when such articles or studies are produced in abundance you say "typical appeal to authority, more fake news". Like a fractal of uncertainty : data---->fake news, yet says with no 'evidence' or data, is also fake news. Because you are part of the chaotic system undergoing collapse, then it comes as no surprise that this applies to your mental state and beliefs as well, which is also undergoing chaotic collapse into complete randomness. The accumulation of illusory wealth is more important than actual wealth, which is a healthy ecosystem and people who are not always at each other's throats trying to kill each other. Wealth to you is an ego trip wherin you hope to be perceived by others in a certain way, 'look at me', selfless service is unfathomable to you, because you are filled with hatred and anger. My anger is justified, yours is not. Just look at the leader of commerce-the president of the US-as the perfect example of its fruits. Someone incapable of anything other than his own self interests-deceptive, cruel, stupid, obstinate, lies incessantly. Yet when 22 women accuse him of rape or sexual assault, they are all the liars, not the man who lies so much he doesn't even realize he is doing it, not the man who said on tape how he just 'grabs women by the pussy'. The point here is, you idolize this man because he resonates with you, you are that- disharmonic degenerates who are no longer part of nature. As such the chaotic variable is being eliminated in a de-evolution event known as the holocene extinction. For example, 'into the night' will jump in with his usual long winded rants where he tap dances like a monkey, and claims to be unbiased, yet has 'parrot killer' as his mantra -a badge of honor, because he is as I said a pile of genetic trash. Similarly, trump and the oil corporations see these numbers, know it is happening, yet instead of doing anything, they try their utmost to spread disinformation and denial because to do anything would mean losing money, and the goal of commerce is to accumulate as much for your self as possible, to seek self gratification and aggrandizement at the expense of everything and anything-including the planet which has nursed you from monkey prototypes to so called 'wise apes'. If the definition for wise is the stupidity to kill the planet which gives you life and enforce its destruction with hatred, cruelty, brutality , then the title is fitting. Edited on 23-06-2019 18:50

Human beings by nature are pretty selfish, so they won't really care about the generations that follow. Opinions and concerns are changing quickly, so don't worry yourself about those who don't care.
