Whenever I see stuff like this it reminds me of the Earth First tree hugger video.

 

 

What 'this stuff" are you talking about? I am talking about settled science.

First of all I never said climate change is not happening. The climate is in a constant state of change. It has been before humans existed and will be long after we are gone. Those who believe the gas we exhale is the driving force behind it and not the big ball of fire in the sky called the sun really are cult members. I have no need to watch Bill Nye spew his nonsense. This is the same person who called for global warming skeptics to be arrested. Classic cult mentality. Try to punish those who don't go along with your mental illness.

The current rate of change in the climate and not the fact that the climate undergoes constant change is the topic. You present no evidence that explains this rate of change and you mock those who believe what real science and real scientists tell us. So do I believe you , Alex Jones and oil.company lobbyists or established facts that you choose not to.look.at?

You introduced the falicous argument of 97 % of priests believing in God, I addressed it.

 

"Science is not a consensus"...what does that mean?

97 % of priests reached a consensus that there is a god. So it is settled.

 

They are the experts on religion and one would be a fool to say they are wrong.

It's always fun to watch the left try and speak for science when it's clear this is all politics. Science needs a new spokesman.

Al gore was the expert before. Wasn't Florida supposed to be under water by now? So he failed on his prediction.....although he was very successful in raking in millions on his carbon credits scam.

 

Now we have a dude pretending he is a scientist. I predict the same results. His predictions will fall flat....but his bank account will fill up.

Cali was supposed to be under water as well. I was not even a teenager when I read that book.

 

Anyways, I bet the left think this recent march was all about science and not politics. It's funny watching them ride the coattails of others work while doing approximately nothing in respect to being useful to humanity.

You  are citing obscure books, politically motivated spoke persons and liberals as the culprits in this stream of information.  Where is the liberal bias in the reams of data, overwhelming evidence presented by scientists and the fact that the last three years of global temperatures have been the warmest on record and progressively warmer than the last? 

 

It seems like you want to blame liberals for your inability to come up with real scientific data that says this is occurring.

You don't need predictions...just look at what is occurring today

When models can accurately predict the climate, I will be glad to jump on the bandwagon. At present time we clearly don't understand enough about climate to make such accurate assessments. Not that it'll stop the left from trying. The nature of politics is only need one straw to grasp.

So you got nothing.....?  No data? A theory?

Do you? What's your theory? I assume you've got a thesis or dissertation to look over. Link it, meng.

Dont need a theory...this is now fact. My facts are:  

Industrial combustion of carbon fuel is being pumped into the air

The CO2 altering the global temperatures and ocean chemistry as rates consistent with the model

Theory  If we don't alter our behavior the people on this planet will face dire consequences and suffering.  I would rather not test that theory.

"I have nothing" would have been far less words than this. But I thank you for the effort.

 

- Not an expert

- Rides the coattails of others

- Uses argument from authority while not being an expert and riding the coattails of others

 

"look at what is occurring today" was pretty self explanatory - could have stopped there.
