Is it a toss up. Either they don't know or you don't know.
Tough choice, but the chilluns have a better track record.

Younger folks are not as apt to believe the bullcrap that comes from the right as their folks who lived through cold wars and the fear of communism. Politics for a bunch of younger people is about social rights and wrongs, not about making as much money as is possible while tromping on the necks and backs of others.

Yeah ... sounds like the hippie era ...

I read this and it reminded me of the Children's Crusade.

While what actually happened in the 13th century is lost to history, there are enough
Contemporary sources to say that something actually happened, and none of it ended well.

No **** climate always changes, but it's about HOW, HOW MUCH, and WHY. Anyone that thinks that mankind fundamentally can't have an effect on the environment is a uneducated moron. There is literally mountains of evidence showing that mankind is effecting the climate, but you reject it because you have a political agenda.

Who are we to say too much is too much? no one that is who. The earth went from a friggen tropic atmosphere to a ice age where glaciers nearly covered everything.
They have found lush green forests in the artic that never was supposed to be there. that tells me that a huge major swings in climate conditions are there with little or nothing to do with humans. It also means that the earth can cycle back through those same scenario's again.
I have never said we don't have an impact but this delusion that you people have that think we control what climate does or will do are the true morons.

We would still be living in an ice age if it wasn't for climate change. Yes you reject science for a political agenda.
guess what we are no where near a maximum heat cycle. guess what we are no where near max co2 levels that the earth has
had before.

our understanding i mean actual sciencetific understanding of how our climate works is infantile. we have no clue.
yet we have morons that want to scrub all green house gasses out of the atmosphere which would kill us.
we would freeze to death.

Then I join you in also having no interest in what you said. You're rejecting the fact that boomers are the primary drivers of climate change ignorance and actively have chosen to do nothing.

As all reports have stated pretty much all plans to "combat climate change" would cost trillions of dollars, and their impact on the overall climate is nothing.

It's only about 15 minutes...do yourself a favour and watch it.

that would mean educating ones self. these people are not interested in that.

I'm not worried about this at all. I have a lot of confidence in generation Z. They're the most conservative generation since WW2, generally speaking.
