IPCC Report: Trouble Ahead

You just have to look at local weather patterns everywhere to know that the report is true. More and stronger hurricanes. Recording breaking temperatures. Flooding. Severe drought in other areas.

I don't really care what the ignorant or denialists think. The government knows the truth, as do the vast majority of scientists. However, if governments keep pushing the reckless capitalism model without factoring in environmental costs, we are doomed. Money isn't real. Nature is.
 
As a Canadian, living in a country where we are a net negative when it comes to CO2 contributions to climate change, I'm one of millions who believe the science and yet strongly oppose the remedies proposed. While the three largest net contributors to man made climate change are allowed to skate by, their economies suffering no ill effects, we are expected to reduce our lifestyle and wealth while pouring money into government coffers to be distributed elsewhere around the world. The majority of us now say **** that. We'll continue to do our individual parts in environmentally friendly ways, but we refuse governments taxing us to death to pay for inefficient alternatives that are doing virtually nothing to address the global causes.

Hurricanes are neither stronger nor more numerous.
No more temperature records than normal have been broken.
There have been no more floods than normal.
There have been no more droughts than normal.
Hype is not data.

Greetings, CJ. :2wave:

Since Trump pulled our Country out of the Agreement, time will tell what it might cost us, but most taxpayers don't favor paying for everybody else around the world with our money, and I'm being polite by using the word "favor!"

That's nice. Your full time job is spreading denialist propaganda and bad science (probably paid for) so I'm not particularly interested in much of what you have to say. You're on the wrong side of history. :shrug:
 
Easily predictable future. When millennials tell stories of the “Boomers” to their own grandchildren, as they sit around one of the few remaining water holes that isn’t radioactive, they will describe them as monsters who selfishly consumed everything in their path; creatures of gluttony, who triggered the Great Resource War which destroyed their beautiful planet. Write it down.

Please remove your tinfoil hat. I'm a retiree not paid by anyone, and I support my views with peer-reviewed science and data. Continued falling temperatures will put a stake through the heart of the AGW error in any case.

After years of falling temperatures have put a stake through the heart of the AGW error, the fun will be watching today's warmists trying to claim they had doubts all along.

I agree. The reality of you doing this for no compensation is a depressing glimpse into the wingut psyche.

I'd love to know where the idea of "continued falling temperatures" is coming from. Every source I have found which is even remotely legit shows reams of data saying the exact opposite. Of course, if someone wants to point to slightly lower temperatures this year than last while ignoring that this year's temperatures are much higher than the last "cooling" year, well...then I guess you get Jack.

When you don't have the science , go with the anecdotes.
The IPCC once again reports that there is little basis for claiming that drought, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes have increased, much less increased due to GHGs. In short, this is still right: https://www.amazon.com/Rightful-Place-Science-Disasters-Climate/dp/0999587749/ …

Yeah. Any idiot knows that the more energy you put into a system, that extreme weather and precipitation will remain the same.

Duh!

Stoopid libruls!

Well then why hasn't it happened?

And after last week, I don't think you'll get much argument on that last sentence.

Why, you had the votes from day one. It was stupid Republicans who shot themselves in the foot by alienating more women from the party of Orange con men. Hell, we just acquired the votes of Taylor Swift. We chip away at the clown show one white former Republican-voting woman at a time.

LAFF. Life inside the bubble
The Democrats energized a whole new slew of people called the never Trumpers. ( like me) From a conservative who has been disgusted by the Trumpified GOP: “I didn’t think I could drag myself to the polls. But after the Left’s performance in the Kavanaugh affair, I would crawl across broken glass.” I believe this sentiment is common.

Us normals know sleaze when we see it.

Just avery bad awful week for Democrats.

Nevertrumpers don't always vote for Dems, they just don't vote for him.
Not likely I would vote Dem with current crop of far left loons running the party., but it could happen. I voted for Cory Booker. Whew boy, huge mistake. Would have voted for Steve Sweeney for gov.

I could possibly have voted for a dope like Biden if he would have run against Trump. Lesser of two evils and all that.

I blame widespread lead exposure in red states.

Are you talking about planet Earth or planet Mars?
