Many reactionarys dont't believe in climate change. These people remind me of those who were and are in opposition to enviornmental regulations that have reduced overall pollution over the last 40 years. They put far more stock in their beliefs because no evidence is required. Very foolish people. The evidence for climate change is overwhelming.
Nope. I am just waiting for the PROOF that there is climate changed caused by man.
So far, that hasnt been done. When it is, I will certainly respect that. Until then, stop acting like the science is decided...because even the guys who said it was decided...are now coming out saying "well, maybe it isnt yet."
The government is concerned about one thing whether it is USA, China, Cuba or Venezuela. CONTROL. They want to control and regulate your life. Your healthcare, your medicines, your cars, your food, your environment. Do you people remember what the military says when we go into another country? We need to destroy the communications and control the area. It is all about control. Al Gore wants to control your life and make himself even wealthier doing so.
Bernie you area an idiot. Lisa Jackson you are also an idiot. This plants climate changes. Of course man contributes some to the climate change but so does everything else on the planet. You canot stop climate change and to believe you can is stupid and futile. You morons will cause economic destruction of this nation in your efforts to support this moronic idealogy. The primary drivers in climate change: the sun, continental drift, variations in the tilt of the earths axis are far beyond your control. Wake up j@ck @sses.

?What is the current scientific consensus on the conclusions reached by Drs. Mann, Bradley and Hughes? [Referring to the hockey stick propagated in UN IPCC 2001 by Michael Mann and debunked by McIntyre and McKitrick in 2003.]
Ans: Based on the literature we have reviewed, there is no overarching consensus on MBH98/99. As analyzed in our social network, there is a tightly knit group of individuals who passionately believe in their thesis. However, our perception is that this group has a self-reinforcing feedback mechanism and, moreover, the work has been sufficiently politicized that they can hardly reassess their public positions without losing credibility.?

Originally used to describe Nazis; this book also describes 'Warmies'...
?When hopes and dreams are loose in the streets, it is well for the timid to lock doors , shutter windows and lie low until the wrath has passed. For there is often a monstrous incongruity between the hopes, however noble and tender, and the actions that follows them. It is as if ivied maidens and garlanded youths were to herald the four horsemen of the apocalypse. ?People who see their lives as irremediably spoiled cannot find a worth-while purpose in self-advancement...Their innermost craving is for a new life ? a rebirth ? or failing this, a chance to acquire new elements of pride, confidence, hope, a sense of purpose and worth by an identification with a holy cause. An active mass movement offers them opportunities for both...? ? It is true that in the early adherents of a mass movement there are also adventurers who join in the hope that that the movement will give a spin to their wheel of fortune and whirl them to fame and power.?

Bernard Sanders has a reputation of making news by shooting off his mouth once every year about topics and history he knows nothing about. Bernie was not even born when the Nazi?s started to run amok; he was five or six after WWII ended. So it?s interesting to hear him talk about how things were back then? as if he lived it. Being Jewish does not give him the right to compare Nazism to those that want the science of reviewing 4 billion years of earth history against 150 years of ?data?.
The current ?climate warming? issues are not about whether this is a good cause; it?s about the integrity of the scientific process. Many of the purported scientists are climate change advocates, like Gore and not science advisors. Many of the advocates have a financial conflict of interest. The alarmists are asking for BILIION$ of dollars for more studies or to give our tax money to other countries against - - the backdrop of questionable science.
So yes, the Earth may be changing (or going through natural cycles), but we should not pollute, and it is in our best interests to look elsewhere for energy sources (unless we want to continue to give our money to Venezuela and the Middle East for their pollution / war causing oil exports). Also, we may want to create the Eco Jobs here in the USA; the wind turbines for a major Texas wind farm are being built in China - with our tax dollars!
You are absolutely right on target. Who in their right mind could or would argue that an infinitesimal trace (.04%) gas essential to life on this planet, with an astronomical Global Warming Potential (GWP) index of 1 (one), is not responsible for runaway Global Warming? Keep the faith, baby, and beat these ignorant, Luddite, denier dogs to death.
94% of our climate is out of control of humans. And sun spots were the major cause of the warming in the past 20 years. Sun spot activity is nearly non-existent right now and the earth will now cool again. It is a cycle no matter what $ander$ and Gore $ay. TO Gore it i$ all about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for him.
