From a 70's era magazine. Well, fuck a duck...

Have we not been through this before a couple of times already?

Yes, we have.

So how much $$$$cash$$$$ will turn the temp down 5 degrees according to the models?

Will that be enough or are you going to come back later for more?

Estimates to sort it out are only around 1 or 2% of GDP so even if you weren't sure it will happen worth it for the insurance factor. Do you think your home will actually burn down? Do you have trailer insurance anyway?

That's the wrong way around though, you really need to think about how much it will cost not to, especially in somewhere like Florida.

Again with the same crap. Insurance against what? Where is the sky falling now?


It's all about green. Long green.

Green Climate Fund may ask donors for a refill in 2019: director

LISBON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - The Green Climate Fund, set up to help developing countries tackle climate change, could seek to refill its coffers in 2019, a year which is likely to see “a huge amount of attention on climate finance”, said the fund’s executive director.

Howard Bamsey, a former Australian diplomat, said the fund could reach the trigger point for its replenishment process later this year if the share of available funds it has allocated for projects reaches 60 percent.

The fund began making investment decisions in 2015, with pledges from donor governments of $10.3 billion.

But it is expected to receive only about $8 billion of that after U.S. President Donald Trump - a climate change skeptic who plans to pull out of the Paris climate accord - indicated he would not make good on the remaining $2 billion of the $3 billion promised by his predecessor.

The US paid $20 billion in subsidies to fossil fuels last year.

Well this idiot claims he has some ties to oil and gas, so he doesn't give a shit if his trailer sinks into a swamp as long as he gets dividends. This despite the fact that even most of big oil companies are acknowledging that man-made global climate change is real and is effecting their operations...

That's a house boat on calm waters. In a storm it's called a trailer at the bottom of the lake.

Well... nobody ever accused climate science deniers of being the sharpest tools in the shed. Redneck houseboats might hold up well during a routine flood, but they ain't going to be a lot of use in a Cat 5 hurricane.

Haha!! Not too many things do well against a Cat 5 hurricane. Especially trailers and small boats. If your redneck hideaway is a reinforced concrete dome then you should be fine but rednecks don't like concrete. They like lumber and roofing tin and they like to screw their own kin.

That thing would be fucked in a Cat 2. Travel trailers go to shit in several hard rains and tend to rot easily...

That's ok. No need for insurance. You just go to an undamaged area and share some good moonshine with the good people there and when they are drunk, you steal someone's trailer, their chickens and their daughter.

Hey...don't you even be JOKIN' about messing with another man's chickens.

Are you saying you want me to go and kick Al Gore's ass?

Why bother?

Gore is old news and small change.

You guys are hilarious. I really am amazed at the sheep mentality. You just can’t get through with their own words. Three letter word: Jobs. Or You didn’t build that. Or Trump is an animal.

For any of those people that are visiting the site for the first time and are interested in the conversation one way or the other, they may be confused.

In the 70s, all the same idiots were worried about global cooling. They all said the science is clear, we’re in a major cooling period and it’s going to cause major problems worldwide. The solution: government control of the energy sector and the economy.

But the data didn’t support that theory.

Then the same idiots shifted to global warming. They all said the science is clear, were in a major warming period and it’s going to cause problems worldwide. The solution: government control of the energy sector and the economy.

But the data doesn’t support that theory either. So the term has shifted to climate change. The solution: government control of the energy sector and the economy. It literally was a brilliant move because the science of climate change can never be disproved. If it gets wet or dry: climate change. If it gets hot or cold: climate change. It’s always right.

20 years of satellite data and weather balloon data doesn’t support that theory either.

The solution: government control of the energy sector and the economy.

And now: The gate keepers from the flat earth society responses…
