Crackdown ordered on climate-change sceptics

[jacksmar]

“Earth Day” 1970 Kenneth Watt, ecologist: “The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”

Geologists know the history of the earth and what the climate changes were over long periods of time. It puts things in perspective instead of the alarmist the world is going to end unless we have a global carbon tax and GE builds more nuclear power plants. Climate change existed way before the industrial revolution.

Bullshit. I worked with geologists that couldn't find the composition of their asshole..

Well there's all the proof we need! Thanks, cumsmear! See, 97% of climate scientists are wrong because cumsmear pulled a quote of some idiot "ecologist" from when he was a teenager...

That is exactly right.

Climate change is real...it has been for over a billion years.

The fear mongering going on is all about more taxes and selling books.

The focus should be on pollution...and the damage being done to the planet.

That is the concern...and should stay the concern...pollution is impossible to deny.

You can Wiki working with people now? We live in strange times.

Naturally occurring climate change happens for the same basic reason man made climate change does. Carbon based pollution entering the atmosphere. Whether it's a volcanic eruption, or a huge wildfire, or the occasional meteor hitting the earth - which reportedly is what took the dinosaurs out.

There's little we can do to prevent the volcanic eruptions. We can follow Smokey The Bear's advice and do a lot to prevent forest fires (though not eliminate them completely, and ironically, climate change itself makes more of them happen every year) and only in recent decades have we had the capability to blast the shit out of an asteroid if it looks like it's heading for Earth.

But these things are rare occurrences. The man made pollution is not, and it's far easier to control. It's just a matter of the will to do it drowning out the propaganda from those who are making too much money poisoning the planet.

Yeah, try Googling "working with internet bullshitter potheads who beat a dead horse and believe the same MH370 conspiracy bullshit they make fun of Elvis for". You'll go right to the Wiki page on Mini-mouse on Acid. It's awesome...

That's just the last ditch argument of climate change denial that ignores that the climate's radical changes have coincided with relatively recent human activities of the past 10,000 years. namely, agriculture to the industrial revolution...

[Seshmeister]

That is exactly right.

No it's been real for the whole history of the planet - the difference is now it's happening over decades instead of tens of thousands of years.

The planet will be fine, it's the talking monkeys clinging onto it that are in trouble...

[ELVIS]

What's happening over decades ??

[vandeleur]

Please don't take this the wrong way ..., regardless of global warming , global cooling . Global flatness , global newness 6000 years old etc .
Does it matter it's only poor people this will effect .

Whatever climate change ..... Effects it isn't real people .

It's mostly someone else .

Wrong, as usual, Nick.

I'll let you play with your imaginary "friends."

Hahahaha...

What a dork...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

So when your entire living area is underwater in, say, 50 years, what's that gonna be, an Act of God?

[Nickdfresh]

Okay. I'm going to play with our friend Elvis, now.
