It's not global warming, it's not climate change. We are now to call it---------climate crisis.😉😉😉😉😉

Cuda2020

Why don't you guys call yourselves the C party, the party of Conspirorists?

Cuda2020

Yeah a real hoax, that's why every year is hotter than the one before every since temperature since recordation. Not to mention the ever-increasing climate disasters. I guess mother earth is in on the hoax too.

Why? Seems to me that everyone running around with their hair on fire over this want everyone else to change their lifestyles while they carry on as usual.

My issue is not with climate change, it is with the unproven, politics-based myth that mankind is responsible

Let me get this straight.... as long as NASA's main job under Obama was to publicize Muslim contributions to science, everything they said was gospel. Now it's not?

This from the poster who thinks Trump controls NASA because their new findings don't agree with his opinion. Got it.

Is it possible for Democrats to hitch their wagon to anything real!
Is there some pick pockets in the house?

'Global Warming' - 'Climate Change'
For those who don't yet get it... or what the mainstream stream media never, ever communicated to the masses.
What this scientist mentioned and concluded at the end of one of his speeches is that, he says, they have us outnumbered, but we have them outgunned and that is with the TRUTH!
So I conclude that he is right on the money, good for Dr. Plimer. So good for our Pres. getting out of the Paris Accord! Just a major money/power grab! ....Yeah Trump/Pence

Where Does the Carbon Dioxide Really Come From?
Professor Ian Plimer's book in a brief summary.
PLIMER: "Okay, here's the bombshell. The volcanic eruption in Iceland . Since its first spewing of volcanic ash has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.
Of course, you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress - it’s that vital chemical compound that every plant requires to live and grow and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans and all animal life.

I know....it's very disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kids "The Green Revolution" science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationing at home instead of abroad,nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50 cent light bulbs with $10.00 light bulbs.....well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes in just four days.

The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four days - yes, FOUR DAYS - by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased every single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon. And there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planet spewing out this crud at any one time - EVERY DAY.

I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should mention that when the volcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it spewed out more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth.

Yes, folks, Mt Pinatubo was active for over One year - think about it.
Of course, I shouldn't spoil this 'touchy-feely tree-hugging' moment and mention the effect of solar and cosmic activity and the well-recognized 800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which keeps happening despite our completely insignificant efforts to affect climate change.

And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud, but the fact of the matter is that the bush fire season across the western USA and Australia this year alone will negate your efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years. And it happens every year.

Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you, on the basis of the bogus 'human-caused' climate-change scenario.
Hey, isn’t it interesting how they don’t mention 'Global Warming' anymore, but just 'Climate Change' - you know why?
It’s because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past century and these global warming bs artists got caught with their pants down.

And just keep in mind that you might yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme - that whopping new tax - imposed on you that will achieve absolutely nothing except make you poorer.
It won’t stop any volcanoes from erupting, that’s for sure.
But, hey, .....go give the world a hug and have a nice day..

Yep!! It is that "Man Made" thingy.
Some money to be made?
Ask Al Gore.

There IS climate change. The issue with us humans is "How much is due to human activity." That is the great debate. One good belch from a volcano can spew more pollution than all the combined activities of all mankind throughout the ages, but there have been numerous volcanos throughout human history and we're still here. We're nearing the end of the last of at least 5 ice ages. The glaciers and polar ice capos have waxed and waned beyond the memory of mankind, before the coming of mankind.
I just copied this bit from Wikipedia, which is informative about ice ages.
What is an ice age?

An ice age is a long interval of time (millions to tens of millions of years) when global temperatures are relatively cold and large areas of the Earth are covered by continental ice sheets and alpine glaciers. Within an ice age are multiple shorter-term periods of warmer temperatures when glaciers retreat (called interglacials or interglacial cycles) and colder temperatures when glaciers advance (called glacials or glacial cycles).
At least five major ice ages have occurred throughout Earth’s history: the earliest was over 2 billion years ago, and the most recent one began approximately 3 million years ago and continues today (yes, we live in an ice age!).
Currently, we are in a warm interglacial that began about 11,000 years ago. The last period of glaciation, which is often informally called the “Ice Age,” peaked about 20,000 years ago. At that time, the world was on average probably about 10°F (5°C) colder than today, and locally as much as 40°F (22°C) colder.
What causes an ice age and glacial-interglacial cycles?
Many factors contribute to climate variations, including changes in ocean and atmosphere circulation patterns, varying concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide, and even volcanic eruptions. The following discusses key factors in (1) initiating ice ages and (2) the timing of glacial-interglacial cycles.
One significant trigger in initiating ice ages is the changing positions of Earth’s ever-moving continents, which affect ocean and atmospheric circulation patterns. When plate-tectonic movement causes continents to be arranged such that warm water flow from the equator to the poles is blocked or reduced, ice sheets may arise and set another ice age in motion.
Today’s ice age most likely began when the land bridge between North and South America (Isthmus of Panama) formed and ended the exchange of tropical water between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, significantly altering ocean currents.

None of these progressives and socialists care about this country or they would complain about the rest of the world that are mostly far behind us in the control of emission's. They are seeking only power to control the rest of us for their power and gain. There have been many other climatologists that disagree with this doom and gloom for the planet. Don't these people realize that the carbon emitted into the atmosphere is of great help to keep this planet green and vibrant. Without the plants we would all starve.

The trick there dummy is ever recorded. You know anything about statistics? The accurate recorded temps of earth compared to the age of said earth is such a minuscule amt. it would be statistically irrelevant.

Stupid statements or intentional lies. Which are these?

Ah, yes, Al Gore, "single-handedly invented the Internet," then showed the world how to make a multi-million dollar cottage industry out of a natural phenomenon.

A genius who will truly go down (well, he was Clinton's VP) in the anals (spelling intended) of... something-or-other, I'm sure.
