ABSECULAR

willful and prideful ignorance might be the downfall of the country and possibly the planet

by the way I am a working environmental scientist, that works for an oil company... But that doesn't change the fact of the matter

in the last decade there have been 11000. Viewed papers published showing that climate change is affected by humans, and only a handful that disagree... So there is literally no scientific debate occurring...

how is anyone making money off of global climate change? The money is all in keeping people like you thinking it's a hoax, so the oil companies keep getting their government subsidies... Your head is in the sand deep bro

it's so weird, in almost any other field people trust the experts. if you have cancer you listen to the best oncologist, if you're having heart trouble you want to see the best cardiologist, if you're building a high rise you want to consult the best structural engineers. however, for some reason when it comes to climate no one wants to listen to the thousands of climatologist that all agree lol it's baffling

well I guess I'm in good company, considering every reputable publication on climate, and every reputable climatologists on planet earth agrees with me. its not even a debate except for those who watch Fox News

we can take core samples and measure the carbon thousands of years back.will climate change could cause some areas to cool down, and others to heat up. the climate is the natural balance, if it goes out of balance it will affect many things in many different ways, it already is. I'm not saying there's anything we can do about it, but to deny that its real is pretty silly

You do know that climate and weather aren't the same thing right. You also realize the rise in carbon in the atmosphere over the last century since the industrial revolution has been the sharpest rise in measurable history right? sure, there used to be more carbon in the atmosphere than there is now, but at that time the atmosphere was not breathable to humans lol. it's hard to take people serious when they can look at demonstrable observable science, and tens of thousands published and peer-reviewed papers by climatologist all over the planet. but you're probably right Fox News probably knows best

This is not a question a civilized educated individual would ask

I don't think the flag in itself is offensive to anyone, but the things that we have done under the guise of patriotism are highly offensive to some. As far as our benefits go, compared to other civilised Western democracies, our benefits are quite menial.

Certainly the climate can vary naturally, but carbon also certainly can trap heat near the surface of the planet. You do understand how a greenhouse works correct? There is no doubt or debate scientifically, dumping billions of tons of carbon into the atmosphere absolutely dirupts climate. To claim otherwise, is to live in an alternate reality.
