they’d be advocating to hire every available Mexican to build a sea-wall from Port Isabel to the Saint Lawrence Seaway and another one down the West coast.

which would cost much less than their 'solutions'.

According to Agenda 21, that is not an undesirable outcome. Assuming that half is all humans. the elites want a bigger playground without us undesirables.

I don’t think the left really believes 90% of the crap they spew.

I don’t think the left really believes understands 90% of the crap they spew.

They cluelessly believe.

It has been obvious for years that the Leftists do not really believe in Climate Change or Global Warning, whatever they want to call it. All you have to do is observe how they live their lives, high on the hog. A true believer would not be using carbon in the mass doses that an Al Gore does. Private jets, giant multiple houses, fleets of SUV’s., etc. If I saw the Tom Friedman’s and Al Gore’s downsizing their lifestyles, I would start to think, maybe their is something to to their worries. I all I see is these guys getting rich off of their “predictions” and enjoying to the fullest their windfalls.

Strangely, nobody seems interested in this vital comparison. Not so strangely, the solutions that are frequently demanded in the most urgent voice, all converge on a socialist worldview: statism, bigger government, higher taxes, less personal liberty. That bigger picture tells me all that I need to know about “climate science”.

Aha! You disagree without refuting the Science! Ergo you are a Climate Change Denialist!

Don't bother arguing with big government enthusiasts. I've sadly come to the conclusion they are either zealous fanatics who don't bother concerning themselves with anything which might be contrary to their agenda, or are just plain conniving hypocrites who want to use government to pick someone's pocket. The apathetic and feebleminded do not fall into either category and persuading them of anything, even if successful, is pointless because it won't matter at all. All that matters is whoever has the attention of the masses right now to get some Change done.

As we sadly approach the gradual decay of our society into a pure democracy it's plain we are on the cow path to serfdom...

There have been 3 SCOTUS decisions on CO2: 2007, 2011, & 2014. So you need to consider each of these decisions, and how/what they apply to.

Then you need to consider that there are 2 sources of CO2: mobile sources such as tailpipes and stationary sources such as power plants. These 2 sources are being regulated in different ways.

Then you need to recognize that the stationary sources are being regulated based on being either a new source or an existing source.

Once you have it broken out into the various components, then you can analyze it qualitatively and quantitatively

We are on the verge of very stunning news in the area of LENR (Low Energy Nuclear Reactions), a technology that is as important an improvement as the invention of the steam locomotive. Energy will be released in the form of heat and plans are being made to use these devices to power now-mothballed coal fired power plants.

I am expecting that after a little delay to rethink things, a lot of people who currently demand “climate justice” will eventually object to LENR, thus showing they were motivated far more to protest human progress and the subsequent prosperity it provides than they were really concerned about the climate.

If anyone tells you that the solutions to all the world’s problems are more government and higher taxes, walk away.

Saw an excerpt on the news about Climate Day .... first thing that entered my mind was “lemmings”.

This crap is why I no longer care to have a television (I haven't for 6 years).

Even if I don't watch the biased news programs, I would catch the promos for the news broadcast (with the same pull quotes) umpteen times during broadcasts for entertainment programs (which often have purchased media messaging from liberal groups embedded in the scripts).

Feh.

But all the communist, "progressive" and democrat politicians do.

Hasn't anyone else noticed?

Which baffles me.
According to the Federal Rules of Evidence, every statement on which the illegal laws and regulations have been based, the last six years, do NOT meet even the minimal requirements for a legal justification for them, based on the science. As far as I know, the science was not even deemed relevant.

CO2 a pollutant?
WTF?...

Could it be that no one thought to challenge them?

Imhofe?
Anybody?
