Personally IDC if it was 600,000 or 60,000,000 - wrong is wrong and they’re tilting at the wrong windmill. Science by consensus is so tawdry.
Don’t these kooks know that the “fix” is to quadruple the cost of their energy, make any fossil-fueled transportation completely unaffordable, and force them to live their entire lives within 50 miles of their birthplace? No more vacations to Aspen, Aruba, The Hamptons, or Martha’s Vineyard. Freezing in the winter and boiling in the summer? Millions upon millions of birds chopped up in windmills and fried in solar power plants.
What, exactly, do these people propose to do about their perceived problem other than meet and talk with fellow-travellers? How many of them have engineering degrees and are actually thinking about solutions and the cost of those solutions to civilization?
First of all, if they are saying 310,000 it means not more than 100,000.
Secondly, so what?
Even if they got a million nitwits to say “the climate is changing”, what would that mean?
That’s what I’m saying.
Over three hundred thousand activists ..
Why not just say 3 million?
We know how these clowns make up numbers — especially the global warming cult.
We should organize an event where all global activists hold hands and form an unbroken ring around the world.
Yeah!
The climate is changing.
Tomorrow begins fall.
The stupid of ideology, it burns.
For them things like ISIS etc... means nothing if it does not interfere with their ideology.
The world is so stupid.
Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the much older lady that she should bring her own grocery bags, because plastic bags are not good for the environment.
The woman apologized to the young girl and explained, “We didn’t have this ‘green thing’ back in my earlier days.”
The young clerk responded, “That’s our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations.”
The older lady said that she was right — our generation didn’t have the “green thing” in its day. The older lady went on to explain:
Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled. But we didn’t have the “green thing” back in our day.
Grocery stores bagged our groceries in brown paper bags that we reused for numerous things. Most memorable besides household garbage bags was the use of brown paper bags as book covers for our school books. This was to ensure that public property (the books provided for our use by the school) was not defaced by our scribblings. Then we were able to personalize our books on the brown paper bags. But, too bad we didn’t do the “green thing” back then.
We walked up stairs because we didn’t have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn’t climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks.
But she was right. We didn’t have the “green thing” in our day.
Back then we washed the baby’s diapers because we didn’t have the throw away kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy-gobbling machine burning up 220volts. Wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing.
But that young lady is right; we didn’t have the “greenthing” back in our day.
Back then we had one TV, or radio, in the house — not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief(remember them?), not a screen the size of the state of Montana. In the kitchen we blended and stirred by hand because we didn’t have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn’t fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn’t need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.
But she’s right; we didn’t have the “green thing” back then.
We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blade in arazor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.
But we didn’t have the “green thing” back then.
Back then, people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service in the family’s $45,000 SUV or van, which cost what a whole house did before the”green thing.” We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn’t need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 23,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest burger joint.
But isn’t it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn’t have the “green thing” back then?
How do they get so many idiots in one place?
300,000 idiots begging to be enslaved, led by a few seeking bigger & better government grants to research the global warming hoax with a new name.
It’s New York City. Second to California as a prime haven for the liberal loons.
Any pics of the refuse left behind?
IF Only Godzilla was in town today.
And no matter what the weather is, they will blame it on globull warming.
Typical Hollywood hypocrite.
Yup, you just took twenty one more words to say the same thing.
The other 6 billion or so were washing their hair.
...”Over three hundred thousand activists walked through Manhattan on Sunday, warning that climate change is destroying the Earth”.....
Dial a student...the kids are back in college, easy pickings, easy pay.
