Gravity kills more people now than climate change ever will.

Liberal heads, like LAURENCE TUBIANA's, world-wide exploded after Trump said “No to the Paris Accord!” No more raping of American Taxpayers by foreign nations under their criminal guise of Gorebull Warming!

This is Fake News from a Gorebull Warming Snowflake.....Now for some real news for these Snowflakes.

A special good night to SnowFlakes across America/the world. Sleep well! President Trump will be there, watching over you for the next 7+ years.

But 75 percent of Pittsburghers voted for Hillary Clinton, who was in favor of the agreement

He was speaking of a metaphorical Pittsuburgh, dumbass.

‘we the ppl’ pledge to fight volcanic eruptions!

‘we the ppl’ pledge to fight solar cycles!

‘we the ppl’ pledge to fight tectonic activity!

‘we the ppl’ pledge to fight celestial objects from impacting the earth!

‘we the ppl’ pledge to alter natural climatological cycles both long term and short term, as well as ecological feedback loops!

oh wait....

‘we the ppl’ need to focus on something that has a statistically and comparatively negligible and dissipating effect on certain atmospheric thermal properties because that something (CO2) is a way to directly attack geopolitical interests.

So, Trump represents the smart 1/4 of Pittsburgh.

A MANIFESTO TO LIVING IN FREEDOM

We, The People, love climate change. Spring to Fall is our favorite. When the weather changes we know we are in God’s loving hands. We celebrate climate change, the breath of our dynamic nature system. We breath deeply of our oxygen loving air, knowing the CO2 we exhale will nurture a tree, a flower, a blade of grass.
We, The People, hate those who would control the very air we breath. They are the true enemies of freedom, they are the enemies of the natural world we share with brother bear and sister fish.
We are part of this grand living earth. We will not submit to those those who would enslave us with their fear, their hatred, and their ignorance. We will be free to breath the air, to eat the fruits of our labor, and to multiply our kind without restraint.

“We are working toward a shared vision of a common future, with the goal of safeguarding the planet for all.”

Notice the hug and touch BS bromides these people confuse with rational thought:

1. “shared vision” Go talk to Rocket Man and get him on board, plus the various Hitlers, Stalins, Maos, Castros, Atilla the Huns, etc.

2. “Common future” What is that? Does that mean she wants to join hands with MAGA?

3. “Safeguarding the planet for all” Why does she feel it necessary to add “for all”? Is there a group untouched by the planet? Kind of like the favorite feminist
phrase “all women, everywhere”. Doesn’t the “all women” include the “everywhere”?

We are also pledged to stop Contintental Drift, and are debating a ban on Axial Precession. We have some computer models that say it’s bad.

The idiots seem to have reduced a complex problem to something ridiculous: more carbon destroys the climate.
Sorry, babe, but it’s not so simple as that. First, you mean carbon dioxide, not carbon. Co2 is slurped in by plants. Add more co2 to the air, and plants lick their chops. The ecosystem attempts to establish a balance to return the air to its previous state.
Remove Co2 and plants do not flourish, causing the percentage of Co2 to increase.
Frustrating, isn’t it? No matter what man does, he cannot change the balance of nature.

> This is more of an indictment of the people of Pittsburgh than a vote for the Paris accord. <

It’s actually neither. Most Pittsburghers vote Democrat because grandfather and father voted Democrat. These are FDR and JFK families. Ask the average Pittsburgher what he’s willing to do to fight Global Warming, and he’ll say “nutten.”

He would tax the American people to pay for India, Chnina's continued pollution...looking at a failed presidency and administration run amuck for 8 years still trying to take center stage. Ignor him, Obama!

You are free to put a bag over your head and stop using up oxygen. That does not mean our President or our Government has to make a law saying everyone has to do that! Grow up. You are free to do what you want. You are not free to force the rest of us to do the same!

That's even worse, as it says they can't think for themselves. I know several people who live in Pittsburgh (North Hills, McKeesport, McKeesrocks); one who is liberal, two who are not. I'll never understand the liberal mentality since a fundamental tenet seems to be a belief in a free lunch. Fox News had a story on the "Free Lunch, Free Breakfast" program in some school system. Free...really? "Free" in this instance means zero cost to the consumer but the burden pushed onto the taxpayer.
