I couldn’t help but note that the weather experts could not predict twelve hours in advance what path the latest storm would take.

However, that does not stop them from predicting the worldwide climate 50 years from now, down to a one degree certitude.

I'll take lectures on my moral responsibilities from the Bantus of the Congo River Delta before I'll take lectures from Swedes.

And that goes triple for 16 year old Swedes.

There’s a lot of adults that don’t realize how politically corrupt much of this “science” is. She’s completely unaware and also doesn’t realize she’s being exploited.

It’s actually incredibly condescending that the left in general thinks this whole “even the ‘children’ know better about climate change” attitude carries any weight. It just goes to show how they look down on everyone else that doesn’t share their world view.

Once you ask what the solution is all your hear is an endless list of socialist policies.

I'd say she has a moral responsibility to take her meds and get therapy,

on AS symptom-
The most distinguishing symptom of AS is a child’s obsessive interest in a single object or topic to the exclusion of any other. Children with AS want to know everything about their topic of interest and their conversations with others will be about little else. Their expertise, high level of vocabulary, and formal speech patterns make them seem like little professors.

That is child abuse IMHO.

I said the same thing about Algore and his movie

And I still hold that opinion

Someone has convinced her that she’s going to be dead in a decade if the USA does not completely stop using fossil fuels.
She wasn't even thought of when Ted Danson predicted that fossil fuel use will cause both coasts to be underwater in 10 years, he said that in 1988.Too bad he can't get his old gig back as Sam the bartender in Cheers, at least that was somewhat entertaining. Interesting how progressives recycle their trash.

My eldest daughter has Asperger’s, and I have a touch of it myself. It makes life hard no question.

They probably make her feel accepted. Stil we are all responsible for the choices we make. I remember what Jesus said about the man who led children astray

There’s no “moral responsibility “ to chase ghosts.

She’s a child. Children don’t know the difference between leftist science, and correct science.

Neither do climate scientists.

Wrong. Apparently you’ve never seen a frac. They do it with 5 to 10 tons CO2. Also...during the sulfur cleanup there are percent levels of CO2 released. Also it takes fuel for the compressors to move the gas which emits more.
