Change is for chumps. Eternal taxation for Democrat coffers brings in lots of green.
Saw an excerpt on the news about Climate Day .... first thing that entered my mind was “lemmings”.
It would be an excellent test and wake up call for these crazies to turn off all the coal, gas and nuclear plants for 72 hours and let them power their lives with solar and wind ....
Freon, the most inert substance in existence after the noble gases, is still classified as a hazardous substance.

Bigfoot deniers should be locked up!
Its really the same message the left has on climate change.
Of course not. All they want is more regulations, more taxes, and more money they can divert into their pockets. Larger corporations want to make it impossible for smaller corporations to grow and compete with them.
Modern day “liberals” don’t believe in climate change or any of that BS. What they believe in is power and control. Fascism is an old idea, just wearing new clothes spun by the MSM.
Close. Their ultimate goal is central economic planning (i.e. communism) and it always has been. Note how for over a hundred years the socialists smugly assured us that their policies would end poverty. Yet after the Berlin wall came down and it could no longer be seriously disputed that socialist policies actually cause poverty, everyone on the left suddenly became an environmentalist and in doing so have made poverty their goal.
Of course they don’t believe it.
If it were as bad as they say then it is too late for remedial action and they’d be better off figuring out a way to manage the problem.
If they believed climate change was going to cause sea level to rise 5 feet in the next 20 years as they claim 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. Since they are not doing that they don’t believe the threat is that serious.
Climate change is very real. For example, the average climate of the northern hemisphere is so cold as to cause the ground to be buried under a thousand feet of ice. The cycle of glacier on/glacier off takes place every several hundred thousand years and can be clearly seen in many ways. Even as the science is settled that glaciation has taken place, the causes are still undergoing vigorous debate.
With respect to the idea that humans are causing harmful changes to the climate at this very moment, I am waiting for some peer-reviewed papers that propose what the optimum climate is for our biosphere. The first question that would naturally flow would be where is our current climate and trend in relation to this finding.
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”.
I don’t think the left really believes 90% of the crap they spew.
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.
“The issue is never the issue. The issue is the revolution.”
—David Horowitz, quoting unnamed SDS leader.
According to the commies at the Weather Channel; it is now ‘Climate Week’...no shortage of uneducated useful idiots in this country nowadays...
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?
