I ain’t worried about the climate anyway. There is nothing we can do about it. It is what it is and it is going to do what it wants to do. Always has, always will. Thus, why worry about something you can do nothng about. One less headache.
Well...now what?
The amount of melt-off every single year at both poles due merely to seasonal change is astounding. There is no way that we would have any sort of flooding even if both entire poles melted away.
And we Freepers are like the Encyclopediasts at the far end of the galaxy, keeping alive the possibility of civilization regenerating after only 1000 years. I sometimes feel like we are the only ones that actually know how to make things work.
One man’s psychohistory is another man’s propaganda.
The more you know ABOUT GOD, the less worried you are about climate...
There fixed it!!
The BP oil spill is the grand example of man's impotence in dealing with grand scale events. It is just beyond man's ability.
First man could do nothing to stem the oil flow. A man converted a giant ship that could clean up all the oil in a few days, it didn't work. Even Kevin Cosner’s, of Waterworld fame, invention proved inadequate to deal with the problem. Oil kept flowing, and man kept failing.
Then God, who had created oil eating bacteria, came to the rescue. The biggest oil spill in U.S. history became a non issue because of oil eating bacteria that existed since the beginning of time.
Dealing with GLOBAL climate change, is exponentially more difficult than dealing with some puny oil sill, that man was totally incapable of doing.
Why would anyone with a brain think we could affect climate change? If you can't change a thing, then why worry about it at all?
My B.S. in Chemistry and Ph.D. in Biochemistry, but maybe more importantly my 71 years of living through hot and cold decades of “change”, makes me quite sure that we are not in any unusual or imminent danger from global warming/climate change.
Well...We all knew anything Al Gore said had zero to do with science...
June 4 and it’s sprinkling here, if we’re lucky we get a good drenching.. knock all the dust and carbon down. ;-)
I’m hardly surprised at all by the results of this polling. Just try sometime to engage a leftist type in a scientific discussion of Global Warming and you will get nowhere. The lefties are not interested in the science, could care less about the science but they “know” they are on the right side of the issue. They just “know”.
The Galileo Movement is a group of Aussi scientist leading opposition to the carbon taxes enacted by the Labour government.
So the folks who deal in real projects with physically demonstrable results don't believe the charlatans who are blowing smoke with theories having little connection to reality. I can buy that!
Claim That Sea Level Is Rising Is a Total Fraud
Sea levels began to rise 18k years ago at the end of the last glacial period. They have risen about 135 meters since then which is an average of 7.5 millimeters per year. That is an average of 750 mm per century (29.5 inches) which is far more than the average over the last century.
Sorry Global Warming Alarmists, the Earth Is Cooling
Global Warming on Free Republic
The intention of the study was not, in fact, to measure the relationship between mathematical and logical ability and a conviction that AGW is truth, it was to produce a document that is designed to suppress dissent on the topic by implying that dissenters are less intelligent than true believers. It failed because the only science in it wouldn't cooperate.
It also failed because those who are relatively numerate recognize this affair for the con game it is and tend to be less swayed by "consensus" in the non-consensual mechanism that is science. One and one is not three no matter how earnestly the rhetoricians insist that it would be beneficial to society to pretend that it is, and the skeptic may well be ridiculed for insisting otherwise but he will not be wrong.
