““To solve climate change challenges, we first need to acknowledge the uncertainties that exist,” Smith said in his opening remarks. “Then we can have confidence that innovations and technology will enable..”

That’s as far as I got. If I understand this sentence correctly, scientists have no freaking idea how to solve a non-existent problem, but they are telling us we have to acknowledge it as a problem first.

Note to every climate alarmist out there. Until you can answer these three simple questions, I will never believe you.

1. How much money will it cost to fix global warming?
2. What is the plan and risk of fixing global warming?
3. What is the mitigation plan if you are not correct and you wind up putting the planet into a prolonged period of global cooling?

I am not a scientist and I can fix global warming for under 50 billion dollars. In addition to fixing it, I will add billions of dollars to economies around the world, relieve the world of poverty and get rid of many diseases.

The situation is clearly exacerbated the continued overpopulation of islands...

“No stupider than the global warming cultists ...”

That’s still pretty stupid.

He's right. But how right is he?

All of the soil, rocks and trash that wind up in the ocean have to displace some water.

But how much? A trillionth of an inch a year?

Or less?

“Had they just shut their F***ing mouths, we would have that seat now. “

True.

But they were concerned about getting Moore sh!t on them.

So, all they had to do was STFU. He did not require GOP endorsement. He just needed their silence.

Rock? lol What about how much soil is washed into the ocean down all the rivers every year? lol OK. I have the real answer! To many boats displacing the water. Remove all the boats and sea’s will fall! See how easy that was!

That does it.

I save many Freeper threads permanently for future reference.

I just created a new folder...

That is one interpretation, and at one time I might have believed that was all it is, but i've noticed that the establishment types always seem to go after anyone that is interested in reforming Washington DC. Anyone talking about slowing down or stopping the excessive spending, becomes an enemy.

So, all they had to do was STFU. He did not require GOP endorsement. He just needed their silence.

And that is true. I think Shelby, Flake, and the Party establishment (the way they announced they cut off funds because he was tainted or something. *that* convinced a lot of people the accusations were true.) cost us that race because they made the difference whether people would believe the accusations or not.

That’s it! No more Andy Griffith Show for me! That danged little Opie throws a rock into that pond at the beginning of every show...I’ll bet there’s now a pile of dry rocks where the pond used to be!

Danged kid!

“We don’t have a version of Waters.”

Anyone that says the oceans are getting a noticeable rise from rocks falling into them, qualifies.

“It could wipe out a coast line somewhere...”

California is a good place to start. And hopefully it will reach Sacramento.

Yes she is. But to stay within the confines of the thread, I can only relate to her stupidity and the things that fall out of her mouth which can really be such. And since she has dedicated herself to being so stupid, if someone can say something that places themselves down to her level of brain electricity short circuit, then I think an award should be presented, maybe calling it “The Maxine.” And saying that a few rocks falling in the ocean can raise it’s level world wide, it has got to be within a nominating category.
