“Climate change is no longer theoretical. It is real, it is all around us, and it is going to get much worse.”
~~~~~~~
Throw everything everyone ever knew about the climate out! We now know the real truth. The climate never changed before 1800 AD. Ever!
Ban volcanic eruptions, sunspots and tectonic plate shifting and the endless stream of unqualified idiots on steroids preaching about climate change and feeeel goood about doing so.
And if we were experiencing drier, faster, and more intense, that, too, would be the mantra of the purveyors of disinformation, very few of whom know a damned thing about climatology and atmospheric science.
For modern-day Chicken-Littles, the very essence of scientific CERTAINTY is: “,,,seems to be happening...”
Weather is not climate.
Go ahead Eugene. Stop the sun with your band of global warming hoaxers.
We’ve never had serious hurricanes in that region before, ever!
No worry. Soon someone will receive the order in a dream to build the Ark.
“Last year, Hurricane Maria ravaged the island of Puerto Rico and caused, according to an independent study, nearly 3,000 deaths.”
How about we go back and recompute death statistics for 9/11 the same way the hurricane deaths were computed for Puerto Rico. Maybe when we point out that 50,000 to 100,000 people have died due to direct or aftermath results of 9/11 alone (using this Puerto Rico filter these genius propagandists devised), we can take Koranimals a bit more seriously than we are now.
Another note ... I can’t believe a hurricane “ravaged” an island in the Caribbean!!! I’ve never heard of that! Same thing with that hurricane that smashed into Cudjoe Key last year! Wow! A hurricane hitting the Florida Keys! Where is the historical record of this happening??? It must be CLIMATE CHANGE (f.k.a. global warming; f.f.k.a. global cooling)
Well... he’s right.
The climate does change. Who knew?
Oh, the kind of change man “causes”.
The climate has been changing for thousands of years. During those years man had at best discovered fire and the wheel.
What caused climate change then, is causing climate change now
Silly me, I never knew WP opinion writers also are scientists...
What a dummie...er...journalist (same thing).
Of course climate change is not a theory. It has always changed and always will change.
It’s human caused climate change that’s the debate dumb*ss.
True, it is a sacrament in the church of liberalism.
Yep capt obvious; the climate has continually changed throughout the history of this planet. I think you will find it has done so on many other planets in our solar system as well.
Of course this low level of writing is standard for the WaPo group.
But Trump foolishly pulled the United States - the world’s second-biggest emitter of carbon dioxide, behind only China - out of the deal.
And didn’t we reduce our emissions, without some ridiculously one-sided penalized agreement, more than any other country, and more than the top 5 others combined? Or did I imagine that report when I read it online.
Climate changes, always has, always will. The crux of their argument is that man has somehow played part in this change. Just like an ant has no lasting impact on the earth, neither does man. Sure, ants can build huge mounds, and even if one was to do so in a dry river bed, but big enough to complete block off the river and become sort of an “ant-dam”, nature will find a way for that water to flow. Nature, uh... finds a way.
Can also be expected from higher levels of cosmic rays, associated with the ongoing decrease in magnetic activity of the sun.
