Obama’s presidency was a crime against humanity.

America’s Co2 emissions under Trump are the lowest they’ve ever been. But keep trying CNN.

Trump can singlehandedly stop climate change? By doing what exactly?

Why, of course by he and vice president Pence resigning immediately, delegating the governing of the United States to the United Nations, reporting to the nearest Federal Penitentiary for imprisonment, and before he leaves, appointing Hillary Rodham Clinton, the smartest woman in the world, as our new president. Isn't it obvious? /sarc

It is amazing how hurricanes are hardly noticed when a liberal is president.

The more illegals deported the less poop and garbage in our landfills, the less gasoline used, the less water used, the less natural gas and electricity used, less, less and less. Trump has done more for the environment than Zero did.

“If anthropogenic climate even exists, PROVE IT! If the situation is as dire as claimed and it’s not political, then it’s a “crime against humanity” not to clearly and scientifically PROVE (not hypothesis and models based on such) that it’s occurring, and how it can be reversed, before you make claims of intent.”

To prove it all they’d have to do is match the current climate to the estimates their models predicted 20 years ago. The fact that they’re not showing those comparisons means they are nowhere near correct.

This is soapbox bloviation is just tough talk by a blowhard.

US CO2 Emissions Plummet Under Trump While The Rest Of The World Emits More

U.S. greenhouse gas emissions fell 2.7 percent from 2016 levels, according to the EPA. Emissions on a per-capita basis hit a 67-year low last year, federal data shows, and supporters are touting EPA’s data as proof Trump’s agenda is working. EPA’s new data comes on news that, globally, greenhouse gas emissions are set to rise to historic highs by the end of the year, despite nearly 200 countries signing the Paris climate accord.

The above results are due to the evil Trump!

Honestly, even that wouldn’t prove anything, because there are micro cycles mixed in with longer cycles mixed in with long-term cycles and trends, and these are all NATURAL!

So just because the last twenty years didn’t warm as much as their models would have predicted, that was just bad timing. The next twenty could warm more. It could be due to nothing more than changes in solar output, but there are usually a very complex set of contributing conditions. Many cycles are regular and many interplay with other conditions, all of which cannot be modeled if even one is missed or incorrect, and even cycles have trends.

So if they get lucky and we have a warmer decade, what does that prove? Only that we had a warmer decade, not that man had anything to do with it.

"Oh noes! Crimes against humanity!"

So let's impeach him, charge him and convict him of those crimes before he slips through our fingers.

And then see if all the tornadoes, hurricanes, typhoons, earthquakes and other non-man-made disasters come to a screeching halt.

Because according to the liberal Left, Trump is personally responsible for all of Mother Nature's death and destruction.

Who woulda' thunk?

I thought the sea level dropped the moment Soetoro was elected. Did Barry lack the omnipotence to fulfill this campaign promise?

I agree.

The point I’m making is their models were predicting DOOOOOM in this particular 10-20 year period and clearly, it hasn’t happened, for whatever the reason. Showing that comparison destroys their argument.

The truth is, that even IF you believe in Anthropogenic Global Warming, there is Very, very little we can do about it. Seriously. Its too late, way too late, that ship, if it were real, sailed decades ago. All we can do is deal with the changes that are upon us.
