TRUTH is not worth the fight anymore???

Certainly there is climate change. World climate has been in constant change since creation. But man has not been involved. Part of the creation was the natural flow or air and ocean currents that along with activity of the sun’s surface dictate climate.

This has been known for generations and why it is being denied now is the question and requires exposure.

“Earth will only end when God declares it’s time to be over.”

That’s not an argument against climate change. Makes no sense as a response.

I’d like to see their investment portfolios. My bet is that most of them are heavily invested in companies that make solar panels, windmills, and other such investments. They most likely don’t really believe the Global Warming crap but rake in money off of it.

“It’s just not worth the fight anymore,” Shimkus said in an interview with Bloomberg when asked about his changing stance on climate change. “Let’s just see what we can do to address it and not hurt the economy.”

Another Republican falls victim to the masked Castrator.

I accept man-made climate change. I always have.

I just don't care about it.

I don't lose sleep over it. I'm not in the least bit worried about rising sea levels. I have not seen any evidence that climate change will be catastrophic.

Humans will adapt. We always have. And adaptation won't require laws that crush our economy, force us to live in the Stone Age, or transfer billions of dollars in wealth to African despots.

We'll make it through climate change.

They are getting tired of lying about everything. Lying about wanting fiscal constraint, stopping borrowing, lowering taxes, strengthened borders. Lying about honoring and defending free speech and the second amendment. And lying about not being big government socialists in conservative drag.

I really do loathe most republican politicians especially the Bush acolytes as much as the dems. Maybe more because the republican liars are like a family member that steals from you. You get it when a mugger takes your wallet, you hate it but you expect it too. On the other hand when your brother does it it hurts.

Someone’s busy behind the scenes in prep for 2020. I doubt it’s about money. More likely compromised and they’re being allowed to keep their secrets.

Climate change, and global warming took a big hit with the recent polar vortex. Worse, in Minnesota, the solutions to same embraced by the GND took a worse hit.

Record low temps in late January caused the Gov to encourage people to set thermostats to 60, and refrain from using hot water because of a brown out. As it happens, snow covered solar panels rendering them useless, requiring the dire and no doubt very inconvenient accommodations. It seems the solar power company could not see fit to remove the snow, not that it would have helped in the dark of night. h/t John Hinderaker/Powerline.

Elsewhere we hear of battery powered Tesla's burning up in frigid cold.

One stem-winder from DJT highlighting all these wonderful "benefits of renewable energy" would end this nonsense.

The resistance to the validity of anthropogenic climate change is just not only because it is costly and tiring, but also because there is no real-world basis for the so-called “science” that is liberally scattered, like animal waste on snow. As the snow melts, the pollution problem is vastly exacerbated. Good, calibrated and thoughtful reasoning is displaced by inflated claims and bogus assertions that have no basis in fact.

1. Carbon dioxide is NOT an air pollutant. It is a very necessary part of what the mythologists like to call the “circle of life”, but they neglect to account for its presence being the very REASON we have any oxygen to breathe at all.

2. Despite all the hoopla about carbon dioxide being the “cause” of continuing accumulation of heat energy in the atmosphere, and therefore “contributing” to global warming, the compound simply does not have that capability. Firstly, carbon dioxide is of such low concentration in the present-day atmosphere, that the potential heat absorption would be dispersed by a multitude of other factors, and secondly, the heat absorption factor of CO2 is about equal to that of water vapor, which exists as part of the atmosphere in VASTLY greater quantities, from 20 to 100 times the amount as carbon dioxide. So any heat absorption by CO2 is negligible.

3. The mechanism of heat absorption by water, in all its forms, from solid (as ice) to liquid, to water vapor, is unusual as compared to most other compounds, as there is, under terrestrial conditions, something called the “triple point”, in which at 0 degrees Centigrade, the compound may exist as a solid, a liquid and a gas simultaneously. This is a capacity shared with many other gases, to be sure, like ammonia, and yes, even carbon dioxide, but it takes vastly different conditions for either of those two compounds to achieve a “triple point”, relating to both temperature and ambient pressure. Under low enough temperature, and high enough pressure, ammonia and carbon dioxide can form as both solid and liquid, and also remain in gaseous form. Just not here under normal earth atmospheric conditions, at sea level.

4. Carbon dioxide is HEAVIER than the mixtures of gaseous compounds that make up our atmosphere, and thus, stays very close to the bottom of the atmosphere. Water vapor (and methane, another “suspect” gas), being LIGHTER than the other atmospheric components, tend to rise, and when water vapor does this, as it cools, it forms visible clouds, and in doing so, COOLS the surrounding atmosphere, as the excess heat is radiated off to space while the face of the earth is turned away from the sun.

5. Methane is a different aspect of this heat transfer. Unimpeded, it would simply drift higher and higher, escaping into space, but there is something called the “ozone layer”, created by the ionizing effect of sunlight on the diatomic oxygen molecule, making three O2 molecules into two O3 molecules, ozone. This is a highly active form of oxygen, and when methane comes into contact, the methane is quickly oxidized back into a molecule of carbon dioxide and two molecules of water. The carbon dioxide sinks back down through lower levels of the atmosphere, being heavier, while the water molecules formed join with the rest of the store of water vapor at high altitudes. Because of the radiation of heat, the vapor is transformed into ice crystals, which being denser than the surrounding rarefied atmosphere, falls towards the surface of the earth.

There are undoubtedly many other important processes going on simultaneously in the atmosphere, so the effect that may be attributed to the presence of carbon dioxide has zero-sum effect.

Therefore, there is no valid reason to limit carbon-based fuel, or even to apply a tax to its use. That is just a scheme to apply yet another tax to curb economic activity here on earth, and serves no purpose except to destroy all incentive to innovate for new and more efficient ways to apply the energy sources we have at our disposal.

The funny thing is, the longer we put off doing anything, the more we expose how laughably false all the dire predictions have been and the more we show the Yurps and other Gaia Worshippers for the hypocrites they are. After all, it’s not like they’ve actually done anything for all these years.

Remember how they wailed that Bush was the “Toxic Texan” for informing them that the Senate had rejected the Kyoto Protocol 2 years earlier? Kyoto was 1997.....over 20 years ago. Well? What have you done to curb your emissions Yurps? Shouldn’t we all be doomed by now according to what you were claiming back in 1997? Yet we’re just fine thanks.

"In addition to Murkowski, other Republicans have been meeting in small groups to come up with a strategy on the issue: Senators John Cornyn of Texas, Cory Gardner of Colorado, Susan Collins of Maine, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Thom Tillis of North Carolina, Rob Portman of Ohio, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, and former 2012 presidential nominee Mitt Romney, now a senator representing Utah.”

The usual group of Idiots.

So-called climate change is mainly anti-science fake science by grant - grubbing - losers who wouldn’t know science if it bit them in the a**. These quisling rhinos are pathetic weak sisters.
