When true climate believers start offing themselves en masse because they can’t bear the guilt of knowing that they are killing the planet anymore, then I will believe it is serious.

Once we reach the 'point of no return', then we all be able to safely ignore all this global warming nonsense, right? Because, in the words of one of the great minds of our time: "What difference does it make?"

Yes, we have reached the “point of no return”, so you can shut up...maybe even beat the odds by committing mass suicide.

The rest of us will just have to try to tough it out.

So shut up about it, already.

“What is the best way to measure how close we are to the dreaded “point of no return” with climate change?”

When there is no more money to extort from productive society.

Mommy, I'm scared! Temperatures have gone up since the end of the Little Ice Age. I think we're all going to die.

Always moving the goalpost. Paul Erlich said we were doomed by 1980 unless humanity changed its ways. Then 1990. Then Al Gore said 2000 was doomsday. Then a variety of doomsayers were quoted in the press as saying each year between then and now was earth’s final chance. Now it’s moved back to 2020 with the devastating effects only to arrive when toddlers today are very old. And yet billions are spent today to forestall the unlikely.

Yes. I'm sick to death of hearing about it.

At least ‘religious’ End Of The World fanatics don’t demand tax support.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Yup. When the enviro-liars noticed the temps weren't going up like they wanted, they changed the temperature monitoring stations, placing them near heat-vents of buildings and in hot parking lots. So they're comparing hotter results against earlier monitoring stations that were in normal locations. Then there are the fraudulent captures of data where they toss out the low numbers and inflate the higher numbers, all for the sake of getting more government grants. It's all a con game.
