Arnold Schwarzenegger: Trump is 'crazy,' and world's 'biggest evil is fossil fuels'
The Washington Times ^ | December 5, 2018 | Douglas Ernst

Posted on 12/05/2018 11:35:30 AM PST by jazusamo

Arnold Schwarzenegger took a page out of his “Terminator” playbook this week while reflecting on the world’s “biggest evil” — fossil fuels.

The actor told attendees at a United Nations climate conference in Poland on Monday that billions of people around the globe would have benefited without the early adoption of coal and other fossil fuels for energy.

The actor and former California governor added that President Trump is “meshugge” (Yiddish for “crazy”) for abandoning a 2015 climate change agreement as part of his “America First” campaign vow.

Surprised he is still alive considering all the roids he has done..
~~~
I have previously wondered if he’s had liver or kidney transplants done on the down low, perhaps overseas. When he was young he didn’t know much about cycles and stacks. The doctor in the gym he first went to dosed him with such much juice a blue whale would get ripped

No, the world’s biggest evil is those that spout hyped-up misinformation.

My daughter had the little H3 Hummer it was the best car we ever owned. My daughter totaled it in a terrible accident and it saved her life.little cars aren’t always the best way to go. Saving gas isn’t the #1 concern with young drivers.

No fossil fuels/oil? Okay, then go all Terminator and go naked and live in the streets because oil is used for and in just about everything we have.

Wasn’t there a post here asking if beachfront property prices are falling, or if, future beachfront property is being offered for sale at inland locations?

From Should We Celebrate Carbon Dioxide?
It does boggle the mind in the face of our knowledge that the level of CO2 has been steadily falling that human CO2 emissions are not universally acclaimed as a miracle of salvation. From direct observation we already know that the extreme predictions of CO2’s impact on global temperature are highly unlikely given that about one-third of all our CO2 emissions have been discharged during the past 18 years and there has been no statistically significant warming. And even if there were some additional warming that would surely be preferable to the extermination of all or most species on the planet.

You heard it here. “Human emissions of carbon dioxide have saved life on Earth from inevitable starvation and extinction due to lack of CO2”. To use the analogy of the Atomic Clock, if the Earth were 24 hours old we were at 38 seconds to midnight when we reversed the trend towards the End Times. If that isn’t good news I don’t know what is. You don’t get to stave off Armageddon every day.

I issue a challenge to anyone to provide a compelling argument that counters my analysis of the historical record and the prediction of CO2 starvation based on the 150 million year trend. Ad hominem arguments about “deniers” need not apply. I submit that much of society has been collectively misled into believing that global CO2 and temperature are too high when the opposite is true for both. Does anyone deny that below 150 ppm CO2 that plants will die? Does anyone deny that the Earth has been in a 50 million-year cooling period and that this Pleistocene Ice Age is one of the coldest periods in the history of the planet?

If we assume human emissions have to date added some 200 billion tons of CO2 to the atmosphere, even if we ceased using fossil fuels today we have already bought another 5 million years for life on earth. But we will not stop using fossil fuels to power our civilization so it is likely that we can forestall plant starvation for lack of CO2 by at least 65 million years. Even when the fossil fuels have become scarce we have the quadrillion tons of carbon in carbonaceous rocks, which we can transform into lime and CO2 for the manufacture of cement. And we already know how to do that with solar energy or nuclear energy. This alone, regardless of fossil fuel consumption, will more than offset the loss of CO2 due to calcium carbonate burial in marine sediments. Without a doubt the human species has made it possible to prolong the survival of life on Earth for more than 100 million years. We are not the enemy of nature but its salvation.

“This guy single-handedly popularized Hummers”

He owns a military tank. The hummer is his sportster.

[[world’s ‘biggest evil is fossil fuels’]]

Who’s the one who is crazy Ahnowd? How was your walk today since you apparently believe fossil fuels are evil? Or did you ride a carbon belching horse? Who bought your humvees and private planes? So your house runs on all solar and wind energy, right?

Yeah didn’t think so hypocrite!

BINGO!! Its the playgroud for the ultra wealthy that doesn,t have anything REAL to do!!

Arnold is seen as a CHEating creep in Hollywood, and has been persona non grata, so he HAS to do something to get back in their good graces.

Arnold should be transported back to say 1600 and see what is life is like without fossil fuels.

He’s Macron with an Austrian accent and just as obtuse to the real world consequences of a carbon tax.
