I’m certain every one of those people demanding action on climate change will be willing to accept a European-style annual carbon tax on the vehicle they drive.
Well yeah. Since we’re nazis, we want to destroy muvver erf and all living things.
I’d like action on the Socialist Left.
The current DNC is the people HUAC was convened to prevent.
MOST of the public is ignorant of the giant discrepancy between the science from the alarmists themselves and the demand for strong and immediate action now. With ignorance of that discrepancy MOST of the public has been led to believe that fullfilling all the alarmists demands now will produce some change in climate that they will see. It won’t.
If you take the science as given out by the assumptions and models the alaramists use then it is clear to anyone who looks, but not most of the public who remain ignorant, that any major immediate change in human CO2 now will have no observable impact on weather or climate for anywhere from 100 to 200 years from now. That is from the alarmists own science.
It comes from the fact that that science itself is based on the acientific assumption of how long CO2 remains in the atmosphere once it is released there from any source, natural or human. It is an extremely long time. It is so long that as ANY more CO2 is produced, it builds up in the atmosphere, because of how long what is already produced stays there.
The alarmists own science indicates immediate and huge reductions in human produced CO2 NOW will not end the increased accumululation of atmospheric CO2 and will only begin to slow it down, in maybe 100 or 200 years.
And if that science is wrong, what will be the lost economic production of earth’s economies in the generations over the next 100 to 200 years, spent chasing after CO2? Trillions of trillions of dollars.
The science and the economics say (as does nature), adapt, adapt, adapt.
“The telephone survey of 900 adults was conducted Dec. 9-12. It carries a margin for error of 3.27 percentage points.”
900 out of 300,000,000 is a LAUGHABLE Sample size.
The average attendance of a SINGLE of a Friday Night HS football game reflects the opinion of a nation.
It’s Christmas and I have a wish...
I wish for sun every day, with temperatures in the mid-70’s. So, is AlGore still accepting payments?
Why did we still have ice in the Artic this summer when Al Gore and his followers predicted no summer ice so many years ago? Where are the oceans rising? I read recently that somewhere the ocean level had risen by 0.3 %. Now I read that some scientists think a mini ice-age is coming.
In my life time it's been ice age predicted in the 70's. Then it's global warming, only to be changed to general climate change. Currently a new ice age. Pfft.
Ok I want these people “.. NBC News/ Wall Street Journal ..” to tell me what physical evidence they have that the Quaternary has ended! The Quaternary is a geologic time period characterized by cyclic (That means repeating NBC News!) transcontinental glaciations! The last glaciation (popularly known as the “Ice Age” - { Note there have been many many ice Ages!}) ended roughly 20,000 years ago. We seem to be in a warming lull of which there have been several in the Quaternary! Does “NBC News/ Wall Street “ think the last glaciation (Ice Age) was the last and I mean last glaciation (No More!)? If so what’s the physical evidence? The only physical evidence available says this is a lull and a new glaciation will occur in the future. The only question is how far out in the future will it occur!
Putting my Ned Stark hat on: “Winter is Coming!”
Its just a matter of when?
Here in AZ we deal with climate change the sensible way by turning the thermostat up or down.
What action?
Are you gonna put a shroud around the Sun?
Good bloody grief!
Climate has been changing since the beginning of time.
Where I’m sitting right now was buried under a mile of ice just a geological heartbeat ago.
Climate changes, life adapts.
I have another Christmas wish....
I wish for a poop free world....
That would certainly clean up the environment in San Fran.
Where do I send my contribution?
Regardless of how much we do, third world countries and especially China and India far outpace us in so-called "greenhouse gases" and climate adverse activity. One small volcano can undo years of liberal spending.
The American Taxpayer has better places to spend his bucks.
You don't believe in Mr. Hankey- The Christmas Poo?
I would love to see a WELL FUNDED Conservative Cable Outlet DEDICATED to debunking and challenging ALL the Liberal Media Outlets and giving a forum to REAL Scientists and Meteorologists to challenge the LIE of climate change and other issues.
Besides, this is argumentum ad populam, which is a logical fallacy.
It doesn’t matter what the majority says or what a “consensus” of scientists says.
Only the FACTS are relevant.
Climate change is known simply as climate by intelligent people
Total consensus except for that annoying 50% who don’t agree.
This reveals, again, the limitations of government by idiots voting, or in this case, by idiots being polled.
“Most Americans want action on climate change”.
So the f*** what? Idiots want lots of stupid things. What sort of “action” do you suppose they want? And what are the chances that that “action”, or any “action”, would affect the giant fusion reactor in space that governs global temperatures?
Mr. Hankey is a real entertainer. All other poo are posers and stink.
