Yeah, like anthropogenic global warming or something.

[Nightshade]

How do you come to that conclusion?

easy. one mans' interpretation of the bible is no more right than anothers. It's not like we're dealing with hard and fast facts.

Yeah, like anthropogenic global warming or something.

Like the hottest summer on record ever was simply an interpretation, huh?

That's weather, not climate.

All big words USA about the threat of anthropogenic climate change, actually, this is an American effort to legalize its political and economic leverage and control of other countries to deter the economic development of developing countries and weaken the economies of other developed countries to save the global dominance of the USA economy. Even the blind can see it.
Only Americans can believe that the U.S. is sincerely trying to prevent anthropogenic impact on the climate )

Tell me. what does weather exist in?

In other news, the stage is set for another round of mass shootings. How many weeks is it going to be this time? six? five? or maybe four?

[woodchip]

anyone who thinks that man has no influence on climate is an idiot. I'll say it as often as I have to.

Considering we are now facing the Maunder Minimum, I'd say the real idiots are those who think we are the cause of warming.

Like the weather flat lining is not a fact.

Like the weather flat lining is not a fact.

not only is it NOT a fact, it is a complete lie. We've shown that to be the case, yet you repeat it. Still makes the assertion complete nonsense. How could the average global temperature keep rising EVERY SINGLE YEAR be 'flat-lining'? Answer-it isn't.

The answer is, the temp. rise is so small that the cumulative effect is a flat line. And no, you have proved nothing.

[callmeslick]

The answer is, the temp. rise is so small that the cumulative effect is a flat line. And no, you have proved nothing.

so, when you present to the ER with a body temp of 103, the fact that it's only been rising 0.1 degree per hour over the last ten hours means your fever
is 'flatlining'? That is a really good analogy.


Now, for the record, I am NOT of a mind to put a lot of faith in any plan I've ever heard to reverse the trend. At best, we can hope to slow it(even further, which CAN be done, woody)to a real flatline and study the hell out of ways to adapt to the effects of the elevation we have. Actually reversing the VAST human effects since around 1840 isn't going to happen overnight, but the possibility of reversing the rise a bit SHOULD be studied. Here again, one has to consider or even overweight any possibility of unseen harm from tinkering with nature. Where I get disgusted is when deniers and their lackeys in the GOP block all funding for such research and preparation, as it seems politically inconvenient. That is selling out your grandkids entire existence for cheap ideological points, and should be viewed as nothing more.

[Ferno]

Slick, you're doing it wrong. Everything you say is just going to reinforce their position. It's disturbingly impressive, really. Denialism isn't a label. It's a process.
