Educate me on Climate Change

Climate change is real

Man probably has some effect on it

But man's effect on it is greatly exaggerated by people, many of whom have a vested stake in it

Climate change is real. Human impact on it is little to nonexistent.

The sun penetrates our atmosphere and the rays get reflected back into space. The more co2 in the atmosphere the harder it is for the rays to escape back into space. So the heat sticks around more than it should and it warms the planet. It's called the Greenhouse Effect.

Most scientists say humans are to blame for increasing the co2.

Some say humans have little effect.

Some say humans do have an effect but the doomsday scenarios are greatly exaggerated.


I fall in the camp of the last one, that people are exaggerating the effects.

I think we should try to bring emissions down, but not go nuts with it where we hurt regular folks over it.

All that smog you see in most industrial cities in China is not a big deal to the atmosphere. Here in Louisiana we are called cancer alley, not because of all the plants dumping waste into the river and releasing whatever is burning into our atmosphere but because of delicious seafood, right?

Just don't listen to anything related to Gore or Obama. Anyone they collaborate with should be ignored.

1. Based on ice core data, the Earth has been cooling for the last 10,000 years There have been multiple fluctuations within the trend, including the last 140 years.

2. the 97% concensus number is fabricated and I have provided quotes from members of scientists that were counted in the 97% that say their work was misrepresented.

3. CO2 leading warming is theoretical only. Based on ice core data, temperature leads CO2 by 800-1000 years.

4. Data from NASA where heat was observed passing through the ceiling of the greenhouse showed far more heat actually escaping than even the most conservative models predict.

5. Hacked emails show there was a conspiracy among some scientists to mislead the public.

6. The words "the debate is over" is a huge red flag in relation to science

7. Based on ice core data, the last few hundred thousand years have been nothing but rapid, consistent climate change, much of which was far more drastic than the last 140 years.

We're in a cold phase. Morons seem to think warming up at dime point is unexpected.

Few of any of the climate change chicken littles have ever bothered to read anything past the last 150 years or so.

Thanks for the cartoon. Here's a cartoon for you.

Dinosaurs and their SUVs have been fricking up the climate long before sapiens were a twinkle in erectus' eye
