So I'm fairly conservative. This is my stance on "climate change"

1. I think there is something to it

2. I think humans have something to do with it

That being said, here is my problem with climate change (or more appropriately the "science" media's reporting on the matter)

How is literally almost every negative science event under the sun immediately attributed to climate change? I saw an article today that fish are growing to be smaller because of climate change. Tomorrow it will be that penguins are going extinct. The next day it will be x y z.

Why are there seemingly never any articles that highlight the positives of climate change? Certainly it has to benefit some species or some systems. Even if the whole thing is a huge net negative there has to be some positives. And you will never hear about them.

Because there's more money spent on "climate change" shite than the GDP of most nations.

The benefits are obvious and undeniable: longer growing seasons and more habitable land. Both those mean the lower class benefits. Anything that closes the gap between the elites and common man is shunned.

Fish getting smaller?

Sounds strange. There were some mighty big critters back when the Earth was warmer.

Google the psychology of loss aversion.
