Well we might as well keep all of the old taxes and add some news ones that way we’re ahead of the game when the earth is warming again.



The way I see it is, we need 2 taxes. The global warming tax and the global cooling tax... or are we back on climate change tax?

Hell, lets just have a weather tax and quit making shite up on the fly.

It's not "Global Warming" anymore. It's "climate change". And cooling is a "change" in "climate". See. Climate Change. You can never be wrong with such a nebulous description

Didn't say they were.

Just that they misrepresent the conclusions.

Every climate scientist has been saying that antarctic ice has been increasing, the problem is that ice in Greenland is melting faster than Antarctic ice is amassing, by a lot.


Are we headed for warming, cooling, or nothing?

Maybe those scientist who say that the recent warming was mostly the result of sun activity and not anthropogenic, and who are now saying that we should expect that solar activity to subside and we should see cooling are correct? The activist realize this and are trying to get a narrative out ahead of that cooling so that it is still blamed on fossil fuels.

It's a complicated issue system. Overall warming can result in unpredictable weather patterns, because weather in the atmosphere is complicated. You understand this but for some reason want the entire discussion boiled down to one phrase.

From what I gather, you're against taxes and would argue against a scientific consensus to that end. So if there was a way to fight this problem without taxes, could we move past this pedantic bullshite?

There was a real ice age that melted away 12k years ago...likely melted due to the younger drys incident

The ‘one phrase’ was conveniently changed so that it could be a catch-all when the data doesn’t support the latest doomsday prediction being pimped out to change or even control people’s lives in the West.

If I was a true believer on ‘your side’ I would want to move on from this fact too.

And this: How is it ‘green’ when forests and natural habitat is being wiped out in the South to build solar farms?

Solar farms aren't a good alternative as of yet, the technology needs improvement. Hydro and nuclear are far better options. But just from an air quality position, solar farms are superior to fossil fuels.

I honestly dont get some of yall's objection to green energy and the politicization of climate science. I mean I really dont get it.

Cool. So frick all the local animals that are losing their habitat so that we can focus on air quality that could be causing warming, or cooling, or both at the same time.
