They don't even know the difference between a man and a woman, so why in God's name would you expect them to know anything about something as complex as climate change?

Climate change is nothing but a progressive liberal agenda item designed to mask the true aim of taxing folks at exhorbitant rates and redistributing wealth as a means of funding their concept of universal basic income and securing a perpetual voting block advantage.

I don't think most deny it. What most Republicans don't like is false data. It makes it hard for people to gauge what is really going on and what the best solution to this issue is. There is a reason USGS employees are required to take scientific integrity training now because of data they released in the pass to intentionally mislead the public.

To me it isn't as much about global warming as it is sustainability. You take care of sustainability and the rest takes care of itself, including climate control.

And if you want to really confuse a liberal ask them why the funding for the NERC (National Energy Research Center) only seems to increase when a Republican is in charge? Truth is the NERC was started by a Dem, but since then then budget has always been reduced or stayed the same under Dem control. Only increases when Republicans control the budget.

What are your personal credentials to argue that man-made climate change is real?

That is the heart of the matter. I’ve asked this question to every climate change zealot I know and have never gotten an answer.

If 70-80% of medical doctors said that a fetus feels pain during abortion, im sure republicans would go with the majority of scientific opinion. For some reason Republicans are hell bent on siding with the very slim minority of climate scientists. Republicans and Democrats (sheep) believe in science when it's convenient for their agenda.

The climate argument is retarded. Liberals really believe there’s a bubble around the earth that holds the air in? A meteor would have popped it by now

Of course there is human contribution to climate change. But it's on the same lines as if a single kid pisses off the top of Niagara Falls. What's the impact? The Dems response is, "Oh no! All of that water is polluted forever!"

The Republican's response is, "Hmmm, he should have better manners, but what he did isn't anything worse than Mother Nature having a deer die of old age up-stream and decay in the water."

Carbon dioxide is NOT a pollutant. It is a trace gas REQUIRED for life as we know it to exist on this planet. If anything, a little too little CO2 would be a much bigger problem than a little too little.

Humans are voracious polluters. CO2 just isn't one of the big problems as I see it. Contributes to, perhaps a few percentage points of a natural, clearly cyclical pattern of ice ages, interglacial periods and "greenhouse" eras. A few percentage points - maybe a few tenths of a degree Celsius up to maybe 1 degree. AT MOST.

It is simply not cost effective, in my mind, to aggressively reduce emissions at the expense of economic activity, agricultural production, energy usage to give back gains in quality of life on the planet to avoid a few tenths of a degree of change.

This has always been a transparent attempt by global governing bodies to regulate (and redistribute) energy production and consumption in an effort to impose a global form of energy Marxism.

It isn't any more complicated than that.

How about those of us that just don't care about it and wish the rest of you would shut your yaps.


Put your money where your mouth is and stop breeding if you are so fearful the planet will become a shite show for future generations.
