Global Warming Is Bull$#@!

[Ravi]

What's dopey about it? I have ironclad proof (from an op-ed) by a reputable source (who is not a scientist) that global warming is a myth. Clearly, it must be true.

aside from the obvious your assumptions are dopey.

...and I know this because I read it in an opinion article by someone who isn't a scientist, therefore I am correct and no amount of sciencey articles will change that.

Right?

Google Richard Lindzen who is perhaps the worlds greatest science professor with his specialty being global climate. If you think he is full of it, read more comics.

I would happily show you some of his research peer reviewed but it comes in PDF format allowing you to easy produce it and charts and proofs, not what this forum needs.

I’m not sure whether this is meant to be serious or not, if it is I’m staying well clear of it. The global warming/climate change statistics alone can bring on migraines and those not fully believing the presented ‘facts’ want to destroy the world.

A few hundred years ago the Thames river (salt water) flowing through London used to regularly freeze over. In the 70’s I distinctly remember the forecasts of a coming ice age. When that didn’t happen they changed the term to ‘global warming’. That didn’t happen either, so it then became, ‘climate change’.

Both terms produced the desired outcome? The one thing in the world you were told was free, (air), isn’t any longer. Along with ‘cow farts’ and producing smoke from your BBQ’s, you’re now the problem, you dangerous little carbon dioxide exhaling planet destroyer. It’s your fault and you can now be taxed on it!

Not enough revenue from that? Let’s produce emission control certificates for your vehicle and pollution control certificates for businesses, which governments can sell on their own little stock market. Pollute as much as you want, but you need to buy a certificate first.

Here’s a prediction; along with erupting volcanoes, the odd tsunami and occasional warm, or cold winters, worry not. The earth was here long before you came and it will be here long after you’ve left. The difference is that someone cleverer than us figured out a way to make money from it. I’m just a bit upset that I didn’t think of it before the Al Gore’s and Michael Moore’s got their sticky fingers on the profit!

Maybe we can find a religion major to weigh in, @Ravi ?

[Green Arrow]

Nope, you're all wrong. My op-ed by a non-scientist proves it.

You certainly figured out the kooks who take the blame for climate. It is extremely arrogant to suppose that a tiny fraction of CO2 in the millionths managed to warm up the entire planet.

I have things to worry about. Things like will China wake up and attack America? You know, stuff like the economy of Europe and USA. How weird I am worried about a thing man can control.

The planet is warming. The why's I'm not sure about, but I'm not going to pretend it is not.

Rest easy Bob, China aren’t going to attack. That’s why they’re busily ploughing their money into bailing out the west, they want the markets back again.

You can't lose with climate change. If the climate changes to what you want it's because you paid from your taxes towards it and so have to keep paying to keep it that way and if it doesn't you've got to pay more to make it work.
