If I believe that God created the world in 6 days then rested on the 7th and I going to tally up events in the book then it comes to about 6000 years give or takeQuote:

If I had said my exact same statement to someone on the extreme left I’d get shouted down for not agreeing that it’s all man made.
The centre of politics - where sensible debate can happen to encourage good government. Unfortunately, there is no longer sensible debate. More like arguing and arrogance from both "sides".Quote:

People should start resorting to facts, and actually fact check them first as well.Quote:

Who needs facts when you can let the media, god, activist groups or social media decide for you.Quote:

incidentally member, do you understand what an isotope is? do they teach that sort of science at Kincumber South High?
Apart from....... the increase in temperatures globally over the last 100 years?Quote:

There is proof that climate change exists. Everyone agrees on that part, you obviously weren't listening.Quote:

No need to thank me. Just pay more attention please member.
read the article and it doesn't say much - the comments are gold though, as you'd expectQuote:

What you are doing is cherry picking one statistic to further your argument yet the real8ty is there ain't concrete weather data going back 500 years to back up your claim
Also if Climate Change was real explain Greta??
Because if the leftists greenies had any actual real evidence they wouldn't be wheeling out some kid with autism who can't articulate much as soon as her handlers don't give her a script to read

Just believe in climate change.
Non believers will be punished in a fiery earth.
If you believe, there is hope that you will not die a fiery death.
Remind you of anything?
Except like, there’s science to back this one up.
The whole debate is lost. It's Natural climate change vs human contributed CC. Naturally it happens, no debate.
Australia's contribution to CC is negligible. Sorry commie & Green goons, youre shot down there.
But theres an opportunity to create Green tech to influence the rest of the globe to adopt in due course. Sooner the better.
We cant shut down oil and coal this weekend. The consequences would be economic disaster, societal anarchy and the murder of Green voters. On second thoughts pull the plug.
I did like the theory that if you believe in human-contributed climate change and actively work to delay or prevent this, but in the end your belief was wrong, the worst thing you're doing is altering lifestyles that can again be changed and theoretically making the world a better place in the process, but for no real reason. If you don't believe and keep going as current, and you are wrong - you've actively helped kill the world. It's like when you bet against the Jerks, if they lose as predicted at least you have a form of win, but if they win you lose your money but they've won so you're happy. Working on the human-contributed climate change theory/belief is the lowest risk, highest gain path to take here - I haven't seen much to convince otherwise.
Who needs facts if you have faith???Quote:

EDIT: I should note that if you measure Carbon emissions as a function of GDP Afghanistan and Zimbabwe fails miserably in comparison to developed nations.
That’s a terrible analogy. Reducing carbon emissions does not automatically correlate to reducing GDP, quality of life, etc.Quote:

I don't mean to come across as a dickhead - but geez some of my posts are downright horrible.
Yes I'm a bit older but I clearly remember being in school in 1974 and being taught about climate change in social studies. We were reading and hearing about the onset of the next Ice Age and Halleys Comet smashing into Earth.
I do believe climate change is real but I also believe it is cyclical and mainly natural. I have just heard too many conflicting stories on the end of the world over the years to have any belief what we are fed by the media.
That is my opinion.
"Know For Yourself"
so the fact we can without doubt tell that the carbon in the atmosphere comes from the burning of the fossil fuels we're digging up still doesn't change that? if you disagree then you explain it, please
why is it that older folks can't seem to appreciate this?
I'm mid 40s, so I am old enough to say I'm old
in my lifetime, 75% of anthropogenic carbon has been released
if we're talking old man anecdotes, I can't remember a single day over 40 degrees from my childhood, yet we seem to get about three to five a summer now
old man opinions are one thing, but you have to realise where they're influences come from - if it's from education and actual experts and study and understanding of science - but if it's from the a political bent then it needs interrogation
It's very hard to convey a strong point via text and not come across as angry. Re-reading your own posts is a great way to learn this and use it when reading anyone else's posts (Not aimed at you directly Dunster, good for everyone to do IMO.). I do it and feel bad about the way things sound after i've read them a few days or weeks later even.Quote:

Don't think I miss you that muchQuote:

Anyone seen him in 2020??
He probs still o/seas in China contracting Corolla Flu and ironing out a few more details in regards to his offer to Marty to acquire a 20% stake in the Jets.
Plague hasn't posted here in over a month. I'm starting to get concerned. I hope he's ok.
Maybe he got Corona virusQuote:
