Is this still being discussed?? Seriously??
With the bevy of papers and data out there demonstrating that, if there even is climate change happening in one direction or another, it isn't anthropogenic... how is there still debate?
- lol. Dude, miko was baiting you ALL last week, where the fuck were you?Khurram
- hey! Busy as a one armed paper hanger with an itchy butt. Looks like i missed out.teleos
- was it in this thread?teleos

Australia's NT had a MINIMUM overnight temperature of 29.7° yesterday. Another record.

They are proving their position. Read some of the papers I posted in this thread, for pete's sake. And that's just a few of the reports I've seen. At best, there is highly conflicting data but which strongly suggests that humans can't do a thing about what's going on, as noble a notion as it may be to champion such a cause.

Beyond Catastrophe
A New Climate Reality Is Coming Into View"Right now, it's estimated that 10 million people are dying every year from the air pollution produced primarily from the burning of fossil fuels - about 8.7 million from the burning of fossil fuels. Some estimates are a little lower, but they all run into the millions. We're talking about millions of premature deaths every year from the burning of fossil fuels. And we can eliminate those deaths if we get off fossil fuels and power our economies through renewable energy." - New York Times science writer David Wallace

Risk of American 'megadroughts' for decades, NASA warns

Lowimpakt - take water fluoridation - it's been done for decades, doctors say it's poisonous, responsible for all kinds of illnesses, allergies and cancers (ie. bowel cancer).
Yet still water is polluted with fluoride in many western countries, including Ireland. 20 years is some history, but doesn't add credibility by itself.- that's industry, and not much of a public outcryspifflink

from the report headline statements: http://report.ipcc.ch/sr15/pdf/s…
D5. Limiting the risks from global warming of 1.5°C in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication
implies system transitions that can be enabled
by an increase of adaptation and mitigation investments,
policy instruments, the acceleration of technological innovation and behaviour changes.well...it's not that they don't know what to do or how to do it.
it's about implementing the plan.
now how do you convince elected and non elected leaders of modern societies worldwide to root for it...

^well said.
Bizarrely the temperature rose dramatically up until the start of the 70's, when mass production and fossil fuel burning was become massive. But then it slowed massively and is still not as rapid in increase as it was then.
Showing that their is very little that links man made Co2 and temperature change.
However I dont agree with polluting the air and cutting down masses of trees and over fishing the seas on an unsustainable basis. Over fishing in particular, thems little algae folk produce more oxygen than anything else. (like 70% of all oxygen is algae produce iirc)

If I was a scientist why the fuck would I make up man made climate info to get grants when I can just deny it and get tonnes from oil companies? You can't really prove a negative in the scientific world and the non-man-made climate change theory as being elaborated on by corporate science shills is just that. It was first a real fact and issue but now its reverse psycology and false and meaningless debate.

It doesn't make any difference that the earth's temperature has fluctuated wildly in the past, or whether the current changes are man made or part of a wider pattern. Man made climate change isn't the issue - climate change is the issue. We can try to do something about it, or we can do nothing and just be thankful that we aren't encased in ice like our ancestors.
