How about some truth?.....In the US according a Gallup poll published March 16th 2016, 65% believe that global warming is happening, and is caused by human activities..... 59% believe that the effects of AGW have already begun.....64% of Americans are worried about global warming..... U.S. Concern About Global Warming at Eight-Year High
All these figures are up substantially from a similar poll taken in 2007....
All that proves is that 65% of the people are idiots who are easily separated from their own money.
So you have no problem with completely ignoring the hypocrisy of an entire group of people that tell the general public to do one thing to make make the world a better place, but then do a 180 and do the very thing for which they rail against (i.e. tell others NOT to do)?
You have no problem with this? None whatsoever?
Wow... that's very telling...
BTW, just so you know, I despise every right wing radio talk show host ever. So before you go lumping me in with those idiots, think again.
An entire group of people eh?
How many are in this group? Who are they exactly?
It's part of the bogus fallacy that if you believe man has a part in climate change then you have to live a carbon neutral life.
The AGW crowd insists that the AGW theory is absolute. The big bang theory has learned scientists that disagree and they are not called crackpots. The theory that a meteor destroyed the dinosaurs has paleontologists who don't agree with it and they are not called crackpots. But let any scientist disagree with AGW and they are called crackpots. Makes no sense.
No that's what YOU are saying. Thats not is what happening in academia, you are only viewing the world through your conservative keyhole and you are missing a lot of what is happening. There is plenty of debate you are missing when you only go to sites like city data.
You kind of have it backwards, your crowd seems to deny that the climate changes when the geological record shows that it has for billions of years.
Christ..... That ignorance simply doesn't go away. No wonder why these threads keep happening... Folks simply aren't educated enough to talk about this.
The old " climate has changed in the past therefore, man can't change climate." Yawn.....
Climate change and science isn't about open mindedness, it's about evidence. I can see why you have a problem with this if you think one just needs an "open mind".
The Earth's climate has always been changing. So hearing a bunch of government funded lackies taking note that the Earth's climate is changing, as if that were somehow unusual, is in itself cause for skepticism not only about their motives, but also about their competence, and therefore about their supposed "expertise" as well.
And if we have learned anything from the promotion of the left's AGW alarmism agenda, it is that our so-called “experts” really do not know very much about the Earth's climate at all. Certainly not nearly enough to warrant restructuring our entire economy and giving control of that to them, which appears to be the real purpose of this movement.
Just be honest. This is political and not scientific for you.
ANYONE who resorts to the "well climate has changed in the past" schtick essentially outs themselves as ignorant. So congrats.
Plan and simple....the man made global warming hoax is a plan to introduce a world wide carbon tax.....more money for governments to redistribute.
On the other hand I've heard that Climate Change deniers are stooges for huge multi-national corporations to reverse any can safeguards or environmental regulations that could impact their profits.
Just be honest. This is political and not scientific for you.

There is a valid point there. Is the current climate change inside of the background noise of the planet?
It gets argued with religious fervor.
My take is soot started it and feed back loops keep it going, CO2 is an also ran.
