Denials may make the boxers feel good this moment..but it's the future of the "Worlds Infrastructure" is at risk..thus life of future generations of ALL human existence is at risk of extinction. Just because one feels they couldn't care less because it won't affect them is actually insightful
So you figure that paying carbon taxes for the benefit of the likes of algore and others plotting to benefit from this "climatechange" malarky will make it all better?

No it's not.

It's a reason for some to sound important, or at least they believe it makes them feel important.

Are you ready to start denouncing the behavior of those who, CHOOSE to have huge carbon footprints while pretending to support the cause?

Are you willing to say Obama is a hypocrite for saying AGW is a real problem while he takes a small armada nearly halfway around the globe each week to sit on that one beach in Hawaii?

Are you willing to call out the Clintons when Bill takes a private jet to Moscow to make $500,000 on a speech when they claim to believe AGW is a real issue?

I have been paying carbon taxes since 2008, and Your favorite whipping boy (Al Gore) has nothing to do with it and gets not one cent of it.

Wen I was young and the "Globe' was cooler, many more were starving. Now that the Globe is hotter, everyone has a full tummy. The predicted Global Cooling predicted to start in 2030 is more concerning.

June was the 14th straight record hot month, with Earth averaging 16.4 C (61.52 F). That is 0.9 degrees Celsius (1.62 degrees F) warmer than average and a shade above the record set in 2015. The last month Earth wasn't record hot was April 2015.

okay, the world is sick, what is the government going to do about it?


when will the government effort begin to cool the planet?


How much will it cost?


Have the efforts so far resulted in any progress?


Why not?

Keep ignoring earth's history...either way...we cannot STOP global warming no matter what as it happens even when man does not exist...

Either adapt to the coming tropical earth or leave this rock to colonize space...THEY are the only real options. Taxing and central planning for thugs and tyrants benefit isn't going to address any of our REAL options due to global warming...

Too bad it's not true huh?

Last week, a press release from the Royal Astronomical Society caught the British news media’s attention. It quickly spread to American outlets, and soon headlines blared across the Internet announcing the coming of a “mini ice age” in 15 years. “Winter is coming,” announced one. “Scientists warn the sun will 'go to sleep' in 2030,” ominously intoned another. Global warming skeptics announcing their vindication on Twitter followed shortly thereafter.
The problem is, none of this is true. An Atmospheric Scientist Explains Why That
