They can identify mans contribution to the atmospheric CO2 via the ratio of differing isotopic signatures of CO2 produced naturally and that produced by fossil fuels.

They can then test the change over time in heat retention/absorption properties of the atmosphere via spectroscopy. No models, predictions, or prognostications necessary.

So saying that there is no evidence of our contribution makes you the liar.

Not at all, I think anyone who uses such a word is an idiot who relies on politics and activist Alinksy tactics rather than scientific process.

I also know that if the tables were turned you people would be throwing out and out tantrums.

You people make insulting references (referring to Hitler), you make videos of killing people who do not toe the line of your ideology, you put up wanted posters and accuse any scientists who are skeptical of being criminals who should be imprisoned, you seek means to arrest and imprison all who disagree, you talk about charging those with crimes, killing them, etc...


Sorry, but your peoples message has become a joke. Nobody cares what you think.

I think you may be thinking of someone else. Because I'm just as appalled as you are, seeing people do the things you listed above.

A poorly worded poll hardly compares to those atrocities though.

Don't you understand that you are personally responsible for other peoples words because they share some label with you!?

The thing is though, I don't like to label myself at all. Well, maybe I'd label myself a political mutt.

Lmao.

Tell me more about myself, since you seem to think you know me so well (or at all). Let's start with my favorite color.

Oh that's even worse, if you don't identify as anything then you are responsible for everything that anyone anywhere on any side says.

Pretty sad when you see people attack and deny something they don't even understand.

Stop trying to say you're individual. You're a "progressive" and you all believe the same things!!!
