Like a left wing progressive cares about grandchildren. They come across as drug addled hippy burnouts so self absorbed I doubt they even have contact with their grandkids.
They don't care about the borders, terrorism, jobs, the debt, drugs, crime and a failing education system. But they'll sit there and defiantly display their ignorance and parrot what paid scientists are saying even if they're as scientifically illiterate as they come and have no idea what to do about it.
Give me a break, that ^ is just absolute nonsense.
You cherry picked a graph, just like you cherry picked one quote out of a 7 page article earlier to make your case. Skeptical Science can back up their discussion with facts, they promote science.
The question is, why are you bringing up a false claim of global cooling in the 1970's when the discussion is about loss of ice in the arctic. Did you read the entire article you commented on earlier or do you just move on to google to find a different story.
So did you read the rest of the article you chose to post or just that one paragraph.

....because the conversation was about global cooling being a myth
Here's a list of 285 published science papers saying the earth was cooling
You give him a lot of credit, I would say " ... because I can't think."
Those graphs show that the temperature in the 60s, 70s, dropped, which doesn't align with the narrative, so now they just say that was wrong and temperatures have risen without interruption.
Nobody said that. Below is an explanation of the cooling between the 40s and 70s
Here is the most reasonable explanation of what happened based on what we know:
The greenhouse gases increased the positive forcing (warming) and the aerosols increased the negative forcing (cooling). During the time between the mid 40's to the 70's, the negative forcing was strong enough to override the positive forcing of the additional greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
The aerosol pollution got so bad that we had acid rain beginning to destroy crops and destroy the protective ozone layer in our upper atmosphere. So while we had the advantage of the aerosol pollution to offset global warming, the pollution was killing our food supply and causing cancer.
The result was the Montreal Protocol to reduce atmospheric pollutants and aerosols. Everyone remembers CFC's, skin cancer, and the Styrofoam problem.
So we cleaned up to save our food, air & skin..., it worked!

Why yes, I do....find one of those graphs that's fake or made up.....if you can't, they are credible
...so climate denier blogs (even though the links had nothing to do with that) are not credible
but The Atlantic magazine is the epicenter for scientific research.......
Do you guys really get spoon fed like this?...you don't look things up?...you just buy into whatever the media tells you?
No I accept the science and you accept whatever the denier blogs tell you.
