I'm a true believer in the scientific method. Putting forth a hypothesis, testing it with data, and then admitting it is wrong is a part of science. First we believed the Sun and planets orbited the Earth. Then accurate measurements were taken and that theory didn't work. Copernicus proved it wrong and said the Earth orbits the Sun. Science accepted the new theory while conservative church elders ridiculed him for his preposterous ideas. Sound familiar?
If the climate deniers can publish a body of evidence disproving man-caused climate change and have a majority of scientists accept their claims, then I will happily change sides.
If you are a true believer in the scientific method, then you know that it is up to you to prove your claim, not up to others to disprove it.
There is some common sense to the science that the left has turned into lunacy (like everything else they get involved with)
It took tiny one cell creatures on the surfaces of the oceans eons to process the carbon heavy, toxic atmosphere of the Earth and make it breathable for humans and other mammals. They absorbed the toxicity and secreted oxygen. When they died they settled to the oceans floor and created these huge deposits of oil.
For the last 150 years humans have been busy bringing this oil to the surface and turning back into toxic gasses and carbon in the air. That a simple fact and to think it’s not affecting things is crazy.
But again, how badly are we affecting things?
It boils down to too many people needing too many resources.
Getting rid of gas cars will just shift the burden of creating energy to another source .... which will also eventually cause pollution, etc.
And trading "carbon credits" on Wall Street...that's a joke in itself that countries are saving the plant by trading virtual nothingness.
Ultimately it boils down to population control.....which no one dares to talk about.
Science is not created thru polled responses. People thought the earth was flat too, because they were told it was so. There is no difference here, when hoaxers convince people that weather equals climate. When people are lied to that weather patterns and cycles in their lifetime are caused by humans, when the same exact weather patterns have existed for all time.
Show me in the last 10,000 years where the climate was stable, flat and perfect. If anything, we are currently experiencing a cooling phase, and yet you want to pretend we are burning up.
If the response is what they are looking for then it becomes "science".
37% and rising. Climate change isn't just an abstract scientific concept, it's starting to kill people. The giveaway that it is manmade climate change is that the increasing rate of heat death is occurring independently across all continents, in parallel with the increasing rate of extreme weather events all across the globe.
Climate change deniers, by spreading disinformation, are complicit in a small way in these deaths.

Yeah, and Al Gore said we'd all be under water by now. When I was a kid in the 1970s, it was a new ice age that was going to be our undoing. As has been posted, fears sells. Rational adults don't get themselves all worked up over this nonsense.
Blame the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, it decides if we have dry, hot, wet or cold weather. And don't try and blame human activity and climate change for it.
Hard to blame El Nino in a La Nina year isn't it?...You anti science folk. Lol.
After a record-tying warm year in 2020, the world is on track for a cooler year in 2021, driven by moderately strong La Niña conditions in the late part of 2020 and early 2021. However, 2021 will almost certainly be one of the Top 10 warmest years since records began in the mid-1800s.
No, it isn't. Go read newspapers from NYC from the late 1880s to 1920s.
Living in the past are you? News flash...It's 2021.
