We are in a 50 year solar minimum, which has been cooling the planet.

If you are concerned about CO2, YOU NEED TO:

1. stop using air conditioning
2. stop using central heating
3. stop driving a car
4. don't take any flights
5. don't use plastics
6. don't use a lawnmower
7. start planting trees everywhere you can
8. show how to offset the reduced food production with lower CO2 levels
9. don't have any children
10. advocate mass sterilization of "the poor"

Of course, no liberal will do ANYTHING to reduce CO2 themselves (that is the job of other people). That is fortunate, as the planet needs MORE CO2, not less.

No one ever indicated the earth wasn't warmer before, it was a rather unpleasant place to live at that time unless you were a lizard.

Arrogance is to think that burning fossil fuels which have been stored in the ground for billions of years can't change the climate. Maybe you have a scientific paper to back up your claim that increased levels of CO2 and other greenhouse gases don't heat up the earth, I will wait.

Really bad fires across the globe, the US west, Greece even Siberia on fire, just a bad summer?

climate change is showing itself in global ocean current change which is not really relatable to local temperature highs and lows..so we have a vocal minority that whines about any effect at all
Now how exactly does an average change across the earth not relate to local highs in many places, if the local temperatures were never high how does the average temperature increase

This are scientific predictions and measurements by the way.

Yes. They say that CO2 levels were this high 2 million years ago. Care to guess what the climate was like then?

Suckers. By the time you realize you've been played, the entire world will have changed, you'll be on the bottom rung of a two rung ladder, along with 99.99999% of the rest of the world.

I couldn’t care less about climate change, and I don’t trust anything reported by CNN.

Climate change agenda is for controlling economies.



Fact is China is the biggest polluter on earth and they get a pass..WHY? Do democrats have a brain?



Why are we singled out? We are now in the degrowth period to stifle our growth, make us beholden to China to make electric vehicles because they have the elements needed to produce the electric engine. We don't.


Fact is God is in control of our climate. God speaks how in the last days when people grow corrupt , that natural disasters with take place , along with drought, floods, sickness, plagues, earthquakes will be ever increasing. Signs are good is bad and bad is good.


People will have increased ability to have knowledge and be able to go to and fro at a much higher rate. We have the internet to know what is going on around the world in minutes. We have air travel to move people to and fro.



Yes, we are seeing the signs of what God has told us in his Bible. Times will get increasingly more corrupt and suffering will increase along with more natural disasters. If one has not read the Bible and understood it they are not educated for what is happening today.

Why did you use CNN for the source? Plenty of other sources.

https://www.economist.com/science-an...worlds-climate

https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-c...-idUSKBN2FA0JX

Report from the scientists of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1



Also, your title is odd. That's not the key question. But I see what you're doing.

We are in trouble.
