"Climate Change" aka Global Warming in the media

bobblepuzzle

Tomorrow they'll be claiming that the severe cold snap is due to human made global warming.... by they I mean the supposed top scientists (who get paid a lot of money to prove the myth)... where do we draw the line folks? They've built a mini economy out of it worth billions... it is even political suicide these days to deny it (even though it isn't proven) and it is bad science... media outlets employ so called "Global Warming Correspondents", you think they are going to deny it... not a hope! One day we'll all fry, the next we'l freeze to death! Make up your minds! and don't give me bs about a chunk of ice breaking off

Wha?

I was going to draw the line here, but changed my mind.

I find your ideas fascinating, and would very much like to subscribe to your (scientific) newsletter.

Look up the meaning of climate and weather.

Climate encompasses the statistics of temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind, rainfall, atmospheric particle count and other meteorological elements in a given region over a long period of time. Climate can be contrasted to weather, which is the present condition of these same elements and their variations over periods up to two weeks.

Where has the Gulf Stream (which usually protects our little island from this sort of weather) gone?


Thats a change in the planets climate. Or "Climate Change" for short.

All the stats indicate a natural cycle since 1500... also, CO2 is not the cause as the oceans give out 75%, 15% by plants and animals and a meager 0.1% by human consumption of fossil fuels... please re-evaluate your position... (oh wait you can't... because you'll loose your careers :O)

Skepticism re climate change I can understand; anger/paranoia re it to the point of attacking those who disagree... comes across as fear of it being true/denial.

Whether it's a natural cycle or a man-made phenomenon is irrelevant. We are experiencing climate change.

Trying to prove or disprove climate change because it's suddenly a bit cold is sort of missing the big picture.

We dont have a position. We're a platform for discussion. We're discussing it. You started this discussion.

Really, because you came across as one of the anti everything brigade... do you agree the west should be telling people in the third world how to make power environmentally friendly? Who the **** are we to be telling them that! Thats the UN TOP SCIENTISTS FOR YA

You're insulting my intelligence by expecting me to do your work for you. If there are so many examples, it shouldn't take you too long (If I had €1 for every time I've written a version of that sentence..)

It has nothing to do with booze, and loads of them top scientists left the UN, because they couldn't subsribe to it... bad science... in protest, but there names are still their....

Can we tell em to learn from our mistakes?
Is it wrong to give em a head start on sustainable power?

You seem very exercised without any evidence

If some guy came onto a website and started shouting about how Cold Fusion was being suppressed by the Zionist media conspiracy, I'd give him about as much time.

Unless he had the protocols of the elders of zion with him of course.

You want to prove that climate change is "bull***" and seem to think a Youtube link is sufficient evidence...oh dear...

No, I couldn't be bothered trying to prove something that does not exist....

Nope just use whats available readily.. Solar, wind, water
Maybe the 3rd world can become the 1st world in renewable energy research

Who are them top UN scientists I would be interested in reading up on them

What exactly is it that you don't think is happening? Is it just that you don't agree that humans have an impact on the climate?

Nothing, because it is no doubt compiled by the media or bull**** scientists who like thier funding

bnt

Follow The Money:

• Al Gore could become world's first carbon billionaire
• IPCC Official: “Climate Policy Is Redistributing The World's Wealth”
• Namibia lobbies for 'climate change' money
• UK set for 'unprecendented investment'
• Cash strapped states divert climate change money for other projects

I don't have a strong opinion on climate change either way, and I'm frankly suspicious of anyone who does - either way.

Fair play. You seem open to the possibility that you might learn something from a debate on boards.

Yes. All the money goes to the scientists who prove there is global warming. Nothing comes from the Oil companies to the scientists who attempt to prove there isn't.

I believe, climate change is in fact happening, i dont believe humans have a huge impact on it at all tbh, i think it is hyped up for ulterior motives.

Scientists require funding but you're surely not suggesting that every one of them involved in the field are actively deceiving people to maintain themselves?

The media buy into everything.. it's up to you whether or not you buy into them. And of course people are making money from it.. that's capitalism. Don't spend your money on stuff if you don't want to.

At the end of the day it doesn't really matter if it's caused by man or not. The outcome of changing climates doesn't change.. and the money is also going into better understanding what those changes mean and developing ways to deal with it when it does.

This is a serious matter, whether I buy a paper or not is irrelevant, the fact is that the 'scientists' you refer to are overpaid c**nts that will defend their position...
