    It isn't settled! Stop spouting that line... It is never settled in actual science... shame your a naive fool

    Of course it’s settled. And plenty of science is settled.

    There’s no way that adding carbon to the atmosphere can’t warm the atmosphere.

    See, there you go displaying intolerance again.

    I believe in climate change, vaccinations, I was in NY in 9-11, haven't a clue what an alien pyrimid is and having traveled the globe, its round alright.

    People won't change their mind just because you insult them or make fun of them, if anything it lessens your argument and makes them determined to show you up for being as you yourself put it "foolish and naive". So, take a step back, and try to rationalise without having to insult the person you are discussing it with.

    If you take the time to look back on my posts, I don't deny climate change, F von P posted that humans are the cause of climate change. My point then, as now, is that human behaviour contributes to climate change, but it is not the only factor, and I gave an example of how climate change occurred independently of human behaviour. I am not as knowledgable as you about this, I don't really care to be honest, but that seems to rile you up, it shouldn't, you should be more tolerant of those who disagree with you and aren't as interested in it as you are. If you want respect, don't mock the people you are discussing it with.

    In relation to understanding it or the capicity for revelation, I have a Science degree, I understand scientific research just a teensy weensy bit.

    It doesn’t really matter if the climate changed in the past prior to human behaviour. What matters is that it is now changing because of human behaviour, and how rapidly.

    You do all realise that we are on the Upside of the coldest epoch the world has ever seen?
    The last 50 thousand years are the coldest the Earth had Ever experienced,!!!

    Nowhere near it.

    There was a glacial period where the earth was a snowball, or very nearly, about 500M years ago. The current ice age isn’t that strong an ice age, and anyway it’s what we humans can survive in (or at least we can survive the inter glacial). The earth and life will survive long after we perish, if we do. What matters is the range of temperatures human civilisation can survive in.

    All you climate change/global warming alarmists should listen to this:

    We're all in this psy-op together.🤨

    What bates me dead is how there's environmentalists who think it's somehow possible to keep the modern consumerist economy alive while getting rid of the associated environmental problems.

    Surely the right job would be to turf out consumerism first and clean up the mess later? Though that would be 'going backwards' and nobody seriously wants to consider doing that. Tis almost as taboo as population control.

    Nop. Apparently we can all keep going through loads of plastic and smartphones from China and buying other unnecessary sh1te and the 'circular economy' will solve our problems and the world will be saved despite more money changing hands than ever before.
