Climate Change

[JuanGoodman]

This idiot Trudeau has just given the Philippines $5 billion dollars to fight climate change

Philippines gets $5.3 billion climate finance commitment from Canada

The Philippines and the United Nations Development Program have secured $5.3 billion in climate finance commitment from Canada, Malacañang said yesterday.

I do not think that we can survive another year and a half of this guy.

Trudeau's actions to completely ruin Canada are becoming more frequent and more aggressive

So much for El Nino. Its gonna be very cold in Toronto for the next 3 weeks

Nobody talks about climate change when it's cold.
So the "scientist" say an increase of 1.5 degrees is a tipping point. Well last year they say we hit 1.48 degrees. And we are all still here.

Yes, the world hit 1.48ºC last year, yet another record.
No, its not quite as bad as if the average were sitting at 1.5ºC instead of a peak hitting it.
But its close.

And yes, we are near or at several tipping points.
Almost everything predicted by scientists is happening.

Speaking of tipping...can someone provide me with some investment tips for "green energy" initiatives before the world catches on fire? There's money to be made here before things move on to the next paranoia-driven fad and funding is pulled away from this scheme.

Company's that receive government $$ would probably be the best investment.
Not sure who those are or if they are public companies.

It's −27 in Banff today: https://weather.gc.ca/city/pages/ab-49_metric_e.html

And it's gonna be −11 in Vancouver tomorrow: https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/36-hour-weather-forecast/british-columbia/vancouver

And -39 in Edmonton tomorrow

I know that you know this difference between weather and climate so you are just trolling,

As I said many times before IMO global warming is a giant pile of exaggerated bullshit.
Yes there's a tiny bit of warming but its not gonna melt the poles, nor the Greenland ice sheet.
The only thing thats gonna melt is your wallet from the extra carbon taxes we have to pay

if you admit that there is a tiny bit of warming then you must agree that global warming is occurring.

do you know what the difference in an ice bue is at 0 degrees compared ed to 1 degree. It does not take much in the difference in temperature to have significant impact.

Wanna do a little Q & A??

I ask you a bunch of questions and you answer in your own words to the best of your ability

If I understand correctly, that significant impact of climate change
would be something like humanity will be facing impending climate
catastrophe and eventually human extinction unless global
emission is halved by 2030. Apparently calling the impact 'significant'
an understatement would itself be another understatement.

Seriously do people actually believe in such climate BS?

 

[K Douglas]

Except that damage from climate change disasters, insurance costs and oil subsidies massively dwarf this.
The latest reports say we are very close to hitting 5 tipping points, where the damage gets massively worse and becomes not reversible for centuries.

Earth on verge of five catastrophic climate tipping points, scientists warn

Humanity faces ‘devastating domino effects’ including mass displacement and financial ruin as planet warms

Dude we've always had climate disasters that ain't ever going to change. The only reason damages and insurance costs are higher is because we have more population and more buildings. I mean to think that by plowing trillions of dollars into fighting the climate bogeyman that somehow natural disasters aren't going to occur is sheer lunacy.

I have a question...
Can you demonstrate mathematically how revenue collected in the form of carbon tax improves the climate? Mathematically not theoretically.

 

[K Douglas]

Who cares about John Kerry?

Your ignorance never ceases to amaze Frankie.
He is the climate czar for the most powerful country on the planet.
He's a former 5 term Senator, former Secretary of State, ran for POTUS.
He's wealthy has power and influence over policy.
He reports to the UN Security Council.
Some would call him the face of Climate Change.
I'd say that he's someone people should care about.

It depends upon what you consider a catastrophe. Climate change will lead to lower crop yields, changing livability of many geographies, increased weather events, and many incremental changes which will affect the cost and quality of life for many people. The impacts will increase, even if slowly, over time. It will become like a snowball, rolling down hill, which is an ironic example given the topic.

John Kerry is a big shot in the climate movement.

People should care about Kerry along with a number
of climate change activists/advocates namely, Al Gore,
David Suzuki, Leonardo DiCaprio, Harrison Ford, Arnold
Schwarzenegger, Justin Trudeau, Bill Gates, Richard
Branson, Larry Fink etc. For they all have earned a place
in the pantheon of The Defenders of Climate Hypocrisy.
Climate sheeple may want to look to these hypocrites for
climate leadership. More discerning folks could look to
them to emulate their lifestyle in the midst of a climate crisis.

 

[Phil C. McNasty]

sure

We have been pumping out CO2's since industrial age started.
There were actually 2 industrial ages, but to simplify lets say the industrial age started around 1900.

So for the last 124 years we've been putting tons and tons of CO2 into the atmosphere.
Earth temperature has only heated up about 1.5 celsius.
Last time I checked Greenland, arctic and antarctic temperatures were still well into the -30C, -40C and -50C.
Mainland Greenland perhaps a bit warmer, but not by much.

Since we only have about 45 years of oil left (or approximately 1/3 of the 2/3 CO2 we've already put out into the atmosphere), how could that possibly lower the Greenland, arctic and antarctic temperatures to the point where all 3 melt and flood the entire world??
