    Really? I don't see it...and "some areas" sounds suspiciously like cherry picking. Please show me places where it's obvious and perhaps you'll make a believer out of me...I've been waiting for someone to bust out that "proof" for at least 25 years. Lot's of talk, not a lot of walk.

    Pick a side, eh? I'll wait to see where the dust finally settles.

    I guess the founder of Greenepeace has political leanings.

    What is the timeline you are basing your science on? 56 million years ago the earth was much warmer than it is today. So based on that timeline the earth is cooling.

    Care to comment on the above statement? Do you see the error in your thinking and original post yet?

    Yes the earth was much warmer back then, but the earth also looked a lot different back then too, not a very good comparison. The Eocene was a very different time period in geological history with flora and fauna that had evolved to live in those conditions.

    The difference is that now as we move from the Holocene into the anthropocene, The earth’s climate is changing with a trend towards warming, now yes this happens naturally and has in the past. The thing that is alarming is the fast rate of warming. This along with other environmental issues are leading to what many are calling the “6th mass extinction”.

    There have been many instances in earths history that have been warmer, it’s more that we and many other creatures on this planet aren’t adapted or can’t keep up with the rate of change.

    That’s what’s alarming.

    The founder of Greenpeace isn’t a scientist, he is an activist

    arcticseaicenews This is pretty interesting. I was wondering how the Arctic is doing RIGHT NOW considering it's supposed to be fading away.

    Of course, they make sure not to say "Hey, looking good!". But it is.

    This is where they lose people like me.

    Here's an image for the official NASA "we're all screwed" website...August, right? Says it'll be "ice free" by mid century. Show a picture of it in March instead, you assholes.

    This bait and switch probably works well on ignorant kids or enviro religious zealots.

    Looks like I better get right to the store so I can swap out my cotton sheets for some wicking - drifit type sheets. Nothing worse than a hot and muggy night.

    So using your specific hand picked best case example timeline the earth is warming.... got it.

    And now to try and solidify your case you are tossing in nonspecific "other" issues... got it.

    The point I was trying to make is your "science", which you claim was not political or biased was neither. It just depends on who's data, facts and what data points you include and exclude.

    I will grant you we have some serious environmental issues and that the climate is changing (it's always changing). There are times in history it has changed faster and slower.

    It's great you are environmentally aware, just don't fall for all the chicken little the sky is falling male bovine excrement being spoon fed by the liberal media. What I always tell my kids about topics like this is if you want to know the truth just follow the money.

    Hey Eric, I hope you don't feel like you're being ganged up on, although it kinda looks that way.

    In reality, I think all of us "deniers" here are open to anything that is reasonable and has proof...not just the opinion of some scientist driving a new Lexus, know what I mean?

    FWIW - I don't consider myself a denier, I just have some issues with what is being sold by the liberal media as undeniable science.

    I know for a fact a major portion of what is being sold as news these days is polically motivated to support a radical left agenda, or #FakeNews.

    I fail to see why this issue would be any different, that's just commonsense to me. I believe most people these days understands the news lies to them, why do they believe this issue is any different?

    I think that’s a fair criticism, I should have listed these other factors that are also contributors to the 6th mass extinction (ie; pollution, deforestation, poor agricultural practices, the spread of invasive species and the over harvesting of natural resources)

    I’m also not one to just buy into anything without looking into it myself. I too have many issues with the media these days, they are too caught up in sensationalism, appeasing their advertisers and propping up the elites (on both sides of the aisle). More of an Elite bias as far as I see it.

    Most “real” climate scientists aren’t well off at all. They are often in the field, living out of tents doing research out of Greenland, the arctic or Antarctic.

    But I do believe there are plenty of public figures who are definently profiting off this issue tho and this does us all a disservice, just like there are also plenty of fake experts on the denial side also making a profit as well.

    So I understand the lack of trust in the media. They haven’t been doing their job for years now.

    That's an interesting perspective:


    "The Green New Deal is not a serious policy document because it is not a policy document at all. It’s an aesthetic one. This resolution is not an agenda of solutions. It’s a token of elite tribal identity – and endorsing it, a public act of piety for the chic and woke.
    And on those embarrassing terms, it is already a resounding success.
    As Speaker Pelosi herself put it: “The green dream, or whatever they call it, nobody knows what it is, but they’re for it right?”
    Right."



    Even more interesting that it appears Ms. Pelosi is not behind it by the way she casually disregards it.

    It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.
