Huh

NASA report says global warming is definitely caused by human related industrial carbon emissions .
Or will you therefore call NASA fake too ? The fad of excuses - call anything you don’t want to accept “ fake “

I'll believe that global warming, excuse me, climate change is real when the people who keep telling me it's real begin to act like it's real.

Bgreen - I haven’t had time to read a lot of his stuff, but Bjorn Lomborg is an environmentalist with some different (from the conventional wisdom) conclusions about what to do about climate change. I’m not addressing the man made issue, but positing some different analysis of the data and a different view of remedies. He seems to have background/education that gives him a more holistic approach.

Our military now considers global warming a threat to our national security.
Is that enough ?

Your response is not responsive. I didn’t challenge the issue of climate change or of the statements that it’s man made. I suggested you might be interested in the analysis of a competent academic who is very on board with the idea of climate change, but his analysis suggests that we are accepting some bad information, leading to hysteria and that the mainstream approach to moving away from fossil fuel is a poor one. The extent to which we’re taxing the poor by encouraging high energy costs is, in my view, obscene.

There will almost certainly be people who die of the cold, not able to afford fuel to heat their residences and people on the low end of the income scale are being generally brutalized. Rampant inflation isn’t helping retired fixed income people either.

If you don’t want to broaden your perspective by reading Prof. Lomborg’s material, by all means don’t, but you might show enough respect to respond in some sensible way. I had hoped we might have a respectful discussion of some of the issues you’re concerned about - is that possible?

Scook Undeniable proof that global warming is now caused by human industry

Carbon dioxide from human activity is increasing more than 250 times faster than it did from natural sources after the last Ice Age.

The Biden administration’s refusal to distinguish between our principal military adversary and climate change is yet more evidence that the military is following ideology instead of winning our wars.
