Yes or No: Do you believe in man made “climate change “?

I neither believe or disbelieve. Given our short time on this planet in comparison to how long the orb has actually existed, there is simply not enough data to make a compelling case for or against the premise. Any true "scientist" must concede this point before proceeding any further with the discussion. This does not mean human beings are not causing climate change, but it does mean we don't definitively know at this point.

The "Orb" is really, REALLY old. Therefore it is impossible to understand the physics behind the heat trapping properties of CO2.

Nice

It's absolutely bananas that Americans are still this stupid.

Yet we run the world. And have lead the world in science, business and technology for the past 100 years or so.

You might want to rethink your level.

Ummm . . . the folks who lead the world in science have made it abundantly clear that anthropomorphic climate change is real and very, very serious.

So, are you saying that they are idiots? Conspiracists?

The greenhouse gas effect is not even questioned. It causes a planet like Venus to be warmer than Mercury even though Mercury is closer to the sun.

So, the humans living on Venus are causing climate change there too?

Cute. Undeniably stupid, of course. But arguably cute.

Good job!

I believe something else will be the end of us. I believe we will not be able to take over nature and destroy her.

Ah yes, the old "science is settled so you're not allowed to question it unless you're stupid" debate tactic. It works every time: 1) Malthusian economics (we're all going to starve by 1850 because of population growth); 2) Global cooling in the 1970s (see Newsweek and Time magazines for that chuckle); 3) The ozone hole scare of the 1980s (it's closing by the way); but best of all; 4) Global Warming (they had to find a new name when the old forecasts were used as bird cage liners).

But Global warming is a keeper. They just keep announcing doomsday is xxx years away and when the date passes they have new, more dire and indisputable "settled science".

No matter how many scientists question the theory, the answer is "Nobody questions it!"

Seriously? The ozone hole issue is a counter example--that's a case where the science and the scare were correct and the international community came together to solve the problem. Also, listing global warming here is circular reasoning.

That leaves 2 examples. You do understand that science is about proposing and rejecting theories that don't fit the evidence right? The global cooling theory were both proposed and rejected pretty soon after.

Anyone who doesn't believe in anthropogentic climate change is an idiot.

they have been saying this doomsday scenario for every now. but now I am supposed to believe this time they are serious?

there's money involved, giving a incentive to scientist to make it look worse than it is to get more funding. there is the global elite who trying to use this global warming bs as a excuse to get more control. etc. what is really going on? I don't know. but it's not the mainstream narrative they are trying to get the masses to believe. Is there a conspiracy? All that means is there are two or more people plotting to commit a crime. Is that happening? I don't know.

Certainly not.

There is ALWAYS Climate Change. Always has been, always will be. How much do humans influence it in the last 100 years vs the slight warming trend we were already on is the question. I personally believe very little influence and the right move is to further technologies so that we can scrub harmful particles, etc... from the atmosphere if we need to.

Americans are smart, I'm happy we lead the developed world in climate change denial because it is our financial pockets that the rest of the world is looking to pick in this global scheme. Liberal elite globalists are scared to death to confront Asia and the insane pollution they generate there but they have no fear in attacking America on a daily basis. Why is that???

Simple question that I've NEVER heard a radical Lib answer, what era's weather is ideal for the planet? 1900? 1950? 2000? 20,000 BC??? If you need to reverse climate change, you need a target time period that you've deemed ideal so that you know what your goal is. Radical Libs don't have a goal, they just want to steal freedoms from the common man and steal our wealth.

Man oh man, I thought that there was some hope for the people on this site; I was sorely and sadly mistaken.

I hope climate change deniers who live in coastal areas have lots of children who can enjoy their underwater roads and housing developments. You people should open a book, get a college education, or preferably, jump out of an airplane.

You DO realize that the Obamas just purchased an estate on Martha's Vineyard. Would they throw away millions if they thought it would be under water soon? Even they know it's a hoax!

Climate change is melting the snowflakes.

Nice strawman. Blame the Obamas.

You DO realize that most of Martha's Vinyard is built on a bluffs that are 20-30 ft above sea level almost right away and most of the inland parts are 50 feet or more. And in the Obama's lifetime sea level might rise a foot or two.

A dumb partisan hack is no way to go through life, son. Get out of your mom's basement and finish that degree.

Wow, Americans really are well and truly brainwashed. I pray for you all.

I'm talking about actual science, engineering and technology with practical applications, not BS environmental "theory" where you start with a conclusion and work backwards by "adjusting" theoretical data.

I'm talking about people who do things and create things and build things. Maybe you don't know about this since it doesn't happen in your country?

Of course he realizes that. That's why he does not give a sh!t about Global Warming and neither should you. Now get a life.
