Ooooh, I hadn't seen the ones on global warming yet. Noice.

basically what you need to understand about that is even in just the last 2000 years there are two examples, the roman climate optimum and the medieval warm period, where the global tempature rose faster to a higher point than it is right now and I don't think they had a lot of cars or factories. Also there's no proven link between human activity and rising temperatures, there's a lot of speculation but the science is very much still out, and while everyone (97% of scientists not that consensus means anything in science) agrees that the climate is changing, what's causing it is a different matter. It's also important to remember that 10 years ago Al Gore and a bunch of dumb ass climate scientists were saying the polar ice caps would be gone by now and large parts of the US would be underwater and what do you know he's full of shit.

also based on recent studies I've seen on solar activity over the next two years or so the average global temperature is propabaly going to go down about half a degree, watch them try to explain that to fit into their narrative. sorry if that was a little rambly I'm pretty drunk

This whole climate change thing is a complete scam, and the way people get aggressive when you say--"the earth's climate has been changing for billions of years" is astounding. Our sun has and will have more to do with temp change on Earth than anything "on earth".

Do I think we use too much packaging? Yes. Do I think that polluting our water is a problem? Yes. Do I think it being 70 in February for one day is a sign the Earth is so damaged from less than 100 years of the industrial revolution that we're all gonna die guise? NO.

I'm old enough to remember when climate change was called global warming and then we had a bunch of cold summers, etc...and now, climate change. When the sun has a large fart, I can always guarantee that it will get warmer outside in the next couple of days. It's the sun and always has been.

dude I'm really fucking hungover but I got the pollution shit covered if someone doesn't beat me too it, I'm in a compsci program right now and next I'm going into mechanical engineering I'll build robot dinosaurs that swim and walk around to munch up all the plastic and recycle it

Before it was called global warming, the big stink was about the coming ice age due to pollution. I remember people being genuinely concerned about glaciers making Canada and the northern USA uninhabitable, and then a decade later they're worried about no ice caps, and here we are now getting to listen to them screech about both.

I was propagandized with global cooling real early on in school. Our curriculum must have been outdated, because I'm not quite that old.

"Climate change" - the holy grail of crony leftism.
