    No one in their right minds would be opposed to that. The problem is those who demonize the use of fossil fuels when, in fact, those are our only viable energy sources right now. We are going to burn them until they are gone and you need to accept that fact. The planet will be fine.

    You have been opposed to green energy and you know it.

    No one is "demonizing" the use of fossil fuels, just trying to make the process cleaner. Why you favor pollution is beyond me.

    You need to accept the fact that humans can change the game. We don't have to suffer any predetermined fate. We don't have to bury our heads in the sand.

    The planet will be fine, but the species living on it will not. Wise up.

    again, this is the lie. if you gave a damn about humankind you would be aware that the greatest problem for humans that are not rich white americans like us is lack of economic progress.

    Back to your old games of bait and switch. The third world problems has always existed and doesn't have squat to do with AGW. You just can't argue global warming so you change the subject to one that is meaningless.

    How lame can you get?

    1. People who don't know the difference between weather and climate have completely missed the boat.

    2. Global warming is GLOBAL!! You can't cherrypick one set of weather conditions in one year at one location and say that it means anything about AGW. You fail climate research 101.

    I am opposed to the government funneling tax dollars into green industries (whose owners just happened to donate to the Obama campaign) rather than letting private investors fund it.

    I don't favor pollution. I oppose using the threat of catastrophe to subsidize green energy at the expense of hard working people in the O&G industry.


    Humans can work to clean up their immediate environment. They cannot change the cyclical idiosyncracies of this gazillion year old planet.


    Human were never guaranteed permanent squatters rights.

    It doesn't really matter what anyone posts when debating you cause you're hard-headed and never admit when you're wrong anyway.

    You can look at the map from your link and see you are supporting your position with a compilation of what I shared. There's no apparent rhyme nor reason- Southern States were below normal with one with a record cold while only two Northern States record warmest with quite a few "above normal" but "normal". Almost half one way and a little over half the other way. Nothing to be alarmed over.

    dude you are the one that JUST SAID the issue is not about the earth but about the people on it. you either care about them or you dont, bro.

    i am aware that it is just kind of a racist first world white person thing to care about AGW. i do not expect you to admit that.
