climate change.

[dolf]

...that's what the scientists call it, btw.

it's real. it's an indisputable fact and, frankly, anyone who denies climate change is too dim to be allowed out of the house without a responsible adult to mind them.

behold!

of course it's fucking changing, it has always fucking changed.

the ONLY issue up for debate is whether or not human activity is having an impact on the rate or direction of change. that's it. so saying that today it rain/snowed/farted is completely, totally and utterly fucking irrelevant to the debate, so please stop pretending it to be otherwise.

p.s. idiots!

 

[Saint Peter]

Please!

We do not do science on the GB. We do politics.

Much different.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

Nonsense.

Climatology is an industry like astrology and online porn, and about as reputable.

 

[kbate]

But we have graphs! We have charts! (sharts?)

No Warming! Glaciation? Volcano! Socialism!

pay no attention to the Koch Brothers behind the curtain.

jbj, you're probably posting that the ice ages that earth slips into from time to time are a lie created by Obama.

No, he was asking for some skin also.

Move to Alaska.

 

[Que Va]

There are graphs?

Oh.

That's different then.

Maybe share them with Phrodeau? He studies this intently. Perhaps you haven't noticed.

The football is better in Alaska.

*chuckle* It took but three posts for a dolfette thread on science to go off the rails into fluff. Not like anything I might post is going to get it back on the track.

But the graph she posted is what I've been arguing for years here. And it is during those warmer epochs that life on earth exploded in both quantity and diversity. It's the cold that fucks life up for every one and every thing. If you have any doubts, move to Buffalo.

It is not like anything you might post is going to be filled with anything that does not have a right wing political spin.

What does "spin" have to do with meaningful substance? Labeling something "right wing" does refudiate it.

Really? It's the left that wants to turn science into politics. They've been crying "Wolf!" and demanding more money for decades now. My argument is, and always has been, that they're full of shit. It appears that dolfette concurs, along with more than a few others. And it would be damn near impossible for you to argue that dolfette is some sort of right wing ideologue.

But she is highly intelligent and skeptic enough to actually dig into the reality of the situation and shows considerably more common sense than the chicken little's and their political masters that want to impoverish/punish the citizens over a non-event.

It takes money to do research. Nothing new here. NOAA and others has been collecting data on the climate for decades. Decades of right and left funding.

What changed?

 

[Saint Peter]

Alaska has a football team?

I have no idea but I do have ten bucks that says thør will be in to post an answer to your question before the sun sets. Rises. Whatever the fuck the sun is doing up there.

What changed? Are you serious? It all changed when the political class saw what turned out to be bogus science into an excuse to raid the taxpayers wallet and restrict their freedoms, that's what changed.
