Cross-Examining the Climate Change Cultists

It's the inverse of regulation. After every "accident," Congress rushes to write new regulations to saddle industry with as if the losses already incurred don't cause industry to learn, they only hamper it going forward and not a singe regulation written prevents the next accident. Every bit of money that Congress throws at a desired outcome is money that's taken away from those who will make intelligent bets on what will actually work, thusly cutting back that which will actually work.

The way that congress makes those monies available coupled with the people that are charged with determining who gets that funding make certain that upwards of 90% of that funding might as well have been flushed down the toilet.

Wait for it...

I hear exceptions to the rule echoing in the ether just waiting to be reproduced.

I'm still a bit miffed that they took away the poll option...

Re-using the remains of past lives to support new life and progress sounds responsible to me.

Burning is a closed infinite energy loop.

Let us know when you're tired of your Utopian flights of fancy and want to get back to reality dealing with the laws of Physics.

If society were to collapse tomorrow the first thing the remaining humans would be doing would be to start rubbing two sticks together to start a fire.

 

[QueequegsHead]

Like the end of the novel, Player Piano?, where they destroy everything and then at the end are rebuilding it...

Geez, my mind is coming up blank. I'd blame zen, but the 70s and 80s are probably more responsible.

Last year, for example, the FDA celebrated the ten-year anniversary of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), which the agency and many of the law's supporters have touted as the most extensive, impactful, and important overhaul of the FDA's food-safety authority in more than 75 years. It's not. As I noted in a column marking FSMA's first (and hopefully last) decade, CDC estimates of the number of annual cases of foodborne illness in America have remained unchanged in the wake of FSMA's passage and implementation.

"Lest you think those CDC estimates merely haven't been updated in some time," I wrote, "the agency reported [in 2021] that '[t]he incidence of most infections transmitted commonly through food has not declined for many years.'" That means a decade on that the big, signature FDA approach to preventing foodborne illness before it happens has been costly but has not made people or food safer. Why not? That's because FSMA's shortcomings are baked into the law.

Huh? We burn dead dinosaurs and other life forms now for energy.

Someday someone will use your energy.

Probably not. I'm going to be cremated. My last defiant middle finger to the "climate change" worshipers.

 

[QueequegsHead]

They, like Satan, are the ones supplying the heat.

 

[Chobham]

A cremation requires approx. 28 gal of fuel and releases 540 lbs of CO2 into the atmosphere. Like I said, my last defiant middle finger.

I think that's fair considering life gave you the perpetual middle finger. Plus, with all the alcohol that's pickled you, you'll burn in a crazy hot flame.

Ok, boomer.

Ishtard figures he hasn't fuck up his grandchildren enough with his inbred bloodline.

Besides the exploitation of climate change for government money, many people are desperate to believe in climate change apocalypse because they don't want to face ordinary lives of poverty, with walking to work, manual labor, hand washing their clothes, etc.

I LOL’ed hard. Most people can’t afford to walk to work.
Do you ever know what you’re talking about?

No, not ever. He vomits onto his keyboard and hopes for the best.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

luk, my master and owner and that shirtless one aren’t very good at this.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

Sorry things are tough for you and luk right now.

Keep loving each other!

 

[Rightguide]

Yes, in the long term. In the short term, no one is trying to take away your tractor or its fuel.

No, they're making the fuel she needs to operate it cost more than she can afford.

Because of inflation, climate change is postponed this year. We can't do hard things when it's hard.

 

[John_von_Neumann]

Ishtard figures he hasn't fuck up his grandchildren enough with his inbred bloodline.

Shitting over future generations is all that fuckhead is good for, these days. At least he admits it.

[YDB95]

No, they're making the fuel she needs to operate it cost more than she can afford.

If by "they" you mean the oil and gas industry, you're all too right. For once.

The transition to "green energy" (whatever the hell that is) is going to be evolutionary. Cutting the current sources of energy BEFORE economically viable replacements are in place is beyond foolhardy, it's criminal.

Then it's a good thing no one is doing that, isn't it?

“They” are everyone who opposed taxing carbon twenty years ago, since it would have raised the pump price and lowered demand, so the price wouldn’t have shot up so high this year.

If you want to watch the pinkos fret, simply state the indisputable truth that what they call “climate change” is a massive hoax. Their fallback is inevitably that “science” – which they purport to love except when it demonstrates that there are only men and women and that you can’t change the sex you are born as – has decreed that because we peons insist on not living in caves like primitive tribesmen (okay, non-binary tribespeople) the Earth is going to cook. And, of course, the only solution is to do a whole bunch of things that leftists always wanted to do anyway. There’s no time to think, no time to reflect, and certainly no time to argue. Why, who are you to question the scientists?


Well, I’m a lawyer. I question scientists for a living.

Now, I have no scientific training to speak of. I majored in communications and political science, so the only science I studied at UC San Diego had to do with the physics of foaming when I poured Coors into a glass, as well as the mechanics of human reproduction. Don’t expect me to discourse deeply on the heat retention coefficient of CO2 – I don’t even know if that is a thing, but it sure sounds sciency.

Instead, I hire scientists in most every case I try. Sometimes I hire several in different disciplines. The other side does too, and here’s the weird thing – at trial, the other side’s scientists always, always, disagree with my scientists.

Weird, huh? Because I was told that in the context of climate change the science is settled, that there is only one possible answer and that anything else is at least quackery and possibly felony denial.

Environmentalists are dumb automatons. They sleepwalk from one séance to another. Don't forget to click on the cartoons for some truth.

Screaming “I’m a complete and total fool” on a public forum is a bad optic. Just sayin
