Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | NPR was comedy central today, all the doom and gloom about rising oceans now that we've backed out. So stupid, so ridiculous that people buy this putrid garbage. A question I heard over and over, that was never answered, how does sending $100 billion a year to poor countries stop GW, even if it's happening. Not a single person would address it. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I like when Donald does dumb stuff. His poll numbers go down (although, how much lower can they go???) and Donald gets upset and does stupid things. At this point, I'm rooting for him to have a complete mental breakdown. I like seeing him suffer. Hopefully Comey's testimony next week can push him a little further down that path.... hehe “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

He didn't deny that climate change is possible. He took us out of a ridiculous agreement that Obama made. There was nothing in it for us. Should we combat climate change? Yep. This just was not the way to do it. I hope all of your wishes come true. Toodles! |

I didn't discuss the merits of what he did in my post at all.... Just that it was a hugely unpopular thing to do. Amongst his tiny base, it will be popular (as seen in this thread). But this is a guy who didn't even win the popular vote, governing solely to his base is not wise. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Russia gets to increase their output by 50%. https://youtu.be/0cZ0NFRgyFI Rand Paul destroy's Tapper and shows him to be the anti-American he is. Big thumbs up to Donald on this one. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

India also gets to increase coal by 50%, while we cut it 80%. It's an insane deal that has nothing to do with climate change. The whole thing is STOOPID anyway, we can control the climate about as much as we can control the orbit of the earth. It's a 100% political issue that people have been sucked into believing is real. Humans are sooo gullible. Smartest thing Trump has done yet, this will even get some Dems over to his side. Screw what the world thinks, they just want our money. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Dalex64 Member since: Mar 8, 2014 Threads: 3 Posts: 3687 | Trump thinks we can control the climate, he said so right in his speech. He said if the Accord went according to plan, that the temperature would be 2/10 of a degree lower than what is currently projected. That is 10% of the projected rise.

Naw, he said that to appease his people who tried to talk him into not doing it. Nobody in their right mind who hasn't drank a ton of Kool Aid thinks we can control the climate. Yeah, we went in 100 short years, from the beginning of the auto and plane industry, to being able to control the climate of the planet. No, we didn't. We can't even predict the weather accurately, how hell can we control the climate. How many years in a row have the hurricane experts got the season prediction wrong. 8? 10? They have no idea what their doing, yet these same type of people can change the climate? It's all political garbage meant to scare us into emptying our pockets. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | http://www.newworldwar.org/weatherwar.htm I don't know about climate, but there are devices to affect weather. Some say that's what the HARRP project in Gakona Alaska was, Including Dr. Nick Begich son of Alaska Congressman. http://www.globalresearch.ca/haarp-secret-weapon-used-for-weather-modification-electromagnetic-warfare/20407 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_Modification_Convention The UN bans weather as a weapon, so somebody thinks it can be manipulated.

The "mental breakdown" has happened on the left, or did you not see some of their reactions yesterday? You would think we dropped a couple nukes. How so many are conned into giving up so much over this climate nonsense is amazing. It is religion for atheists. Anyone with any kind of critical thinking or intellectual curiosity should question GW. The world was supposed to be underwater by now when Bush43 killed Kyoto. Same movie playing again, same suckers falling for the hype. The President is a fink. |
