Climate Change -- conspiracy theory or is it time we all drive a Prius?

This is the only explanation I've heard.
Everybody just ignores the question.

Wait for a man-up from the Trump haters and you may be waiting a looooong time.

This coming from the guy who said ISIS never blows up people in predominately Muslim areas and didn't have the balls to admit he was dead wrong. LOL

What we decide to do with our coal mining, and what they decide to do with their coal mining, are complete independent things.

They still are.

There was nothing in the agreement which said they get to do this and we do not - those decisions were independently and freely elected. One does not and did not depend on the other.

I don't know what it is with some people.

Nobody in EU is upset about any of
that. They hate that Trump pulled
the plug on the MONEY, that's what
this is all about. That's all this was
ever about, sucking us dry for no
apparent reason.

The whole GW thing is about money. Just a tool to take money from one group and give it to another. Tax this, require that. All for fake science. It shows how easily people can be suckered into following a crazy cause.

Explain to a believer that if we took every car off the road then CO2 would fall by 1% only. They simply cannot believe it, though it is a true number.

Follow the money, follow the power. Don't follow the believers who fly to GW rallies in private jets with idling SUVs waiting so the inside is cool for them when they get in.

Germany has pledged about 30% more per capita than the US. They have paid half of it so far. The US has paid a third of our pledge.

On our government's effort in fighting global warming:
53% think the government isn't doing enough
20% think the right level of action is being taken
21% think the government is doing too much.

The big list of failed climate predictions

My personal favorites:

Quote:

Michael Oppenheimer, 1990, The Environmental Defense Fund: “By 1995, the greenhouse effect would be desolating the heartlands of North America and Eurasia with horrific drought, causing crop failures and food riots…”(By 1996) The Platte River of Nebraska would be dry, while a continent-wide black blizzard of prairie topsoil will stop traffic on interstates, strip paint from houses and shut down computers…The Mexican police will round up illegal American migrants surging into Mexico seeking work as field hands.”

Quote:

“Earth Day” 1970 Kenneth Watt, ecologist: “The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”

Fool someone once, shame on the person fooling them.
Fool someone hundreds of times, call the person being fooled a believer in global warming.
