Why I laugh at Eco-warriors

******>What about if does NOTHING to solve the problem? Works for guns and carbon

Most of the world disagrees with you.



Argumentum ad Populum.

Most of the world is demonstrably wrong about just about everything.

You are quite right, however in this case the OP is demonstrably wrong about just about everything.

When you have two people making exclusive points, a maximum of one of them may be right.

However, just because one is wrong does not make the other right. All too often, both parties are completely wrong.

Disproving the Caloric theory does not substantiate the Phlogiston theory.

You are wrong about that too. You weren't "just quoting John Kerry", you made your own statement with the title.

***Because a 35% reduction in the rate of CO2 output will not keep CO2 concentration below the planet destroying level of 400ppm. Pissing into the wind would be an apt analogy.



It would keep it below that level for a longer amount of time. The planet will die eventually regardless, should we not try to keep it alive as long as possible? If somebody told you that you could extend your life by 20 years, would you say it would be "pissing into the wind" since you'll die eventually anyway? A more apt analogy (for NOT trying to improve the planet, or your own life, because it/you will still die one day anyway) would be "giving up."

Furthermore, the 35% figure would probably increase as developing nations catch up. That is, if we start by setting the right example.

Really?

You actually believe that mankind has the ability to "kill" a planet?

Hoh-lee-fuq!

Why I laugh at deniers. Good example above.



You are laughing at a mirror...

You were wrong stating that you were "just quoting John Kerry". You were attempting to make a point by combining commentary in the title with the quote in the body of the text.

Hence, you weren't just quoting.

No they don't wonder any such thing. That's 'cause nearly everyone does believe 'em. 'Cept for a few backwards dead enders and losers.

" 'Cept for a few backwards dead enders and losers."

If I used language like that, PC Principle would give me a time out.



If it's good enough for the VP of the USA, it's good enough for us here.

In the world of statistics checking the system used to gather important data one uses what is called an MSA
Measurement System Analysis

We see a failure here and emotional PA from you

That is a mighty low bar.

There have been some less that stellar VPs over the years.

The majority of weather stations used by NOAA to detect climate change temperature signal have been compromised by encroachment of artificial surfaces like concrete, asphalt, and heat sources like air conditioner exhausts,” Anthony Watts, a seasoned meteorologist and lead author of the study, said in a statement Thursday.


Looks like Watts is trying with his already-debunked denials again. Well, I imagine some people will be gullible enough to believe him.

Actually. Watts speaks to a newly released study
