winsor 236 #51 December 16, 2015 Stumpy******>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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

turtlespeed 226 #57 December 16, 2015 The111***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!I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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.

billvon 3,116 #74 December 18, 2015 QuoteThe 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
