You pretending that climate change isn't real isn't going to make it go away though. The climate has always changed, what are you going to do to stop it?

Dont have to be einstein to realize pumping millions if tons of co2 into the atmosphere, while cutting down billions of trees, is going to have an impact.

Sometimes that is because they are wealthy and do not want to change their lifestyle, sometimes they just have a negative view of science in general.

Or they may just be questioning not there's an agenda behind the propaganda. Because it is propaganda, whether you believe in man made climate change or not. It may be necessary propaganda but people are free to question it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking of trees, "Termite gas production has become particularly high, the researchers say, because widespread clearing of land has offered them abundant food in the debris of felled forests. By digesting this debris, they are adding not only carbon dioxide but also methane to the atmosphere. Other researchers have found that methane in the atmosphere is increasing 2 percent a year." https://www.nytimes.com/1982/10/31/us/termite-gas-exceeds-smokestack-pollution.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinfoilhat Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 (edited) As brexit shows (sorry to mention the “b” word) we’ll definately decide to do something about climate change and the destruction of the natural world when it’s too late to do so, and we won’t even be able to agree then.

I watched a group of schoolgirls being interviewed on the Channel 4 news earlier and was very impressed with their passion and dedication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
