| Climate change is a hoax and we should just keep burning fossil fuels on 07:33 - Jan 14 with 948 views | NthQldITFC | I don't find that there are anywhere near as many complete and utter f****** morons making brain dead statements like that any more. Unfortunately I don't think that's down to education or enlightenment, it's more that the human race seems to have by and large stuck its fingers in its ears and buried its head in the sand, in spite of being presented with overwhelming, clear, irrefutable evidence of how our stupid, selfish, obsessive-fat-consumer lifestyles are killing our children's futures. Somehow, the end game will come as a complete shock to many people, while they are munching another burger or flying off for another jolly - "Oh why didn't somebody do something? Where's Bruce Willis when you need him?" |  |

That might well be the case, but that's no excuse for gratuitously making the situation worse in the meantime. Makes the task that much harder. Mind you, much of the fossil fuel drive is less about denying climate change on any rational grounds than profits, jobs* and national security**. * Trying to resurrect old industries like coal mining to curry votes in regions economically devastated by their decline. ** From US perceived energy self-sufficiency to the entire basis for Gulf/Arabian economies. |  |

Yeah, we are proper effed, aren't we? Or at least our children and grandchildren are. And lots of species all over the planet. We have to decarbonise the following (which very roughly emit similar amounts of greenhouse gas): Transport Heating/Cooling/Industry Agriculture Construction We have only got technical solutions for some parts of the first two, and they are pretty unpopular in some parts of society because of woke or something. Game over I'm afraid |  | |  |
| Climate change is a hoax and we should just keep burning fossil fuels on 08:58 - Jan 14 with 714 views | GlasgowBlue | It’s so obvious that these “freak “ weather events are becoming the norm. World governments hide their heads in the sand but we, as human beings, can do our own small part. I’ve been£n meat free for nearly three years. Not eating meat can greatly help fight climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, land/water use, and deforestation. And it’s very easy fur each and everyone of us to do. |  |

Don't talk such rubbish. This is a forum with different views. We don't all agree. I may report you for being a knob. And why is anything that does not conform to your views rubbish, but what you believe is gospel. [Post edited 14 Jan 13:03]

Bloody awful to see people posting crap like this. Have a look at this: https://www.sourcewatch.org/in It might help you realise the error of your ways. |  |

It's not 'views' mate, it's megatonnes of proper, peer-reviewed, independent science based on data gathered over decades by thousands upon thousands of proper scientists, weighed against a fossil fuel lobby group, for fks sake. People like you need to be told how serious this is, what the consequences are for nature and food and water supplies and resource warfare and your descendents' futures, if you're posting rubbish like this. |  |

Hi there Mr Rimsy, I am a wealthy African prince with a large amount of cash I need to move out of the country. If you could advance me £10,000 to cover some short term issues and bribes I will deposit £100,000 into your bank account once I receive your bank account details |  | |  |

This page is nonsense and offers zero explanation explaining the rate of change. It just says "it changed before" and so it can't be us when we can explain the changes that have happened over long periods before whereas the only current driver is us pumping CO2 into the atmosphere. Notice how that graph doesn't have an end date? That's because it ends in 1855. I know this because this graph has been doing the rounds for well over a decade at this point. https://www.carbonbrief.org/fa Also worth pointing out that global warming is but a single part of the damage done to overall climate e.g. ocean acidification. The last time there was this much CO2 in the atmosphere was 14 million years ago. [Post edited 14 Jan 13:21]

there's scientific facts and there's lobbyist nonsense. it's like Alexander usyk being branded a good boxer by the evidence of many fights and the opinion of many experts. the co2coalition is more analogous to a toddler saying his grandad could beat him up. don't be so gullible, it's important! |  |

Your problem here is that the CO2 coalition is a bunch of fraudsters. It would take you 10 minutes research to find that out. Opinions are OK but when the evidence points to them being totally unreliable it's not OK to shrug and go " like it's just your opinion Man" |  | |  |

typical snowflake behaviour from the fossil fuel apologists, to say their opinion should count equally against truth! |  |
