Why don’t more people worry about eternal damnation?

Get back to me next August.

The high here today is only expected to get into the 40s.

Because by the time people reach adulthood, most have stopped believing in fairy tales.

Perhaps because vague, evolving, predictions smell like $;:4!

Yes.

It is the watermelon movement. Green on the outside, red on the inside.

sometimes framed more generally as environmental concerns

I struggled to get past this line. Just because I am against the global warming and gorebull warming crowd does not exclude me form environmental concerns. When a person is wrong on their initial contention I find it hard to further see what they want to say.

It may be because we aren’t stupid.

I think getting an extra 40 years of life in exchange for 1 to 2 deg. of warming is a pretty good deal.

It's a really good deal since it ain't happening.

Why in the world does every piece criticizing the warming nuts always include some little BS like "there was but there isn't now" or "we admit it's happening, but aren't convinced we are the cause"?

We shouldn't offer some mealy mouthed backdoor apology for not accepting their fake science, outright lies and violent, fascist intimidation.

These people have declared war on us. Time to take the gloves off.

Why Don’t More People Care About Global Warming?

Because its a joke.
The planet warms and cools as it sees fit. Nothing we can do about it.
Yet liberals would have us spend hundreds of billions of dollars and drastically alter or lifestyle for it. And see no result.

>>Next, those of us old enough to remember driving through Gary, Indiana in the 1960s and early 70s know how much cleaner our air and water are today.

Exactly! Young people who tell us that we are killing the planet don’t know just how disgusting we made it right here in America in the first 70 years of the 20th century. I remember when you could smell the St Johns River from 30 miles away (and it didn’t smell good). Today, I live a mile away and all I smell is pleasant smells from a healthy river. The EPA did its job and did it well. But, now its a bureaucracy that has not purpose, so it seeks to invent new crises—not to solve, but just to spend money on.

1) Most people see AGW/ACC for the scam it is.

2) Most people know that “marching for” something like that is a waste of time.

> “There is considerable evidence that the People’s Climate March wasn’t as much about climate as it was an excuse for those who want a different political system. If you really believe that capitalism is destroying the Earth and hurting people — or even if you don’t really believe it — then environmentalism becomes a really good excuse to dump capitalism.”

Money Quote.

Yet, there were approximately 125,000 people who turned out for the People’s Climate March in New York City

125,000 people?

Well, according to most libtard sites it was anywhere from 300,000 to 500,000 morons...

Humm, whom to believe...?

I would guess 125,000 was being generous...

We humans have to be quite the arrogant group to believe that we have a more significant effect upon the environment that a volcanic eruption or Solar rays. And to think that the US will take the brunt of the economic downturn of saving the world as other countries use our altruistic weakness to rob us of our level of comfort and safety. Global warming is a joke and a scam. I like the name, watermelon; green on the outside and commie red on the inside.

“Why Don’t More People Care About Global Warming?”

Because it isn’t? Because they are cold? Because they like civilization, prosperity and life.

“Next, those of us old enough to remember driving through Gary, Indiana in the 1960s and early 70s know how much cleaner our air and water are today. Smaller gains in “cleanliness” come at greater and greater cost now (although the EPA, which wants everything to be infinitely clean, does not seem to care about that). “

You aren’t kidding. I knew people who lived or worked there, and the paint would come off of cars in about three years, and rust through in five. People who lived there had to paint their homes every three years or so, or else. And where I lived in suburban Chicago, the entire southeast sky was a smoky red glow at night, 365 days a year, until the mid-70’s.

It pisses me off that the left paints republicans / conservatives / capitalists as uncaring about the future; I posit that they actually think about it MORE (and that’s how they became wealthy); many conservatives have children too, and it seems to me that it’s always the fat cat capitalists who leave lasting legacies for others, going all the way back to Carnegie and Rockefeller.

We have been well PAST diminishing returns on the environment since the mid-80’s; hence, my rationale to reduce the size and scope of the EPA to mid-80’s levels.
