Climate change is real
The left chooses to use it as a political and social policy tool by inflating claims about the role that humans play in it.
Exactly. Global warming is real. It has happened before. The earth was so warm once that they grew grapes in Britain.
In Roman Britain the weather was warmer than it is now, and this warmer climate allowed extensive vine growing throughout Britain’s Roman period, and for a long time after. By 1086 when the Domesday survey was carried out there were thirty nine vineyards officially recorded in England, although the actual figure may have been much higher. Then temperatures began to drop in the second half of the sixteenth century causing a retreat of vine growing from the north and east of Europe.

Thank you. It's the role humans have in causing it that is the contention. I wish Freepers would not deny climate change just deny that it is settled science that human activity causes the change.
During non industrialized Roman empire times Britain was warm enough to grow grapes that rivaled those of France for wine. Greenland was warm enough to farm/graze livestock. In the Middle Ages we had a weather shift and it was like a mini ice age that we were emerging from in the 20th century. WW2 recorded some of the coldest weather ever and then winters became milder around the globe. That is a sign we are returning to classical Roman empire era weather - a return to normal if you will.
Why can’t we just call it evolution of weather. Without it, we’d have dinosaurs roaming the earth wouldn’t we?
Wow you replied to an 8 year-old post of mine.
Liking her less and less.
It was clearly too early for me to notice!
The woman is deceived, again. I'm trying to look surprised but, ... nope.
Surprised? This is a woman who enjoys hunting. Emphasis on “enjoys”.
If she doesn’t believe it is man-made, why would she believe switching to a low carbon fuel would make a difference?
