How much of the Earth’s resources (electronic, paper, production, manpower, etc.) have been wasted on the green menace hysteria about a looming ice/heat age caused by Western civilization?

Yes, and that’s why it’s super-imperative that your rich Western nation put up the money RIGHT NOW, before the cold takes effect and it’s too late to extort it out of you.

Meanwhile, suffer guilt, you fossil-fuel-burning yankee dog.

It's always about government taking your money to give to someone else (and themselves).

It’s now become obvious that the “Gibsmedat” people
migrated to the Pacific rim at some point in history.

Yup. We’ve had the least active storm season in recorded history, and it’s all our fault... just like it would have been if it were the most active, or the least average, or the most boring, or...

Stop quibbling, write the check!!

...and our “leaders” are stupid enough to fall for it.

I’d have some ocean front property on the Pacific if that dang Cauliphonya would just hurry up and fall into the ocean. LOL! Of course, if the ObamaCare “success story” falls in the Pacific, ObamaCare will go with it. I guess I’m torn...

Japan has been dumping hundreds of tons of radioactive waste into the Pacific for about 2.5 years now and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. I think they should accept responsibility $$ for their actions, work on stopping the continuous flushing of radioactive waste into the Pacific and worry a little less about climate change.
