Gosh, appears it's time to drag out the ole 'We're All Gonna Die Without Global Central Planning & Increased Taxation' fake-science climate hysteria, again.

Here's what a correctly maintained temperature station looks like (notice temps declining, on chart at right):

And, here is a poorly-maintained temperatures-gathering station, notice it is situated next to multiple heat sources - voila!, 'Global Warming' (this faulty-data gathering problem is *COMMON* for a MAJORITY of the weather stations used across the US!):

I believe the essence of conservatism is believing in the total depravity of all mankind, Jew and gentile, denier and dupe, and lying pompous pretentious knowitall windbags. So if he thinks we’re bad, he’s halfway there.

“The left loves science. Except when it comes to abortion. And gender.”

Yep. They politicize everything.

No one is denying that climate changes. It has over and over and over again since the beginning of the Earth. We all learn about it when studying glaciation, the formation of the Great Lakes and Finger Lakes etc. during grade school. Climate may be changing now, but it is difficult to sort out what are temporary trends or changes in weather vs true climate change. It's even harder to pin any changes in climate on human activities - particularly when using computer modeling of processes we don't fully understand.

The left’s stance on this is based on ideology and partisanship, not science.

And krugman will believe in the tooth fairy. These people show how intelligence lacking they are and also how gullible they are. Thwy come across as weak, believing these stories made up to further their foolish ideas.

I read the first sentence. Then I saw who wrote it. I could not go on after that.

Still; waiting for just one of the many doomsday predictions by them over the last 20 years or so....they keep changing their stories and I haven’t seen even one of their predictions come true. Maybe they haven’t cleaned their crystal balls and the reply is hazy...so they keep trying again.....

Like in France. Paul Krugman doesn’t have THAT depravity in mind.

Where flyover country folks get wiped out do Macron can secure his re-election.

Which has nothing to do with climate change.

The left continues to pin its hopes on the climate change hoax as the vehicle to bring down capitalism. When the majority is prosperous and well fed, it’s about their only chance.

I think the answer to all of your questions is... none of the Global Change Alarmists have ever thought about those aspects, they just want more money.

".... the sheer depravity involved in being a denialist at this point...."

Boy, the irony must have gone right over Krugman's head.

Krugman calling someone who doesn't believe in human-caused climate change, depraved, is like his arse telling his brain, "I do my thinking down here, not up there."

Krugman is not the model for intelligent thinking.

Apparently, Paul Krugman thinks Global Warming is the reason the Border Patrol agent set off an explosive target at his baby shower/gender reveal party.

I’m waiting to find out how Global Warming is responsible for the lack of sunspots which will lead to an ice age.

Funny how this climate change can cause forest fires and blizzards simultaneously.

Whether it's climate change, the JFK assassination, the deep state illegally surveilling the Trump campaign...; the gubermint can lie to the little people.

The most important part of getting the lies accepted is getting the control of the presstitutes so that 24/7, the propagandists spread the lies no matter how ridiculous the story becomes.

In the climate change case, the Deep State's theme is CO2 levels almost totally control the Earth's temperature variations. This video shows there is a correlation between solar activity and Earth's climate which destroys the global warming crowd's arguments.

YOUTUBE Professor Valentina Zharkova: The Solar Magnet Field and the Terrestrial Climate

This graph shows that with RAW TEMPERATURE numbers there is NO correlation with rising CO2 levels because the temperatures have varied but the highest temperatures were in the 1930's, NOT the last decades as the global warming crowd have tried to show. The only increasing tempertures on the NOAA graph are the ADJUSTED TEMPERTURES.

The fraudsters correct tempertures so that they show increases that correspond with the rising CO2 levels. The raw temperatures do NOT.

What this NOAA graph really shows is that there is NO significant effect on tempertures with changes in CO2 concentrations!
