So much for everything the US does for the rest of the developing world. You’re welcome.

All those with an even number of letters in their last name will hold their breath on Tuesdays.

Go to the Sun at night and pull the plug or at least throw a tarp over part of it.

Humans aren’t going to fix anything. Humans can only adapt to what Mother Nature throws at us. Anthropogenic climate change is one of the greatest hoaxes perpetuated on mankind.

The developing world deserves reparations from wealthier nations as compensation for the harmful climate change effects that are mostly our fault.

At least he got straight to the point. Climate change is nothing more than a scam to bring about a massive transfer of wealth from rich nations to poor ones. This is why it is so important that we be absolutely terrified over it.

Thomas is offering to pay for everything to fix the world...just not with his own money of course. He is no different than a con (wo)man.

FUTK

Any jackass that spews reparations BS within arm's reach of me gets b-slapped. Any one of them tries to lay blame at the feet of Western civilization, the greatest elevation to the human condition in the history of the whole human race, gets a full-out punch to the side of their stupid head.

Getting sick of this sh!t.

I guess we could start by no longer exporting food, medicines, and technology to nations that can’t make their own. That should reduce the population by a couple billion in a generation. When these poor nations go to war, let them annihilate one another.

Meanwhile the First World nations (by the end of the generation, known as the Only Nations) could build plenty of nuclear power plants.

There. Global warming fixed in one generation. If its that big of a deal, then let’s use Darwinism (a popular theory among the Progressives, right??) to ensure that the strong survive.

Rich countries should also invest in geoengineering projects to provide solutions for those on the front lines of climate change: those who cannot afford to pay for more adaptive and resilient infrastructure or who happen to be geographically unfortunate.

Geoengineering. On the planet we're living on. Considering how exceptionally well humans are at predicting the adverse consequences of their best intentions, the entire idea gives me the willies.

Maybe do some geoengineering on the moon first so the race doesn't go extinct when your project goes FUBAR.

If you’re going to fix climate change you’re going to have to be God.

Let’s make certain that every strata of society shares in the pain of going back to the Middle Ages to ban carbon fuels.No one in cities should have access to automobiles. Only walking or bicycles should be used for transportation. Airplanes and trucks should only be used for the military. Every family should grow its own food so that trucks would not be used to transport food long distances. “Shared Misery” should be the motto of the environmentalists.

Easy solution:

Everyone who believes CO2 is a dangerous pollutant stops exhaling it.

Problem solved overnight.

Yes by golly, If We’re going to drop man’s CO2 production of CO2 from 0.00136% of the atmosphere to 0.00135% we’re ‘going to have to get very creative’ ie: EVERYONE will have to become poor and live like cavemen because 0.00136% of the atmosphere is sooooo very dangerous to the environment”

Cripes!
