Let’s say they are right, and if they are I vote we push the publisher, editors and staff of the Guardian off that cliff first.

“Feedbacks in the Earth’s climate will play a role in the Earth’s climate.”

That is dizzying logic. I’m glad I can’t warp my mind around it.

Climate Cliff...because Global Warming, Climate Change and Climate Disruption all failed in their purpose to frighten.

The Real Threats and Blame vs The Leftist Abstract Threats and Blame.

Leftnoids ALWAYS proclaim and sell fear of the ABSTRACT (global warming, Trump will put them in camps, overturn Roe v. Wade, etc.), while NEVER recognizing and often denying the fear of the REAL (terror and crime). If you fear the real threat of an ISIS nut yelling “Allahu Akbar” while shooting down gays or driving a truck through a crowd killing scores, you’re a “hateful bigot”! If you fear an attack by an illegal immigrant felon on his 10th return from deportation (Kate Steinle), you’re a “hater” and “racist”. BUT… If you fear the abstract nonsense that Donald Trump will put you in a concentration camp or we’re going back to lynching, child labor, back alley abortions and segregation… then you’re a Leftie!!!

Perpetual hysteria at disasters long promised but yet to happen (no ice at the poles… rising sea levels drowning cities, etc) is their constant tired worn out old screed... delivered in robotic rehearsed almost zombie like “talking-point” tones of panic by long-faced talking heads! Creative ideas to actually help the middle class (less regulation, free markets, liberty) are dismissed as “unworkable” and to observe real threats of crime and terror have become “racist”... their insanity PeeCee norm.

It has been observed “Progress is NOT possible with ‘progressives’ in charge!!!” A verifiable mental illness indeed.

The geological record where I live shows that it was once a lush rain forest filled with large trees and plants that thrive in a warm, moist environment.

The earth cooled and a giant glacier formed, killing the forest and stripping the land of all vegetation.

When the ice age ended, the glacier retreated and the area has been a desert ever since but it’s still not hot enough to recreate the rain forest that existed before.

These were all major climate events that happened waaaaay before man came along. What was the cause of these climate changes if man is responsible for climate change?

LOL as usual

Goebbels would be extremely jealous of the advances of misinformation the American leftist media has pulled off since the end of the war.

Why are they even saying this?

Prior climate hysterics have already proclaimed us dead already, multiple times. We are all super dead now and dont kmow it, so many points of no return have already been reached.

It just means humans should be more focused on taking action now to avoid triggering the tipping points. We don’t know where they are so let’s be safe and stay far away.

The author of this foolish piece, Jon Abraham, is displaying his manifest ignorance.

If the IPCC is correct in stating that, "The climate system is a coupled non-linear chaotic system, and therefore the long-term prediction of future climate states is not possible", then it is entirely conceivable that by taking the actions that the author prefers it will cause a 'climate catastrophe', while taking no such action will cause no such problems.

One thing that is evident in all of the climate scare stories...no matter how dire the story/..”there is still time to fix it”...wonder what that means?.....the cure is worse than the disease!

“Humans are pushing the Earth closer to a climate cliff”

the climate change propagandists used to claim we had already gone over the “cliff”, but then they realized that if it was too late, then everyone would figure out what was the point of making any change they were advocating if the changes were pointless, so NOW they’ve changed their tune to always way that we’re ALMOST at the “brink” ...

But then again, Gorebull warming was never about science, it was always about control and money.

Yep, with a large dollop of human arrogance and the urge to "play God" mixed in. Admitting that such things are beyond our control does not sit well with the atheists and neo-pagans.

The Earth doesn’t care what climate exists.

Molten lava or frozen solid - it’s all the same.

We’re going into a NORMAL, CYCLICAL cooling period. We should be preparing for that.

We are also still emerging from a “Little Ice Age”.

I just came back from a trip to Alaska. My God it was one lecture about “Global Warming” after another, as to why the glaciers were retreating. They never bothered to think about how the glaciers got so big in the first place.
