When algore sells his Malibu beachfront mansion I'll start taking "climate change" seriously.

But not a second before.

[Dubh_Ghlase]

Got to pull a Thanos and kill off half the population of everything so the other half can live!

You first...!

[avenir]

I cringe every time I scroll down and see that creep’s picture.

[AppyPappy]

They sound exactly like the old Doomsday prophets. I’m surprised they haven’t set a drop dead date and told everyone to meet on a hill. Give them all your money first because it will just burn up.

Don’t laugh!

Everything will die!

Of course everything will die, regardless of warming or cooling, but this time it’s serious!!!

[PTBAA]

We’re already in a period of “Great Lying”.

[chris37]

Good.

May Canines inherit the earth.

[bgill]

Another dying off? Humans didn’t learn from the last time they polluted the earth, right?

250 million years ago in a 6000 year old universe!

[RitchieAprile]

yes but those are Bible years ;-)

[DuncanWaring]

And that’s the truth!

[Fightin Whitey]

New research shows the way the planet is warming up has staggering similarities to the "Great Dying".

Good. The lazy, the dishonest and the dependent will go first.

Its coming from inside the earth
Volcanos and fissures venting methane
Some parts of the Arctic ocean look like a bubbling hot tub
Not the atmosphere

[silverleaf]

They are implying human activity can heat the oceans by 20 degrees
Last time it was volcanoes

[silverleaf]

History does show a cycle of catastrophic and sudden change ( from whatever cause) occurring about every 600,000 years, and we are overdue

[353FMG]

The entire 20th century can be considered “the great dying”.

Meanwhile, in the real solar system, the sun is the 500 gazillion ton gorilla in the room. And if it changes its output - due to sunspots, or the lack thereof - people have zero influence over it.

What’s even newer than mankind, is thermometers. Meaning, geologically speaking there’s a lot we don’t know. We try to use proxies, but . . .

[PeteePie]

The only “Great Dying” is that which is going to occur by the muzzies et al, Rooskies, and anyone else who comes against Israel in these last days.

"We get to decide how much warming to allow. But it's clear that if you don't check it then marine ecosystems are in trouble."

We get to decide how many humans will be marched in the furnace. No, wait that would cause more carbon emissions. We get to decide how many humans will be marched to the edge of trenches and snuffed out.
