Do you honestly believe that the leaders of those other countries are not getting any sort of kickback from all of this? Ever notice how politicians seem to do incredibly well financially once they get into positions of significant power? The Clinton's were flat broke and in debt when Bill left office. How do you suppose they accumulated so much wealth in so little time?

I wonder how many of those $200,000 speeches Bill Clinton is doing these days?
How to get rich.
Predict something scary that won't happen for 100 years , get your buddies to all agree and charge a fortune to prevent it.
It's really that simple folks.

I remember an article in Nat Geo from 1976 where they were still studying the likelihood of a coming ice-age. It stated that Global Mean Average Temperature was then around 56f but that according to the data of the time, the historic GMAT was 71f. So it claimed anyway.

French President Macron trolls Trump. Apparently he is not intimidated by the ferret haired orange kumquat sitting in the Oval Office.

If an intelligent person knew what Macron was all about and what he is working towards, they would be have a lot more respect for Trump than Macron.

But hey, that's just me preferring to be a Canadian citizen as opposed to a comrade of the inhabitants of Earth.

Reconsider what was really said in that time period.



Science advances in 45 plus years. Now virtually all climate scientists agree that the earth is warming because of carbon emissions.

No....97% of the scientists said a decade ago that the earth was in a "warming period", 23% surmised it "might" be due to mankind....

Don't blame Marcon for his new slogan, he is not intelligent enough to come up with an original one so he had to plagiarizer Trump's.

My bet is that Marcon is a real insecure a-- kisser, just ask his wife that is old enough to be his mother lol

Whose left wing? Just because one isn't one of the Trumpeteers that many here seem to be, how does that make one left wing?

Scientific American:

Many More Republicans Now Believe in Climate Change


https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...limate-change/

That article is a year old; one has no doubt that even more Republicans understand that AGW climate change is real.

The only way you are going to get any real reduction in CO2's as well as any real effect in climate change is to get China and India on board as well at the same time. Anything other then that is a political redistribution of power and wealth scheme.

Trump called that one right, as usual!

AVB3, we know we aren't going to change your stance on global warming. But don't bring up the articles you claim to support your position. You need to go beyond the surface, beyond those articles. There are so many political influences that the real science has nothing to do with it at this point.

Real science has not proven AGW.

I don't think you're left wing. Just misguided. If you believe 100% of 'scientists' funded by assorted left wing groups, Soros, Sierra club and the like then you may not be open to opposing ideas. Many scientists that are against climate change don't get funding cause there is no money for that the big donors go for the sensational. And that right now is global warming err. Sorry climate change. The first name wasn't believable anymore. At any rate it is no wonder the eco tolitarians say its a settled science. All the opposing voices have been driven out of the community. Alta270. If Bill nye the science guy is your hero, here is a bit of info, he is not a scientist. This green movement is a socialist movement. You atla270 are a useful pawn. It seems that you want some Frenchmen or some corrupt leader of some armpit nation to drive policy around your personal life. I find that concerning, so you should move to one of these countries and be a Pom Pom boy over there. Perhaps you and Laurent Fabius of France, you know Laurent, the Frenchmen that indicated that in 500 days there would be climate chaos! Should be roommates. Climate Chaos? What does that mean? By the way he said that gem like 3 yrs ago. I guess I had a late frost in May I wonder if that was the chaos thing he was talking about. It didn't feel very chaos like.

Quote:
If they were honest, the climate alarmists would admit that they are not working feverishly to hold down global temperatures -- they would acknowledge that they are instead consumed with the goal of holding down capitalism and establishing a global welfare state.

Have doubts? Then listen to the words of former United Nations climate official Ottmar Edenhofer:


"One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with the environmental policy anymore, with problems such as deforestation or the ozone hole," said Edenhofer, who co-chaired the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change working group on Mitigation of Climate Change from 2008 to 2015.

So what is the goal of environmental policy?

"We redistribute de facto the world's wealth by climate policy," said Edenhofer.

For those who want to believe that maybe Edenhofer just misspoke and doesn't really mean that, consider that a little more than five years ago he also said that "the next world climate summit in Cancun is actually an economy summit during which the distribution of the world's resources will be negotiated."
Ouch.

You're ignoring scientists from China, Japan, Russia and over a 100 other countries, all who agree. None have anything to do with a Soros, a Gore or a DeCapprio. Observations from the Japanese satellites concur with the finding of the NOAA ones.

You're not suggesting that the Japanese are not independent, are you?

Trump had to steal it from Reagan first though due to his lack of intelligence

And again. He's 70 more than old enough to be his wife's father.

Well done

I would love to cherry pick articles and quote quasi communist scientists and such on the Internet at the same time charging my iPhone with fossil fuel sourced electricity but I'm taking my young daughter backpacking in the willmore overnight. I hope we don't freeze. It supposed to be a cold one. I will be on the lookout for any pesky climate chaos.

Great spot. Make sure you take bear spray.

Don't forget to keep your iPhone while you're out there.

2 homes, a car(s), travel all over North America and you have the gall to come on here and criticize other people's lack of belief in the AGW scam. Hilarious.

When you are a man at 70 with a 45 year old super model wife that makes you brilliant.

If you are a man and have a wife that is 15 years older then you are that makes you needy and insecure.

To those who think Trump is a fool.

Remember that when your taxes forever increase to pay for this mess.

As Albertans in 2018 we get to pay Alberta Carbon Tax
Plus the federal Carbon tax.

Think of that when it costs you more to run your trucks, boats, RV's next summer.

Yup,

Too bad Trudeau and Notley are not as "dumb" as Trump.
