Climate change will knock one-third off world economy, study shows

so mr argrisilly did any of these weather events ever happen before the last few years ?

crop, everybody knows climate change started in 1979. It was all wood elves and blue sky and streams for the millions of years before that.

Hmmmm …

We have set numerous high temperature records on the planet in the last 10 - 15 years and many other record extreme weather events and you guys are still talking about weather! Its only weather! The climate has always changed! LOL

Climate is measured over 30 years and our climate has changed because of human caused climate change.

You can lead em to water......but they will still say the earth is flat!

lot of eastern manitoba we are told was under water at one stage , when ? why? how did that happen ? were they burning a lot of fossil fuels back then ?

[chuckChuck]

So Crop, you have heard of the natural causes of climate change?

Now maybe it's time to learn about the human causes? Naw that would require thinkin!

[AlbertaFarmer5]

Now you would need an environmental study , pay for a permit and on and on and on , just to do the reasonable thing to help prevent natural cycles.

Then you would have to consult with every first Nations who has ever set foot on that territory, compensate them, check for endangered species, ensure that the crews are gender diverse and that there are lgbtq portapotties available.
Decades later when all of the hoops have been jumped through, nature will have created a natural fire break using fire.

Umm chuck, hate to be a science denier and all that, but if emissions are caused by burning oil and oil is derived from decayed plant matter from millions of years ago and plants absorb CO2 through their leaves and branches, wasnt all that CO2 already in the atmosphere back then.

And wasn't there an explosion of life to take advantage of the beneficial levels of co2? Everything grew bigger and better and with more variety, and inhabited more of the Earth.

Just give cc. time to think about what he would tax us on to handle natural causes of climate change.

Huh?

Slow natural climate change is not a risk compared to relatively rapid and unprecedented human caused climate change that could send us into uncontrollable irreversible climate change.

And there is no evidence of a return to the glaciers anytime in the next several thousands of years unless an asteroid or super volcano erupts.

And if that happens you will have bigger things to worry about!

You and I will be long dead.

Chuck, you really should study some climate history before making a fool of yourself in public. The pace of natural climate change throughout geological history has been breathtaking at times. Our current climate is so stable and benign compared to much of History that our ancestors wouldn't recognize how good we have it.
Check out the book by Michael Fagan about the little ice age. He is a hardcore climate change supporter just like you, so you won't be offended when you read it.

More human caused climate change denial?

More CO2 will be good for us?
