Environment and climate change
Re: Environment and climate change
I would be a climate doom and gloomer if at least one of the predictions ever came true, but we are 60+ years in since the predictions came and not a single one has. If the seas were going to rise, the insurance companies wouldn't insure homes built near the coast and the climate change fear mongers wouldn't buy those homes. How many times do they need to be wrong, before we claim the boy cried wolf?

You've evidently never been to Miami.
Re: Environment and climate change
This just started happening in Miami? Have people stopped building homes in Miami?

Re: Environment and climate change
I'm too tired to have a lengthy back-and-forth about this, but, many climate science predictions have come true, and many of the measurements today are actually *worse* than predicted. But I guess if the Truth Ninja Ape doesn't tweet it, it didn't happen.In2ition wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 7:35 amI would be a climate doom and gloomer if at least one of the predictions ever came true, but we are 60+ years in since the predictions came and not a single one has.

Oh that's all just a farce and a scheme cooked up by the liberal insurance companies to bilk millions...

Yeah, climate alarmists are the biggest grifters around.

Re: Environment and climate change
I have no idea. I haven’t heard him mentioned in a long time.
The only grift I see is endless Trump messages begging me for money just about every day on my phone. I don’t want his golden sneakers, his special Bible, his extra special water, his bobble head or any other grift he has going on. Maybe Trump could start his own grifter tv channel late at night where he peddles his wares. That Gore guy. Now he’s the real grifter.

Re: Environment and climate change
I don't see very many people getting rich off of climate change panic. Some companies are making money by selling new environmental solutions like solar panels, electric cars, etc., but that's just business. People want those products, and companies selling them are making money. I don't see anything nefarious about that; isn't that the free market that some folks love so much?
If you want to talk about climate change and money, climate change is going to destroy a large portion of the world's wealth. We and other nations are going to spend trillions of dollars mitigating and fighting back and repairing damage caused by climate change.

Re: Environment and climate change
Since there is 193,000 miles of ocean coast line, I'm sure it's happening all over the world. I don't think Manhattan was very high above the ocean levels, iirc.

Re: Environment and climate change
We are talking Hurricanes. Certain places are more prone to hurricanes than others. Maine isn’t. Florida is. The water rising everywhere is a different thing. That’s ice melting.

Re: Environment and climate change
A Climate activist is having some reservations and talking about the flip side to what was thought as better for the environment.

I care a lot about the environment and climate change, but I hate when radical protestors do stupid shit like this.
