Climate Change -- conspiracy theory or is it time we all drive a Prius?

Excuse line next. "We have to do it wrong a few times before we get it right" The answers aren't clearcut. But they rarely are, unless we've done it before, and we haven't. That's why we can't just wait until the right time to start, IMO. If we wait until China and India are ready, they'll be selling us all the supplies and equipment by then, if they aren't already.

They already are selling the West rare earth metals and the solar panels and polluting while they are doing it. If we slow down the process and develop the resources to make the stuff environmentally responsible ourselves before moving forward we would end up with less carbon in the air world wide then is created now. CO2 is still rising in the world and the more s**t we buy from China to cut our output probably doesn't have a reduction in CO2.

Electing "skeptics" , sorry OG, denier is the right word for people who just plan to burn more fossil fuels because they claim it is a scam. That doesn't get us there.

As opposed to GW prophets like Algore who burn far more fossil fuels than the average skeptic?

Keep believing in your imaginary warming if you like. But actually do what you say you want and live without fossil fuels. Lets see how long you last.

Nothing that the US on it's own "gets you there" wherever there is. Without China and India on board it is just virtue signaling.

Virtue signaling is all the believers care about. In my experience the believers are the least informed and use the least thought on the matter. All they say is "the person on TV said the scientists said it so it has to be true." Then again they were the ones who were cheering for their freedoms to be taken away during the china virus and do not know what a woman is so what can you expect.

Yep.

Block the Sun because I perspired today working, China Virus spreading like wild fire so you're fired if you don't take the clot shot, and all females are not really females or your medical license will be suspended.

This is what we have to deal with.

And then their are climate deniers that are too dumb to even argue with. You'd think they'd argue with actual climate scientists if they had anything worthwhile to say. But they never do.

Meanwhile the believers just let the scientists do their thinking for them. I have yet to hear one say more than "the scientists said....."

Bring a scientist on here and I will say the same I have always said.

I will repeat that the skeptics I have seen tend to be far more informed than the believers. No believer I have met knows how much CO2 in the atmosphere. But they can sure keep saying "FOUR LEGS GOOD, TWO LEGS BAD" all day.

People who don't think much seem to have to tell everyone they think over and over. I now see the actual reason. Otherwise, no one would know.

Their brain is likely overcome worrying about people's gender.

I am not worrying about it. Males are born and stay male. Females are born and stay female.

You, OTOH, do not even understand this much.

People like you who do not think for themselves don't know what thinking is so yeah, we gotta explain it to you.

Sort of like how "woke" people are the most closed-minded bigots out there.
