Not the same at all. They are taking government grants, which is money taken form the citizens at the point of a gun.


You don’t like it, go where no one is forcing you to pay taxes. No one is stopping you. You won’t do it, because you know you’re full of it.

You get forced to pay taxes anywhere. At the point of a gun. You cannot handle this truth.

That’s reality. You’re the one who can’t deal with reality. I said nothing about taxes being theft.

Make yourself a raft.Float out in the ocean. You probably won’t have to pay taxes ever again. Bon Voyage!

I don’t listen to them. But sorry the believers have made them authorities and heroes.

I have never see. The Algore movie but I wonder how much of it has not come true.

I don’t know and don’t care what Gore predicted. The climate models, even the early ones, have been pretty accurate at predicting temperature and sea level based on CO2 concentration. Where predictions have been wrong it is because they were based on hypothetical CO2 emissions.

I have been told we have 10 years left to fix things for almost 30 years now. As far as I can see sea level has not budged since the 1980s. We had predictions of global cooling in the 1970s. Too much time and effort is spent on all of this. What is going to happen is going to happen. We cannot change the climate of an entire planet.

If you look at structures close to the sea in old photos, the water levels are close to the same as recent photos.


But imaginary climate change is real in value because of man-made rules.

Like Amazon and Meta signed super-large contracts for Brazil's forest credits.


What those contracts will do is help eliminate the greened Earth and make Earth more of a desert, because plants love CO2.

I figured they're trying to restrict our food supply.


It's enough to turn a liberal into a conservative.

"Forest Credits." Kind of like how the mafia used to "sell" parsley to restaurants to use as a garnish. If you wanted to stay in business you bought it.

Or a college football star that got paid for turning the stadium lights out at night, when the stadium didn't have lights.

It’s way too late to “fix things”. The effects of climate change are inevitable, it’s a matter of degree. Time horizons given by anyone who is credible are based on specific goals of limiting the increase.

Sea levels are increasing. That’s not disputable. The data is there for anyone curious enough to look for it.

That was a theory that was never widely accepted.
