rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18762 | John Cook, the guy he is talking about has addressed the criticism, with the example that most astronomy papers don't bother to mention that the Earth revolves around the Sun in every paper. In other words, the consensus is so obvious, it doesn't need to be mentioned every time about a study in every aspect of climatology. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Panic? Historically warmer is better. The President is a fink. |

Crops go better, more land becomes arable, oceans warm up and support more fish. Ever been in the warm Gulf Stream at noon when the sun is directly overhead? Look into the clear water and it's a feeding frenzy, thousands of fish feeding on other fish. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Guess you’re going to facilitate Bible plagues. Longer seasons and warmer weather brings more bugs. Isn’t there something about insects arriving in enormous numbers and eating all the food? You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Today we have modern pest control for that. Would you prefer global cooling and crop failure? The President is a fink. |

Is 2016 modern enough? And suppose it got 100 times worse all over the place.

Been happening for thousands of years. If it was going to "get worse" it would have by now. Modern pest control methods will help stop the worst of it. Quit acting like you are special living in a special time. Neither it true. You still do not say if you prefer cold temps and outright crop failure. Ever hear of "the year without a summer?" Warmer is better! The President is a fink. |

So, you read that and thought it was nothing. So sad. I don't prefer any extremes. Why is that even relevant? You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

odiousgambit Member since: Oct 28, 2012 Threads: 154 Posts: 5112 | I think Cook felt that the consensus is to be considered so obvious that, yes, you can just assume it is so, even in the face of controversy, therefore you can just fake a study and no person who wants to 'signal virtue' would dare question it. That kind of crap really bothers me and says quite a bit about a person it doesn't bother ... but the development that bothers me the most is the recent one that has the quite clear assertion that we are also going to have to give up meat as well! that one really has me going. This is not about saving the planet, it's about accepting the virtuous lifestyle laid out by the kooks who have dreamed this up. Solar energy, vegan diet, socialist economy, identity politics, you name it, and it all is to be justified by science that is not to be questioned, which is to say science that is bad science by definition.
