I believe some of them would actually rather see harm come to their grandchildren, than to admit to anonymous posters on an obscure message board that they have been wrong for the last three decades on global warming.
    No one is going to impacted by the bullshit you keep pushing.

    The harm is done to those that are stupid enough to believe what you're pushing.

    Al Gore made all sorts of predictions that didn't come true and you're argument is it will happen this time.

    Ha Haaa!

    Right on. I am so glad to see young people out shaping the world. It is shameful, the world we older people are leaving to them. We must now depend on their young energy to fight for the world they want. I don't think they appreciate being brought into a world trashed by poorly regulated capitalism. The Earth bleeds for a better balance of well regulated capitalism and socialism. Neither one is right by itself. The secret is in the blend.
    What we are arguing about we will personally be suffering from least. It's our grandchildren. They don't care.
    It's disgusting.

    Some of our grandchildren 'get it.'

    If they didn't, they would not be out protesting.

    The failed predictions tell another story. Your religion is dying because your scary predictions never come true. James Hansen claimed the West Side Highway would be under water by 2000. LOL

    Sorry deniers. You've lost the future and the planet will be saved from you.
    Define "climate change" in a non-circular manner...

    Tell me exactly WHAT is "happening"...

    Bulverism Fallacy. Their supposed motives are irrelevant to the arguments at hand.

    Compositional Error involving people as the class. I am not interested in your bigotry, Micawber... Also a continued Bulverism Fallacy from above...

    Do you have any science-based arguments to make?? I have yet to see any...

    I cannot support socialism in any form...

    Capitalism creates wealth; socialism steals wealth.

    No need to resort to Insult Fallacies, but yes, those types of people outright deny Science, Logic, and Statistical Mathematics, all for "the cause" of their circularly defined Global Warming religion...

    Very true... It is a circularly-defined buzzword religion... It outright denies Science, Logic, and Statistical Mathematics.

    LMAO... the above is exactly the type of nonsense that makes the AGW religious nuts so pathetic.

    We have heard for the past 40 years that 'we only have 10 years to act or catastrophe!'.

    I will let rubes like you in on a secret. The climate has been changing for BILLIONS of years. It will continue on for billions more. Yes, there will be arrogant morons like yourself that think you can control the temperature of the planet. But the educated among society know how moronic that assumption is.

    Seriously? The weather will be 'totally different'... LMAO... how fucking retarded are you?
