    But try -- DO TRY -- to actually accept some facts that run counter to this brainwashing.
    No one is required to accept any fact. It is YOU that is mindlessly chanting what others have told you to say. Inversion fallacy.

    No gas or vapor is energy. You cannot create energy out of nothing. You are denying the 1st law of thermodynamics again.

    It was the Democrats in the House that produced impeachment articles that don't even conform to the Constitutional test of impeachable offenses. It is the Democrats that perverted equal treatment under the law. I is the Democrats that have WASTED 3+ years trying to overturn the 2016 elections.It is the Democrats that violate and ignore the Constitution at every turn.

    Trump is wrong for the world, wrong for America. Dooming the future for our grandchildren is not making America great. Hottest decade ever. Will the next be even hotter?

    Climate change is THE most important issue for all human beings. Now is the time. We can't mess around any more.

    Trump scores worse than zero. He is a negative. We have to get rid of Trump to save the Climate. We have to do it now. We don't have 4 more years. Now. It has to be now. We have to get rid of Trump to save the climate.

    Get used to seeing a lot more climate protests. More Greta. This is not going away. You can't wish it away. Can't be tweeted away. We must take action now.
    Perhaps you hoax believers should start doing your part and either walking or riding a bike everywhere you go.

    Some of them do, but they drive to somewhere to buy that bike, or have a truck deliver it. They also still live in a home that consumes fuel and work or go to class someplace that consumes fuel. That way they can pay for their bike when they buy it from someone that also lives in a home that consume fuel and works in a place that consumes fuel. Even constructing the bike requires a factory that also consumes fuel, using raw materials that come from other factories that consume fuel and ship it by methods that consume fuel.

    It's myopia and arrogance.

    In other words, they don't practice what they preach to the level they want the rest of us to do it.

    More than one on this forum, when asked why they don't do such things to the level they claim those thing should be done, has come up with an excuse.

    Argument of the stone fallacy.

    Apparently you are unaware of the Fischer-Tropsche process and similar processes, which synthesize both oil and natural gas from carbon dioxide, hydrogen, heat, and pressure (in the presence of an iron catalyst). All conditions found naturally underground.
    Methane occurs naturally in swamps and oil wells. Oil itself can be found anywhere you care to drill for it, if you are willing to go deep enough. It is found most readily near the edges of tectonic plates, especially where spreading action is occurring.

    Fortunately here in the United States, we have a great resource of oil in oil shales, easily obtained by fracking.

    There is plenty of oil. We are practically awash in oil. It's CHEAP right now (comparative commodity pricing).

    Yup. Renewable fuels. Both of them.

    None of this means it's "renewable," you drooling moron. Clearly you don't know the meaning of the word. Nor do you understand what CO2 does in our atmosphere, so your ignorance on this topic is hardly surprising.

    Renewable fuel: A fuel that is naturally replaced after extraction.

    Feeds plants. Otherwise, nothing.

    It is heart breaking to watch the new out of Australia.

    The loss of wildlife is one of the tragedies. Several threatened species are impacted, and some may face extinction as a result.

    Human industrial activity is the cause.

    As tragic as this loss of wildlife is, it also serves as a premonition for humans.

    We have got to drastically ramp up our efforts to deal with warming and climate change.

    Now is the time - it cannot wait.

    We have to get rid of Trump so we can fix the climate.

    NOW!
