EPA can no longer dictate CO2 emissions

[BartenderElite]

Or maybe so. Or maybe I don't know.

Doesn't matter:
" In about a billion years, most life on Earth will eventually die anyway due to a lack of oxygen. That’s according to a different study published in March in the journal Nature Geoscience.

The researchers suggest that our oxygen-rich atmosphere is not a permanent feature of the planet. Instead, in about a billion years, solar activity will cause atmospheric oxygen to plummet back down to the level it was at before the Great Oxidation Event."

That's very true. But a billion years is quite a long time.

We're accelerating the pace of making the planet uninhabitable for humans. But something else will adapt to the new conditions and take our place.

The way humans are devolving into diseased trumpanzee mutants, we're probably well overdue to be replaced by the next dominant species.
And it won't be trumpanzees--they're way too stupid to save themselves.

lie.

[BartenderElite]

lie.

Nah. Not at all.

Oh boy, now we’re going to get the arguments and “proof” from obscure weathermen and contrarian professors, usually secretly funded by the fossil fuel industries, that supposedly prove that climate change is a hoax, a fabrication, all in the hopes of selling a false paradigm, which obviously the above posters have swallowed

Very similar to the Big Lie, unless God Himself descends from above and tells them they are wrong their obstinateness will never allow them to accept the facts

CO2 Death cultists

Climate Audit showing the logarithmic heating effect of carbon dioxide relative to atmospheric concentration:



Science shows the decreasing effect of CO2. Each molecule of CO2 has less effect than the previous one.

The six Republican appointed justices should be dragged through the streets in chains so that decent people could stone them to death.
Add the McConnell's and the DeSantis' and the Abbotts and the Cruzes etc. to the chain gang. Not to mention the orangutan.


And unless we actually do it, they'll be nothing left of this republic that's worthwhile to save.
Is there even anything now?

I'm not threatening anybody, pigfucker. I'm saying what I'd like the coward Biden to do. Bernie or Liz would have done it already, bless them.

Fuck you asshole.

Wouldn't it be easier to cut CO2 emissions by shoving a tennis ball into Al Gore's mouth?

make John Kerry fly commercial..it is the height of lunacy for a "climate czar" to use a private jet

[anatta]

I’m trying to understand the argument, not misrepresent it. As I understand it, if we don’t act and make significant changes within a decade or so the damage we will have done will be irreversible for the planet.

This blue check mark Nasa scientist is talking about thousands of years from now. I take it that’s good news he thinks people will still be around that long? (He tweeted this prior to the official ruling)

I cant follow that one either..they are all crazy AGW
But clipping the EPA to make expansive law by regulation is a huge win for rule of law.

Big loss for earth, though.

that's it. I'm not making any long term plans

not at all

In no way am I up on this like say Primavera but everything I do know says it's solar activity
not freaking CO2 -so no AGW

Besides if you are going to make a ruling this big effecting so many industries then it has to be done by Congress - not the EPA

I'm not 100% sold on AGW - but I do know our activities are not sustainable for the next generation.

I don't trust corporate polluters one single bit. I love capitalism, but profit is the only goal. If they can make an extra buck, they don't care how much they pollute.

we have clean air and water.
This is about CO2, If you are going to start calling CO2 a "pollutant" that is a problem

I didn't. I said I didn't trust corporate polluters.
