    So, some science guy said something wrong about science a lifetime ago, which makes all science wrong.

    Most all of the doomsday predictions regarding climate have been completely wrong. This doesn't make science wrong. Science can also be observable.
    The reason these predictions have been wrong so often is that they are impossible to prove.
    That's why it's a complete waste of time to make these predictions. You're better off trying to time the stock market which is also impossible, BTW.

    The bolded is just something people say. It's not true.

    The world now compared to the world 30 or 50 years ago is unbelievably damaged. We've just seen it evolve gradually, so don't think much of it - but the amount of habitat that has been destroyed, the # of species that have been lost, the melting ice & disappearing coastline, the droughts & extreme weather events. the negative effects on our water & food supply - these are very clear warning signs to humanity to get their act together. The planet can't scream at us any louder.

    The idea that predictions haven't come true is simply false. Things are so much worse today than they were a few decades ago. Who rationally thinks this is even remotely sustainable?

    Gee I don't know what to say. Maybe you're better off killing yourself if the weather is so unbearable for you.

    You didn't know what to say - and settled on THAT?

    Good discussion. Scintillating.

    Lots of "science guys" have said shit that's wrong about climate and they haven't said much that's correct. That's been going on for decades now. Hell, a decent psychic or tarot reader could make better predictions...

    Of course, you know more than all the world's climate scientists.

    Well show me a scientific paper published in a reputable peer reviewed journal where that is the conclusion of the study. If you can't, I understand and I'll accept that as your implied admission that it's not proven.

    Only microbiology. Freshman biology was boring but not that hard.


    And math
    Made A's in all my math courses. I don't think that's possible if you hate it. Besides I just said in another thread that I'd be land surveyor if I could do it all over . That's quite math intensive.


    And history
    Yeah, kinda boring memorizing all those dates.



    And Democracy
    I don't hate it. I'm not fond of our form of it, a two party system. I'd prefer a confederation of cantons like Switzerland has.

    No, but I do know they've been wrong far more than correct on virtually everything related to Gorebal Warming.
