    Science disappears up its own fundamental oriface
    here we are happily debating what to do about the irregularities of a system said to be caused by human intervention when another branch of science tells us this system should not exist anyway

    What is the point? The scientists at the Hadron Collider have just disappeared up their own fundamental oriface or the scientific equivalent of it and if you follow a logical conclusion from that all efforts are futile. If you are a figment of someone's imagination it is no wonder that you cannot grasp the simple truth of climate change, it cannot be happening becuase it isn't there


    It's okay. Nothing really matters. We don't actually
    exist, anyway. Or so the Higgs Boson particle suggests | News.com.au

    Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! The lunatic fring left will decide its because we have been sucking too many solar rays out of the sky with solar cells and make them illegal, because they will believe they can influence the sun too.

    Turns out there are a few Republicans who want to do something about climate change | Grist

    Quote:

    Here's a helpful reminder that not all Republicans oppose climate action. Former EPA administrators who served under Republican presidents Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and George Bush I and II spoke out on Wednesday in support of federal efforts to regulate CO2 emissions from power plants. They appeared at a Senate hearing organized by Democrats to discuss EPA's recently proposed power-plant rules.

    What will they do in a solar minimum when the sun don't shine, perhaps it is that our sun is further along in its life cycle thatn we have been led to believe

    Love it ;now Tal is carrying water for a multinational corporatist who's company has many lobbyist roaming the halls of Capitol Hill . The truth is that Page knows that if there is warming ,man made or not ,that the agricultural belt will just shift north and Cargill will carry on.

    Gotta love the liberal logic . Change the climate of the entire world on our own? No problem!Build a fence and secure our borders? Impossible!

    Now that's a strange remark because down here south of the equater we are expecting the northern agricultural zone to become a food bowl and you think your southern agricultural zone will become more arid, I'm not sure exactly how that works, deserts git bigger and there is more rain somewhere. I think it's an ill wind that doesn't blow someone some good and that goes for climate change too

    uh yeah . Christie Witless is a perfect example of that . Except for Reagan ,all the Repub Presidents that these administrators worked for were /are perfectly happy with big government (Nixon being the worse. He's the one that created the EPA in the 1st place ) .

    Now that is pretty straight talking
    Fight climate change by building away from sea: Rupert Murdoch

    Rupert Murdoch proposes a more pragmatic approach to climate change, don't build on the beach. He suggests what we all know, taking on a more expensive energy regime is madness since we really cannot make that difference we are looking for. Now I know we are going to get howls of throwing garbage in the air, but reality says we know it is coming so do positive things to mitigate the effects and windmills arn't the answer. So this attitude actually acknowledges that certain parts of the world are going to be lost no matter what we do and no agony aunts are going to change that
