Exactly, too many powerful people are getting richer off of it. ;)

Right, because no oil companies or industries would POSSIBLY get rich off of claiming that it's a hoax.



Holy crap talk about a myopic, one-sided view of reality.

See, this is exactly the kind of conversation I didn't want to have.

How many grant proposals have you written? How many people have you personally known go through the tenure process?


You most likely have absolutely no understanding of this process, so you let news reporters and politicians, who stand to profit just as much if not more than al gore, cloud your judgement.



Politicians have taken advantage of the science, big time, and there are lots of companies jumping on the bandwagon to milk this for every dime they can, but to insist that tens of thousands of scientists are liars and cheats, and that millions of points of data are fabricated is deeply offensive. Work in science sometime, put in the long hours and years of education to work in a field with little or no recognition, and people like you, who work outside the field, all to ready to trash you whenever your work disagrees with their preconceptions of the world, and then you might have some business criticizing us.


Until you've walked a mile in our shoes, shut the hell up.

I call it BS when I see it. ;)

Now if they want to talk about a real issue then talk about and do something about pollution, that is a real problem. :)

Only you don't see it, because you have absolutely no comprehension of the science. You see what your leaders want you to see.



It always cracks me up to see people rambling on about "sheeple" and blind followers all the time, when they blindly follow just as badly.



Do I think Al Gore is an alarmist who's making a pile of money on climate change? HELL YES!


Do I think you, or anyone else without years dedicated to the understanding of science, have any business judging a global community of scientists? Absolutely not.





And I also know that, UNLIKE SCIENTISTS, people like you will not change your view, no matter how much evidence is presented to the contrary, so I'm done with this conversation and only hope it gets locked soon.




Shame, too, that you had to bring the politics into it, because I found the original picture pretty amusing.

You seem to forget that people like us can read data, I held a 3.8 GPA in College and my IQ was 145 last time I was tested. ;)

I am not stupid and I don't believe everything I see in the news media, I really don't believe most of it, hardly any off it really.

Nice one Skunk. I just built a snowman with my boy and when I saw that pic the first thought was I felt sorry for the guy that made all of those. ROFL!

That's me in the back, waving.
 
Look at the huge chunk of ice off Australia, the shrinking ozone layer (which is the biggest threat), and the shrinking glaciers. Only ignorant people can say these things aren't real when it stares them in the face.

They started talking about that stuff over 40 years ago so nothing has changed and there isn't anything new.
