Sorry to be over-strong. Take it as an indication that even those with an interest in unbiased coverage admit to it. See also the New York Times.Thanks for answering and not being a about it.
No worries I dish out as well.Sorry to be over-strong. Take it as an indication that even those with an interest in unbiased coverage admit to it. See also the New York Times.

No. That would be KOS and Politico. NYT and WP are merely mouthpieces for the Democratic party.By Republican standards they are probably radical leftist. Well, Trumplican standards anyways...
Even if global warming weren't a thing at all, fossil fuel supplies are finite, and people would have to change over to renewables sometime even if they could get away with not doing that for the next few decades.
Yeah, there's that little problem too. But then of course you can get into epidemiology stuff and a bunch of uncertainties appear about dose-response, and pretty soon the Merchants of Doubt show up to convince everyone that coal ash is harmless.Fossil fuels prematurely kill, like, thousands a year in the US alone.

What if it isn't a big hoax, just not a big deal?
What if the predictions are on track ?
And we hit 6C in around 100 years ?
When do we as humanity start to take it seriously, when the temp hit +3C, +4C, +5C ?
We might be able to rush some kind of global Apollo style program if we have say 50 years before the crisis point to have a reasonable chance of success. Any later and well might as well pray for some kind of hail Mary miracle science break though

4) Trump is defunding the science, intentionally. the cries of "it's not a settled question" are shown to be crocodile tears.
You file them with the predictions that gold will hit $10,000 an ounce as the economy collapses. You overstate the extreme worst-case scenarios. That's tin hat territory.What if the predictions are on track ?

bad linkNot just defunding, he's burning the books.
1) Say what? What theft? What is stolen?1) it's still property theft and an externality
2) this isn't how risk assessment works. Part of the expense is to mitigate the odds of a worst-case scenario. Part of the expense is to compensate the victims of a policy.*
3) we've known since 1992 that we needed to slow emissions

*"What about the oil field workers?!?" If you didn't want them paying for it, the customers should have. The global carbon buffer isn't owned by oil-field workers. And they've known it since 1992.
