    This is a silly post. Do you really expect anyone to take you seriously with such tripe?

    You meant to say my post exposes liberal hypocrisy and you don’t know what to say. Who’s carbon footprint is bigger, mine or John Kerry’s? Shouldn’t the leaders of the global warming cult lead by example?

    Want to make a bet? In fact I will do you a favour and ask you back up this claim

    Probably yours unless you have been paying for carbon offsets

    Wow! You seem to know all about this but come up short on the actual science. Who told you this was it Faux or lying Tuckums?

    WTF is a carbon offset? Oh, I know, I can pollute if I can afford to pay for it.

    Hold on. You’ve never seen photos of the homes of Pelosi and Biden? Pelosi’s home was shown a million times when her husband got hammered. Also, Pelosi crashed his Porsche while driving drunk less than a year ago. And do I really need to tell you Biden has a Vette?

    Sorry but how come you don’t even know THAT much? I have been paying carbon offsets every time I flew for the last 20 odd years.

    One fifth of CO2 increase is due to deforestation. Now a way around that is to pay third world countries to grow trees or at least stop chopping them down. In its simplest form carbon offsets do exactly that.

    Yup.
    Gregory Wrightstone: exposing the mass extinction lie
    4 years ago

    Charles Rotter

    Reposted from Fabius Maximus Website Larry Kummer, Editor Climate change 24 May 2019 Summary: The latest chapter of the climate campaign consists of warnings about a coming mass extinction of…

    [​IMG]

    A closer review of the most recent information dating back to 1870 reveals that, instead of a frightening increase, extinctions are actually in a significant decline.

    What is apparent is that the trend of extinctions is declining rather than increasing, just the opposite of what the new report claims. Also, according to the IPBES report, we can expect 25,000 to 30,000 extinctions per year, yet the average over the last 40 years is about 2 species annually. That means the rate would have to multiply by 12,500 to 15,000 to reach the dizzying heights predicted. Nothing on the horizon is likely to achieve even a small fraction of that.

    [​IMG]

    This new extinction study is just the latest example of misuse and abuse of the scientific process designed to sow fear of an impending climate apocalypse. The fear and alarm over purported man-made catastrophes are needed to frighten the population into gladly accepting harmful and economically crippling proposals such as the Green New Deal.

    Rather than an Earth spiraling into a series of climate catastrophes that threaten the planet’s life, we find that our planet and its estimated 8 million species are doing just fine, thank you.

    The data are the data. They do not support the alarmist narrative.

    Again and again I must post this but in this case it is the usual twonkerism from Whatsupmybutt. Unsupported opinions versus science - yeah usual standard for Anthony

    You seem to have missed the sourcing at the bottom of the graphs: IUCN Red List. The data are the data.

    So all of a sudden not having solar panels and driving gas guzzling cars isn't about global warming?

    Does it really need to be spelled out to you? No one person's effort is going to make any measurable dent. It's about creating an infrastructure that aims to cut harmful emissions. We NEED a paradigm shift, and we do that with sensible planning and preparation.

    Would you be in favor of banning private jets?

    This is typical leftist elitism. I don’t have to to it, but if everyone else does….
