Trump Denies Climate Change

"The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive."

Pentagon: Warming Is a National Security Issue

"Climate change poses “immediate risks” to national security and will have broad and costly impacts on the way the US military carries out its missions, the Pentagon said in a new report on the impact of climate change released on 13 October."

"The Defense Department said in the report, described as a “Climate Change Adaptation Roadmap,'' that it has begun to boost its ''resilience'' and ensure mission readiness is not compromised in the face of rising sea levels, increasing regularity of natural disasters, and food and water shortages in the developing world."

Republicans Waver on Climate Change

From AP: ''WASHINGTON - For years, Republicans have questioned humans’ contribution to climate change, casting doubt on the well-established scientific conclusion that greenhouse gas emissions from burning oil and other fossil fuels are causing the planet to warm dangerously.

But as Democrats push the issue further into the spotlight, more and more House Republicans are themselves calling for action on climate change - even in oil rich states . . .  raising the prospect the party is shifting after a decade-long stalemate on reducing greenhouse gas emissions.''

Climate Change Deniers Can't Think Straight

Look how AJ's argument  "morphed" once we challenged him on it.



At 12:15 it was "man alone."

The debate is whether climate change is caused by man alone, or the cycle of changes a planet makes.

How Do We Know that Humans Are the Major Cause of Global Warming? 

Why Do Right Wingers Deny Science

 My dad (the old union boss) used to tell me, ''It all boils down to race.''



They deny science because their racist leaders in politics deny science. If the racist goppers suddenly STOPPED denying science, then the Pales, the Dinos, the Mistys, the Celestes, etc., would suddenly BELIEVE in science too.

Vagne Nukes His Own Claim

Thanks to Vagne for providing a link to this piece at Huffington Post. Vagne THOUGHT the piece refuted NASA's warning about man-made climate change. Obviously, though, Vagne didn't read the entire article, or he'd have noticed THIS part:



"Along with the overwhelming majority of the scientific community (including 98% of working climate scientists), we recognize that climate change is real and agree with the agencies and experts who are concerned about the role of carbon dioxide."

I noted that NASA says with 95 percent certainty that global warming is mostly man made. Vagne responded. After saying he doesn't believe NASA, he posted the above link --  which notes the Huffington Post TOO agrees with 98% of working climate scientists.
