FEAR! means PANIC.....they thrive on it!

we have come a long way since the beginning of the Industrial revolution its taken a while but look where we are?....

Aviation for one making a HUGE change to our lives...

ooops we mustnt mention that.... its all part of the PANIC we have now found ourselves in...

funny how it takes all these years for man to destroy our CLIMATE.....[1 -2 hundred years]yet for some unknown reason the experts.... yes that means our very own ozpol ones...

think we can undo something that took us years to create in what 10 YEARS maybe... Roll Eyes

right?

And what do governments always want to do?

Control people.......

and what's the best way to do that?

Fear, Emotion with religious zeal

that's what your Climate Science is.

Nice conspiracy theory

The problem is that climate change is accepted by the worlds scientists and is evidenced by the worlds retreating glaciers.

It's only the right wing loonies who have made it political

It's always funny when people who have no idea about science try to argue against climate change by misrepresenting the argument Grin

Cods no one is ever saying that we will get back to the CO₂ levels of before the industrial revolution. that simply won't happen.
All we can do now is harm minimization. The current target is to keep Global Warming to 2 degrees.
Personally I doubt we will be able to do that, especially due to government paralysis caused by conservative lobby groups

No, science is not absolute. there are always plenty of IFs and BUTs.
The science confirms that if humans continue to pump additional CO₂ into the atmosphere it will cause warming. There is debate about some of the detail but the overall mechanisms of Global Warming are sound and well understood.

As for the glaciers, a small number sometime advance due to local conditions but the vast majority have been receding for the past 100 years

So you are agreeing that additional CO₂ will cause warming.
I'm going to hang onto this quote of yours in preparation for when you do your inevitable back flip Wink
