Is "man-made climate change" a religion ? And if so, what motivates it's preachers / believers to follow it ?

For some people, it obviously is. Think of it as a denomination of the Church of Environmentalism.

That's not to argue there aren't science and facts supporting it -- but for most people who fervently believe in it, they neither know nor understand the science, and some subset of that group would not accept contrary data if it were presented to them.

I should also add, if you even bothered to read the article, it doesn't refute climate change. It just says the oceans wont rise quite as much.
What really matters is surface area, the more surface area you have with a higher albedo the more heat you reflect. The smaller, the lesser.
The ice sheet is surface area, the snow is just what piles up ontop of that surface area. Thus, not changing the surface area, or the albedo of a place that already has a high albedo.
As for localized temperate, that can be explained through things like weather, and also the fact that the polar regions are still cool enough (for now) for water to enter its solid state.
In other words, you're fucking dumb as fuck, you fucking idiot.

never said i was a denier, what I deny is that it is caused by man and that it will have measurable impacts on our quality of life (air pollution and material waste is still a problem, but this has nothing to do with climate change)

There's only two variables needed to construct the mean temperature anomaly: temperature and time. Your assertion that there are spooooooky hidden factors that make it impossible to understand is a lie and you're too fucking dumb to even understand averages.

>> No.10335514

Okay guys. Imagine a system with a few trillion free moving parts and we only know a few variables like in and outgoing energy and some general properties of the system.
I mean, how do we even attempt predict what this system does? It's highly complex and nonlinear. It's impossible. We can't preditct anything.

And yet, meteorology is accurate enough to predict rain, and other such phenomena with a fair degree of accuracy.
Funny that.

Okay so with time and temperature of the past you can deduce than climate change is totally caused by man and you can also make accurate predictions for the next century ? Why don't you go buy some options on the stock market, since you seem to have divine predictive powers, Mr Nostradamus.
