Climate change is real and caused by humans. Here's NASA's website on it https://climate.nasa.gov/ , let the evidence convince you. If you still can't accept it then, I don't know what to tell you. This is not a political issue, no matter how hard conservatives and the alt-right try to spin it. Scientists, literally every major country but the US, and even the Pentagon agree that climate change is a huge threat we ourselves caused.

Climate change is real.
Everyone in the world knows it.
The USA acts as if it isn't real, because its whole economy is based on petrol.
The US dollar is the world's reserve currency because of petrol.
The minute we switch to sustainable energy sources, the American economy will collapse.
So you can see why there is a problem here.

Well, the climate has always been changing. The political term "global warming" was "global cooling" not too long ago, it's better to say that the climate is simply changing to a more "extreme" climate depending on where you live on this ball. Whether or not it's caused by humans doesn't matter, the planet and life itself have survived numerous calamities (both exterior and interior influence). Whatever the outcome may be, politicians will try their best to tax you for fuckall, because their salaries depend on it.

You should also take climate models from other countries and compare them. For example, take American, Russian, and the EU's climate model's, and after looking at each of them, look at each countries say in these matters.

Yeah America doesn't pollute you are right.
It's all those under-developed countries that do.
I wonder who owns the factories that operate there...

And btw my main argument wasn't that America pollutes, is that America derives it's economic strength from the petrodollar. If the oil industry collapses, then the dollar will stop being the world's global currency.

One is physically impossible, the other requires only 144 minutes of dedication, if you really care about the issue that much.

To qualify that, I'm going to assume each article takes around 5 minutes to read.
So, that's:
[math]5∗90,000,000=450000000[/math]
That's 450,000,000 minutes.
There are about 525,600 minutes a year.
So:
[math]450000000/525600=856.164383562[/math]
That's 856 years, which is physically possible.
That is about 10.7 human lifespans, assuming I start reading at age 0, which is unlikely.

Heck, you've probably even wasted a comparable amount of time shitposting on 4chan today, alone.

>> No.10370828

I am also split on the issue but i think it is more complex than jist one side being right. The majority of scientists agree that climate change is real("majority" is under contention) but people are arguing if man made climate change is a big deal. Carbon in the atmosphere is not at the same rate as temperature growth(again under contention). Both sides have somewhat creditable arguments but i think calling the other side retarded is unproductive. Another big point science is not a democracy. Just because the majority of people believe in something does not mean it is right. It is better to take a objective look at both sides and keep a openmind.
