I'm a big fan of LIFO.

So if you read the article you'd realize this was an anomaly based on a changing wind pattern and a surprisingly cold summer.

There have been spikes before like in 1992, 1996 and 2001.



If it keeps recovering great, but that would go against a 30 year trend that has seen sea ice decrease by roughly 40%.

Believe what you will, though.

Does God have anything to do with that? I thought George Soros could blot out the sun?

Statistical reasoning is lost on dtd/predoubt if it involves any nuance.

We need to act NOW. I am sick of these big corporations putting off this future crisis with the sun. We have to start putting billions of dollars towards this, just think of the future generations.

Stats are great if you realize that looking at 30 years in comparison to a planet that is billions of years old is what we call a small sample size

Give scientists a few million years to get their own guys in there

That's intellectually dishonest.

30 years ago is when Greenhouse gasses started to make significant changes to the earth's atmosphere.

It's actually quote honest. Greenhouse gasses come from many sources, not just man and not just the last 30 years.

You're using the small sample size to defend the small sample size

If we just keep moving the goalposts....

We're doing what is prudent for clean air and water and our air and water is cleaner than it has been in a couple centuries. Europe as well.

I don't see any calls to put taxes on China's gas, only ours. If its the rest of the world go bother them and leave us the fuck alone

You've already admitted you aren't going to actually do anything about it so now all you have to do is admit that you're being led down a path that ultimately will prove to be a giant waste of your time

Who cares what a Big Black Cock things?

Also, I don't deal in defeatist arguments i.e. blaming China for rising sea levels, rather then making business-friendly changes to heavy industry.
