  • 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



    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

    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.
