He has quite the home in Nashville and there was report in the news about how much electrical energy that palace used. His electric usage was equal to about 20 average homes in the area. Just like all the celebrities that fly around in private jets lecturing us to conserve more and stop polluting the air.

haha. And now the expert is some 14 year old Swedish chick.

Temperature surpasses 100 degrees Fahrenheit in Arctic Russian town - Europe - Stripes

The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from the Consulate at Bergen, Norway.

Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard of temperatures in the Arctic zone.

Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes.


Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm.

Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.


Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.


Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coast cities uninhabitable.

I must apologize. I neglected to mention that this report was from November 2 , 1922, as reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post 98 years ago. And, don’t forget to wash your hands too.

You know back in the 70s they were predicting an ice age. They then switched to global warming. Now they call it climate change. So tell me one thing they have predicted that came through!! Remember it is hard for a meteroligist to get the weather right just a few days out and these so called climatologists are predicting our weather 10,20,or50 years out!! I don’t think so!! Go to Tony Heller’s web site to get correct info

I agree it is a hoax, it's just another way for them to get more tax money to support it. Just like the one that was getting millions for GlobalWarming, now you don't even hear about him or see him.

Rhetorical question only.


Why is it, that so many things requiring an acknowledgement of personal responsibility, actions and/or possible personal sacrifice for the good of future generations...instantly labeled as a "hoax?"


Purely selfish attitudes?


I'm sure it's just a coincidence though.

I was told by someone here just last week that picking up discarded covid masks and gloves was not their job and that someone else should be responsible. Sound familiar? I guess that would be me though as I have to do it all the time.
When is the last time you purposely went into the woods to clean it up? Myself, last night (usually 3 trips a week for me) for 3 hours and I picked up a ton of crap from bottles, to diapers, a hat, pair of socks. Plastics, garbage etc is just as much a danger to humans than anything else IMO and it can be proven! It's killing wildlife and humans by the millions annually.
Everyone wants a fix but no one holds themselves responsible. The hypocrisy is sickening!
Concerned about the melting ice? When is the last time you took a bicycle or walked to the store instead of your car or cart. What's your a/c set at? When is the last time you turned it up a few degrees and your hot water temp is set at??? When is the last time you walked to one of the squares?
Did you buy a new car or home? Should have bought used, they've already been built and are less impact on the environment.
Want grand kids? Sure, we need more people also.

Well then, obviously some of my points didn't apply to you...so you shouldn't take any umbrage.

While I'm not going to publicly list what I do/have done/am doing, in the quest for a pat on the back...good for you.

I think you deserve...a statue.

[nututv]

Never asked for anything, don't deserve anything, never thought I did. Thank you for trying to think for me again though. Wrong once again. lol

Young Earth creationism (YEC) is a form of creationism which holds as a central tenet that the Earth and its lifeforms were created in their present forms by supernatural acts of a deity between approximately 6,000 and 10,000 years ago.[1][2]

In its most widespread version, YEC is based on the religious belief in the inerrancy of certain literal interpretations of the Book of Genesis.[3][4]

Its primary adherents are Christians who believe that God created the Earth in six days,[5][6] in contrast with old Earth creationism (OEC), which holds literal interpretations of Genesis that are compatible with the scientifically determined ages of the Earth and universe.

Heard it straight from a guy once. I asked him about fossils. His reply was what fossils? All I've seen are a bunch of rocks that are shaped like bones. I remember leaving quickly.

Manmade climate change IS a hoax. Everything else is cyclical normality.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence though.

It wasn't "instantly labeled a hoax" It started when Michael Mann's hockey stick was found to be based on fraudulent data and when the hacked emails of several prominent climate scientists were leaked showing them talking about things like "we have to get rid of the medieval warming period" Other studies have shown that temperature records have been "adjusted" to make the graphs look more alarming.

It's very easy for me to find myriad instances where global warming theories have been wrong as well. I wonder why they changed the name from global warming to climate change?

From NASA


“Global warming” refers to the long-term warming of the planet. Global temperature shows a well-documented rise since the early 20th century and most notably since the late 1970s. Worldwide, since 1880 the average surface temperature has risen about 1 °C (about 2 °F), relative to the mid-20th-century baseline (of 1951-1980). This is on top of about an additional 0.15 °C of warming from between 1750 and 1880.

“Climate change” encompasses global warming, but refers to the broader range of changes that are happening to our planet. These include rising sea levels; shrinking mountain glaciers; accelerating ice melt in Greenland, Antarctica and the Arctic; and shifts in flower/plant blooming times. These are all consequences of the warming, which is caused mainly by people burning fossil fuels and putting out heat-trapping gases into the air. The terms “global warming” and “climate change” are sometimes used interchangeably, but strictly they refer to slightly different things.“

As perhaps the only commenter on this thread with an actual Minor in Earth Science, I'm just gonna make some popcorn and enjoy the show. So many experts, so much lack of knowledge. How many of you were there for previous ice ages? How many of you know that we are still coming out of the last ice age? Did you know that grape growing for wine was common in the British Isles in the 12th century?? Climate change IS real. It's been going on for 4 billion years. Right now the amount of land mass on this planet is at or near the highest percentage of the planetary surface ever ( as far as we can tell). Weren't we all supposed to be underwater by now? And one final comment about "experts". Everyone today accepts the idea of plate tectonics, the fact that the planet's crust consists of moveable plates that shift, separate, and combine over the millennia. Yet that "theory" was roundly rejected by the "experts" of the day. Food for thought. And speaking of food, popcorns ready!
