Well, 1/2 correct

The current ice age began about 4 million years ago, the dinosaurs disappeared about 60-65 million years ago, so no, the current ice age did not kill off the dinos. Whether it was nuclear winter after an asteroid collision or just the 10-degree cooling of the planet after the rise of the Rocky Mountains and Himalayan Plateau is debatable.

The "current global warming" began approximately 20,000 years ago after the peak of the last period of glaciation, and therefore IT IS OBVIOUS THAT IT HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH HUMAN ACTIVITY. I'm still at a loss to understand why some people have difficulty with that concept. It's simple---20,000 years of global warming with only about 130 years of internal combustion engines---DOH! Yep, let's all go out and buy an EV. And yet those true believers call those of us who understand astrophysics and paleoclimatology "deniers". Actually, it's just about the highest compliment that we can be paid. To them all I can say is that I am also a "Santa Claus denier", an "Easter Bunny denier" and a "Tooth Fairy denier", but I am happy for those that wrap themselves in the belief of those fantasies as well.

66 Million Years of Earth’s Climate History Uncovered – Puts Current Changes in Context

Read especially the latter that does show the earth was warmer millions of years ago, but that was before humans existed. The current trend is moving much faster than ever in recorded history and is directly the result of human activity as these reports all conclude. Please stop the nonsense and accept the reality which is presented very clearly by these reports of scientists who have studied the phenomena.
Actually, the "nonsense" is what is posted above. "In recorded history" LOL. That's 6,000 years out of the 4,000,000 years that we have been in the current ice age. And recorded WEATHER/CLIMATE history is about 100 years old. Amazing how well the powers that be have sold this propaganda to the masses

Ya think that all the concrete, asphalt, big buildings, billions of people needing food, shelter, vehicles etc might just have an affect on warming???? Slow the expansion of people and problem solved

You do realize that storm prediction now is not what it was 100 years ago. That quality of construction and infrastructure is not the same now as it was 100 years ago. That even the measurements of storms aren’t the same. The earth has gone through many cycles and changes in its billions of years but I’m pretty sure it never had a population of almost 8 billion people before either. In just one year this planet has endured world wide floods, droughts, wild fires, record high heat, war. Many people are going to starve, freeze, drown. Because it doesn’t affect you doesn’t mean it’s not true. At one point, you worked hard, you studied, you were educated to be able to provide a better life for you, your family and their future. I’m worried about the life my grandchildren will have. What will this world be like, what will be left for them. Greenpeace and Earth Day in the 70s. That was only 50 years ago. What will be left 50 years from now?

Most Intense Hurricanes In Florida’s History
(From worldatlas.com)
Rank System Season Estimated Casualties
1 "Labor Day" 1935 400
2 Michael 2018 74
3 Andrew 1992 65
4 "Florida Keys" 1919 600-900
5 "Okeechobee" 1928 2,500
6 "Great Miami" 1926 372–539
7 Donna 1960 438
8 Irma 2017 134
9 "Florida" 1948 13
10 Charley 2004 35

The warming of the earth has happened at least once before that we know of. I think they called it the "Ice Age" where the earth cooled to the point it covered most of the planet with a sheet of ice killing off the dinosaurs, etc. But then it warmed up again and the glaciers that covered the earth receded...and it wasn't because of "greenhouse gases". We are still in that warming cycle and there's not an electric car in the world that can change that.
So you're saying the dinosaurs died as a result of the Ice Age.....which happened 100,000 years ago. I guess that carbon dating thing they use is a hoax huh?
I was wondering why it was so hard to get tinfoil at Publix last week… obviously the flat earth society is making hats out of it again.

Never said "science is a belief system". Read the post again.
We are not the only cause, but we are a contributing factor.
Accept it or deny it, the evidence is there.
No, the sky is not falling, but the earth is getting warmer.

"Summer fall winter spring" was the name of the Indian princess on Howdy Doody.

Seasons are not "climate change"/"global warming".

To quote Candace Owens "even if there were never humans on Earth, there would still be hurricanes, typhoons, tornadoes, earthquakes because that is what the planet does, not global warming".

So it makes sense to throw Billions/Trillions at it and then watch world wide fires and volcanic eruptions erase what was thought to be money well spent. Better to invest in what we can control, true needs.

Not 80+% of scientists believe in man causing global effects. Some of the top NOAA scientists are debunking this whole thing. The world is going through a natural cycle. Besides, we using GAS to create ELECTRICITY.

Call me old-fashioned but I prefer to take my climate advice from the 80+% of scientists who now believe that climate change is a result of mankind's actions than from some rabid TV news program. Act now and we can reverse it. Keep kicking the can down the road and your grandchildren will look back in 20 years and think what selfish idiots we were when all of the evidence was telling us exactly what we needed to do to start cleaning up our mess but we opted to ignore it just so we could continue to live our wasteful lifestyles.

When the temp hit 100 degrees in Alaska for the first time this year that was a big eye opener for me. There is something going on. Just look at the before and after photos of glaciers around the world.

So, did I understand that post? Does it claim that the temperature (weather) for ONE DAY in ONE LOCATION can be extrapolated to conclude that mankind is causing a change in a 100,000 year cycle and dooming us to live in a Venusian climate? Please tell me it didn't mean that.

All they want is control, we saw it most clearly during the China virus pandemic. Although inflation is itself a tax, that's why they raise taxes, they want to control the way our money is spent. Sad, hope others see this as well.
