Yes, but the climate change enthusiasts believe his name is "Gore"

The Sun produces more energy in a little more than one second than humans have ever generated or consumed in all of history.

It all adds up. One penny separates a millionaire from a billionaire. 🫠

Sorry. You're wrong. Only one of many voices spreading the news. Not even a minor prophet.

Hush now… Don’t expect to get an answer to a specific question… That would ruin the argument… Just accept “The scientists said so…”

In other words, the people who have the most direct financial interest in this, who really have no specific data and produce continual studies that contradict each other SAID SO… Accept it, minions!!!

I won’t even bring up “50/50” Tony Fauci who basically is about as scientifically accurate in his predictions as a monkey throwing a dart at a board. And his 50/50 track record dates back long before 2019. See what he had to say about AIDS back in the day. He couldn’t keep his story straight then either… Anyway… Just don’t question the scientists… They know everything…

Apples and oranges. They can both be part of the "fruit salad" we call climate.

Unfortunately, the minions HAVE accepted it---and there are far too many of them---which is surprising since the bell curve of the standard intelligence test predicts only 2.5% of the population has an IQ less than 70.

A quick note about Lightning ... Len Hathaway, the Villages Lightning Group coordinator, is scheduled to give his excellent Lightning talk today, Aug 23 at 4 PM at Lake Miona -- for the Philosophy Club. If you don't have lightning rods on your house -- you are in danger -- especially if you have gas lines in your attic.

Just a thought here. Maybe the focus on Co2 is missing the bigger picture of what/how the co2 mixes with and effects all the other components contributing to higher temps. Like one ingredient in a complicated recipe. No one thing is responsible for Global Warming.

Of course, the demolition crew with 3 tons of dynamite used repetitively over 20,000 years (the sun, Earth's orbit, underwater volcanos, etc.) are the ones responsible for 99.99999999% of the changes.

Thanks, that was easy.

Not the same by even the biggest stretch of the imagination. But, then, you already knew that. Interesting story though. 🫠

You correctly termed Gore as a "prophet," as Global Cooling / Global Warming / Climate Change is a religion. There have been many doomsday cults in world history; this is but the latest.

Gore was enamored with Roger Revelle, the founder of the Global Warming Church. Revelle himself, before his death, said there was too little evidence to mandate drastic changes:

"The scientific base for a greenhouse warming is too uncertain to justify drastic action at this time."

Prophet Gore, to his credit, figured out a way to use doomsday predictions to extract money from both followers and governments.

The more accurate statement would be that 100% of marionettes are controlled by the puppet masters that hold the strings. Case closed

Now, that aluminum fallacy:

A classic apples/oranges error.
A "sizeable" piece of aluminum? how big? 10 sq. ft.? 20? 50? Just to prove a point, I'll give you 100. And it's noted that exposure to the sun warms it. Of course. But note the surface area of the Earth is just over 5.6 TRILLION sq. ft. That's the comparison being made???? Then, note that burning "a little" fossil fuel, presumably on only a few square feet makes it very hot. The equivalent in that fallacy is that you would have to burn about 1 trillion times that amount of fossil fuel to get the same effect on the Earth. Again, case closed,

🤭🫢🫣 Oh, paleeze! The "case" is not closed. The investigations are still on going, and will be for a loong time. And the evidence is mounting and not going your way, no matter your claims to the contrary.

Your reading comprehension needs work. I did not term him a prophet. Not even a minor one. Just one of the many voices spreading the news. Maybe that is why you have gone down the wrong path? Just a thought.
