I’m so tired of this narrative. It’s the premise that climate change is man made, specifically by carbon emissions, that many of us question. There is plenty of science that disproves the premise. In stead of a healthy debate we have knee jerk reactions that become government policy. So now we’re ripping apart the rainforests to mine lithium for batteries to power electric vehicles. How does that make sense?

Show us that science. I have seen very little genuine theories refuting global warming. Lots of junk science though.

Oh but global warming is real -- we are still thawing out from the Little Ice Age -- and there's nothing anyone can do about it except to enjoy the ride.

You know they have ways of proving everything you just wrote is wrong don't you?

Pavement for the roads and the equipment to make and install it, food production and packaging, and on and on. Be careful what you wish for. Also all components of mining raw materials and producing components and transporting the raw materials and the finished product are diesel powered. Even the glasses sitting on your nose allowing you to read this disappear without fossil fuel production. Just saying

So whats your answer when the fossil fuels finally do stop? :confused: And please don't play the I'll be dead by then card

6 Claims Made by Climate Change Skeptics—and How to Respond | Rainforest Alliance

It is like we should all freeze to death because we are in a naturally occurring ice age not caused by all the pollution we have put in the air over the past 200 years or so.

The answer to all questions is easy ... they changed the name from Global Warming to Climate Change ... because they know what's coming.

Brazilian forests are or have been clear cut for sugarcane in ethanol production not for lithium

I like the Weather Channel. They actually have people with meteorological degrees.

Yes, I also like the weather channel but for some odd reason find that their 7 day forecasts to be off an average of 10 degrees F and rain forecasts to be 50% correct. This leads me to suspect their 50 year forecasts and their ability to determine cause.

All the forecast models go berserk beyond a month or so. When looking into the methodology, they force plant food (CO2) into the models and thus we have failed forecasts. Here's one of many examples, where the monthly and seasonal forecasts are almost always too hot on average. This is NOAA verification data - freely available on the Internet.

Looks like Wind Turbines are no longer innocent - they use fossil fuel to keep going ...https://twitter.com/JunkScience/stat...61198607802369
