Well, truth be told there is a device that reduces pollution drastically..........it is called an E-vehicle or E-bike. Buy one and BE THE CHANGE needed!

Well that's interesting since he is quoted as saying, "Regarding climate change he says: 'Denying out and out that climate change is a problem for humanity, as some cynics do, is an unethical, unacceptable position.'"

Seems like he may have taken exception to the cure (at least in the 2010 timeframe where your info came from) but he doesn't deny the disease.
Notice how the all-knowing Wiki ignored the "wealth" quote.

I am NOT responsible for that 1st quote.
But, I do agree with the post. Good job!

No, but I notice how you ignored the denier quote.

Sort of a maybe, possibly, or could be, not an "It is," is it?
It is NOT positive that animal and plant species are dying due to Global Warming. Last summers KILLER hurricanes hitting Florida were NOT very positive. It is NOT positive that there is very little monetary encouragement to buy an E-vehicle even though American car manufacturers see a large NEED by 2030.

According to energysage.com, the cost per mile for gas is about 3 times as much as for electricity to charge yur batteries. That reflects the difference in efficiency. Again, it's not even that simple. What you correctly imply is that you need to do a "total environmental warming impact" study (TEWI). I've done a few. But, they take a lot of work and I'm retired now, so won't be doing one here.
Thanks for a VERY informative post. Statements like that need to be repeated. Group understanding WILL eventually happen.

Sounds more like you're one of those with their heads in the sand. Whatever. When people are invested emotionally in something, nothing can change their minds.
My sentiments exactly.

Well, global wealth distribution is a factor in Global Warming. 3rd world countries are producing a limited amount o CO2 pollution because, OBVIOUSLY, they can NOT afford automobiles with their infernal combustion engines. They don't pay people to cut their grass with noise and CO2-polluting engines. They use donkeys instead of polluting farm tractors. And they use row and sail boats not 100 ft long SPORT yachts.

Doesn't matter. What matters is that there is no "man-made" climate change. If you truly believe that to be true, then tell me ... how much has "man-made" CO2 warmed the earth last year?

Do you actually understand what you are on about?
'cos I lost it in the translation from gobbledygook!

Haha! YOU used the quote to support YOUR assertion of no climate change yet the person YOU quoted will tell you that YOUR position is unethical and unacceptable. And just like that, it doesn't matter. (very similar to how the data you champion contradicts the trend you assert)

A scientist will tell you there is no way to attribute a one-year change to anything; there are simply too many factors to say this much came from solar activity, this much came from volcanic activity, this much came from CO2, etc. Someone who understood weather and climate and climate change would never pose such a question.... yet you do.

If you truly believe that "man" is causing global warming, then tell me ... how much did "man-made" CO2 warm the earth last year? Great is not willing to say -- can you?

Suggest you read the reply you are quoting.

Who is Great?

........Don't take my word - verify it with the book "The New Climate War" by climatologist Dr. Michael Mann of the U. of Pennsylvania.
