You can pretend a threat doesn't exist but that doesn't eliminate the threat.

It's not a national security threat. Obama only included it for political reasons. It doesn't make sense to treat that like actual threats, since you can't prepare for it the same way.

Hey man, if you're going to try and bait Trump supporters into an argument at least use words they'd understand

You're right. It's a world security threat.

Trump is the very definition of "Someone else can handle It"

Last week when we got 6 inches of snow in Austin, I heard some people say, "See. Global warming is such a crock of shit."

Yeah, it sucks. Local weather is literally the opposite of global climate, and winter still exists.

Ever notice how the same people who when faced with a cold winter go "Weather isn't climate!" are the first people during a summer heat wave to go "SEE??? Global warming!"

Global warming is a junk science government funding frenzy and needs to be put down. Of course the planet is warming up. We're still coming out of a freaking ice age.

Than anyone is capable of? Im pretty sure Donald Trump, and Vladimir Putin could kill every person on earth several times over in a matter of days with the amount of nuclear weapons they control.

Here's what's actually going to happen, as the climate bands move poleward:
Current shitholes get shittier.
Your air conditioner runs slightly longer.
Louisiana sinks into the ocean slightly quicker.
Growing seasons in the plains extend a few weeks longer.
Oranges can be grown further up the coasts, possibly even in Maine someday.

a 5 year old putting their fingers in their ears and going "LALALALALALALA" is funny and cute. A 30 year old or however old you are, doing it is just sad.

Few days ago I made a topic asking how you come up with your political opinions. You said you start with the facts. Yet you apparently think you know more than ~98% of climate scientists and reject the facts they present?

What I don't get is why liberals refuse to have a debate about climate change.

I don't care how right you are, you're never going to change anyone's opinion by just saying they're wrong and leaving it at that.

"Facts?" The whole "consensus" is a myth.

"We're right because we say we're right" is now how science works. That flies completely in the face of the scientific method, and what do they turn around and call people who object to their politics? "Science deniers."

the likelyhood of this happening is pretty low.

meanwhile the summers get worse and worse.

Not to break up the anti-Trump circle jerk, but the report did add this:

As for climate change, the draft report says The United States will remain a global leader in reducing traditional pollution, as well as greenhouse gases, while growing its economy. This achievement, which can serve as model to other countries, flows from innovation, technology breakthroughs, and energy efficiency gains not from onerous regulation.

Because they tried to go after John Coleman, and he told them that it was a crock of shit.

Right. The deregulation is a separate matter.

There's nothing for you and I to debate.

Bertrand Russel's rules for skeptics:

1. When the experts are agreed, the opposite opinion cannot be held to be certain.

2. When they are not agreed, no opinion can be regarded as certain by a non-expert.

3. When they all hold that no sufficient grounds for a positive opinion exist, the ordinary man would do well to suspend his judgment.
