One good thing.

so the scientists that denounce global warming is trolling? This is classic gamefaqs mods decide what is right and wrong. If they don't agree with what you say, you get modded. citing data, facts, counter arguments, all mean nothing. and the liberal hivemind eats it up of course.

fun fact, in the 70s it was global cooling, then it became global warming and when that didn't stick we got climate change.

You're wrong.

fun fact: they had to start calling it 'climate change' because idiots like our president would say "LOL global warming! look how cold out it is!" during the winter. and his idiot supporters would take it seriously.

is this aimed at me? because your link in the first sentence says:

Global cooling was a conjecture, especially during the 1970s, of imminent cooling

which was my point, in the 70s they called it global cooling.

Uh "global cooling" was not a scientifically backed idea in the 70s and "global warming" is still a very much alive and scientifically supported phenomenon.

The globe is warming, and this is where skeptics flip from "Not real" to "Yeah but the planet goes through warmings" or "Oh well can't do anything about it" and pretend no one notices.

Facebook welcomes fake news like climate change denying.

It says literally at the beginning of the article that it was conjecture and not scientific. Are you also skeptical of round Earth because "It used to be flat earth and now they changed to round?"

---

I really wish the myth that global cooling was ever scientific consensus would go away.

Global warming is a trendy scientific political talking point

Global cooling is an actual scientific theory based on facts and trends

Yeah, its hotter now but the odds of that reversing into the next ice age of a millennia or so is high

Gamefaqs suppressing conversation is sad but expected at this point

People love losing their freedoms with silence and a smile

GameFAQs moderators are overstepping their bounds, IMO.
---

There was no scientific consensus in the 1970s that the Earth was headed into an
imminent ice age. Indeed, the possibility of anthropogenic warming dominated
the peer-reviewed literature even then.

But he has been caught on numerous occasions to have altered the articles not just to make it more click bait-y, but to falsify information.

If the mods can't handle different political opinions on a political board, maybe they should close down the whole board.

Trolling is usually a bullshit moderation for saying something a mod disagrees with.

Fun fact, this is a classic anti-global warming lie and you should get suspended for posting this disinformation as fact.

Political opinion: I think taxes should be lower.
Misinformation: There is no scientific consensus on climate change.

At the same time screaming bloody murder and claiming we only have 20-30 years to extinction doesnt solve anything either. That exaggeration is a turnoff and is less likely to get people on your side

*Looks over at Ms Cortez.*

No. They made up bullshit and were wrong.

300 years ago scientists called burning shit "phlogistocating" and then it turned out there is no such thing as phlogiston.

Climate change is real. It has been since the birth of the planet. And climate change is inevitable, no matter what humans do.

Don't think people didn't notice how things changed from "Global Warming" to Climate Change in the last few years. Global Warming is political nonsense.

On a scale of tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of years, yes.

Pumping ceaseless CO2 into the atmosphere for a few decades to a century has immediate effect.

well...yes. This topic is dumb

And how do you plan to stop it? Grow your own food? Stop using electricity. Stop using transportation? Stop people from mining cryptocurrencies? Stop people from using heat in the winter? Stop population growth? The population was 990 million in 1800. It's only 8x that size today and everyone is contributing their share of C02.

I only did the slightest bit of push back on your dumb propaganda anus argument and you completely crumble and pick up an entirely new one.

Man, its so surprising which users are denying climate change.

No, you're typical. All cheese and whine and never any solutions.

Is his argument "Climent change is inevitable so what's the point in doing anything about it."? Cause that's a real shit take if so.

Our very deaths are inevitable. Eating healthy, exercise, all of this just delays it. Yet we still do it(or SHOULD be doing it at least).

So even if we can't stop it, I see no reason not to hold it off a bit.
---

Climate change deniers really have gotten stale in the last few years. Why don't they make up new bullshit instead of regurgitating old?
---

GreatEvilEmpire posted...

The solutions are pretty clear.

1. More Nuclear Fission power
2. More Solar power
3. Less everything else (coal, oil, gas, fracking, hydroelectric, etc)
4. Decommission all ICE operated vehicles / EVs for everyone
5. Stop deforestation

That's all.

I've always held the opinion that putting what amounts to a giant nuke outside every major city is a major gamble. It's like a person with a bee allergy keeping a bee farm. Yeah the suit will keep him safe for the most part, but all it takes is one little bee to slip in to do major damage.

Yes, we're aware that you have a gimmick about shitting yourself about nuclear power and thus justifying horrifying opinions via fear, Dunky.

Nothing is clear.

- Any damage to nuclear fission reactors would cause devastating environmental problems. Terrorism, anyone?

- Solar is inefficient and should only be combine with other types of power generation. In days like these, I can't even get enough sun to charge my motion detection lights. And try living in Alaska where they have 6.5 hours of weak-sun daylight in December.

- Heating in the winter. What is your solution? More warm blankets?

- EVs still use electricity. They just come from somewhere else.

- The planet have more trees today than it did 120 years ago.

Nuclear fission would solve all of the world's problems, but who would take the chance?

The solution is simple

Build the Dyson Sphere

pretty sure there is no doubt that global warming is a thing. We just still have people who doubt it's caused by us polluting the shit out of the planet.
---

Well those people are intentionally denying evidence that that is exactly why it is happening.

But also, a large section of the global warming sceptics claim silly things like there has been no significant warming for the last 20 or so years or even that we are closer to an ice age.

What gives GameFAQs mods the right to decide that their opinion is irrefutable fact, and that any other perspective must be silenced?

like I said, global warming isn't an opinion. It is happening.
---

It's a little troubling that people jump to criticize nuclear power for safety reasons and not for reasons that the resource it uses is incredibly limited and would be depleted quickly in case of a global upscaling. Like, a few decades worth of quickly. We're not going to solve anything by investing in an energy source that is running out

Should be a bannable offense tbh.

Can they start modding anti vaxers next?

Of course the usual suspects are climate change deniers.
