Right now there is some big conference in Poland on climate change and how we are so screwed if we do not
stop using/charge expensive fees for use of green house gases form oil use. Trump pulled out of Paris accord and
is a climate change denier. I used to be a total denier, but have come around that we should do something- the problem is
do what?
I can't stop heating/ cooling my home or stop driving my car and do not want to pay some extra tax that
will have zero impact on the problem. Meanwhile the money pie can only be divided up so much- what with all the other world problems
on immigration/ starvation/genocide/needed infrastructure/healthcare/senior care etc. etc.
Lets' here your opinions please..................................Folken
Folken, dude, the climate has been changing, the globe warming, ice caps melting for several years now, all major scientific organizations including NASA and every other serious scientific research group have agreed on this. And 97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree*: Climate-warming trends over the past century are extremely likely due to human activities, industrialization.
The only people arguing that this catastrophe isn't happening are the wealthy elites that make money, (You know, the one who control government?) huge money off of use of fossil fuels, their transport and related enterprises that benefit , they are the only ones arguing against it. Hey but everyone should make up there own minds on political issues. A lot depends on where your income comes from.
