Speaking of credibility -- how about your own?  How about EDUCATING yourself on your own DEBUNKED conspiracy theories for a change, so you don't sound so totally ignorant??  Here's just a start.  If you refuse to read it, don't bother posting your "lies" crap from your right wing rags any more.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming_conspiracy_theory

Aside from the consensus of all the world's best and greatest scientists, just try using common sense for a change.   Picture the world spewing crapola into the atmosphere from the time you were old enough to recognize a smokestack or an exhaust pipe, multiply it umpteen, untold times by every vehicle and industry in the world, day after day, year after year, decade after decade - picture China's huge and murky skies, more recently thrown in -- and do  you truly believe that mankind could get away with spewing such pollution for centuries and not see the planet suffer any ill effects whatsoever?  Do you think the Earth has some type of automatic atmospheric washing machine?  Well, it just doesn't!   The future of this planet is in mortal danger and those who bury heads in the sand, not wanting to accept the facts, are making a very grave mistake for which their progeny will rightfully vilify them, if they're still alive to do so.

Typical liberal BS. Someone doesn't agree with you then they're uneducated. Talk about "crap". Did you know those climate change "scientists" have access to wikipedia, and the like, to publish what they want heard?

I'll post whatever I damn well please. Unless I'm banned. Then I won't be able to post anything. But, what I do post doesn't mean you have to read it. So take a hike sister. You're just another fake liberal.

I want you all to think about this for a second.  Donald Trump has selected a climate change denier to lead his EPA transition team.  The organization that is tasked with protecting the environment is going to be guided by a guy who simply doesn't believe in climate change, which is a phenomenon that enjoys the consensus of every reputable scientific organization on the planet.

Reputable scientists ? You mean the ones found to have fudged the data are considered reputable ?

Why do you suppose that is?

Because the overwhelming majority of climate scientists believe global warming is real and we're aggravating the situation by burning fossil fuels.  

Why are you deniers so dedicated to burning fossil fuels?  What's the great environmental advantage to pumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?  

PkrBum wrote:But back to the question.

Man made global warming is being taught. It's no surprise that it's now a core belief. You can teach young minds anything you wish... and without full context or dissent... it's all they'll know... unquestioning.

If you non-believers are wrong, everyone will suffer and the only question then is how much?

So why the fuck should we listen to Exxon Mobil and all the scientists they pay to say what the hell they authorize to be said?

It is trying to interject itself into issues that have nothing to do with controlling the Earth’s climate. These are some of the major things that bother me about this movement.

Technology is improving rapidly only because the world finally recognized it HAD to do something, and fast.

Technology advances because there is a PROFIT to be made.
