It's better to use anecdotal evidence in this issue, than relay scientific data which will instantly be refuted and cat-called because 'liberals'.Martin Hash wrote:Dude, R U actually asking me to confirm anecdotal evidence?!GrumpyCatFace wrote:Climate change isn't an event, it's a process, and it's already started. Have you not noticed that your locale breaks heat records every single year (regardless of where you live).

Which do you think will happen first, the U.S. experiencing a civil war between The Right & The Left, or Climate Change?
This is no longer a question of "if". Ask your older friends about the weather, and you will get (maybe) 1 saying it's not different, right before he launches into a tirade about "liberals".
p.s. In fact, the PNW, where I live, has had greater Climate Changes than these during the late 1980s up to about 2000.
p.p.s. If you have ANY kind of scientific brain at all, you know better than to let your personal experience dictate the timeframe. My god, man, watch that last video I posted. The guy slam-dunks it.
p.p.p.s. Of course, there's Climate Change! Wouldn't you be surprised if there wasn't given Earth's history?

It was over a few decades, I think. Younger Dryas.

You may need to backtrack on this one, Grumps, formulate a more defensible position. There's something between, "OMG, we're all gonna die!" and "Burn that coal, baby, burn."

Re: Climate Denier Hard To Refute
I'm actually pretty convinced that was an asteroid impact - as I know you've heard too, or you'd have no fucking clue what the Younger Dryas is.Speaker to Animals wrote:GrumpyCatFace wrote:Over what timeframe.Speaker to Animals wrote:The thing that really dispelled a lot of the hysteria for me was when I got interested in the paleolithic and learned what real climate change looks like.

Fresh water from melting glaciers flooded into the Atlantic, causing the circulation of warm water to shut down. This plunged North America and Europe back into ice age temps for a few centuries. The climate change was extremely rapid, with glaciers covering much of Northern Europe again in short order, driving humans back southward.
It reduced carrying capacity of much of the land as well, possibly being the instigating factor for agricultural revolution in the Levant.

Regardless of the cause, do you think that our modern society would survive something like that?Speaker to Animals wrote:GrumpyCatFace wrote:I'm actually pretty convinced that was an asteroid impact - as I know you've heard too, or you'd have no fucking clue what the Younger Dryas is.Speaker to Animals wrote:

It's a lot easier to feed a small tribe than run a global economy, during a massive disruption, but I'm sure you've worked that out on your porch, right?

1. Yes.
2. At worst, human caused climate change is no nearly as drastic as that.
3. Global cooling is far worse than global warming.

You realize that you're talking about a mass extinction event, right?
