High Cost of Climate Change

[Mr. H.]

Star and the Old rockinhead, the chicken little's of GloBULL warming

what a life to sit around and put down your own country

No, it is stupid assholes like you that put down this nation. Assholes that denigrate education and science. Assholes that think that social safety nets are sinful, and would happily see children in this nation in need of food and medical care while the upper 1% are making billions off the backs of the working people of this nation.

Now at no time have I connected the slide at Oso with global warming. There is enough annual rainfall there to make that slide inevitable. What I have stated is that we know enough about the physics of landslides that we predicted that slide, and with instrumentation, could have given warning that the hill was starting to move.

But that does cost money. So the question is, how much money are the lives of the people below such areas worth to the community and state? For people like you, Staph, the answer is obvious. You think that 63 cents per taxpayer is too much to pay to insure that children have food to eat.

This might be a bit off-topic, but speaking of education and science... If Liberals and environmentalists supposedly have the market cornered on education and science, why are they the ones so staunchly opposed to hydraulic fracturing? They distort facts, employ scare tactics, lie, spread propaganda, disrupt public hearings... yet know little to absolutely nothing about the process, the science behind it.

These aren't scientists and educators, they are petrophobic anti-business socialist bullies.

And BTW, you can call me bone headed ignoramus stupid asshole too.

Mr. H it is the people within your industry that have given fracking a bad name. Criminally negligent disposal of the fluids, not enough care in making sure that aquifers were not being affected. We need the natural gas as a bridge fuel. But we must have good water. Both on the surface and in aquifers.

Well, there ya go. I think if you educated yourself on the science, your concerns would be vastly mitigated. Bone-headed ignoramus stupid asshole.

Seriously, three stands of hardened steel casing cemented within each other is not protection of aquifers? Who is protecting our aquifers from the true rapers of the environment- agriculture?

And with thousands of frac jobs taking place on a monthly basis there is bound to be mishaps and screw-ups and yes, outright negligence. But that is the exception, not the norm. And we wouldn't have access to that bridge fuel without fracing.

 

[Politico]

Ginscpy keep your drunk antics in the religious section please.

 

[elektra]

Climate change. The solution is to increase heavy industry, burn billions of tons of oil to produce a windmill the morons and worshippers can look up to while being oblivious to the massive increases in consumption and pollution that these monstrous ideas require.

That is correct. And that is why you don't see me posting about doing away with fracking. However, negligence and failure to check the geology concerning aquifers are a real problem. Particulary when the people that cause the problem have no way to rectify the problem.

As for agriculture, I have posted many times my opposition to the careless use of chemicals and fertalizers. And the petro-chemical companies are complicate in the overuse of both. It is the whole mindset, that maximum profit today is far more important than viability tomorrow that is the problem.

Maximum profit is a good thing, it equals success, where as on the other hand, there is zero profit in Green Energy, just the constant increase in the use of the worlds limited resources to make politicians rich and the idiots feel good about their swimming pools and frivolous luxuries.

 

[Abraham3]

And how do you feel about your frivolous luxuries?

 

[editec]

I'd estimate that the POLAR VORTEX (whatever the cause) cost me at least $500 more in heating my home than normal.

Throw in the additional $200 or so for extra snow removal.

Here's the thing about GLOBAL WEIRDING..its gonna get very expensive for ALL of us sooner or later.

In most cases it ALREADY IS.

ok and just what the hell are we suppose to do about it to stop that?

we can all move back into cave, ride camels, burn camel dung for fuel, eat grass, etc

Did I suggest you or I could do anything about it?

No.

But here's something I am fairly confident is also true.

DENIAL won't fix anything either.

GLOBAL WEIRDING is already here.

As to what can be blamed on this trend?

Anything weather related (good or bad) is of course going to become cumulatively part of the the "climate".

Likewise the CLIMATE is going to factored into todays' weather.

The only difference between weather and climate is how each describes differing spans of time and region.

Weather and climate are inseparable..they are manmade constructs designed to help us describe natural phenomena. They are NOT separate things.

Seriously... do you people really need to be reminded of this?

This isn't obvious?

 

[Abraham3]

I think Stephanie could eat grass and burn camel dung if she wants to. At least, I can't see what it would hurt.
