At Breitbart, the five best arguments against climate alarmism.

Argument #5: The proposed solutions to “climate change” are “unworkable, dangerous and useless.”

We are never going to stop it.
We better learn to adapt.

Move inland.
Go from there.

I'm looking forward to the 10 pound tomatoes.

Yeah sure an expert!

Howver:
Nic Lewis’ academic background is mathematics, with a minor in physics, at Cambridge University (UK). His career has been outside academia. Two or three years ago, he returned to his original scientific and mathematical interests and, being interested in the controversy surrounding AGW, started to learn about climate science.
.................................................. ..........................
So so far, (although not a climatologist) he is one of the minority of professionals (<3%) versus the 97% of climatologists who agree humans absolutely are altering climate. Never said there were NO deniers with at least some sort of credentials. But you gents as usual are ignoring the vast majority to nitpick

Sorry Breitbart is meaningless. Talk science please. Btw, I have already addressed practical remedies. That is while there is still time left to do anything.

See #43

"Alarmism" is only an idiotic way to devalue the consensus, but the science remains

He says without proof or discussion. So you dismiss the issues raised without addressing them?

And even if your "science" is correct, what good is it if the vast majority of governments in the world opt to ignore it? Politics trump science here, and you ignore the reality of that issue. You can't prove "global warming" as anything other than a cycle we have been through before, and even if you could, no one cares.

Have fun with this.

You are not paying attention. "Global warming" is a political issue, not a scientific issue. It's been warmer, and it's been cooler. Rinse and repeat. Most politicians don't care about it and want it to go away.

Let me get this straight. The 97% consensus of climatologist, scientific organizations, and universities who agree that we humans are influencing the atmosphere, also agree those humans messing up the atmosphere, only live in China?

I don't know that I've ever seen the phrase "anti-semantic." I'll have to look around and see if I can find other places where that phrase appears.

If 70% of the pollution in the oceans and pollution in the air is coming from Asia, wouldn't it be appropriate to focus your attention there?
