Are Republicans really against clean air and clean water? Is there ever too much "dirty"?

The planet's average surface temperature has risen about 2 degrees Fahrenheit (1 degrees Celsius) since the late 19th century, a change driven largely by increased carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere and other human activities.

Two degrees in over 100 years?
Time to panic!!!1!!!!!!!!

The warming began after the little ice age ended over 400 years ago.

orange, Chicago land used to be under a mile of ice, so it's been warming up a very long time. Psst, smart people call it naturally.

 

[sealybobo]

except, there's no evidence to that. Just post any.

Just for clarity, do you think there'd be life on the planet without fossil fuels?

IDK? I used to think fossil fuels came from dead dinosaurs but that can't possibly be true.

All I know is all the serious scientists disagree with you. They have lots of evidence you ignore. And you and guys like ding love to post facts that clearly don't matter. You think they are the gocha facts but science says what you are clinging to does not matter.

Man made climate change is real. The only reason you don't believe it is lobbyists pay Republicans a lot of money to lie to you. As long as half the population is stupid, they won't have to clean up their act.

Same lobbyists that told you cigarettes don't cause cancer. Your dad came to USMB in the 70's and spread that fake news back then just like you argue GW isn't real. The apple with a worm in it doesn't fall far from the tree.

My theory is that oil (not being fossil based) is a naturally occurring reaction between the earth's molten core and crust. Thinking it's all from dead prehistoric life that somehow got buried is ridiculous.

Yeah, I'm a fan of the abiotic theory myself.

Yeah. Serious about getting big Gov't Grants.

We’re supposed to be cooling right now but we’re getting hotter.

Hey fuck it. No my problem nothing I can do about human stupidity.

Only bobo would reply to a thread that died years ago and try replying to a member gone for years.

Jesus, for a minute I thought Deantard was back.

The climate record of the planet doesn’t matter when discussing the climate of the planet?

Funny that you say that but the IPCC doesn’t show any natural component in their reports that say the planet should be cooling.

Get rid of all soft drinks and juices full of added sugars. Then no need for flouride

Didn't you guys lose your shit when Democrats tried to ban soft drinks in NYC? Or 2 liters? Wasn't that an attack on our freedoms? And getting rid of all gas cars? Didn't that piss you guys off? But now you want to be the food nazis?

 

[jc456]

are demofks really for illegal criminals over americans and terrorists over civility?

 

[Sunsettommy]

That’s well water. Always a lie from a demofk

It can be tap water going through very old steel piping, with a LOT of rust in the water, I had to flush it out when I was assigned to maintain plumbing of the City hall building, they used a filter unit in the employees lounge which is why it was clean looking.

Dean never showed the source for the photo's which is why they can be misleading.

The issue with Republicans is that they want clean air and water but don’t want to be inconvenienced by it.

If it comes down to making money or protecting the environment, they will choose money every time

Have you actually looked at how low they go to stop even tiny pollution that is no longer harmful?

 

[rightwinger]

Yup
It is all part of the big picture

 

[Sunsettommy]

Yup

No it becomes a waste of $$$ and resources that could be better spent elsewhere.

 

[hadit]

Yup

Ever hear of diminishing returns? We have.
