He lays it out in simple language. Here we are, 36 years later, still sitting on our thumbs.

Which is still correct. That's the greatest existential threat to mankind. That is not a prediction. It's a simple statement of fact.Dr Sagan also predicted, at the time, that Nuclear Winter was the greatest threat facing mankind.
non sequitur *yawn*yeah we havent done a damn thing .........ummm.....ummmmm
Then you are not very interested. Enjoy the rest of the board's content.Give us the Cliff's Notes. I'm not going to invest 16 minutes of my remaining life.
Publicity sometimes seeks the great communicators. Publicity? yes, I am sure Sagan family raking in the royalties and basking in the attention from the 1985 CSPAN appearance.Once a scientist becomes more interested in publicity than research, he ceases to be a scientist.
Well thank goodness you are here to explain it to me.Over your head isn't it?

The earth is literally getting greener. Today, there are five percent more foliage than twenty years ago, and it is primarily ambitious tree planting projects and intensive agriculture, mainly in China and India, that are behind the increase. This according to satellite data from NASA Earth Observatory.Dr Sagan also predicted, at the time, that Nuclear Winter was the greatest threat facing mankind.

Yeah, sure. Bold proclamations when you cannot be refuted do not really impress. Carl Sagan was an avowed atheist. Shocking that one’s hyper intelligence combined with ego can become a deadly combination. At least that’s how other great minds are stunned by some these boastful unbelievers.Which is still correct.

But they can be. Show a mechanism by which the greenhouse effect does act to not warm the earth. It's just that simple. These "bold claims" are where the evidence takes us.Yeah, sure. Bold proclamations when you cannot be refuted do not really impress.
Totally irrelevant. Stick to the ideas.Carl Sagan was an avowed atheist. Shocking that one’s hyper intelligence combined with ego can become a deadly combination.

"Consensus science"According to consensus science.
Well that's an absurd standard you have contrived. So, when you consider that the same people who discovered and taught you those facts are sounding alarms on climate change... do you ever pause and consider the idea that you don't know what you are talking about? And maybe.. they do? You know, since you just cited their other discoveries.the last ice age lasted from 150,000 BC to 10,000 BC. Then the earth somehow quickly warmed up and has remained that way ever since. When you or Carl can tell me how man could have stopped that warm up --- or caused it --- then I will listen to your peripheral prophecies that have made human-induced global warmists so smart.
I am not saying science is always wrong, far from it. Are you suggesting that science is wrong about this ice age they teach about? Consensus means generally agreed upon. So given the premise this ice age occurred, my questions remain... unanswered."Consensus science"
No idea what that is.
The consensus arises because of the evidence, not the other way around.

You are suggesting that the people who discovered that are laboring under the ignorance of their own life's work. Absurd.Are you suggesting that science is wrong about this ice age they teach about?
Those are silly lies. Take that nonsense to the Rubber Room.Fort Fun Indiana
He was a Dr of physics but he was extremely far leftist and often injected Marxism into physics
