You see hypocrisy in the "alarmists" for not living up to their beliefs... but I see a much more harmful hypocrisy from YOU. YOU trust scientists to make your widgets and electronics and to be your doctor and pharmacist and you seldom fundamentally disagree with them. You take your blood pressure meds. But you carve out a special place for CLIMATE as if you have ANY training in it!
Suddenly you guys can critique science right and left and see ALL the errors that even the EXPERTS missed.
No, no matter the person, the subject, the circumstances etc.. if anyone wants to dictate to someone, they should practice what they preach. Just as simple as that. Lead by example and all that.
I don't trust any scientist, scientists have never ever crossed my mind. Science is a collection of theories, some say facts, but they're just theories trying to describe our surroundings.
Like everyone else, we are just consumers, and in more developed countries like the US and UK, we enjoy the things we buy. Solar panels and EV's are possibly "Greener" (whatever anyone wants to take from that), but still bad for the planet and won't achieve the alarmists goals whatsoever. Well, to be honest, they're really not green at all, but, it keeps alarmists minds at ease.
We rent the planet, we're here for a very short period of time, just a tiny blip in the earth's history. So if someone thinks I shouldn't place a log on the fire on a cold winters night, I will continue to chuckle.
You guys? Me and who? I did science, well, earth science called Geology. The funny thing is, they tried to talk me out of doing "O" Level geology at school, I passed. Then silly me did a degree in geology, but I have been in accountancy, management, and then construction after uni. Same thing happened to my cousin, but he does computers. Becoming geologists and getting a geologists job are two different things. But we've both done well.
Yes dinosaurs are reptiles, some were very big, some were small. I suppose you know which three mammalian branches appeared before the end of the Cretaceous period and which one took to the skies eating little reptiles, you're a knowledgable assuming type of chap/lass.
But this doesn't help alarmists, those totally void of earths history. But like you, I chuckle at their antics. Do keep pushing the scientists though, you're brill at that.
Any sarcasm in this post is purely coincidental
