Will the United States again respect Science?

[WEATHER53]

Science, which is mostly research , and health have been perverted into political and social tools.

 

[schmidlap]

Too bad you loonies cant think for yourselves.

I know enough not to in esoteric areas that demand knowledge that I lack.

When I encounter problems that are outside my personal acumen, I look to expertise. E.g., when diagnosed with cancer, I consulted oncologists with impressive credentials, rather than treat myself via a DIY manual, or seek the opinion of a failed casino operator or faded reality-tv performer. I'm glad that I did, but not being an ideologue or a lickspittle in a cult of personality, I was free to take advantage of the best medical science in the matter.

Concerning anthropogenic climate change, one has the added advantage of common sense - A sentient entity would expect that spewing hundreds of thousands of tonnes of industrial greenhouse gases into the atmosphere would affect the atmosphere in a predicable way, and the empirical data that has bee accrued and analyzed confirms it. It makes sense.

 

[Mac1958]

but WE woke up and corrected our fuckup immediately.

When you say "WE" are you referring to woke white guilt whackos, pole puffers, rug munchers, feminazis, chicks with dicks, wetbacks, barely American foreigners, BLM animals, criminals, drug users, and lowlife begging degenerates...you know, the groups that make up the Mexicrat Party?

No, he means his own communist self and the millions of grotesque figments of Dems' diseased imaginations who allegedly voted for only Biden in the middle of the night.

Hey, ya NAILED it!

As with other disciplines, Americans have been subjected to a contempt for the science of climatology that has festered in the highest echelons of government recently.

The stark disparity between reality and crackpot notions has dire ramifications, and no, ingesting disinfectants will not protect you from the ravages of unchecked fossil fuel consumption.

Climate change is making people sick and leading to premature death, according to a pair of influential reports on the connections between global warming and health.

Scientists from the World Meteorological Organization released a preliminary report on the global climate which shows that the last decade was the warmest on record and that millions of people were affected by wildfires, floods and extreme heat this year on top of the global pandemic.

Separately, a sprawling analysis published Wednesday by the medical research journal The Lancet focuses on public health data from 2019, and finds that heat waves, air pollution and extreme weather increasingly damage human health. It is the most comprehensive annual report yet on the nexus of climate and health, and is routinely cited by climate policymakers. The authors include dozens of physicians and public health experts from around the world.

Both reports make an explicit connection between death, disease and burning fossil fuels.

This foolishness has not only been an embarrassment for the United States that has surrendered leadership in the global crisis. It is a perverse refutation that will have severe economic impact, provoke mass migrations, and destroy quality of life for humans as well as other species.

Will the nation step up to face this enormous challenge that is already wreaking havoc?

Probably not...Kim Stanley Robinson has a series of science fiction books that feature climate change...he calls this era, "The Dithering'...and so it is. He also predict that
'Boomer' will become an insult..denoting a wasteful person whose selfishness condemns later generations to decades of austerity..and millions of deaths.

Great writer....probably a bit too....everything...for right-wingers.

He's a bit too much of a moron. He's a "science fiction" writer. Did you notice the "fiction" part?

A SciFi writer gave us the concept of a geostationary satellite.

Science is not infallible.

But it's better than mysticism.

How many genders are there?

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

No it's not 364, at least according to an owl friend of mine!

Did you believe I wouldn't notice that you didn't answer the question?

Why are Dims always afraid to answer this?

Smells like a psychological trap.

It's trap that forces you to admit that you're a fraud who doesn't believe in science.

Yeah? How was it suppose to work? Were you planning on conflating Gender Identity and Biologicals Sex?

Gender is just another name for sex. If not, then what is it? Are you now saying there are more than 2 genders? If not, what are you saying?

You sure are dancing around a lot to avoid answering the question. That's because if you give the answer you believe, you know I will ridicule you mercilessly.

No, when asked for answers to a scientific question, you refer to a legal professor or a 50 year politician.

NASA was compromised a long time ago. They have not sent their own human rated spacecraft up for a decade while the extreme feminists, quota lovers and globalists slowly took over the organization for decades. We should have returned to the Moon a long time ago and at least circled Mars by now.

Liberals believe having it both ways is sane policy
Masks are critical because they trap Covid but don’t trap your exhale.

If as they contend cases are soaring then that would have to mean the lockdown is not working but they want more lockdowns. When the method doesn’t work then double the effort-that’s called insanity

 

[EvilEyeFleegle]

Yep.

It would have been a different story if we had reelected this buffoon. But we woke up and corrected our fuckup immediately.

And that applies to several different issues. We will recover from this much faster, since it only lasted four years. The stain has only had so much time to set in.

Trump can still tweet to his adoring lickspittles that ingesting disinfectants is the cure for climate change if he wants to.

Elsewhere, science will be the guide.

Trump's surrendering global leadership by absconding from the Paris Climate Agreement is not irrevocable, but the damage has been done. Trump decided to align the U.S. with international pariahs Iraq, Iran, Turkey, Libya, Angola, Sudan, Yemen, and Eritrea, rather than be a leader among the overwhelming consensus of nations.

"It must be my B.O."​

I do think it would have been significantly worse if we had re-elected him, doubling down on our worst behaviors and impulses, proving them to be true.

When a person or group or country immediately recognizes their mistake and corrects it, it's human nature to give them another shot. Especially when it had formerly been the most trusted and depended-upon country in the world. The rest of the world was worried but hopeful, and we didn't let them down.

There was no "mistake," douchebag. We voted for Trump precisely to put an end to the agenda you and shit-for-brains support.

..and now you've lost..so guess what's coming?

Gender is just another name for sex. If not, then what is it?

That is the right question.

The words "gender" and "sex" are sometimes confused, but a person's sex refers to biological characteristics determined at conception or in utero; a person's gender is understood by many researchers to be influenced by a range of societal and environmental factors as well as biological factors. A person can be biologically female and experience gender dysphoria or gender incongruence, because they do not identify with their assigned sex.
A person might identify as transgender has a gender identity that does not correspond to their biological sex. The term "cisgender" refers to a gender identity that corresponds to one's biological sex. People whose gender identity feels neither masculine nor feminine, may identify as non-binary.

[ReinyDays]

And, you have identified the REAL problem. It's not climate change or anything else. Those are symptoms. The real PROBLEM is overpopulation.
Nobody wants to admit that.

It's not a problem for people connected to the internet ... Anglo-America and Western Europe all have fertility rates below replacement ... it's folks without electric power or internet connections that are breeding like crazy ... it's worth the added carbon load to get these people connected ... humanity before science ...

Sorry, turd, but gender is the same thing as your biological sex. That's how the word has been used for hundreds of years. If you are a biological female, then your gender is female. What you're spouting is pure quackery. It's leftwing horseshit.

That's your conception of science: 132 genders.

There is no way to demonstrate what someone's "gender identity" is. There's no way to measure it or quantify it. When we talk about imaginary qualities, we call it Voo-Doo.

Here are the genders that are scientifically quantifiable:

XY chromosome - male
XX chromosome - female

That's science.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Look where we are with Trump in charge in just four years. And he had been given an economy that had been slowly on the rise for several years.

It has nothing to do with Trump, it has to do with Biden's buddies in China. Our unemployment rate today is less than half of our high when this first hit. We had the least GDP damage of all G7 countries with the exception of China, and that's only if you can trust their reporting. Our stock market recovered quickly. Even in July, new housing starts increased by 21.7% This all has to do with the confidence in our President.

If Biden does make it to the White House and even implements half of his plans, we are going to go in the opposite direction. And I'll be my hundred dollar bill to your dollar bill every one of you will be on USMB looking for ways to blame Trump for all of Biden's F-ups.

The economy was on the rise when Trump took office. He then juiced the economy a little more by tax cuts....permanent for the corporations and temporary for the average person.
He then ignored the coming virus. Even making fun of it. Look where we are now. Pandemic getting progressively worse and worse and under trump's reign we're doing horribly with it compared to other, more advanced nations with normal adults, not nut jobs like trump, in charge. Exampl...Taiwan. Seven or eight people dead. USA? pushing towards a quarter million under Trump.

What Is the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA)?

The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was a major tax code overhaul that cut taxes for individuals and businesses. Many of its reforms expire in 2025.

Pelosi could get a House bill done today, to make the tax cuts permanent.
