I agree.

Problem is...most scientists are awkward and cringey.

For every Michio Kaku and Neil deGrasse Tyson, there are 5,000 mostly boring, cringey scientists.

You could even have a scientist sit greta down and give her valid talking points. I can't figure out why this hasn't been done already.

Have him work with her on weekends cuz she should be in school getting an education. Maybe science the shit out of this problem instead of ranting.

When I was her age, I definitely understood climate a lot better than she portrays. However, she is usually reading from a curated script that probably 5-15 people wrote for her. So it's possible that she knows a lot. WHO KNOWS!* WEEEEEEEEE!

*This is a "World Health Organization" pun because WHO is a left-leaning entity and a very strong "climate change, we gotta do something!" group.

The opposite of that seems true. Seems we have been freaking out over climate change for decades as the alarm bells keep getting tolled.

Almost no one, statistically, is an anthropomorphic climate change science denier. You can thank decades of alarm bell ringing scientists and political action groups for this.

You're wrong. The issue is media misinterpretation of scientific literature.

Example

YouTube video

More recently there was the coverage about the Amazon fires and high profile people's reaction to it. When the truth was there were only slightly more fires this year than in previous years. Like 8% more

Huh? I don't get it.

The scientists have been telling us about anthropogenic climate change for decades. Almost no one denies that. Almost every last person believes it. They scientists have not been ignored.

Yes. They've been telling "us".

What have that "us" done about it?

Almost nothing.

Hence... ignored.

Did those scientists invent some renewable energy sources as an alternative?

Scientists invent everything.

I can't remember where I read it, but I remember reading a lot of the pro climate change scientists also support using nuclear power.

Anyone know if this is true?

Yes. That's true.

So anyone putting stock in what they have to say should also be embracing nuclear power...

Everyone should be embracing nuclear power. It's literally the only technology with enough energy density to ensure we have enough energy and can tackle climate change. There is no other currently feasible option.

Coal power releases vastly more radioactive contamination than nuclear power stations. Let alone everything else.

That is ****ing bullshit with us not doing anything about the climate and you know it. The US have their far more than any other countries to lower their emissions.

I love the fact that no one mentions ii is China and India that are worse in emissions.

I love the fact that the West stands on this moral high ground about coal burning, yet refuse Africa the ability to use coal, yet turns a blind eye when China is burning more coal than ever.

If they had actually been ignored, then nothing would have been done at all. so it seems your definition of ignored is different from everyone else.

What you really mean is, you feel that more needs to be done.

The IPCC wrote a report last year specifically for policymakers in the run up to the Katowice Conference recommending drastic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions to limit the temperature rise to 1.5°c instead of 2.0°c.

They recommended a total human output reduction of CO2 of 45% by 2030.

Instead the countries decided to "pledge" to start doing what they "pledged" to do 3 years earlier at the Paris Conference. Which instead of a 45% decrease would actually mean a 50% increase on 2017s emissions.

Seems pretty ignored to me.

For a couple of examples, are our emissions(per capita) and level of recyling technology on the same level as they were in the 1950's?

Can’t refute use a meme. Classic 1st world problems.

-So tell me, how much Coal is Cuba and India burning again?
-Why does the West refuse Africa the ability to burn coal, when coal was the means the west uses to become the juggernaut they are today?
-why does the Paris accord was to force the US to follow certain doctrine, yet China and India were free to run rampart with a free check?
-why do westerners ***** and moan about helping, then turn around and use there 24hr electricity, cell phones, ac/heaters and cars?

You're still wrong in every way possible. Well done. That's what happens when you listen to political rhetoric.

Right...

Still can’t refute shit though.

So pray tell, what would China and India give up with the Paris accord?

Why does those in the west refuse Africa the use of coal, yet it was coal that made the west into the juggernaut is it today?

Pray tell, why does white left leaning preach about global warming, yet go back to their house, turn their ac/heaters on? Or use their new iPhones?

Why does white rich Hollywood elites preach of global warming, yet uses private jets and yacht to travel?

Yeah, keep saying I am wrong with no proof. Really help you.
