I personally wouldn't give a fuck if humans went extinct. A virus on the planet. Each and every one of us.

In short, I wish you all a quick, painless death.

Agreed. I prefer dogs to humans anyway. We need to breed some sort of dog/human species that has the intelligence of a human but the love, honesty and loyalty of a dog. 

 

We need someone to agree to breed with them.

Sounds good. What’s everyone so worried about? 

Go live in the Peruvian mountains and you’ll be fine.

When did global warming morph into climate change? Like that’s worse.

Show me one period over the last couple of million years were the climate was not in a period change. It has rarely been more stable.

Sorry but that is a load of bollocks. The rate of change is scary - there are once in a hundred year events every few weeks. It has changed from global warming to climate change to take into account things are changing at both extremes and it should stop idiots like Trump asking where's global warming every time there's snow.

Australia has flooding of unheard of levels in the North and massive droughts in the South and interior. The bushfire season is now all year.

If the changes the most pessimistic scientists claim we need to make are made, it would make the world a better place even if it did diddly squat as far as climate change goes.

Human extinction is being sped up by countries like Israel trying to wipe Palestinians out 

India vs Pakistan is more of a worry. Both have nuclear arsenal's and have enough batshit crazy fundamentalists to use them.

Party time, Anny Road has cracked out the dodgy graphs.

Arguing over global warming. So 2007.

You mean Greenland Ice core and Met Office Data.

Nah lets fire up Al Gore.

[Strontium]

Well, the ice caps and glaciers are melting. I don't think you need a graph to interpret those things as bad news.

They have been melting for 12,000 years.

Yeah thats bad news. Hate when they show how much they have reduced in size. Its probably the most obvious indicator that the planet isn't well.

Frozen Planet isn't as good these days as it was 12,000 years ago mate. Just ask Stringy

Who would have that cutting down most of the worlds trees, converting large swaths of land to commercial farming, killing off large amounts of animal species,pumping burnt fossil fuels into the air and polluting on a monumental scale, not to mention having nuclear tests around the world would have a effect of the world.

The events you state as once in a hundred years are nothing in the grand scheme of things and only register on the human scale, not the planetary one. We have been here for a fraction of a second in its history and been keeping records for the blink of an eye.

One of the impacts which is said to have hit the earth, whilst we were here is predicted to to have had the force of all of the superpowers warheads combined multiplied many thousands of times.

The Younger Dryas

 

This near-glacial period is called the Younger Dryas, named after a flower (Dryas octopetala) that grows in cold conditions and that became common in Europe during this time.

The Younger Dryas is one of the most well known examples of abrupt change. About 14,500 years ago, Earth's climate began to shift from a cold glacial world to a warmer interglacial state. Partway through this transition, temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere suddenly returned to near-glacial conditions. This near-glacial period is called the Younger Dryas, named after a flower (Dryas octopetala) that grows in cold conditions and that became common in Europe during this time. The end of the Younger Dryas, about 11,500 years ago, was particularly abrupt. In Greenland, temperatures rose 10°C (18°F) in a decade (Alley 2000). Other proxy records, including varved lake sediments in Europe, also display these abrupt shifts

Can we get to the end of the season first? Might be our year and would like to see it before we're all wiped out.

 

You could start with Creator Supreme now mind....

But it was not some freak weather pattern was it. 

The two most likely causes where from a massive impact or a super volcano in Germany going up. 

Fuck all you can do to stop that but its a bit easier to survive them things with trees and plant life to help clear the atmosphere, not adding to the shite in the atmosphere and not having 7 billion people to feed and not 2-4 million hunter gathers. Alot easier to survive a catastrophic event when your whole life has been that of early man and you can survive in a world of predators and can hunt and gather without modern technology.

Not sure of the point you are making.

Greta Thunberg and her little band of anti-semites should be attending class, not roving around in the streets protesting.

Wrong. Try watching Fringe.

More protests today, I keep wondering if this is the nicer and more peaceful side of something in its early stages. Something that's going to turn into mass global protests against corporations and governments, and that's going to resemble something more like a war between people and govcorps around the world. I'd like to think govs and corps will back down soon and actually do something that helps the environment enough but we know how fucking crazy they are so who knows.
