That Must be “Treated,”


Seriously.. this kind of stuff is absolutely ridiculous.

May want to mention which side you are on, if at all. Also this is all bullshit, climate change is a cycle that repeats.

This issue is particularly annoying because of how blatantly manipulated it's.

I'm on the same side as you... lulz I saw what you did there But "disagreement is a disease" what's next?
Btw: This is not a joke.. this is a true story

I recently found this on my homepage on Facebook.



The complete stupidity of people these days is depressing. They believe everything that makes them feel morally good that comes with a misleading picture.

A recent example of this is the KONY 2012 shit. Everybody who supported that should feel like complete idiots.

It isn't misleading at all! They are very much real. This was exposed back in 2008 with all the coverage of the Olympics in Beijing.
Seriously.. Such abuse of life in any form is disgraceful, and evil!
Seriously, why doesn't the government take action under the cruelty to animals law?

Global warming is bullshit made up to get money.


And this.

Yea, because environmental friendly things make more money then say Tar sands?

Not only china. Whoever (the tourists) buys it is also part of the problem

Remember, no buyer, no seller

Who'll make more money if they got their way, the climate change crowd or the climate change deniers?

And yes it's a disease.

Nah.. It's the other way around xD
Seriously, we can have global warming.. without it being man made.

Seriously, global warming aside, the emissions that said to cause global warming have mesurable consequences on air quality. We know, proven and uncontested, that pollutants irritate asthma and can pose a serious risk to the elderly.

If you don't want to change our industries because of global warming, why not do it just to make the planet a nicer place?

Edit: You will see here that I used to buy into that cycle shit too. viewtopic.php?f=12&t=48676&hilit=global+warming&start=30 Interestingly enough, back then I was also a card carrying conservative and pro-Jesus. It's funny how when I became non-partisan, the cycle argument lost its strength.

climate change, it's the last thing I worry about.

I don't see the correlation though.

To stay on topic, and to add to what dom said, whether it's a cycle or the increased use of greenhouse effect products, it doesn't hurt to work towards making our planet a better place.

So we are going back to a time where the average lifespan was a lot shorter than it is today. But of course, the advances in medicine don't let that happen.

Ironically, this kinda proves her point.

Nowadays it's hard to tell what information is real and what information is forged, but the fact that our world is being negatively affected by the advance in technology is one we can't deny. How bad it is and how much needs to be done is a different, more complicated story.

Climate change warning: "Money grab" It's so obvious

Don't we already do that?

Most stuff I see concerning global warming doesn't actually ask you for donations or anything of the sort. They juste tell you that you need to be more careful and that measures need to be taken and that big industrial corporative companies need to reduce their pollution. Maybe someone's getting money from these companies from fees and what-not, but is that really a problem?

And it's not like the treaty's that enforce certain limitations to industry regarding pollution don't actually reduce the malicious emissions.

If this thread goes to prove anything than Climate Change Scepticism isn't a disease, rather humanity is.

The problem I have with big issues like this is that it becomes increasingly difficult to determine whether or not the opinions of people are valid. In this thread alone, made by people who stereotypically are video gamers and not environmental researchers, I've seen a hand full of contradicting ideas and each person is claiming that their opinion is the one and only true answer. This thread is just a small fish, too. When you start to really delve into the meat of the subject, you find this same mentality of "You guyz must be wrong because I'm super smart!" that just fills the vast spaces around valid arguments. Be it climate change, racism, sexism, video game and it's correlation to violence: the real issue is ourselves.

Oh, but I've overstepped my mark. MONEY GRAB TOTALLY CYCLES NOT A DISEASE I'M RIGHT YOUR WRONG.

I'll play the Devil's advocate here (can you still call it that if I haven't yet chosen a side to begin with?) Low-cost fixes aside, there are big budget spendings towards a greener world. To what expense do these spendings take from? Education? Health? Military? It all comes down to investing for long-term or short-term outcomes.
