Are you afraid of climate change?

[Sabrina_Caleri]

Yes

No

[Surely]

Climate change is probably real. But is it cyclical or humanoid caused?
It seems that the people in charge are stuck on current ideas. There doesn’t seem to be any incentive to look for newer and better solutions to fossil fuels. Just forcing the current technologies down our throats!

[Surely]

Thank you for the MHO!

[Astarlessnightsky]

Deeply afraid, espacially with all the morons out there closing their eyes to the facts.

'Climate Change'. When you take a serious look at the actual data collected over time, while there has been at temperature increase over the last 2-3 decades the overall temperature has been on a downward trend since before the Industrial Revolution, the same applies to CO2 Levels, over the last 2-3 decades the overall the actual levels of CO2 have dropped and we are actually in a CO2 dearth compared to earlier decades. And while this is going on the propaganda put out by the UN-CCC/WHO and other private organisations (WEF, etc) have pushed 'Climate Change' so pervasively that it is seen as a 'real thing' and if you push back against it you are dog-piled by MSM.

If 'Climate Change' was real how do they explain that the number of bush fires world wild have been steadily dropping, with exceptions like in Australian where yearly control burns to control ground litter were stopped by the 'Green' politicians, which resulted in a massive build up in ground litter which resulted in the Bush Fires of 2019-20.

I'm not worried about climate change because the proof of it seems to involve a lot of data massaging by well-paid scientists. And the solutions offered by governments seems to be a combination of carbon credit trading schemes to make themselves richer while also demanding that the middle class and poor make do with even less "for the environment."

I am deeply concerned about pollution, however, because very little is done to meaningful address that and its negative effects are obvious. Our water supply, the air we breathe, and various regional ecosystems are being poisoned and little if anything is done to address that because everybody's so focused on climate change.

[Abbycado]

Yes and no. I am afraid for those down the road that will have to really deal with it. For myself, it probably won’t effect me in my lifetime.

I still do my part to not be wasteful and contribute to it as much as I can.

[Surely]

More people needs to think like you!

[Abbycado]

Ty! I do my best to keep my footprint small. I only use my car to drive home on breaks. I ride my bike around campus, don’t by bottled water, recycle when I can, etc. Just do my little part the best I can.

[Surely]

I wish more people would follow your example. But unfortunately. I have heard awful things about some recycling centers and how New York gets rid of their waste.

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

Yay ! End of semester, time for grades, who's gonna win?

After the Cold War, the Heat War?

[SeekerOfTruth007]

Not really. I'm 44 years old, so by the time AGW gets really, really out of hand, I'm going to be dead already anyway. Not my problem. I didn't create it. I'm on a nuclear power grid which produces zero net emissions, and I don't even own an automobile anymore.

So not my problem, I didn't cause it, and I won't be here to see the worst consequences, so "No," I'm not afraid of Global Warming.

[Fireguy17]

the climate has always been changing.
remember when the US was pretty much covered in glaciers some 200 million years ago?
They melted and man was not even around.
Mother nature does not do anything quickly.
100 years is not even a blink of her eye, yet that number is used quite often to measure change.
We still might be on the tail end of when the glaciers melted form 200ish million years ago.

[Jackblue]

I think scientists are afraid of change, so they have been emphasizing the bad aspects of global warming and glossing over the good ones, didn't know there were any good ones, well that is because while scientists have admitted they exist like more plant life and less risk of cold weather deaths (cold weather is a lot more deadly than warm), but they have failed to emphasize them.

[Staximus]

The earth was warmer and colder than it is now many times in the past, from geothermal activity and our distance from the sun changing over the years. It will be colder and warmer again. There has been at least 5 major ice ages on earth, so there has been at least 5 periods of global cooling followed by global warming. People are retarded if they think this is the only time the earth has got warmer. They forgot about that thing called geology.

[LeatherDame]

I’m a bit concerned about what the weather and environmental shifts will do but I’m VERY concerned about how our governments generally exploit any crisis to consolidate their own power and this is a never ending and escalating crisis.

[RavVid]

Ask yourself why would climate stay the same when it has always been changing?

I don't understand why people think it will be the same forever when it never has been.

[slatyb]

Mostly I'm afraid for my kid and grandkid, but it will affect me too. Mostly I will be experiencing summer smoke and an inability to travel due to wildfires in the northwest US.

[KostasKouvalis]

Nah. Climate has changed in the past and we're still hear and the earth is still here. It's just a matter of humans adapting. Because the earth will be fine. A few places might end up underwater, but in a few centuries they'll resurface again

[Anonymous]

Yes. I study history and believe we are due a major calamity related to climate change such as volcanic winter, earthquakes, extreme weather etc. Human civilisation is so fragile.

[ProbablyClueless]

Not particularly afraid, no. But I wish we would do more to respond to it as a species.

[exitseven]

Yes, I am worried that the moonbats will make me buy an electric truck.

[DrPepper12]

If it worries futurologists at the DoD then it's worth worrying about.

[Massageman]

I just usually avoid stepping in bull s - - t.

[seeyounexttuesday]

Climate changes the entire time the earth has been around.

[Anonymous]

Nah, I prefer summer to winter.

[jahaims]

Nope

[In_Trance]

Not at all

[Kingofkings1992]

Nope.
