news is broadcasting that death valley is getting close to breaking a record.
the highest air temp recorded is 134 but that was in 1913 way before the huge spike in co2.
now its 130 and its the end of the world.
Vidqun,
Quoting Alan Jones as the source of your facts tells me everything I need to know.
FYI, if the north polar ice cap totally melts it will have 0 effect on sea levels. Its already like ice floating in a glass of water, the effect it has on the sea level will remain the same after it has melted. On the other hand, melting Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets are a totally different story.
Thermal expansion of sea levels is the actual problem at the moment.

Mick, it might surprise you that I don't consider myself left at all, I would describe myself as conservative.
Nothing I said was straw man, it all happened and everything I've read by actual experts point to human activity as being the likely cause.
I actuality agree with you that things change, geological / climate changes happen so slowly that maybe we are experiencing a blip in a time scale that for the average human is hard to fathom.
That said, I guess the question remains, if you think human intervention is even partly to blame for climate change, what should we do about it? Pretend it isn't happening, burn more coal, drive bigger cars?
Especially since the covid pandemic, I've noticed that the same people that doubt epidemiological science, viral science etc, are also the same people that doubt climate science. Why is that?

Anon,
Yes, I'm sure you're right. I suppose events like the bleaching of the coral in the great barrier reef due to heat stress has nothing to do with rising temperatures. The fact that it has only ever happened 3 times in its history, all within the last 5 years or so is total coincidence and a left wing conspiracy.
Co2 in the atmosphere at levels not seen in a million years, also a conspiracy. The fact that the levels if Co2 have risen dramatically since the 1950s when everyone started driving cars, also when commercial air travel really took off, once again, all a left wing conspiracy.
Just before covid took over the news, Australia lost a billion animals in the worst bush fire ever, started by lightning strikes. Again, I'm sure it's coincidence that our hottest years on record have all occurred in the last decade. But, I suppose I should take the word of untrained internet experts over actual climate scientists.
Thanks for setting me straight.

Ok, I'm going to be 'that guy' and point out that there is a difference between local weather and climate.
looting is happening everywhere like never before.
brazen thieves walk into stores and bring a bag with them and simply throw whatever they choose in the bag.
popular chain stores have closed in certain neighborhoods because it’s just not worth it.
Pistolpete, what if the 'looter or shooter' kills 15 or 20 people before he is shot dead?
Just curious.
1. His avatar is his own face on an anti-jw website.
2. He is asking for certain posters to send information directly that may identify them.
But I'm sure he is legit 🙄
ok, i would like to submit to the forum the following question: in abstract, do you think that there is a right to not being exposed to ideas that you don’t like or disagree with?
please think it through and its implications on both ends of the spectrum.. it’s not the right to conscientious objection to do something you vehemently disagree with; it’s not about the liberty to chose which ideas you want to embrace or advocate.
it’s something different.. given that, as exjws, we understand the importance of being exposed to different opinions in order to form our own opinion, should someone claim the right not to be exposed to opinions or ideas that they don’t like?
It sounds like the father of the kids threw out the baby with the bath water. By not allowing his kids to attend the class, they missed learning about equality etc in a school setting.
However, I agree that some parents may want to be the ones that influence their kids when it comes to sexuality and gender, especially in the current political climate, instead of leaving it up to some progressive, gender- fluid hippy.
Your question applies differently to adults and children.
are you ready for the delta variant task force, funded by bill gates to come to your home?
after mass censorship and in some cases arrests ( australia ) for speaking out against lockdowns, or the dangers of untested medical procedures, we now have morons who want to send people to your home, to remove infected family members.... how will you know you’re infected??
a pcr test cranked up to detect anything of course!
DD
Pretty sure no-one got arrested in Australia for speaking out against lock downs.
There have definitely been arrests because of not following lock down orders. These arrests were because of mass gatherings of people that flouted health directives during times of covid spikes.
It had nothing to do with how many guns anyone owned.
Some Aussies believed covid isn't a big deal-no one has a right to tell them they have to wear masks- scientific researchers are all idiots-it's all Bill Gates fault, blah blah blah.
latest advice for jw parents: if your kids get disfellowshipped, fight the urge to blame yourself.
yes, great advice.
if your clueless, underage child is struggling in life, don't blame yourself, stop thinking about it and move on.

Yes, great advice. If your clueless, underage child is struggling in life, don't blame yourself, stop thinking about it and move on. Everyone has to carry their own load after all.
anybody know something about vat 4956?.
nebuchadnezzar's 37th year matches the year 588 bc?
any independant astronomer can test it and it only matches 568 bc.. .
Scholar, thanks for replying to my post
Even though you are clearly a troll and you may, or may not believe what you are saying, your answer gave me the info I need.
You have no understanding of astronomy and are simply parroting the erroneous view of the wt.
Your belief that because the moon is physically closer than the planets and therefore more reliable for astronomical observations is laughable and childish. Its like saying that the clocktower Big Ben in London is more accurate than a wristwatch because its bigger.
Just be honest, you are trolling us, right?
