Ya know... at this point in time, I really don't care if we're done as a nation. The country's burning, and maybe we can rise from the ashes as something better!
India did not bring half their population out of poverty haha. and China brought much more people out of poverty.

Obama is in a lot of shit left over from the last douche bag that was in office. Either he spends a shit load of money and possibly saves the economy or he does not and the whole system of free-market capitalism collapses. Tough choice isn't it.
Spending is the problem. He could have easily saved the economy if he would have just cut spending which results in devalument of the dollar. (inflation) The dollar can only be inflated so much before it becomes nothing more than a piece of paper.
yeah but we don't know if the temperature increase is normal or not. "Global Warming" could be nothing more than an excuse to breed fear and want for protection (government).
Not in favor of government. But its not an awful idea to cut back pollution and produce clean energy when possible. Not syaing we have to make damaging leaps. But it is a step in the rigth direction
i heard that the difference between the "national income" of american people and their debt to the government is around 23 trillion dollars and still growing. im not an economist and i dont live in america so please if anyone knows help me on this one thanks
i must say economic growth brought us to this point where everything (the economic system itself) is falling apart. thus i dont think economic growth within the same economic model would really save us. quite the opposite in my opinion. Yes the creation of wealth will help but people have to come up with an absolutely new economic model to create this wealth. imo
Boy, you are SO ignorant abt india. And cutting carbon does help. Last time in New Delhi, just by bringing in CNG, the pollution rates have dropped DRASTICALLY. Just one city, holding on to cleaner fuel can bring in so much difference. Think about the whole country !
I know this because I was there... so yeah ... think again.
Free market ideology, being extremely shortsighted, assumes that capacity for growth is actually limitless, which allows for instant gratification and no concern for future consequences. This is simply delusional. There is no magic cornucopia of endless resources and no perpetual fountainhead of consumers.
The free market will take us alot farther than our government stimulus package will. Maybe capatilism isn't the greatest idea, but socialism sure as hell isn't the answer.
i witnessed the failure of the socialism myself. now im witnessing the failure of the capitalism.
people need a completely new non-hierarchical social\economic system. otherwise we gonna have similar global economic\social crisis every 50-100 years or so.
You may be right, but my argument would be that our politicians are so dumb that they didn't even carry out capitalism correctly. Hell, I don't think they're even going to carry socialism out right. Either way, we're screwed at this point.
I mean I don't think that capitalism really describes what the government was really enacting. As HBSchool said, capitalism may have worked better if our government was limited to the role defined by the Constitution.
whatever is going on right now was supposed to happen. Sooner or later. It was inevitable. Just like industrial revolution was inevitable. Same thing with todays economy. Any human made system (economical system aka capitalism included) will eventually grow old and stop working properly. You can not fix something that grows old. You can re-build it no doubt but sooner or later It will stop again. And when it does all sorts of crises arise
The circle of life if u like. The sooner we realize that the better.
I personally believe that every new generation of people is a little smarter than the previous one so some day human beings will invent some new economic system that "re-circles" or "re-boots" it self once in a while without any negative impacts on those who build it. Just like every living bio-system does you know
You haven't read a word of anything have you? Economic cycles are as natural as the weather cycle itself. Everything you know works cyclically. We are never going to be rid of these "global economic\social crisis".
That being said, you've never seen unadulterated capitalism. The question I pose is this, how much of what we know to have went wrong, would have happened had we a Government limited to the role defined by the constitution?
Also, don't let them underwrite everything that's been achieved under Capitalism. (Poverty Rates, Technology, etc.) We've wiped out entire diseases! (See Rockefeller Sr.)
Both "Socialist" and "Communist" types have a tendency to distort history, and take a lot for granted.
As we watch the social and economic devastation that capitalism spreads in its wake across the globe the time has come for some serious truth telling, starting with the stark truth that unbridled capitalism is a disastrous failure.
`It's the end of an era,'' said Shanghai-based Andy Xie, a independent analyst who was formerly Morgan Stanley's chief Asia economist. ``In 1989, when the Berlin Wall fell, socialism was discredited and the whole world turned right. Now financial capital has been discredited and the whole world, including the U.S., is turning left.''
Unfortunately you're correct, but again, SO WHAT? A Free Market didn't cause our current fiasco. Government did. It doesn't take much time on open secrets(.org) to see that our politicians are in bed with the companies that caused this mess. Oddly enough, they support those who want more Government regulation (Dems), hmm. I wonder why they support Dems, who "hate" big business. Could it be? Could they be trying to corner the Government racket?
LIMIT GOVERNMENT and watch these problems go away.
both the global economy and the modern governments everywhere on earth are the derivative from a global economical system we are all part of. The real cause is not the government\economy but the failed economical system. the monetary capitalism if you like. It was build to fail because nothing can grow exponentially. The failure was inevitable. All we can do now is to get over it by surviving the economic collapse and then build a new economic system that works better. imo
Excuse me but talking FAST doesn't mean the statements are true! You state that since "capitalism" came to India "poverty has been cut in half"? VOA says;Multinationals are expanding furiously in India, not only to tap the growing consumer market, but also to use it as a manufacturing base and to harness the skills of its engineers and technocrats.
But the economic boom has NOT trickled down to the poorest communities, and tens of millions of people still live on less than $1 a day".???
Look at a "standard of living" (Income, etc.) of any industrialized country you want. Look before and after their "modernization" periods. You acknowledge there's a "growing consumer market"... Do you see no connection between Business, Investment, growing MARKET S, a manufacturing base emerging, and an increase in the standard of living.
We have created a global culture that values money and materialism over life itself. In our pursuit of money we have given the institutions of money -- banks, investment houses, financial markets, and publicly traded corporations -- the power to rule over life.Recognizing only financial values, accountable only for money's replication, and wholly unmindful of the needs of life, these institutions are wantonly destroying life to make money. It's a bad bargain.
Can i have a trillion dollars plz? I bet i can spend it better then Obama can. I for one will reinvest it back into the economy if you know what i mean :D
You are just trying to screw with me now, aren't you? Should I be ashamed of my government for sending Hillary Clinton anywhere, to tell anyone what to do? Hell yes. For sending her to India to tell them how to strangle their economy, also, heck yes. But shouldn't we be far MORE ashamed of our government for going to Iraq and blowing it up, killing a million people, wasting $3 trillion, and creating 5 million refugees? An enthusiastic, HELL YES!
yep. the obama plan was to bankrupt our country. i'm not talking about the obama zombies that can support without using their mush brains. i'm talking obama. he's a smart guy that got the ultimate revenge on america by putting us in a debt we won't be able to work off.
Honestly, I think anyone who can still stick up for Obama at this point is either ignorant or mentally retarded. And living in massachusetts, I know plenty of people fall under both those categories.
The REAL Problem has not happened YET that is when it come time to pay taxes or make house (food, medical) payments. People will start adjusting their w-2's and having less taken out. Then a tax bill they can't pay.
No body has talked about that yet, but it's coming like a tidal wave. This is the real effect of the 9/11 attacks. Then we are finnished. It is going to happen.
Gobble gobble chew cheww dude....Send me all the money you don't use. I'm trying to find the cash to PAY MY DAMN TAXES!! You see after food and the roof, and taxes and more taxes....what money is left? Im a POOR over taxed sob.
I still love this guy! Anyways, the next Ronald Reagan is coming soon, so get warmed up, and be ready to make that cash! ALRIGHT! I can't wait. 2012! Yep, I don't see how even with the media in his pocket....this guy could possibly win another election......WELL MAYBE in Kenya or something.
I cant believe you dont understand that life has nothing to do with money...do you get that. My woman told me she would stay with me weather I was poor or rich.....she is light years ahead of you. You have none of the qualities that people look for in a relationship.....NOTHING
It's hard to live a long and happy life without any money. Buying the basic necessities of life becomes impossible when you have zero purchasing power, much less getting anything above and beyond that.
I hope 'your lady' has a good job. Bet she bought your computer for you. And "weather" is the stuff outside. You know, wind, rain, snow, global warming and ozone holes. It is about the money. Everything is and always has been about the money. Being rich is not a sin. It's not evil. In fact it's quite nice. I only hope you'll find out someday. WARNING! ONCE YOU GO 'FAT CAT' YOU NEVER GO BACK!
I own my own business for the last 7 years, the money is good. My woman is in education and there is no work for her in California. So lets be clear about something since you think you know something........money has brought no joy to our realtionship...it has contributed nothing at all. Whether I make a million or two bucks she would leave me in a heart beat if their was no love.
Its easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich person to get to heaven.
good going your brilliant at economics and brilliant at being a complete waste of human life... You remind me of the Borg. A mindless drone zombie that has one thing to offer.... "its all about the money Lebowski". but your young dumb and full of cum. Ive seen your kind before its the oldest story every written.......Gear up for suit and tie gay bathroom fun....thats the only people you will attract. You would be perfect for some giant evil corporation. I can see you now working for Haliburton.
President Obama said Friday he would nominate Robert Hormats, a vice chairman of Goldman Sachs International, to a top economic position at the State Department.
i can't believe it's been almost a day and htww still hasn't answered my question. so i'll repeat it again. htww, since you're such an expert on climate change, would you be willing to have a discussion with greenman3610 on the subject?
NONSESE. The 23-25 trillion figure is ONLY a potential cost if all goes to hell. It's a doomsday figure, meaning if all the FDIC backed banks go belly-up, if all government backed mortgages defaulted.
The real cost of the bailout is a far smaller, but nevertheless substantial, 3 trillion dollars.
Wow, HTWW! Not only do you continue to state headlines as facts (without reading the articles), but now you MODIFY the fucking headlines when they aren't dismal enough for you. That and continuing to use Hot Air blogs as a credible source confirms you're nothing more than a lobotomized piece of shit.
I wish you weren't always cynical in your videos. It wears on a guy. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan, you're obviously intelligent and informed, I agree with you a great amount of the time, but I think I'd get the picture if your focus was on just being informative, you know? That way, you *would* be my major source of current events.
Global warming is a cycle, it has NOTHING to do with pollution. I am against pollution, but that is a garbage disposal issue more than science.
As far as bailouts, its just liberals taking money from working folks and giving it to the ones who "prefer not to" work. Trick is the liberals use the handouts to get votes. FYI, 90 percent of blacks voted for obama
Global Warming fantasies that the earth is becoming one giant microwave heated up by man"s pernicious and insatiable industrial development is of course ridiculous. The only consensus
that exists on climate change is that if you believe anything the UN or Al Gore says, you are probably a moron
The intelligence and morality of Democrat politics never rises above that of carbon residue. No wonder they're so obsessed with the stuff.
If people can believe that government functionaries can control the weather twenty years out, then they will believe ANYTHING. The name for such thin-minded dolts is DemocRAT. Theirs is a political theology, and as toxic as that of Islamic fascism. Too bad NEITHER can separate "church from state".
Yeah because my objection to him e-begging is totally because of politics. It couldn't have anything to do with the fact that I think begging strangers for money on the internet makes someone a piece of shit or anything.... nope totally politics because it has to be one or the other.
ummm... riiiiight..... there's a slight difference between what HTWW is doing and "e-begging". He's asking for donations from those who approve of and enjoy the service he is providing.. oh wait... nah, that sounds to much like capitalism, that can't be right... =P
This was awesome! One of your best ones to date! You are one of the few who does a superb job editing out your fluff and keeping to the points. I try and do the same on my videos, although I don't HD quality yet.
Obama's change is great! America is burning! About time. Come on americans, you didn't think you would last forever? Wait you do, because most of you are arrogant and ignorant.
I don't think the states will last forever. In the next few decades it will probably deteriorate to the point that it is on par with former empires like the UK or countries that never mattered like Norway.
99% of people, including most all the creators and cheerleaders of bailouts, are against the $23 T bailout. The reason is simple, because it only "costs" that much if there's a massive collapse. It's all including guarantees, so getting stuck with the whole tab would be the least of our problems.
Not how it works! How can you make these blanket statements like '80% of American people against bailouts'? Then you say $23 T cost. Well, people didn't understand TARP $800B or whatever combination the 'bailout 80% poll' was about. The claim was made by Bush/Paulson that disaster was the altnernative. So they went along with bailouts.
I'm just supporting an honest assesment of what the debate is. I have also been aware of the rising total cost *possibility*, which has been around $9T to now $23T or whatever. But my point is that nobody is claiming to support laying guarantees on $23T and having to pay for it in a collapse anyway. For example, they increase the FDIC guarantee from 100k to 250k to avoid having to pay for the 100k collapse, but paying for a 250k collapse is not the idea.
Well, its official, our country is going bankrupt while our "Elected" officials are writing more checks than there are paper dollars and they could care less. Protesting doesnt work, electing new people doesnt work (See Obama) Same shit different day. So, what is left? Our rights to our own decisions are being taken away so what do we do? We dont have the time to wait for another election cycle. I would suggest, buy essetials, food, water, solar panels, seeds, tools and guns and ammunition.
Neither Bush nor Obama are entirely to blame. America is not a dictatorship and so while the president probably takes the largest chunk of responsibility, they cannot be blamed 100%. Just sayin'
To tell you the truth..I dont know what to think about Global Warming...it probably is happening because supposedly the earth has warmed 1 degree...but what I do know is that if global warming is real..then humans probably account for less than 1/3 of it...the other two thirds is natural..
It seems like America isn't concerned about being #1 anymore... all we focus on is trying to survive the policies of our corrupt politians. We need another Ronald Reagan..BADLY!
GW is nothing more than a power grab!! The argument is over a 3 degree range. If these evolutionist really believe in millions of years, then why is less then 100 years of measuring global temperature so scary? Should we not have several hundred years at least to see what large cyclical movements there may be?
Also. Where do animals go when it gets cold? Where do humans travel to? Yup, warmer climate. So I say, pump up the heat three or so degrees and life will spawn quicker and live happier.
Global Warming fantasies that the earth is becoming one giant microwave heated up by man"s pernicious and insatiable industrial development is of course ridiculous. The only consensus
that exists on climate change is that if you believe anything the UN or Al Gore says, you are probably a moron

This comment has received too many negative votesshow
well, i could go on publicly embarrassing people like you and htww all day, but then i'd miss the simpsons. keep me posted if he answers my question about if he's willing to debate greenman3610. shoot me an email just in case i miss it.
and if he's gonna continue spinning the news and flat out lying, then i'm gonna call him on it, just the same as i would call out some bible thumper who wants to claim prophecy is coming true. if he's gonna be making such moronic statement, he should be ready to back them up. thus far, he hasn't.
and no, i'm not proselytizing. i'm only calling out this dipshit, because he can't seem to go more than a week without denying man-made climate change. if he's so certain that it's all a hoax, he should have no problem holding his own in a debate. i'm calling him out.
well, you did just call him a "dipshit", so I wouldn't respond to you either. I only did because I wanted to call you a douche bag, and I just did, so, later douche bag!
ohhhh... so that explains why he ignored the numerous comments i made to him before i called him a dipshit. he must've known i was going to call him a dipshit and therefore, ignored all my comments because he knew the insult was coming. yeah, that's it. that's the ticket. you're an idiot.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ok, i'm only gonna ask this one more time. to htww, would you be willing to debate greenman3610 on the subject of global warming. i imagine you'll eventually stumble upon this message. so if i'm not around, you can send me an email. how about it?
It became 23 Trillion because we are not in control of our money anymore. Any wealth we had left was taken by international bankers in coordination with the Federal Reserve (which is a private bank, not a governmental entity). It was justified with the housing and credit bubbles. All a scam. We got duped.
S.I. Rasool, James Hansen, IPCC, then the structure set up by the UN before they had proof either way to TAX countries...common sense says to me get a true workable sources that are good enough to start implementing then expand, taxing before you do what is best is a waste of money, labor and time for little to no gain.
perhaps if you worked harder on basic grammar rules, you know, following up the subject of your sentence with a verb, then i might have better luck decyphering whatever message you were trying to get across.
Topic at hand would take much longer than 500. any dumb ass knows better drone. You counted? so you really do not know anything do you? How about you put your lips around my exhaust pipe to test global warming?
it's called word count, moron. it takes two seconds to use on a computer.
drone? moi? i read every article he posted in stead of just listening to his idiotic spin on each subject. you on the hand believed everything he said, and you call me the drone? that's rich man!!!
see, this is the problem i have with petitions like project petition and dissent from darwin. they rely ignorance. they know that when most people hear something like, "over 31000 scientists deny man-made climate change." they won't even question it. they conflate the general term scientist with people who specialize in a specific field of science which is relevant to climate study. don't you feel that's the slightest bit misleading?
Man made global warming is a fake enviromentalists way to bring about global government. Tax rich countries to build up poor countries. Global warming science shoots itself up and all anyone seems to talk about is the early 2000's weather. Trends were forced down our throats that appear now to be a LIE, and now we find out the same nuts who claim to be able to fix it are responsible for making it worse? This would be like paying a mechanic to make your car run worse.
what are you talking about? this must be in reference to the article htww mentioned when he said the replacements for cfc's are contributing to global warming. if you actually read the article in the washington post, it gives you a better idea about the severity of the problem.
"They now account for about 2 percent of the climate-warming power of U.S. emissions, according to the Environmental Protection Agency."
That is still far less than carbon dioxide, which is produced by burning fossil fuels and accounts for about 85 percent of the problem. And it is less than the roughly 10 percent of warming from methane, which comes from sources including farm animals and decomposing trash.
in other words, the replacements do contribute to global warming, but their contribution is minimal. now, for people who actually concerned this sort of thing, it is important to find a replacement for the replacements. that's just common sense. if we know something is a problem and we have the means to fix it, why shouldn't we?
How long has the Earth been cooling? Why can't we revamp our energy systems the same way we did in the I.T. revolution?
Why do grubby socialists want to dumb down the world in every way known to man kind to make a fake utopia? Taxation without representation mean anything? Forgive me if i do not believe hacks that have been proven not only to be wrong, but also bastardizing science and debate, while at the same time trying to control findings and information released to the public.
I wonder if he 'couldn't make up' the number 23 trillion dollars. I'd like to laugh at this video but I can't seem to lift my jaw off the floor after hearing this bs.
Peter Schiff and Gerald Celente are absolutely on the mark.
Ask...what's behind the dollar? Answer: Nothing it's just green toilet paper.
Citizens are? trying to audit the Federal Reserve here because they seem to be printing currency like water with no approval/oversight from Government and just pumping them out.
Pretty soon it's going to be like Zimbabwe money, completely worthless.
Smart Americans are changing out fiat currency for gold and silver
the 23 trillion number is hilarious. the article he sourced says the following.
"For the government to be on the hook for the total amount, worst-case scenarios would have to come to pass in a variety of federal programs, which is unlikely, says Neil Barofsky..."
so how does one go from an article saying something is unlikely, to claiming it's a certainty. easy. if you're htww, you just lie and hope nobody will notice.
Lying would also be claiming that the people on the dissent from darwinism list aren't scientists even though they have graduated from the finest universities in the world or saying that climate change must be man made just 'cuz 'cuz.
i didn't make the claim that the people on the dissent from darwin list aren't scientists. however, if you look over the list, you'll see the vast majority of the "scientists" have no business commenting on evolution. furthermore, many people who's names appeared on the list, admit to being tricked into signing the petition, and some didn't even know they were on it and requested to be removed. see donexodus2's video list of scientists rejecting evolution. it's a good watch.
What determines wether or not a person is a scientist that can "comment on evolution" anyway? If you want to say they all have to be biologists then you can ALSO throw out most of the "scientists" on the project steve list as well.
yes, having an advanced degree in a field of biological sciences is a good starting point. and i didn't mention project steve. i think petitioning people for whether or not they accept a scientific theory is a lousy way of proving whether or not that theory has any validity. for a theory to be valid, you should be able to test it, and asking people whether they accept it is a very poor test.
now, as for the petition project, a list of "scientists" who deny man-made climate change, they go a step beyond the tactics used by the people at the discovery institute. at least dissent from darwin petition listed their scientists degrees, the project petition website didn't even do that. so it's nearly impossible to go through it name by name and discredit each one of them.
"SO it's nearly impossible to go through it name by name and DISCREDIT each one of them" In other words, if they don't agree with whatever it is you say they can't be "real scientists" right? So then they need to be discredited! How is that even about science then? You just believe what you believe and no one will tell you otherwise.
no. the list consists of over 31,000 names without any indication of what degree they have, or where they got their degree. furthermore, their basis for what constitutes a scientist is pretty flimsy. technically, anyone with a science degree is a scientist. that means you could take someone with a bachelors in mathetics from liberty university, and technically, he or she is a scientist. do you really believe they know enough about climatology to comment on it?
I honestly don't know about this list but what I do know is that common sense and numbers dictate that at least SOME of the "real scientists" (whatever you define that as) in this world disagree with man made climate change simply because it is in the nature of science to question things. Deciding which scientists are really qualified and which ones aren't seems to be a matter of opinion. Besides, we shouldn't pollute the environment regardless of climate change.
hehe. This will be fun to watch in 30 years.

You haven't read a word of anything have you? Economic cycles are as natural as the weather cycle itself. Everything you know works cyclically. We are never going to be rid of these "global economic\social crisis".
That being said, you've never seen unadulterated capitalism. The question I pose is this, how much of what we know to have went wrong, would have happened had we a Government limited to the role defined by the constitution?

As we watch the social and economic devastation that capitalism spreads in its wake across the globe the time has come for some serious truth telling, starting with the stark truth that unbridled capitalism is a disastrous failure.

`It's the end of an era,'' said Shanghai-based Andy Xie, a independent analyst who was formerly Morgan Stanley's chief Asia economist. ``In 1989, when the Berlin Wall fell, socialism was discredited and the whole world turned right. Now financial capital has been discredited and the whole world, including the U.S., is turning left.''

Unfortunately you're correct, but again, SO WHAT? A Free Market didn't cause our current fiasco. Government did. It doesn't take much time on open secrets(.org) to see that our politicians are in bed with the companies that caused this mess. Oddly enough, they support those who want more Government regulation (Dems), hmm. I wonder why they support Dems, who "hate" big business. Could it be? Could they be trying to corner the Government racket?

LIMIT GOVERNMENT
both the global economy and the modern governments everywhere on earth are the derivative from a global economical system we are all part of. The real cause is not the government\economy but the failed economical system. the monetary capitalism if you like. It was build to fail because nothing can grow exponentially. The failure was inevitable. All we can do now is to get over it by surviving the economic collapse and then build a new economic system that works better. imo

Excuse me but talking FAST doesn't mean the statements are true! You state that since "capitalism" came to India "poverty has been cut in half"? VOA says;Multinationals are expanding furiously in India, not only to tap the growing consumer market, but also to use it as a manufacturing base and to harness the skills of its engineers and technocrats.
But the economic boom has NOT trickled down to the poorest communities, and tens of millions of people still live on less than $1 a day".???
moob744 2 years ago
Look at a "standard of living" (Income, etc.) of any industrialized country you want. Look before and after their "modernization" periods. You acknowledge there's a "growing consumer market"... Do you see no connection between Business, Investment, growing MARKET S, a manufacturing base emerging, and an increase in the standard of living.

We have created a global culture that values money and materialism over life itself. In our pursuit of money we have given the institutions of money -- banks, investment houses, financial markets, and publicly traded corporations -- the power to rule over life.Recognizing only financial values, accountable only for money's replication, and wholly unmindful of the needs of life, these institutions are wantonly destroying life to make money. It's a bad bargain.

99% of people, including most all the creators and cheerleaders of bailouts, are against the $23 T bailout. The reason is simple, because it only "costs" that much if there's a massive collapse. It's all including guarantees, so getting stuck with the whole tab would be the least of our problems.
YankeeGlacier 2 years ago
Not how it works! How can you make these blanket statements like '80% of American people against bailouts'? Then you say $23 T cost. Well, people didn't understand TARP $800B or whatever combination the 'bailout 80% poll' was about. The claim was made by Bush/Paulson that disaster was the altnernative. So they went along with bailouts.

luckyvet 2 years ago
I'm just supporting an honest assesment of what the debate is. I have also been aware of the rising total cost *possibility*, which has been around $9T to now $23T or whatever. But my point is that nobody is claiming to support laying guarantees on $23T and having to pay for it in a collapse anyway. For example, they increase the FDIC guarantee from 100k to 250k to avoid having to pay for the 100k collapse, but paying for a 250k collapse is not the idea.

what are you talking about? this must be in reference to the article htww mentioned when he said the replacements for cfc's are contributing to global warming. if you actually read the article in the washington post, it gives you a better idea about the severity of the problem.
"They now account for about 2 percent of the climate-warming power of U.S. emissions, according to the Environmental Protection Agency."
urwronganduknowit 2 years ago 4
That is still far less than carbon dioxide, which is produced by burning fossil fuels and accounts for about 85 percent of the problem. And it is less than the roughly 10 percent of warming from methane, which comes from sources including farm animals and decomposing trash.
urwronganduknowit 2 years ago 3
in other words, the replacements do contribute to global warming, but their contribution is minimal. now, for people who actually concerned this sort of thing, it is important to find a replacement for the replacements. that's just common sense. if we know something is a problem and we have the means to fix it, why shouldn't we?

yes, having an advanced degree in a field of biological sciences is a good starting point. and i didn't mention project steve. i think petitioning people for whether or not they accept a scientific theory is a lousy way of proving whether or not that theory has any validity. for a theory to be valid, you should be able to test it, and asking people whether they accept it is a very poor test.

now, as for the petition project, a list of "scientists" who deny man-made climate change, they go a step beyond the tactics used by the people at the discovery institute. at least dissent from darwin petition listed their scientists degrees, the project petition website didn't even do that. so it's nearly impossible to go through it name by name and discredit each one of them.

"SO it's nearly impossible to go through it name by name and DISCREDIT each one of them" In other words, if they don't agree with whatever it is you say they can't be "real scientists" right? So then they need to be discredited! How is that even about science then? You just believe what you believe and no one will tell you otherwise.

no. the list consists of over 31,000 names without any indication of what degree they have, or where they got their degree. furthermore, their basis for what constitutes a scientist is pretty flimsy. technically, anyone with a science degree is a scientist. that means you could take someone with a bachelors in mathetics from liberty university, and technically, he or she is a scientist. do you really believe they know enough about climatology to comment on it?

I honestly don't know about this list but what I do know is that common sense and numbers dictate that at least SOME of the "real scientists" (whatever you define that as) in this world disagree with man made climate change simply because it is in the nature of science to question things. Deciding which scientists are really qualified and which ones aren't seems to be a matter of opinion. Besides, we shouldn't pollute the environment regardless of climate change.

"Deciding which scientists are really qualified and which ones aren't seems to be a matter of opinion."
are you serious? would you trust an ornathologist to tell you you need heart surgery?
