Jonathon Porritt, giving the 2nd annual memorial lecture for friend and mentor Richard Sandbrook, begins his speech with some poignant remarks about climate change.
@squamish4244 I'm just pointing out that you 'believe' in global warming. There's people that believe in intelligent design who think they can back it up with science.
The point is, who's science is right? The science you're listening to, or the science I'm listening to? Science is like religion. These days, you can pick and choose which one is right in your mind. But is the one you pick the absolute truth? You don't fucking know.
@hereticrick5 The scientists involved were cleared of any professional wrongdoing by an investigative body a few months later. What is more believable, thousands of scientists with an unclear motive and the ability to fake data from thousands of studies consistently over 20 years, or large companies with a great deal to lose if an effort is made to cap their polluting activities funding a handful of skeptics to confuse the issue, therefore ensuring nothing gets done? Stop watching Fox News.
Lord Porritt: Google "UK population must fall to 30m, says Porritt". and "Hacked E-Mail Is New Fodder for Climate Dispute". The elite Porritt represents has a very dark agenda.

@mystrywaryr Science = truth, right? When an engineer calculates how much weight a bridge will bear, you believe in the truth of that, right?

@squamish4244 And I can believe in fairies if I wanted to. But is that the truth.....?

@guydecervens Did you watch the second video, where he rejects the doomsday approach to climate change predictions?

Global warming is a lie. You sick bastards are using the environment to push your agandas.
People are aware.
You can't fool us anymore.
