I'm all for a greater respect/reverence for the earth...for nature.....but that should not be conflated with the belief that climate change is itself, per se, a problem that requires solving.
While one camp of scientists hold the view that the earth is warming and this is due to specific things humans are doing and this is a problem for which very specific measures must be put in place, there is another camp of equally educated and qualified scientists who disagree. And it's funny because for my entire life, the latter camp is the one I've sided with, regardless of political affiliation.
An interesting article below;
Climate Change is not a problem: Unless we make it one.

I know Chopra is one of your fave teachers. Have you heard his take on Covid vaccines? I'd be curious to hear your opinion.

What's your take on the shutdown of the Keystone pipeline? |

What's your take on the shutdown of the Keystone pipeline? A ridiculous, politically based, grandstanding move on the part of Biden and his cronies, that does not have logic at its basis. The pipeline has already been built from Canada over the border.....huge job losses on both sides of the border.

You know what? The first time I came upon an article about Climate Change was in 1968... |

You know what? The first time I came upon an article about Climate Change was in 1968... And lemme guess, it came with a dire warning that the world is in peril and we won't live to see 1980 if we don't take dire measures...?  |

Yer siggy is pretty silly. What is it you think I'm not getting my way about? I've got access to a forum where I'm having conversations about a subject that interests me....you could say it's the perfect blend of views that align but that still inform and views that don't align but that provide the juxtaposing launch-pad for expansion of the subject. Hey, in terms of what's going on on this forum at present, I'm getting "my way" quite nicely, thanks.  |

50 years of failed doomsday, eco-pocalyptic predictions; the so-called ‘experts’ are 0-50
"Modern doomsayers have been predicting climate and environmental disaster since the 1960s. They continue to do so today. None of the apocalyptic predictions with due dates as of today have come true. What follows is a collection of notably wild predictions from notable people in government and science.
More than merely spotlighting the failed predictions, this collection shows that the makers of failed apocalyptic predictions often are individuals holding respected positions in government and science. While such predictions have been and continue to be enthusiastically reported by a media eager for sensational headlines, the failures are typically not revisited."

The autobiographical one you posted. The "Here comes da judge" post I have no idea what you're talking about it. Why not just post the quote? |
