What's the doomesday clock say now Glitch?

A historical example showing completely otherwise:

Well since I wrote that 8 days ago, so it's 933 days now.

933 bottles of beer on the wall, take one down, pass it around …..

It's the end of the world as we know it...

That's 2.5 good years at least. Turn that frown upside down Glitch

Here's a thought. I know there are people who can literally suck all the air out of a room. That doesn't mean they leave CO2, behind, presumably it's vacuum. Solution?

We might need more Trump. Bigly. /sarcasm

I know. I was just joking about deploying Trumps to absorb greenhouse gases.

Nah, they release too much hot air

I find it funny that some people seem to believe that we could burn fossil fuels with reckless abandon for a couple hundred years and the emissions from doing so aren't expected to impact anything.. it's all just a natural cycle of the Earth and humans haven't accelerated anything at all by amping up greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to levels not seen for a Million years. Okay, googley eyes.

Going green is plunging parts of Europe into further economic decline. The UK and France are going to experience a bleak heatless winter.

I agree the transition is going to be painful. The rich will weather the global storm but the poor might be hit by rising energy and fuel prices as investment in this sector is being cut back.

So they're passing off the results of a bad plan based on a false premise as a difficult transition. Clever.

UK - yes; France - no, they have plenty of nuclear energy to run through this. The most screwed are Germany as their primary fuel supplier turned out, to say the least, unreliable. German policy on it was generally bizarre, closing nuclear plants and opening natural gas plants, wtf?

But this has exactly nothing to do with cutting emissions plans, quite the opposite - if these plans were more advanced and reliance on fossil fuels already reduced, the situation would have been better now.

I'm looking out my kitchen window right now and it's bright and sunny out, therefore it's impossible that there is flooding anywhere.

That's how stupid people sound when they say things like "Tide seems about as high as it's always been right here, ocean level can't be rising anywhere."
