We need a scientific debate with a team of real scientists on both sides. I also want to hear from those who are in the know about man-made weather manipulation that we've had available to us since the 1950s.

[@iggles73]

A debate was set up, with the mediator there, the crowd, the 3 scientists who say it's a hoax, but the climate crisis "experts" didn't show. 1600 scientists, and weather experts signed a declaration saying climate change is a hoax. The govt sent 4 experts to a senate hearing and a senator asked them how much co2 is in the atmosphere. They played it off like the price is right. The first said 7%, 2nd 5%, 3rd 6%, the 4th asked what the guy with the highest said, then said 8%. The senator then told them "there's .4% of co2 in the Atmosphere, and if it drops to .2 we start losing plant life.". They want to lower the amount of co2, which in turn will help part of their agenda, control all food, which in turn leads to depopulation.

[@SquareNoggin]

Thomas Massie is definitely one of the most valuable congressmen. I can forgive him for being a libertarian - he's a better friend to conservatives and right thinking people than almost anybody in the legislature. I really wish conservatives in particular would press the climate change issue more aggressively. People underestimate the degree to which this global campaign is deleterious to humanity broadly; as well as how simple it is to poke holes in. The axioms of their whole theory are incredibly weak and weaker than ever, and to most people it's intuitive on it's face that it's a scam. It takes a sustained barrage of propaganda and the proactive suppression of any dissent to maintain their narrative on this one. For a long time people who haven't been taking the climate cult seriously enough haven't really internalized how much they'll be made to sacrifice personally atthe altar of climate change - and now that this realization is setting in I hope people take the time to scrutinize the claims made by climate change zealots more skeptically. Their beliefs are shockingly baseless. That's why places like Canada and the UK have seen movement to treat "climate denialism" as a criminal offense. It's a house of cards. The only reason it can even be argued that it's the "fiduciary responsibility" of these firms to implement ESG in their companies is because the global oligopolies and various governments will strong arm any corporations that don't play ball. This is obviously the sort of thing that calls for top down political action to rectify and I pray Republicans and the public start to take this issue more seriously and break up the cabals that are inflicting this madness onto us. In short; CO2 emissions aren't nearly as bad as we've been made to believe (orders of magnitude less bad, actually), their impact on global climate trends is dramatically overstated, the policies and industry overhauls these people are implementing are not only themselves catastrophic but profoundly unjust, and all of this is very straightforward to prove to anybody that's not completely brainwashed. This should be way more of a controversial and politically charged issue than it is IMO.

[@stephanieconley3234]

which one are you talking about

[@broark88]

1:49:43 Naturally, Republicans can't hold a hearing or have any kind of concerns whatever without a Democrat impugning their motives or apologizing for the embarrassment. The reality is that fossil fuels not only made industrialization possible but are essential inputs to industries that sustain the lives of billions of people. Divestment from energy production is an extremely serious matter, to say the least; it is literally a life or death matter. The potential effects of climate change, including changes to weather patterns, air and ocean currents, sea levels, and storm frequency are broadly manageable through technology. The choice presented - between continuing emissions toward climate disaster, or reducing emissions toward humanitarian disaster - is a false one. We know as an indisputable fact that billions of human beings alive today would be dead in a matter of months if all of a sudden humanity stopped using fossil fuels; transitional duration is merely an attempt at scaling the degree of harm. Then, we don't really know what impact such a change would have on the climate. Perhaps it would reduce the average global temperature; perhaps it would make crops harder to grow; perhaps it would make no difference at all. Alternatively, perhaps the diminishing effect of the greenhouse gasses at higher concentrations and the sequestration capacity of the earth's biosphere mean our use of fossil fuels has a negligible impact with respect to earths own natural cycles. The science is simply no where near as settled as it would need to be to seriously contemplate transforming economies to the certain and unavoidable detriment to humanity.

I followed this case very closely from the second the breaking news interupted the song on the radio. Watched the news feeds over and over. And things didn't add up watching msm loop the videos. And watched all the questions/ anomolies in video that AJ and others produced. None of those questions was ever Answered. You used to be able to view all the anomly questioning vids on yt. Of course they removed them. One boys picture victim of sh. Was the same picture of a boy that was an alledged victim of the mass school stabbing in another country shortly after. How the same people played two different parts. Swat team guy played a greaving parent also. The one greaving parent was laughing his buttoff seconds prior to going in front of the news cameras were he was magicaly in 0 to 60 seconds was a horribly grieving parent. Not to mention the photo of the much older groupe of kids that was taken at a football game a year later that early matched what looked like an older version of the victims. With questions of the school even being open . Grass growing in the cracks of the asphalt. No trash dumpster on property. The news showing the AR in landsas trunk and saying he used a hand gun. Then it morphing into banning AR's because that is what he used . The chief coroner was the spitting image of a former WHO president. All these questions and more. Never addressed. Was one roomer that shawn astin production company provided crisis actors and that patty duke even played a chracature in it. And at the time the video questions were very conviencing something was rotten in demark.i would like those anomolies adressed. But of course they never will be . And if you question the official narriative. You are a criminal. Im questioning to this day. Not saying it is true or not. Just questioning the official narriative.
