I think it would be better if climate change wasn't involved in politics.

@adhane05 Its unavoidable. If you a serious about tackling it then it needs huge changes to the economy and also our consumption patterns.

That's for the solutions. As of the analysis, that should be a science issue.

@Burnley123 When have politicians ever been know for solving world problems? It seems to me everything the government touches becomes significantly worse. They can tell you straight to your face climate change is a serious problem, but they most likely could care less.

WW2
The Great Recession of the 1930s

preventing a repeat of the Great Fire of London.
Abolishing slavery.

I could do that all night. Politics is the only answer

@HoraceGreenley You're not a History major.😜

@Burnley123 I never said I was.
Burnley123 · 41-45, M
@HoraceGreenley No you are a Science major and that makes it even worse.

@Burnley123 It means I am a skeptic who is not lead around by their nose.

I don't believe in Global Warming because I believe in science
Burnley123 · 41-45, M
@HoraceGreenley So all those other people don't believe in Science. I kind of agree with Pheric in that you don't seem to have much scientific knowledge. You just posted memes about this issue and no data. My degree is history and sociology.

Your claim could be true, but I'm a skeptic.

@Burnley123 Believe whatever you wish. As I told your friend, I'm not playing this game of, "I'm right, you're wrong, so prove to me I'm right."

@Burnley123 had no idea you are a mind reader.
Burnley123 · 41-45, M
@HoraceGreenley It's not mind reading but rational judgement based on observable data.
