Is climate change a hoax

Conservatives claims so then why is it a hoax is it becuase conservatives been spoonfed it on conservative media rather than understaindg the acutal science since conservatives look down on booklearning and thus strongly misstrust science in general.

The AGW crowd are the ones who are indoctrinated. Every prediction by the 'science' has not happened in the timeframe it was said to happen and in fact it has not happened at all. Contrary to the AGW mindset the earth is not fragile. It is extremely robust with all kinds of negative feedbacks built in. Were it any other way the earth would not support life. Just as an example. There is no evidence from past history that increased CO2 causes warming. CO2 is now said to be around 400 PPM. Not that long ago it was over 1200 ppm and then the earth entered an ice age. Another point is that no one can define what is the ideal we should be aiming for. Kind of like the old codger pining for the days of his childhood because those were the days. The earth is constantly going through change and the climate is no different. We have in written history observed warm periods where everything flourished and we have seen cold periods where everything suffered. Where my house is situated there was a glacier a few thousand years ago. It was said to be a mile thick. There are huge eskers to the south of me that the glacier formed. So which is better a bit warmer or colder? Status quo is not an option.
