Climate change is real and has been occurring for 4 billion years. So which climate do you want? The little Ice age climate of 1600 to 1850? The medieval warm period, when agriculture flourished in Greenland? or maybe the subboreal period of the current interglacial (around 3500-300 BCE) when the temperature was around 5 F tighter than the present with CO2 around 20% lower than at present.

So what "industrial activity" cause the change of over 10F between about 12000 BCE and 3500BCE.

What industrial activity caused the end of the medieval mini-ice age.

The IPCC itself acknowledges that finding direct correlations between human activity and the small increase in global average temperatures between 1970 and 1998 is difficult. (Remember correlation is not causation)

And note that any significant upward movement in the global temperature (itself a very complex thing to ascertain) stropped around 2000.

Most of the idiot children demonstrating last Friday have lived through a period of temperature stability. They have been utterly brainwashed to believe the opposite.

@CarolineP See this is why I’d rather listen to experts over this issue who’ve done their research. Rather than some stranger who doesn’t know what she’s talking about and calls children idiots for being concerned about climate change and how it could affect them in the future, while you won’t have to deal with it since you’ll be dead by then.

@SW-User When you refer to idiots, I suggest to look in the nearest mirror, rather than indulge in infantile misrepresentation. I happen to be an expert, with a PhD in atmospheric physics. The great majority of"experts" all agree climate changes. All agree that in the last 170 years, the climate has warmed by around 1 degree C. The majority suspect that a small portion of the increase post 1945 may have an anthropogenic cause. A few extremists, whole salary depends on producing catasrofarian outcomes, suggest - without any evidence, that human CO2 emissions are wholly responsible. Their claims are clearly debunked by the reality that there has been no statistically provable increase in global temperatures for the last two decades, whilst CO2 has clearly increased. There forecasts are based purely on computer modelling, and wholly unsupported empirically. Not a single forecast made in the last 40 years has ever come to pass.

This is not an argument against sensible conservation and environmental responsibility. It is merely pointing out the scientific facts, rather than the quasi-religious doom-mongering of a mentally challenged, under-educated swedish teenager and her ideological puppet masters.

“I happen to be an expert, with a PhD in atmospheric physics.”

Yeah, sure you do.

I thought you were going to say it doesn't exist - that would be controversial!

Stop with the truth already.
How is that controversial? It just seems like a widely accepted idea.

I feel like that is gonna be the end of the world
