Shell and Exxon knew that climate change was real as far back as the 70s.
They've been paying for propaganda to prevent anyone addressing it ever since.

I really don't get the fuss about Thunberg. She seems to upset people a lot for very little reason.
People endlessly slag her off, but rarely address anything that she's actually talking about. They just rage.
Is she doing anything new? No. So why the explosive reaction?

She does seem to trigger a massive insecurity in some people.

Like you say, if you have a problem with it, challenge what she's saying and let's see the evidence to the contrary.
 
Are you more concerned with the precise date or the substantive evidence that Arctic ice is melting ?

Genuine question.
Why are you directing all your questions at me ?


Are you aware that the agreed position on climate change in the 1970s was that we would be heading for an ice age by 2000 ?


As others pointed out humans are ****ing up the planet and we should limit the use of fossil fuels and plastic.

The politics behind the Green new deal is all about a power grab , climate taxation that doesn't get spent on eco projects and Globalism.

Using a mentally Ill child to push the agenda is extremely cynical.

We need to have the debate with experts not emotionally charged kids.

Poor wee Spazzy girl being exploited by people or peoples unknown. I mean, everyone knows that spassie girls cant think for themselves.

She should just be locked up in a special home with people of her ilk tbh.

Emm the experts have been telling you for years that global warming is real and what needs to be done to curtail it.

You think that's just scare stories part of a global "power grab"

So what experts do you want to debate with?

Just responding to your comments Dunc.

Some recording in the decades leading up to the 70's that were for a cooling planet, but they were quickly replaced with the global warming model once the evidence gathered to the contrary.

The facts are that in 1970, there were around 6 times as many scientists predicting a warming rather than cooling planet.
 
Its ****ing embarrassing a child being allowed to howl at senior world politicians.

It really is pathetic and highlights the state of western politics atm.

Politics really is horrid atm.

It is embarrassing that a child is in this position due to the inaction from senior world politicians.
 
Go on then Pisk. <laugh>

<laugh>

I'm doing some things to try and take action. It's small scale of course, but my opinion is that if everybody makes small changes then collectively it makes a big difference.

You are not a climate scientist you know about as much as anyone what will happen in the future , so don't waste your time telling me I stole your childhood and I should be ashamed.

Unless Greta is going to sail to China and tell them to stop making things or driving cars then I can't see much point in yelling at UN delegates.

You could reduce your carbon footprint by never attending Arsenal games. <party>

I'm not a climate scientist you're right. I am reading what the climate scientists are saying though. Until I see some evidence that they are wrong, then I think we need to act on what they are predicting.
