      @Anti-fascist America, the alternatives, however are still dangerous either to us, the environment, or both and this is when they're operating correctly. Fossil fuels release pollutants, solar power requires large plots that negatively impact the environment even if they don't have to cut down a lot of trees to open up the land, even wind, although less harmful than most, does have a negative effect on bird populations and is not helpful where there isn't much wind. I would argue that the effects of a nuclear power plant not operating properly is about as dangerous as many other energy sources operating as they should.

      "... Climate change Contrarians/Skeptics/Deniers often choose to spread Uncertainties/Misinformation/ & Doubt-filled but baseless questions, (It's Cosmic Rays, It's Ocean Currents, or any other infrequently heard of force/entity) , but the causes surrounding Global Warming Caused Climate Changes have been well-known by all science for a very long time now."
      -----> Over a Century in detail.
      “The narrative out there that scientists don’t know the cause of climate change is wrong,”
      The Claim:
      "That scientists don't know the degree to which Human/Industrial Activity influences Climate"! That is wrong.
      .
      Study lead author Benjamin Santer, an atmospheric scientist at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory said in a statement.
      .
      “We do!”
      The general mechanism is quite well understood!
      .
      We burn carbon-based fossil fuels. This process releases ancient stored carbon dioxide
      (and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere),
      which Resists, Traps & Redirects IR heat (which is attempting to escape to the cold of Space as a cooling effect for earth).
      There’s absolutely no doubt that the planet’s climate is getting hotter
      - decades’ worth of satellite & ground data clearly show
      .
      (Alexander von Humboldt coined the term and defined ' CLIMATE CHANGE ' in 1799)
      (Thomas Jefferson & John Adams discussed this changing climate from 1799 to 1804)
      (Science established human activities were causing these Global Climate Changes in 1811)
      .
      There’s Now Overwhelming evidence that points to human activity as the main culprit.
      While there are natural factors that can cause an equal and even greater impact, human activity is essentially a smoking gun here:
      the evidence indicates that all of this current global warming is caused by humans.
      .
      In this latest study,
      scientists carried out a statistical analysis of satellite climate data, identifying the anthropogenic fingerprints in climate change.
      .
      The analysis showed that humans are causing climate change to a confidence level of 5 sigma,
      the so-called gold standard of statistics
      - which translates a 99.9999% certainty.
      .
      In other words,
      there’s only a one-in-a-million chance that the pattern of atmospheric heating is not the result of human activity.
      .
      Science doesn’t really ever eliminate uncertainty - it just reduces it, and when the uncertainty reaches very low levels, then that’s essentially a scientific certainty.
      This isn’t the first study to strongly conclude that humans are causing climate change

    I'm happy for the Tufts University professor for being able to afford the solar panels, batteries, battery management systems, and labor required to take his large home off the grid. Doing so probably cost around $80k-$100k. The overall impact on the environment from his 1 home being taken off the grid will be so infinitesimally small, it would be virtually impossible to even measure. If anything, all he did was raise the demand for the rare earth elements required to build the solar panels and batteries, which is much worse than the impact would have been had he remained on the power grid.
    He _could_ have spent that $100k on building clean water wells in Africa, buying mosquito nets, providing housing for families, buying medicine for needy people, etc. Things that would have had a real, tangible, positive effect on the world. Instead, he chose to do something that only benefits himself, and pretty much just made himself _feel_ better.
    For all the grief liberals give conservatives about not following science, it's hard to find another group that bases their decisions and beliefs on feelings more than progressives and environmentalists.

      you can go off the grid for a mere $100,000 and the government will pay for half of that. and you'll save $3000 per year in utility bills. (not a good investment). 3 hours in a private jet will use more BTU's than that and you do not see hypocrits in the government curtailing any use of those.

      I mean, it's no coincidence that damn near every politician that spouts off about climate change and/or introduces legislation is set up to receive a big chunk of change because of it.
      It's also pretty telling that the big names of climate change preachers that pontificate to us plebs about our *_"carbon footprint"_* tour the globe in private jets, go yachting with middle-eastern oil moguls, take *RIDICULOUSLY* unnecessary helicopter rides, use private jets to pick up clothing and one or two people, etc.

    Here's some actual truth for everyone to swallow...
    The actual amount of co2 present in the atmosphere is about 0.04% on average (400ppm), to which humans contribute about 10%, the same as it was 70-80 years ago. Ideal co2 concentration for photosynthesis/plant growth is 1000-1200ppm (and it's an exponential increase, as greenhouses are about 1000% more efficient at food production than standard farming). For comparison, we're barely above the threshold for plants to even survive (the planet is no where near as "green" as it used to be), at 100-150ppm, photosynthesis could completely cease (no more oxygen production), everything but bacteria dies...
    In other words, co2 is so scarce that it has next to no actual greenhouse effect, the primary greenhouse gas is water vapor, which accounts for 4-5% of the atmosphere (40,000-50,000 ppm)
    And the ironic bit? The so called "experts" would have you believe that the sun (which has been "burning" hotter/generating more heat than usual in the last 3 or 4 decades), has no effect on the climate. Yep, that's right folks... that big bright fusion reactor in the sky that 1,000,000 earth's could fit inside of that provides all our our light and warmth has no effect on the weather...
    Does the climate change? sure... it's changed long before we were around, and will continue to do so long after we're gone. It's both arrogant and naïve to suggest than humankind has any kind of major impact on it, or that we can somehow change it to suit our whims. This planet has survived far worse than us; adapt or die is the name of the game.
    According to the "experts", the last Ice Age ended about 25,000 years ago? What ended it? I'm no climatologist, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't cave man coal plants...

    Important climate change story
    The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from the Consulate at Bergen, Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared. Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds. Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coast cities uninhabitable. I forgot to mention that this report was from November 2 , 1922, as reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post 100 years ago.

      1859-----Testing the Heat-Trapping Ability of Gases
      John Tyndall,
      a British physicist, tested the gases in the atmosphere to find out which are responsible for the greenhouse effect.
      He found that nitrogen and oxygen, which make up almost all of the atmosphere, cannot trap heat,
      but that three Very Potent Trace gases present in smaller quantities do:
      1. carbon dioxide,
      2. ozone, and
      3. water vapor.
      4. Tyndall speculated that if the amounts of these gases dropped, it would chill the Earth
      5. Conversely, if the amounts of these gases increased, it would WARM THE EARTH.
      6. And so, modern industry has, since the late 19th century, proven this science...increased GH gases = increased temps

      Dumping Toxic Waste:-----------EACH of the nation’s CLEANEST Killer Coal ELECTRIC GENERATION plants produce 140 million tons of HIGHLY TOXIC COAL ASH WASTE / Year, the toxic by-product that is left over after the coal is burned and Smoke is Scrubbed.

      .
      The public health hazards & environmental threats to nearby communities from unsafe coal ash dumping have been known for many DECADES, including increased risk of cancer, learning disabilities, neurological disorders, birth defects, reproductive failure, asthma (1 million new cases/yr.), and other illnesses.
      .
      Coal ash is not subject to federal supervision, and state laws governing coal combustion waste disposal are weak or nonexistent.

      The Hazards of Coal Ash FROM Electric Generation.
      Living near a wet coal ash storage pond is significantly more dangerous
      than smoking a pack of cigarettes a day, according to a risk assessment done by the EPA.
      The toxins found in coal ash have been linked to organ disease, cancer,
      respiratory illness, neurological damage, and developmental problems.
      .
      People living within one mile of unlined coal ash ponds can have a 1 in 50 risk of cancer
      -more than 2,000 times higher than what the EPA considers acceptable.
      .
      Coal ash contains arsenic, lead, mercury, and selenium, as well as aluminum, barium, boron, and chlorine.
      All can be toxic.
      Particularly where there is prolonged exposure,
      these toxins can
      cause cancer,
      heart damage,
      lung disease,
      respiratory distress,
      kidney disease,
      reproductive problems,
      gastrointestinal illness,
      birth defects,
      impaired bone growth in children, and behavioral problems.
      .
      In short, coal ash toxics have the potential to injure
      all of the major organ systems in adults (including pregnant women) and children.
      Exposure to toxic coal ash can lower birth rates, cause tissue disease, slow development,
      and
      even kill plants and animals, leading to changes in wildlife concentrations
      and disruptions to entire ecosystems.
      .
      The toxic pollution from coal ash builds up in exposed animals and plants, causing the pollution to make its way up the food chain when they are eaten.
      .
      Children are more susceptible to the health impacts of coal ash
      -and according to the EPA,
      1.54 million children live near coal ash storage sites.
      .
      Not only is coal ash toxic, it is also likely to grow increasingly dangerous.
      .
      Air pollution control technologies, like SCRUBBERS, selective catalytic reduction,
      and activated carbon injection, capture mercury and other hazardous air pollutants
      and are able to stop increasing amounts of toxic pollution from going up the smokestacks.
      .
      However, when those pollutants are captured they are shifted from the air to the TOXIC coal ash.
      .
      Mercury and other TOXIC pollutants that previously contributed to air pollution are now becoming solid wastes -they leach into water, their toxicity is

    Okay so to sum up: climate change is slow, and Stossel and his guests are not sure if the rise in temperatures will be harmful.
    Here's the other side - the global temperature rise in the last 100 years has not happened at this speed for 5000 years. We covered a 4 degree rise in the last 5000 years (0.08 degrees per century). In the last 100 years we saw a rise of 0.7 degrees.
    TLDR - the process is speeding up. Now, this may seem like a small amount, but bear in mind - this is global average temperature (including temperatures from the extreme places like the Arctic / Egypt). Even a degree increase means a much higher temperature in hotter regions.
    Okay that's fine - but is it harmful? Stossel and his guests are right, it's not easy to say. This is a change which usually happens over thousands of years, and it's hard to understand exactly what will go wrong. However, the answer does not seem to be "nothing". Lets keep in mind that human beings were born and evolved over the last 300,000 years, following a slow rise in temperatures. We've never really seen a major temperature variance over such a short duration.
    Another thing scientists agree on is that life on earth helps maintain the temperature. Before life existed, the climate of our planet was weird - everything was either lava or it rained for a million years. In a way, all the plants and trees have helped create a temperature necessary for survival.
    And we have suddenly destroyed all of it. 90 percent of wildlife areas have vanished over the last few hundred years, with entire species getting wiped out overnight. This is obviously why we are seeing an accelerated temperature rise. Let's be very clear about one thing - if we destroy all the other species on our planet, we will definitely go extinct.
    So keeping the above history and context in mind, we can agree on one thing - this is definitely a real problem that needs to be headed off at the pass. Not being able to understand the change is not a good enough excuse to ignore it. I agree with Stossel and his guests that maybe we can be a little less thuggish about how we discuss this topic, but the simple fact is that if the balance of life is disturbed, life for human beings will get worse.
    TLDR: Climate change is real. We may not know how it impacts us, but we do know that it impacts us.

    Ok. So...
    1. Is Carbon a greenhouse gas, a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range? Yes.
    2. Have humans increased carbon gas emissions? Yes.
    3. Does this increased carbon atmosphere insulate more heat? Yes.
    4. Does our more insulated atmosphere affect the climate? Yes.
    4.a- For one thing, it means that ocean waters evaporate at an increased rate without an increased rate of condensation. This causes the ocean to become more acidic as it becomes more salty. I think we know that isn't exactly good for the wildlife.

      2. Plants "breathe" in carbon, just plant more and stop killing weeds.
      3. If this was that simple then we shouldn't technically have any winter weather or it would be hot at night everywhere because of too much trapped heat. Also heat rises and do you know the temperature at 30,000 feet?
      4. How much of the climate is affected, you don't know. Droughts and storms would happen with or without climate change.
      4a. How do you explain record rainfall now then this year? You know it does rain over the ocean too and storm drains in California head back to the ocean. If the ocean is two salty then we need more fresh water to melt don't we.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that there is a consensus and that it is world wide.

    The most famous 97% statistic comes from a researcher in Australia named John Cook, who cherry-picked his data by only including in his analysis research papers that mention or imply man-made climate change in their abstracts. So it really should be "97% of scientists that I thought agreed with me about man-made climate change actually did agree with me.". Furthermore, consensus arguments are the exact opposite of scientific reasoning. Consensus has usually been against every important scientific discovery in history. Science is about carefully conducted study of hypothesis, with any individual being capable of calling all established thought into question. Telling people to shut up and agree with you because you got a lot of your friends to agree is mob rule, not science.

    It’s it funny that they say that the last time carbon was this high was when the world was a tropical place. And in a time when people were not adding to it. Mankind can and will adapt to the cycles of the planet. Something that could help is using building materials that last longer and don’t absorb lots of heat, and ban all the junk things that are made to only last a few years then get thrown away. We have the technology to make cars that last a lifetime with only basic maintenance and repairs, but we don’t because it is not profitable. If designed obsolescence was banned we could probably reduce consumption by at least half. Instead now we are getting electric cars forced down our throats that will be scrapped in 8-10 years for no other reason other than that they will stop making batteries and parts. They are so expensive that as soon as you finish making payments on it you will need a new car, keeping you enslaved to the car companies and banks for life. Good luck to my generation who wants to retire in the next 20 years, much less my kid’s generation. I do like how he mentioned that government subsidies paid for his house- calling it free money. Nope no such thing. It is someone else’s money, probably someone who can’t afford such niceties. It isn’t government money, it’s taxpayer’s money. Money that makes it harder for the rest of us to buy groceries because it went to building his house cheaper for him to run. Even funnier is I saw a video recently of a scientist trying to explain the unusual cold snap is the result of global warming. It was -47c due to global warming. When I was a kid they said the hole in the ozone will kill us all. And acid rain. And they said in the ‘70s that we would be in an I’ve age by the year 2000. Seems to me we avoided those catastrophic events, so we should be happy. But happy people don’t bend over and give all their money away. Scared people do. Wonder what the next world destroying man made disaster will be next.

      You need to get yourself updated. There was never going to be a climate catastrophe. Very few scientists actually say that there is a climate emergency. Those who do say it are politicians, activists and the media. But most scientists say there's no climate emergency.
      We are living in a period that is cooler than the medieval warm period and they back then were not submerged in sea water. Neither will we even if temperatures go up by 1.5 degrees. But the most realistic forecast calls for only a 0.02°C rise if CO2 level is doubled.
