Time will tell.

People pointed out the danger the frog simmering in a pot of water was in decades ago.

Very few who've been elected have. I think what's likelier is that the mounting unavoidable effects of AGW will compel the use of force to take it seriously. Of course corruption will only make things worse, especially for the most vulnerable. Being woke is the only thing that will get us through it. Being indifferent, hard-assed and angry will just get a bunch of people killed.

A falling sky is not just a strawman it's nuts.

This causes you a crisis?

What's likelier is that one will be elected to ignore you people and simply take action based on what science says whether you like it or not. You'll probably have a crisis over it.

You're simply pointing out a strawman. No one needs a cite for that.

I settle for scrapping both and starting from scratch.

Patriotism would be my guess. Danielle Smith is also just a little too MAGA - takes things like COVID authoritarianism conspiracies and concerns over UFO'S seriously.

The only crisis that matters is the sheer indifference to AGW. The flippancy of the climate-changes-all-the-time meme certainly underscores that.

Pierre Poilievre vows to scrap industrial carbon tax “There will be no taxes on consumers, no taxes on Canadian industries. Instead, provinces will continue to have the freedom to address this issue how they like, but there will be no federal obligation to impose the tax,” Poilievre said at a lectern adorned with a large “axe the tax” sign. I guess just axing one tax didn't cut it. And effectively speaking Poilievre, like Trump, is backing the federal government even farther away from it's obligations to do it's part to protect the environment. Will this be a red line for Carney or will he follow suit? This still has the potential to become, as it should, an AGW is bullshit campaign if he doesn't. If he does scrap the industrial tax however it will surely bolster the Liberals are bullshit campaign. Hopefully this will turn into an opportunity for other parties who support AGW action to grab enough votes to force a minority government to keep the federal government's feet to the fire.

You're definitely the best evidence of it around here.

Does that make Trump the hallmark of conservatism? MAGA lefties think he's the bees knees too.

You actually need a cite to know the climate changes...interesting...🤔

Judicious and intelligent. And I said civilization not mankind...mankind isn't going anywhere. We're just about the weediest most invasive species on the planet.

Looks like 10 or more to 1 for the period mentioned. We haven't seen anything yet.

It's a little astounding how people seem to think anyone is getting out of this to extent things return to some semblance of normalcy. Our global civilization's as well as every countries best days are behind us and have been for years. The real measure of financial or socioeconomic success going forward will simply be survival. Screwing someone before they screw you is the name of the game we're playing now.

Impossible. Your brilliance outshines and precludes anyone's ability to see anything else.

Why on Earth are you channelling CdnFox?

It is when you do the math. If the small amount that's coming from Canada will kill 4 million Americans, as the Whitehouse says, the amount smuggled in from elsewhere will kill 4 billion. Of course it's ridiculous hence the facetiousness. Unless you agree with the projected death tolls.

I was being facetious. I thought the comment about killing billions of Americans made that obvious.

Well aware...

Like every other planet in the solar system we're spiralling out farther from the sun. Just like we always have been and just like we always will be. Yes perihelion is a little farther out every year too.

MAGA leftist are a puzzling bunch alright. Like Bill Maher's guest last night Batya Ungar-Sargon. The things she believes Trump stands for would get you labelled as capitalist-hating Islamofascist commie around these parts just up until a few years ago.

I was lying.
