A Catastrophic Climate ‘Tipping Point’ Is Imminent

Cancer is a fine euphemism for the overloading of the atmosphere with GHG.

How about you prove that has NO EFFECT on global temps and resulting sea rise?

Thing is, we know you cannot because you never took college physics nor chemistry.

There's a metaphor in there somewhere for global warming.

...nobody actually cared about it at all. So nobody really called for change. They just called for virtue signalling.

So what about your recent schtick that maintains it's always been fashionable amongst Conservatives to express your concerns about climate-change?

The Liberals mismanagement of the climate file is no surprise to anyone who paid attention to how badly DFO was managed on their watch. And yes Conservatives have always been every bit as ineffective at doing anything to make a lick of difference.

Yeah - i think the schtick might be in your brain. (or up somewhere else in your anatomy ) 

Conservatives have always cared bout pollution and such, and they certainly DID reduce emissions, the difference being they don't talk about it much but do what they can and actually achieve results whereas all liberals do is talk about it and never achieve anything.

But - even the conservatives, being the only party to successfully reduce emissions, didn't delude themseles into claiming or believing that was going to do a damn thing for climate change. If all of canada was shut down tomorrow it wouldn't do anything. Sane people who can do math get this.

Canada can't affect climate change by reducing emissions.  We would have to develop tech that allowed the big polluters to reduce emissions that was so desirable they were willing to adopt it.

So that's a "NO" you still don't understand "tipping point." Maybe you'll understand when it hits you in the ass.

For you, tipping point is where the cheque comes and you bolt out the door without leaving a gratuity yelling over your shoulder that the gov't should pay for it.

We've had dozens and dozens of proclaimed 'tipping points'.  if they actually mean something and you believe that - why have you and the rest of the dems and their supporters done virtually nothing about it? Did you forget who's in power right now'?

So Conservatives say Canada has to develop the tech not the polluter - on our dime no less?

Fascinating. Nothing like making the world safe for capitalists I suppose. I'd suggest cocaine and hookers too.

I don't recall saying it had to be on our dime? Ohhhh wait - this is where you realize you don't have an argument so you invent something i didn't say and argue against that    Cute - it's like watching a puppy chase it's tail.

Well you ARE a liberal so using public funds and extoring capitalists to buy yourself cocaine and hookers would be pretty appropriate for you.  Call Hunter and see if he can hook you up

 

Sorry kid - you can't spin away from the truth. IF we're going to have an impact its because we invented something that had an impact beyond our borders.  Not with a 'carbon tax' that just makes everyone poor.

More like 'i know i have lung cancer so its' probably too late to just switch to light smokes, i may need to take other action if i'm serious about this".

Wait.... so we're blaming climate change on the fish now? If i see one article about salmon burps....

Any way sure - trudeau is a liar and breaks his word.  But chretien was given the un protocols and ignored it, signed kyoto and did nothing, paul martin did nothing and we knew that justin wasn't going to hit any of his paris targets long before the last election but people still voted for him because "climate change".

Meanwhile harper promised nothing and actually reduced emissions.

Liberals and the left do NOT care about climate change, they care about virtue signalling.

No, I'm comparing how two types of right-wingers cave to corporate interests for the same reason and result. They're both right-wing the result usually being the environment loses.

The Liberals are not the left. There's also lots of conservatives who aren't right-wing.  Whatever it is about the word conserve in conservative is that you don't get you can be sure Trudeau doesn't care either. Hence the virtue-signalling.

Lucky for us he caused a financial meltdown to do so.  Like I said PP won't be able to help but repeat that feat given the mess he's inheriting - the poor thing won't stand a chance and he'll be lucky to get one term before he's turfed for his disastrous handling of the economy.  You know how that works, everything is the fault of the guy in charge - it comes with the job.

Did you think the cancer would go away if you smoke less?

No, you need to accept that while it might be a good idea to smoke as little as possible, you're at the point where you're going to need more advanced technology if you're going to beat it.  Advanced medicine, advanced operations, so on and so forth. It is far too late to worry about 'cutting back.

Same here.  There is nothing canada can do to stop climate change by controlling how much we smoke, or pollute. We just don't put out enough to matter.

We have to look at vastly more serious methods, like developing the advanced tech needed to make it affordable and practical to 'quit smoking'.

The carbon tax for example is a lie and a lie that hurts our economy to the point where it cripples us from doing anything actually usefull.

So just do more of the same and cross your fingers. Great strategy, when has it ever worked?

Hard to say whether the carbon tax has had much to do with reducing emissions. I'm thinking some, but not a lot.

 

It's true that Canada's emissions are a small part of the world total but when you are one of the largest per capita emitters, it's pretty hypocritical to tell others they need to cut back.

Yes he does but for some reason you don't think doing more of the same when it comes to carbon emissions won't make the problem worse for everyone.

Suzy...I'm not even convinced there's a problem. 

See...I'm not the panicky type. It helps to keep one's head level, when chickens try to scream 'The sky is falling'.

You can't even prove there's actually an emergency.

You aren't convinced there is a problem but everyone else is screaming the sky is falling. Just about sums up your ignorance, you just don't want to know.

There is plenty of scientific evidence where we are headed but you are afraid of it. 

You accuse others of being afraid but you are so terrified you can't even acknowledge there is a problem.

Justin is about as far left as you can get before falling off the earth. I realize that you get weirder as the day goes on and your batteries run down but if you're trying to pass trudeau off as a 'right winger' then we need to plug you back in the wall right now

LOL  it's bad enough that the left already is ashamed to admit they supported justin in the election - now you can't even admit the entire party has gone left   Man - you know your political ideology sucks when it gets THAT bad

Quote

The Liberals are not the left.

The liberals are absolutely the left You really don't get more left. They'e lefter than the dippers right now.  But i can see why the left would be ashamed of what their own left wing ideology has done to canada.  You'll be lucky if any of these kids ever get stupid enough to vote left again. 

Quote

Yeah lucky us.  lucky lucky us.  Only a generation of economic damage and lower standards of living to contend with thanks to his left wing ideology - what luck!

 

Quote

The opposite is likely true.  Justin has made things look so bad that even if PP does next to nothing things will improve with justin gone and PP will look like a hero.  If he actually puts in some effort, it'll be night and day.

Truth be told PP's challenge will be to not look TOO good.  IF things get better too quickly people will think they're safe from left wing ideology again. Better to build it back up again slowly and surely and let the people be afraid of what would happen if the libs got in and undid it all again.

Sure - and if things get better at all, he gets the credit. Comes with the job.  And things are so horrible right now that it requires virtually no effort for things to get better.

But i tell you what - i'll put you down as having said he'll just be one term and we'll see who's right eventually

Dweebles...its your rhetoric and panic that is in question here. If you believe the climate is an emergency that warrants all the economic and social harm these greenie policies are causing...prove it or go home.
