Dunning Kruger would be so proud of you,

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!  it's BACK!!  I've been waiting ages for the re-release of the limited edition Dunning Kruger definition failure and it was worth the wait! 

Now 'Dunning Kruger'  is just one guy, and he'd be proud to see this apparently :) So he's not only got the definition wrong, he's also created is own 'Dunning Kruger" action figure character to go around encouraging people who display good dunning krugerism and on top of it he's wrong, they'd be baffled as to why they were being brought into this :)  

AND he managed to get in the irony of the fact that HE"S an amateur who thinks he knows better than the experts :) LOLOLO!!!! It's perfect!

I love the Dunning Krueger comments :) It's some of the purest form of stupidity you can find on the internet and that saying something :)

Too bad you DON'T HAVE the expertise to be an authority on the subject and thus you don't understand the science behind what I post.

Are you still claiming my custom P100 fully sealed mask cannot stop the virus? LMAO

Dunning Kruger would be so proud of you, cause you're a poster child for their theory. AKA, amateurs who imagine they know better than the experts. 🤮

robocultist thinks science backs his marxist propaganda. lol

It was super chilly this morning for this time of year. 

I'm wondering if we're all going to turn into ice cubes? 

https://www.thedailyscoop.com/news/retail-industry/doomsday-addiction-celebrating-50-years-failed-climate-predictions

In 1970, as greenhouse theorists pushed a rise in average temperature, plenty of prognosticators asserted a big freeze. Kenneth Watt sounded the ice alarm, speaking in Pennsylvania at Swarthmore College: “The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but 11 degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”

In the Seventies, I spent quite enough winters in the Rust belt, places like Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, etc. I got PLENTY of cold weather to last me a lifetime.

Did you ever notice that when the lies of the EnviroNazis are revealed, these bozos try to change the argument, change the subject, invent a new crisis?

LOL yes but he's like that guy from 'home improvement',  where the neighbour explains things to him over the fence and then he runs off and completely screws it up when he repeats it to someone else.

Yes. And thank you for posting that. I knew these wokejobs spewed some ldiocy about global cooling before they shifted to global warming.

I wonder what nonsensical bullshit will resurface next; maybe this?

I was starting to think it was only me who noticed they went from global "cooling" to global "warming".

Nobody else even batted an eye.

That movie 2012 doesn't ring any bells?  Global ice age was the "science" at the time.

Ok.

Are you saying a movie in 2012 represents a real view on Climate?  Also I looked up Kenneth Watt.  An ecologist speaking on Earth Day in 1970, so who knows...

The Greenhouse effect has been known for 200 years and there's no major challenge to the theory that CO2 is driving Climate Change.  A handful of climate scientists dispute the degree to which humans are involved but as both temperature and CO2 emissions climb there are fewer and fewer.

 

There's been nothing close to consensus on cooling of the Climate... That's a falsehood.

"global cooling" was NEVER a consensus of climate scientists like GW has been for decades. There were a few stories about it published in popular magazines.

There was cooling 70 years ago due to particulate emissions primarily from diesel engines, but MAJOR PROGRESS was made cleaning up the long haul trucks.

The cause of GW is completely different: fossil fuel CO2 emissions which have NOT been cleaned up yet, though progress is being made with electric cars and renewable energy sources.

I'm saying global "cooling", global ice age was the fear being pumped at the time and like usual - the movies and entertainment of the day, reflected the "scientific" thinking.

Why would Hollywood reflect current scientific thinking? 

It doesn't make sense to try and draw a line between actual science and what tickets they're selling at the movies.

Hahaha, Hollywood's JOB at this point in time is reflect the current thinking of whatever the powers that be WANT you to think, on many fronts.

That movie dramatized what the scientific thinking was at the time - global ice age was coming.

I'm just adding to the post above (which you seem to be ignoring) that the science went from global "cooling" to global "warming" with few people even blinking.

I didn't ignore your post, but you ignored my response.

Hollywood's job is to sell movie tickets by being ENTERTAINING. Nothing more.

As previously stated, there WAS cooling due to particulate emissions which has been mostly cleaned up.

Do you understand how particulates block the sun and reflect it back instead of warming the Earth?

No, it wasn't. Not even close. And it's a VERY silly claim. that's like saying that because Armageddon and Deep Impact both premiered in 1998 "the science at the time" was about an impending meteor strike. Nope. These are just disaster movies. Pure fiction for entertainment purposes--like Fox news-- nothing to do with science.

No I didn't ignore it.  I addressed the comments from Earth Day.

Your post seems to simultaneously try to say that Hollywood pushes falsehoods and that Global Cooling was a serious concern.

There are a lot of ways you can look at this, but like I say you can't draw a line back to serious science. 

So the discussion is kind of a non-starter for me.

Good gawd, it was a general comment that movies often reflect what concerns are at any given time.   Even right now we have the popular movies Civil War and Leave The World Behind, because that's a concern to people right now.

I'm telling you, global COOLING was the idea that was pushed before global warming.  I remember it because, personally at the time, I was more worried about freezing to death in an ice age, than the entire planet spontaneously combusting in a giant fireball. 

FFS, I never said 2012 was a science-based movie.  I never said ALL Hollywood movies reflect ALL concerns of ALL people ALL of the time.  🙄
