Confirmed. Man made climate change is confirmed!
Consider this incontrovertible evidence. Donald Trump does not believe it's true.
HIATT: Last one: You think climate change is a real thing? Is there human-caused climate change?
TRUMP: I think there’s a change in weather. I am not a great believer in man-made climate change. I’m not a great believer.
There is certainly a change in weather that goes—if you look, they had global cooling in the 1920s and now they have global warming, although now they don’t know if they have global warming. They call it all sorts of different things; now they’re using “extreme weather” I guess more than any other phrase. I am not—I know it hurts me with this room, and I know it’s probably a killer with this room—but I am not a believer. Perhaps there’s a minor effect, but I’m not a big believer in man-made climate change.

Today's maxim....If the Donald says it's true ...think otherwise. Protect your wallet.

but seriously
he is just still mad cause the scots put up some wind turbines, "ruining the view" of his great golf course there
ive said this to other while having this debate, even if you dont believe in Climate change, you have to understand fossil fuels take thousands of years to build up that they are pretty much non renewable so eventually we will have to turn to renewable power sources so why not start now so any growing pains we go through while switching over are as painless as possible
also we use oil for so much besides fuel ( like plastics ) that we need to conserve as much of it as possible for future use

Nasa & Noaa performing their conspiratorial work
...on climate change events.
Of course I jest.
I thought this was a good visual on how these institutions gather data to adjust or confirm their models on climate change events ....in this case the impact of el nino/s.

And here we have a US Senator Imhofe who makes laws on such matters all the while taking massive contributions from the fossil fuel industry making this argument...
ps...the pic is real including the snowball...the words are a meme but in fact the point he was making on the US Senate floor.

Tucker Carlson doesn't claim to be an expert. Of course you don't have to be an expert to debate something.
My comment was about Bill Nye being portrayed as a Climate Expert, which he's not. He's the former host of one of my favorite shows as a kid.
That picture is hilarious and the argument is moronic. That doesn't equate to all people who question Climate science, the motives of the people pushing it or the solutions that are being presented.Sunny ways my friends, sunny ways
Because its 2015

Bill Nye is a communicator and with the denial that's going on on the subject I believe he feels a need to get on these shows and deny the deniers the podium without rebuttal. He is also ceo of the Planetary Society (whatever that is). You must know that most scientists would rather not get into such public debating which have a political edge to it. Simply put while they know the science intimately they have a problem communicating it especially to a Inhofe type and many in TV land. So in steps a Nye.
