Andy1 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Aristocrat - Sea level photos prove nothing. There is something called tides that can dramatically change the level of the ocean. You would have to know the pictures were taken at the same time in the tide cycle for comparison between years. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/04/23/fact-check-water-level-photos-dont-disprove-climate-change/7333921002/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How’s your carbon footprint? I'm in a pretty energy efficient home and have cut back a lot on driving but I'm not sure exactly how big my direct or indirect footprint is but I expect its a lot smaller than the government officials, billionaires, and assorted activists telling us all we have to cut back on energy consumption and carbon emissions. My suggestion to them is, you first, and enough of this leading from the rear. So park those planes, dock those yachts, and cancel those conferences and resort destination vacations, and trade in those 40 room mansions and gas guzzling giants SUV's and sports cars for something more modest. My temperament is that until they put some skin in the game they can all F off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How’s your carbon footprint? My home has been solar powered for the last fifteen years. I'm not trying to be holier than thou. My point is that everyone can talk a good story, but you can indeed make choices in your life that have a far greater impact (if there is one to be made) than the Elitists flying around the globe attending conferences and eating off the appetizer cart while sucking back drinks from the open bar.

Wacka Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 (edited) The climate in Bufalo is average. Yesterday was 90 as the high. 4th 90 this year. Right on the average. I remember Tom Jolls telling us in the 80s that hadn't gotten above 90 for 4 years! Edited August 4, 2022 by Wacka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you should ask that question of all the people pushing the agenda that have carbon footprint 10 to 20 times what you and I produce? And yet they still live along the coasts which they claim are going to be washed away by rising oceans in 10 years. Why aren't they all moving to Wisconsin? And if you think the Earth is hot now just wait 2 billion years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
