    see? This is why I’ve never believed shits like Al Gore or anyone like him. They keep saying the end of the world will be at whatever time because of global warming, and then that time passes and we’re still here.

    Al Gore said there wouldn’t be any ice in the polar regions by 2013. And we’ve passed a few more predictions that didn’t happen regarding climate change since then as well.

    If the sea levels are going to rise as much as the shitlibs say they will, why are there new houses being build on beachfronts all the time?

    Obviously something weird is going on with the weather and the climate, but no one can find any objective information about climate change because most outlets are either funded by the oil companies or they’re funded by groups that want us all to eat bugs and live in tiny houses while they fly around in private jets dozens of times a day.

      People still build houses on flood plains too, that doesn’t mean they don’t still flood.

      People buy them with no research and the companies care that they can sell units.

      That’s not an argument.

        So why is there still ice in the polar regions if “the science” said it would be gone 11 years ago.

          “the science” never said that.

          and there’s no thing like “the science”. There are many, many scientists and findings in a given area. You should never do what Gore did and look at one single finding and see it as the absolute truth. You need to look at the big picture, at meta analyses over hundreds of findings to get to get close to some kind of “core truth”.

          You aren’t disproving science as a whole by showing a scientist was wrong once.
