So, how exactly will one farm in downtown New York City?

Window boxes?

Failed. Millions die. Good job.

Dan8267 says

have you thought that entire nations that are dependent upon their agricultural industry to feed themselves will experience mass starvation?

That is another death scenario from the 70's, but we made it!

Are you seriously trying to refute the Pentagon's claims with that snarky comment? Sorry, but I'll listen to the experts rather than some ignorant armchair quarterback who has already presented so many debunked lies and refuses to admit that he's wrong even after being shown the real evidence.

Hater says

Dan8267 says

extreme weather creates more global humanitarian crises.

Name one "humanitarian disaster" caused by global warming since Katrina?

You are a fool if you think that the crises created by climate change will have climate change stamped on them. That's not how reality works. Nonetheless, we can be certain that climate change is causing crises because of a little thing called statistics. It's amazing how powerful math is.

With just a five foot rise...

at current rates that would take half a century.

rando says

"Sea level continues to rise at a rate of about one-eighth of an inch per year."

Just don't assume the rise in sea-levels will be linear. That would be batshit stupid. Nature rarely follows linear patterns.

The melting of ice creates a positive feedback which exponentially increases warming. Ice is white. When it melts, less sunlight is reflected back into space, and more warming occurs, melting more ice.

Reduce the population to 1 Billion by strict child licensing over the next century and 90% of the problems vanish.

All else is of minor importance.

Recycling Cardboard, Glass and Plastic Bottles, and separating yellow paper from white paper from non-yellow colored paper is to the Environment what the TSA is to security. And that's not fair to the TSA, which is far more effective with security theater in protecting from terrorism than recycling is 'protecting' the Earth.

Kim loves the toys. The fatty burgers are just a bonus.

Yes, overpopulation is a critical problem. However, I would not say it's the only problem. Even with a world-wide reduction of 90% of the population, coal power plants would still do great harm.

I think a lot of people would pay for the chance to take out Kimfuck with a piece of lamp cord.

Hater says

1979 – New ice age almost upon us? (The Christian Science Monitor, November 14, 1979)

Climatologists were wrong then (maybe) what makes them so right now?

In the 70s, the concern that human activity would push the earth into a positive feedback loop of cooling was entirely reasonable based on projections of increased aerosol and particulate emissions which block at high altitude and/or reflect sunlight away from the surface. These smog components proved relatively easy to eliminate from smokestack and tailpipe emissions through emission control regulations and systems, leaving primarily CO2, a potent GHG.

Silly the way non-scientists consider this a contradiction or error in climate science, or proof that "scientists don't know what they're talking about."

He is a commie socialist libtard with your money, NOT his!

If that is correct, then global warming is caused by environmental regulations imposed since the 1970s, and could be easily solved by repealing some of those. American voters recently elected a President who campaigned on repealing some regulations and restoring smokestack industries.

Dibs, I'll take it. what's the preferred payment method?

a lot of irony in these gold sales...
- making a thread claiming it's "safe" to buy gold again then unloading his gold inventory shortly. really? are there other bad investments that need bailing out?
- so all these years he has been nervous and hoarding gold under Obama's regime and it's only now that he begins to have trust in the economy again. yet he refuses to admit Trump is a much better president???

Mother Nature is just getting started.

I'd be very happy if people would use patrick.net to sell more stuff.

Go for it! No fees from this site. But don't cross the line into spam, i.e. links to some viagra site.

His 3rd Home, was this a "pay-off" gift from Hillary??

Nothing like not knowing what you are talking about. But that is the natural state of some posters. His wife sold her family house in maine to buy this one. Duh. http://www.sevendaysvt.com/OffMessage/archives/2016/08/08/bernie-sanders-buys-a-summer-home-in-north-hero

“My family had a lake home in Maine since 1900, but we hadn’t had the time to go there in recent years — especially since my parents passed away,” she said. “We finally let go of it and that enabled us to buy a place in the islands — something I’ve always hoped for. ”

But hey don't let pesky facts get in the way of being an idiot.

Despite the ramblings of the oppressed left, the theme of the thread in all it's glory remains determinedly poignant.
The oppressed are homeless and starving while their great white haired spokesman can't seem to get enough residences to cover his ass...

Some think that the bank regulations were designed not so much to avoid disaster but to deter competition. I don't know if this is true. I'm not sure about the repeal of the regulations but I hope it won't lead to another bubble.

Yes, actually the northern CA coast is very nice and not all that expensive either.

But there are not so many humans around, and very few jobs outside of marijuana cultivation.

I like people. Actually a smallish town might be ironically much better for meeting lots of people than a city. Maybe some place with a population of about 10,000.

How you gonna make those foreign polluters obey?

This is like arguing that we should not try to stop terrorism simply because not every state is doing so. It's a retarded argument.

1. Pollution is cumulative. So the pollution we add matters regardless of what other states do.
2. Pollution is most destructive locally. More reasons why we should stop polluting our land, air, and water.
3. Yes, there are plenty of mechanisms for reducing world-wide pollution by all states.
4. There is the political will from other states to cooperate on pollution control. This was proven with the Kyoto Protocol.

The Only Nations That Haven't Signed 1997's Global Climate Treaty are Afghanistan, Sudan & the U.S.A. (Great company we're keeping.)

A total of 192 countries have signed and ratified the Kyoto Protocol, the 1997 treaty that's the closest thing we have to a working global agreement to fight climate change. That's almost every country, state, and even one "regional economic integration organization", according to the United Nations.

Saying that the United States can do nothing about climate change because we don't have the cooperation of other nations is completely wrong and beyond stupid.

Hater says

And there is nothing you can do to stop global warming. So stop scaring the children with dire scenarios and start lobbying to cut population and pollution, which are the REAL problems facing humanity.

Climate change is a real problem, and it's occurring right now and creating problems right now. But like most problems, it will get must worse if left to fester.

Your selfish and defeatist comment reveals your intent. You don't care that climate change is real or its effects are terrible. You simply don't want us addressing the problem. That is why you should not be respected. You have never been concerned about the truth or what is best for America, only preventing selfish people like you from being able to pollute and impoverish the rest of us to satisfy your own greed.

You are also wrong about there being nothing we can do to mitigate and prepare for climate change. If that were the case, you would not be afraid that we will do those things. We can start with pollution control laws and pollution taxes. As I stated, this is the free market solution. Allowing pollution is corporate welfare and letting the state pick winners and losers. Pollution is communism.

Hater says

And you think Al Gore didn't say all of the ice would melt unless you give him money.

He did not say that, and only an idiot would claim so.

The only people with profit motives are the polluters denying climate change. They are like the tobacco industry claiming that smoking does not cause cancer.

It takes a particularly immoral scumbag to lie when lives are at stake. How Unamerican is it to endanger your fellow Americans with lies? It's as bad as terrorism.

You don't win a debate by telling other people how stupid they are. And if you really think someone is so stupid, why debate them?

Keep it civil, argue ideas not who fucks more goats

Oh honeybuns, I presented verified evidence from experts and countered every single debunked lie you repeated. It is you who is not rising to the challenge of debate.

Oh, and civility means not lying in a debate. You can disagree about opinions. You can present honest evidence to support your case. You can make rational arguments against the other side's evidence. But if you post false evidence that has been debunked and keep claiming it as legitimate evidence while simply discarding without cause real evidence, then you are not debating and not engaging in civilized discussion. You are trolling and writing propaganda. It is dishonest, and you will be called on it.

Hater says

Again I ask, would you rather live on a tropical planet or an iceball?

I'd rather live in the subtropics, which I do right now, but won't be able to do when Florida is under water, which is already happening in all of Miami-Dade county. Our streets that have never flooded before and now flooding routinely. We see the effect of rising sea levels RIGHT NOW and it threatens our jobs and our homes. It's not an academic issue to us.

What right do you have to destroy our homes and our businesses? Why should we simply accept the loss of trillions of dollars of real estate and tens of trillions of dollars of businesses? Your greed and minor fiscal benefits does not outweigh that.

This thread is the epitomy of irresponsible do-nothings, who blame everyone else for their problems, but can do nothing to fix things themselves except piss and moan.

Keep talking about mans ability to dominate nature when we can't even predict rain. Keep bitching about coal while you drive your oil and coal powered cars(how do u think electricity is generated...). Keep saying how enlightened you are with a house full of petrolum based products, and no thought ever reusing anything.

Just remember what will outlive your endless gas of irrelevant words, is your environmentally irresponsible footprint.

This discussion is useless.
When there is a million dead bodies in the streets of Mumbai or Karachi, it will be more convincing.
We can then point fingers at idiots.

Comet hits earth, all life destroyed.

Let's get to work on that comet avoidance system. It will be costly, but don't you care about the children?

This is an idiotic comparison, coupled by the fact that we should be starting a program to prevent comets and asteroids from wiping out the Earth. But even if that were not the case, you'd still be wrong.

All I can say is that you must truly suck at business if this is how you think. As anyone competent in running any business in any field knows, there are two aspects of a problem: importance and urgency.

A problem is important if it has a significant impact. A problem is urgent if it must be solved soon or not at all. The very first thing you work on are problems that are both important and urgent, then urgent, then important, and you don't bother with things that are neither.

An asteroid or comet hitting the Earth and wiping out all of humanity is extremely important, but not at all urgent since its such a rare event. As such, a wise business man would start a non-rushed task to slowly and cheaply come up with a solution. That solution would not have to come anytime soon, but you can make a little progress every month.

Climate change is a problem that is both important and urgent, and thus should be handled right away. Any decent business man would acknowledge this and be pro-active in finding a solution.

All of this is obvious. You would suck at business.

I can't speak for you, but I certainly can understand nature, and so can scientists. You see we have tools that enable us to do this like the scientific method, experimentation, and mathematics. As for measurements, core sample measurements are entirely reproducible and thus unfakeable.
