Climate Change Report

It always makes me laugh that every single one of these studies put out really only look at CO2. They ignore methane.
Ever wonder why that is?
Because it's easy to point at Big Oil and say "they make to much money, lets stop them!!". Then it is to point at the supermarket and say "No more Beef or Pork for you!"

The level of pseudo-science in this thread is astounding, and if nothing else exposes some serious issues with education in American.

Natural gas and petroleum systems are the largest source of CH4 emissions from industry in the United States. Methane is the primary component of natural gas. Some CH4 is emitted to the atmosphere during the production, processing, storage, transmission, and distribution of natural gas. Because gas is often found alongside petroleum, the production, refinement, transportation, and storage of crude oil is also a source of CH4 emissions.

CH4 is methane by the way.

There is no real debate in the scientific community on human driven climate change.

...in the same way that there is no real debate in science about whether creationism is true or not.

...in the same way that there is no real debate on cigarettes being carcinogenic.

...in the same way that recreational marijuana use isn't "the devil's work" or eroding society.

Of course there is no way to change the firmly established zealotic factionalism with the way these topics are approached, so you essentially have to wait for that generation to die out.

We've seen it with tobacco, we're seeing it with marijuana law, and yet somehow creationism has surged against the expectations.

I imagine the misinformation firms behind creationism will be influencing future tactics on generating debate where none exists.

The sad uniqueness of human driven climate change in this regard is that in waiting for this generation be overtaken, they may end up doing irreparable damage to the planet for generations to come.
