Climate is changing and has ALWAYS been changing since before life even existed on this planet.
What people don't believe in is runaway global warming which is complete and utter nonsense.

It's bait, but I'm an idiot so here's a copy pasted reply on why the whole debate is fucking worthless:

For all the countless hours of talk wasted debating whether anthropogenic climate change is real, the public have become myopic and ignore the real questions. Once they feel their debate is "settled," they immediately make calls to action and demand regulations.

Whoa there! Hold your horses. Suppose we grant that climate change is real and manmade. That doesn't answer any of the (honestly more important) questions that must be addressed before enacting sweeping policy changes. Because the difficult questions are not scientific so much as economic.

I've tried to discuss these varied and highly nuanced topics with others, but it has never ended well. The myopic public will just label you a "denier" and hurl stale science at you without actually addressing these important questions. Or they will become fanatical and tell you the the sky is falling and there is no time for such discussion. Finally, I found one question that really cuts to the heart of the entire climate change debate, one question that stops people in their tracks and forces them think about the problem in a new way.

The question is this:

How much would the United States need to reduce their carbon emissions in order to stop atmospheric CO2 from rising?

This is a question most have never considered. They just know CO2 has to be stopped, but they never asked how much we need to reduce to make a meaningful impact.

So what is the answer? Actually, it is a trick question. Because even if the United States completely shut down all industry and eliminated every man, woman, and child from the entire nation, reducing carbon emissions by 100%, it would still not be enough to prevent global atmospheric CO2 from rising.

1/?
>>
>>133903989
At this point people may point out that the US doesn't have to make all the changes alone. Any real fight against climate change must be a concerted effort of many nations.

Fine. Let's modify the question.

How much would the United States, Japan, Korea, and all of Europe have to reduce carbon emissions in order to stop atmospheric CO2 from rising?

Again, this is another trick question. Because even if all these nations reduced their carbon footprint by 100%, if every man, woman, and child in the US, Europe, Korea, and Japan were to vanish off the face of the Earth tonight, it still would not put a stop to the advance of climate change.

How can this be?

Let's modify the question one last time to see.

How much would the WORLD need to reduce carbon emissions in order to stop atmospheric CO2 from rising?

Approximately 40% of all manmade CO2 is successfully absorbed by the environment. This means roughly 60% of manmade CO2 is not absorbed and thus increases atmospheric CO2.

We may therefore say we need to reduce global CO2 production by around 60% to reach a break even point (but this ignores the fact that absorption rises along with our production). Still, something around this number can be found in the scientific research.

"In order to stabilize CO2 concentrations at about 450 ppm by 2050, global emissions would have to decline by about 60%. Industrialized countries greenhouse gas emissions would have to decline by about 80%."

-Barack Obama's Presidential Climate Action Plan

80%??? And how much do all our proposed plans reduce emissions? <5%?

Right then... We need to somehow magically reduce CO2 in all industrialized nations by around 80%, and the policy changes currently being advocated for might offer around a 5% global change. Sorry to take the wind out of your religiously fanatical demands for action!

2/?
>>
>>133904061
The United States accounts for about 17% of manmade CO2. Japan, 4%. Korea, 2%. European nations between 1 and 2 percent each.

China and the developing world account for over 47% of manmade CO2. So if you wiped out all of the US, all of Europe, Japan, and Korea, and then managed to reduce China by around 25%, you would be near the break even point for CO2 absorption.

Perhaps you start to see now what we are actually facing here. A 60% global reduction in CO2 cannot be accomplished without creating a worldwide economic depression which would no doubt kill millions of human beings. Good luck on reversing the industrial revolution and sending mankind back to the stone age.

The only possible solution to this problem may be found in some massive scientific and technological advances. Short of that, there is nothing we can do to stop climate change except perhaps an extremely authoritarian global government and mass death (that's not what you want, right?).

If you've been wondering why the world seems to be sitting around and not doing anything about climate change, maybe the answer isn't "those stupid, evil Republicans and oil companies," maybe the problem isn't "those ignorant, irrational science deniers"...

Maybe they've just taken a look at the numbers

Not an argument.
What the fuck does an agricultural and technological civilization that have to do with anything you stupid fuck?
The entire premise of runaway global warming is that CO2 causes a runway feedback loop.
If it didn't happen at 7,000 ppm WHY THE FUCK would it happen now at 400ppm and at half the average global temperature?
Answer this mohamed, you stupid fuck.

I'll just leave pic related here

"I don't know and can't be bothered to look it up so it's fake :'("
Look up solar cycles, albedo, volcanic eruptions and the lack of other greenhouse gases or pollutants you fucking human garbage. On such a wide scale and that long ago you'll be dealing with extremely volatile data.. it's almost as if you haven't made your argument in good faith, who'd have thought

What is your point exactly. Even if we took the lowest possible points in the margin of error, it still does not refute what I said.

The entire reason it happened in the first place was the consequence of an asteroid colliding with Earth marking the end of the Cretaceous period. The debris shot into the atmosphere would block out the sun creating a colder climate
