Fossil fuel billionaires don’t give a shit so neither does our government.

Because the ppl advocating for global warming still have beach front home that are in the same distance from the water they were 50 years ago. Doesn’t make sense.

Climate change caused by fossil fuels is not true. Do your research.

Well then, care to explain what’s causing it? Because climate change clearly exists and it didn’t just appear.

I was considering just calling it bait, but I have seen people with this stance before. I’m probably just too trusting though.

How do you know that’s it’s not natural? The earth temp has increased before the Industrial Revolution. Could be completely natural. I would rather focus on cleaning up trash and plastics that actually affect us. It’s better economically and politically to be energy dependent tho.

… really? The temperature is rising *INCREDIBLY* quickly. Too quickly to be natural.

I don’t even know where to begin with this comment. No offense but I’m baffled people still believe this in 2025

What do you think is causing it? CO2? CO2 is food for trees. We really don’t cut down trees without regrowing them. It slowed down from the increase in technology and more agricultural advancements like having quicker growing trees. That’s why wood doesn’t have as many zone lines. There’s been times in history where the atmosphere had double the amount of CO2. Car Engines release less C02 then cows these days.

If anything it’s more of a way to get people to stop buying oil/ make it seem more rare which equals more money. They teach this in public school because the Rockefeller paid for public school who owned all the gas and oil so they could control the value.

Ok what you said doesn’t mitigate climate change. Try again. Also where tf are you getting your information because I don’t want this to keep poisoning the minds of more people

I never said I had the solution to climate change I just said it’s not us causing it. Wdym try again tf. Climate is most likely natural. Just how the world goes through phases. Like the north and South Poles currently flipping. nobody knows why these events occur but they do 🤷🏼‍♂️

I’m just saying. If it was really a massive problem, why would the people who keep “fighting” for it continue to buy up beach front property. It’s just ironic lol

I mean it’s just really simple science. Sea level rise isn’t uniform around the globe due to the gravitational field, ocean currents, El Niño, etc. there are numerous islands around the globe that are uninhabitable now due to sea level rise.

I would also say the people talking about global warming travel around the nation/world burning jet fuel and releasing more greenhouse gas than thousands of people combined. Hypocritical

The whole data about thousands of people combined comparatively is flawed but in no way shape or form does them flying on airplanes lesson the need or impact of fighting it
