Your foolish fringe-science delusions and intellectual arrogance are going to drive your descendants to despair and death. But I have no doubt you'll go to your grave unconvinced no matter what the evidence points to, blissfully leaving the outcome of your decisions to future generations. It's ironic that you mention falsifiable claims, since literally no amount of overwhelming evidence can ever convince deniers that their claims are false.
Climate models are not "wrong" or "right," they are models based on finite variables which resemble reality within an expected margin of error. Thus they will always have slight but expected variance from actual measurements in the future. Science doesn't reveal absolute truth, it gets us fractionally closer to absolute truth. Right now 97% of scientists have reached a consensus that even based on the most conservative extremes of the margin of error of our climate models that anthropogenic climate change is real and is marching towards catastrophe. That's a higher degree of certainty than plenty of other scientific concepts that we have put into practice. You are claiming to have better knowledge than the utterly overwhelming majority of evidence and expert observation. Is it because you are miraculously the smartest person on earth, or is it because you are a deluded crank? It's pretty obvious which it is to everyone but yourself and other conspiracy peddlers.
- edoo 8y agoAd hominem attacks are the sign you have left logic at the wayside and are running on emotion. It is often a sign that your belief, true or not, has been reinforced with false logic, as when confronted with true logic you are unable to appropriately respond. Don't worry, we all get better with practice.
- chillwaves 8y agoFalacy Falacy. It's not nice that the meanie head called you names, but where is your actual citation? Where are actual studies to back up your claims? You just repeat yourself here, as elsewhere, that somehow an "ad hominem" by your opponite supports your view? That's not how this works and is in fact, ironically, an ad hominem attack.
- normal_man 8y agoI actually have a theory about debate club weenies like yourself - you act in such an annoying and objectionable way to force people to roast you, because saying "ah, adhominem, therefore I win" is the only way you can win since your arguments can never withstand scrutiny
- vertexFarm 8y agoCondescending, gets hung up on form and image instead of substance. Pretty obvious deflection. Everybody runs on emotion as well as reason, and there are perfectly reasonable situations to get emotional. Maybe you get a lot of ad-hominem attacks because you deserve it. Want the debate club response? Just endless, endless sources and studies and data. They are out there and they are overwhelming and conclusive. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2995507/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2995507/ https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/ https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/ Be sure to click through and check out all the individual citations. I wonder if you'll actually live up to your supposed principles and care about the evidence.
