I hear a lot of people saying global warming is a scam, it’s fake, or whatever.

Many of them point to record low temperatures and others mention that temperature data is being fudged to make it seem like it’s real. This could be possible. I’m currently undecided on the whole thing.

But how do you explain the melting glaciers? These are things you can see with your own eyes and know to be true. For instance look at old pictures of glacier national park and compare it to today. Also a ski resort based on a glacier in Bolivia literally had to shut down because the 18,000 year old glacier on it melted. You can go there and see it with your own eyes to verify.

I'll start believing in it when the people who keep telling me to believe in it start acting as if they actually believe in it. When AlGore tells everyone that the seas will soon rise cataclysmically, and yet both he and Ohblah-blah have purchased multi-million dollar sea-side villas that would shortly be underwater if true, it skews the message. When the Davos airport runs out of parking space for all of the private jets these people fly around in whenever they feel the urge to sit around eating comped shrimp cocktails and congratulating themselves on how wise and caring they all are, I don't want to hear another goddamm word about my fucking carbon footprint.

Not to brag, but I've been through so many "APOCALYPTIC END OF THE WORLD!!"s by now it's all actually gotten kind of predictable and boring.

Private jets are a solid point too. 10 hours in a private jet puts out as much co2 as the average person in a year

One of the biggest scams the glowball grifters ever played was getting something the every single creature creature on the planet produces declared a pollutant. Yet the Medieval Warming Period (which they REALLY don't like to talk about) resulted in a world-wide economic boom. Chaucer even wrote about grapes being grown as far North as Scotland and wheat harvests increased. Must have been all those SUV's they were driving around back then. And that's not the first time either. And the fossil record (something else they really don't want to talk about) shows that, at one point the entire area around what is now the British Isles was tropical!
