I'm neither on nor off the climate change, humans are damaging the world wagon and I certainly dont need some uppity teenager telling me what is and isn't.
I spend no time thinking or worrying about it (which is pretty clear by the vehicle I get around in daily).
As is plain to see by my occasional vehement diatribe offerings I have other concerns with respect to our planet which have nothing to do with the weather, or the Earth itself for that matter.
Mother Nature and the planet are going to sort their own shit out either way.

I agree Doc, over 4.6 billion years of climate change by forces our species will never control and are still learning the existence of.
And yes Donny, snot nosed kids who don't know the difference between weather and climate can stick it where the sun doesn't shine.
We can still do a better job of not shitting in our own beds and we have been making huge strides in that over the past century.

Reminds me of when Leo DeCaprio was filming "The Revenant" in Alberta a few years back. He said he witnessed climate change first hand in Alberta. What he experienced was a regular Chinook which can raise the air temperature from -25 deg C to +5 deg C in a matter of a couple of hours. He thought it was due to climate change
BTW - Chinooks are what make winters bearable in Alberta. You get a couple of cold weeks and then a nice break with temperatures above freezing for anywhere from a couple of days to a week, before it gets cold again for a couple of weeks.

Several years ago, Leo showed up in Belize, bought and promised a state of the art eco friendly resort island.$1.75mil purchase price and the promise of jobs and tax revenue seduced the government and many locals. Never been built partly because environmental groups say it will destroy mangrove and fish breeding grounds.

...so moreso a life sentence as opposed to a simple penalty then.
