SMH Collapse article

Nice find bce1!   


"This article conflates climate change with extinction. When the extinction of species is a just a natural progression in the cycle of evolution. All species and groups of species follow a sequence of origin, expansion, diversity, contraction, and finally, extinction. And that includes the human species. Like it or not, at some stage we will become extinct, and that event will be independent of climate change. In the meantime, we will adapt to the inevitable changing climate."

I've been saying the above all my adult life!!  What part do these scientist bullshit artists not understand??? Humans are not an exclusive life form!  Neither are they excluded from the natural order of birth, life and death!  Arrogant greens  really need to get on board with the evolutionary main game / program! 

Anyone who passed grade 2 would understand the basics of lifecycles and foodwebs. You keep taking options off the table from the animals and plants that rely on them then things begin to change. How much it changes and the effects this has is starting to be realised. Human activity has played a major part in destabilising these basic systems who really knows what that outcome will culminate into but i’m not confident that business as usual is the best forward planning strategy.

There's no need to state ridiculous situation as an excuse to do nothing about a situation that wouldn't take many changes to fix. 

Nothing ridiculous about it.  Thermonuclear war is likely to be a part of the difficulties that arise resulting from climate drift.  And having studied (among other things) evolutionary biology at Uni it is clear that bouts of new speciation follow bouts of extinction.

Yeah. I should have said 'help the planet'. It'll be quite a trial for 'us'. But our species will choose that path rather than give up our current system voluntarily.

To me......
Important details to keep in mind.
The planet has had 5 known extinctions before.. This has happened over several billion years... Could anything, anyone have stopped it ??
How many cycles of cooling, or warming has the planet gone through in even 1 billion years ?? Lots I'm going to suspect.

The next big extinction could happen by the end of this century.. How many of us will be alive at the end of this century ??

I found a book in the library discards we recycle to free book shelves with a title like "how to make money with climate change" type of title. It was all about how to buy and sell stocks in climate change companies, and companies that did or didn't buy into climate change and strategies like that.

Essentially how to harvest money off climate change from both for or against the movement sides.

This book confirmed my thoughts on the whole of this movement pretty much since day one...

My 5 cents of opinion....

It isn't politicians highlighting climate change, it's scientists and those who understand the consequences of what is being found. Politicians are largely against doing anything meaningful about climate change, to the point that it has taken decades and thousands of protests to get some of them to even acknowledge it. Tax it? They don't even understand it.

No, but it is a wholly pointless activity. A mild irritation at best. It doesn’t achieve anything - it is all smoke and mirrors 
The politicians think in electoral cycles.
i accept some people here ‘don’t believe’ in climate change.
Everyone is entitled to hold an opinion. But talk to any geologist, population biologist, meteorologist, oceanologist, atmospheric scientist, water scientist..... and you will get a consistent answer about this - the atmosphere is warming, there are major consequences, the time frames are condensing, we still don’t understand the interactions between feedback loops and we are in a world of sh!t. You don’t have to agree with them, but let’s not pretend there is any real lack of consistency among mainstream scientists on this.

Im a doctor not a physical scientist - I am happy to be guided by the experts. 
The vaccine debate is full of the ‘Dunning-Kruger’ effect - so is climate science.

Ultimately I am prepping for any situation - but climate disasters is on the list.
