And whatever u do, try not to have nightmares about the impending ice age or the clown-shaped glacier hiding under your bed. BOO! Here’s a science guy who studies and describes climate change not as a political agenda, but as a natural cycle:

And fuck trigger warnings. Fuck them right in the ear.

Krunk, what do you suppose the purpose of some politically motivated climate change conspiracy is?..
 

Perhaps Obama’s crater of a legacy can shed light on that question. A new congressional investigation on Climate Change

“…discovered efforts by the Obama administration to censor the information given to Congress, interfering with the body’s ability to perform critical oversight work.Instead of providing the type of scientific information needed by Congress to legislate effectively, senior departmental officials sought to hide information, lobbied against legislation, and retaliated against a scientist for being forthcoming,” Smith said in a statement. “In this staff report based on lengthy record before the committee, much has been revealed about how senior level agency officials under the Obama administration retaliated against a scientist who did not follow the party line.”

I think the really alarming thing about the rights argument is that you have to completely ignore a lot of information for the information you accept to work.

Like, yes, absolutely we all agree that other things can lead to climate change and that the climate has changed in the past. This is not in dispute anywhere. A large enough meteor hits earth and our climate will change drastically. We know what carbon does to our atmosphere and we know that it is a natural process of heating and cooling based on the chemical make up of our air, and that if we had more volcanoes of significantly larger sizes we would be a lot more like venus, which is scarily a predictor of what we have to look forward to.

We took shit out of the ground and burned it, changed the chemical make up of our sky and we are smart enough to see that in the distant future there are going to be problems.

This is not in question.  Right? These are all things that we can agree on. These are things that the evidence shows. 

The industrial age brought forth a new problem, we significantly increased our carbon emissions. Right? no one denies that this is a thing.

The problem is, the right wants people to believe that the oil industry isn’t at fault and shouldn’t be expected to change. Why? Because change costs money. Our nation was built to promote the idea of driving. Our freeways were created so that people would buy cars, and then buy oil. We invested in our infrastructure because we saw automobiles as being a solution to an old problem and now we’re stuck with consequences we hadn’t anticipated.

Because our actions have consequences.

And I disagree that we do not need to act now. The sooner we act, the less harsh the change will be. Eventually, and I’m talking hundreds, if not thousands of years, we will be at a point where the problem begins to escalate beyond our means of correction and we have to give up the fight and find a different kind of solution.

But in the mean time the arguments are: hey we should start looking at ways to fix this problem we accidentally created v the left wants to make money off your habits and so do I and I’m already making a lot so you know you can’t trust them.

If the problem is really who stands to profit off the global climate change problem, then find better solutions rather than pretending that we aren’t putting a shit ton of carbon in the air, or that chemical changes in our air don’t matter, or that this could have happened in a different time from different sources. None of that negates the truth of the matter which is that we’re in desperate need of solutions, if we want to continue having people live on this planet.

Which, if you don’t, then fine say that. If you simply don’t care about the quality of life after your impending death, fine. That’s on you, but don’t pretend like it’s some altruistic motive of trying to uncover some secret plot to make the global sun market rich.

Interesting, some solutions have been found that don’t rely on everybody switching to solar power: if we paint our roofs white it reflects more sun than it absorbs and we can cool the planet a bit. Also, using power more ethically and thoughtfully. Doing things that strengthen our local economy by purchasing food and other items that are locally farmed or manufactured. These are things that don’t require much investment, government intervention, or reduce our individual use for gas. What a joke.

Can we get back to talking about Octavia E. Butler though? Everybody should read her.

I know change is hard and scary for some of you, but try thinking about the quotes from hers and thinking about change as potential for growth and not potential for more consequences.

Actually, George Bush caused the economic stumble of 2008 which sure as hell did effect a lot of people. Don’t forget the unnecessary war that killed thousands and sunk us into debt. He’s the worst president in recent history. Also, Obamacare took healthcare out of the hands of older people. There are tons of things that have drastic effects on people.

If you’re from where I’m from, there never was a chance to succeed. Unless you hit the lottery or had a connection to the glass company a town over. There’s no way to tell if it would’ve turned out better with a different president, unless we can view other multiverses soon, but it was my fault for trying to make it there. I should have had the foresight to understand that no matter how hard I worked and how much I saved, that it was and is outrageously improbable to survive in that part of the country without being on welfare or knowing someone.

I don’t disagree at all that George Bush Jr. was a disaster on an unspeakable level. He and his cabinet were disastrous on a level that was staggering. Basically what I’m saying from my rant is that I try not to blame anyone but myself for wherever I am in life.
