ozimoron Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 2 minutes ago, Keep Right said: OK, call me a zealot, climate change is overblown! Then in my opinion you deserve to be labelled as one. Scientists overwhelming state that we are in an existential crisis over climate change. Claiming that the overwhelming majority of scientific opinion is wrong has to be zealotry unless a credible argument can be put to counter that scientific opinion. I never see any.

You can either agree with the generalisation or not as you wish. Then preface it with the term “In general some people will fit this description———-“. I do not imply that you fit into a certain definition because I do know what your beliefs are. Edited January 18, 2023 by sqwakvfr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every would be a good alternative. Denial of overwhelming scientific opinion is zealotry. There's no kind way to describe deniers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for climate change, it's irrelevant to my life, I don't care and I have no intention of changing my lifestyle to suit nutters. PS. I generate 70-80% of all my own electricity and accuse anyone that generates less while advocating 'climate change' alarmism, both a fool and a hypocrite.

Nobody said that all the science was known but anthropomorphic climate change sure as hell isn't going to be proven false or anything other than an existential emergency. The only science that's unknown is exactly how the climate reacts to greenhouse gases and how to go about stopping or reversing it and where the tipping points are.

At the age of 20, I'd expect her to know better. No doubt if Tate had referred to the size of Thunberg's genitalia you'd be clutching your pearls about the horror of it all. Double standards yet again. She was just lowering herself to Tate's level...???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vote for the political parties who promise to do the most to combat climate change. Arguments in the same vein as your question like I flew to Thailand on a jet are just childish, as an example. Climate change can only be halted by collective action. It is an international problem because we all live on the same planet. I believe this single truth is the reason so many deny it is a problem.

The woman has more grit than anyone on ASEAN Now and is no one's mouthpiece. Her smile while being detained says "You fell into my trap and put this local protest in a global spotlight". I look forward to the day she becomes Swedish PM. She won't win because no one wins against any government. As for any grit she may have, is firmly lodged in her brain. She is just a puppet. With Sanctions affecting Europe more than it's intended target (Russia). Europe has no choice but to burn coal or scrap the sanctions. She is becoming irrelevant.
