Perpetual motion/free energy? You might say that there isn't 100% agreement with the free energy thing and point to Youtube as evidence, but the thing you quoted says "Nearly all actively publishing climate scientists" and I think we can agree that the Youtube freetards are not scientists. They're also not published (AFAIK Youtube is not 'publishing' in the science sense). |

China already out-pollutes Finland per capita. Even if all Finns were to commit suicide to try and save the rest of the world (which seems to be the political plan here), all that would change is the Chinese Communist Party would just up their estimate of the point where anthropogenic changes' costs outweigh the benefits of not curbing pollution, by 0.3%. You won't be able to convince the CCP otherwise; their track record is clear. They also have the firepower to protect themselves against attempts at forcible change-of-mind. And USA is no better than that, at all; just more willing to use their war machine to try and force others to bend to their will. The superrrich already have their exit plans ready, having obtained large plots of land they intend to keep anyone else off of. Thus, either we're royally fucked, or we invent some technology that makes it worthwhile for the polluters to reduce their emissions, and some technology to compensate for the effects of whatever large-scale changes in the climate we end up with. And just deal with the increasingly large flows of people from developing countries to Western countries. All this "you individual humans need to stop eating meat and using electricity so that we can save the planet" talk is bullshit, as it will not solve anything. |

Western multinational greed without a care in the world for their local employees shifted lots of production there for just one reason, the $ $ $ |
