    And there it is. Climate change is nothing more than an excuse for the left to raise taxes.

    There is no reason to raise federal taxes as localities will pay for preparations and repairs/Upgrades as needed as they have been. Federal response should be limited to FEMA and international agreements when required. It is simply not possible to mount an effective or competent federal plan to combat climate change and it would be pointless anyway as any response must be global in scale. Charging non coastal states for coastal defenses would be unfair and inappropriate.

    Maybe you don't remember what you said?

    Dah. The only institution that can fight the ravages of climate change here in the US is the US and local govs through taxes. The more severe the effects, the more your taxes will go up. Corporations don’t want to be taxed, along with their customers out of existence if the ravages of climate change get too severe. The more we wait, the higher the costs for tomorrow. It’s a business decision support climate change programs.

    Yes, and you still can’t read. Do you know what “ ravages of climate change” means ? The costs of waiting and dealing with the aftermath of storms and increased terrorism caused by displaced people’s ALL cost more then converting to non CO2 and methane producing strategies. Reverting back to increased coal production is the move of an idiot. Developing alternatives through research is CHEAPER. Of course, you don’t see it. You’ve been Out Fauxed .

    Care to explain that? You repeatedly call for raising taxes and that is your solution. It shows what I've always said. This whole AGW hysteria is a way to raise taxes.

    You still can’t read. I call for lower tax rates by converting to alternative energy forms.
    No I don’t care to explain anymore. It does no good to explain anything to someone who believes in the tooth fairy and not science.

    Guess I missed the part where you called for lowering taxes. All I saw was you saying they needed to be raised. Just out of curiosity how would you pay for converting to more expensive alternative energy by lowering taxes? Maybe that tooth fairy you earlier referred to?

    Your blind beliefs, fantasies and superstitions are not science.
    You din't read the links did you?
    There have been absolutely no practical use of evolution except of 3 cases:

    Let’s get real. Few State govs. and Municipalities can afford reasonable efforts without federal grand monies for capital expenses. Grant money for police cruisers, municipality fire engines and other emergency vehicles are available to poorer communities which is the norm in most red states. They live off the feds. . The entire army/air national guard emergency response effort and coast guard is co funded by the feds. None of that exists for emergencies without federal funds. You guys live in a Faux bubble. If these funds were all shut off, your local property, sales, state income taxes would jump dramatically. It does every time there is a cut in federal taxation. Local taxes go up in poorer states.

    Now pretend how ignorant you are by admitting you don’t know how to use the search function on web sites.

    While you continue to diss man’s efforts to double your life expectancy using medical science, your “ god” allows 20k plus children every day to die of treatable diseases. Why ? Probably because these children under five have not accepted Jesus as their savior according to evangelicals. What an ignorant idea.
    Thoughts and prayers lag far behind penicillin alone in saving lives. Has your god make life saving inoculations from evolution theories and radiation cancer treatments from quantum theory ? Probably not.

    How about I instead point out you do not seem to be good at insult regardless of your attempt and that you obviously lack the ability to read when words are placed before you.

    I will pray to Logicaticus for the redemption of your short form in hopes of annuity actualization.

    since you have absolutely no objections my words stand all correct:

    High CO2 levels cause plants to thicken their leaves, could worsen climate change effects
    October 1, 2018


    Read more at: https://phys.org/news/2018-10-high-co2-thicken-worsen-climate.html#jCp

    Excerpt:

    But the consequences of this physiological response go far beyond heftier leaves on many plants. Two University of Washington scientists have discovered that plants with thicker leaves may exacerbate the effects of climate change because they would be less efficient in sequestering atmospheric carbon, a fact that climate change models to date have not taken into account.

    In a paper published Oct. 1 in the journal Global Biogeochemical Cycles, the researchers report that, when they incorporated this information into global climate models under the high atmospheric carbon dioxide levels expected later this century, the global "carbon sink" contributed by plants was less productive—leaving about 5.8 extra petagrams, or 6.39 million tons, of carbon in the atmosphere per year. Those levels are similar to the amount of carbon released into the atmosphere each year due to human-generated fossil fuel emissions—8 petagrams, or 8.8 million tons.

    "Plants are flexible and respond to different environmental conditions," said senior author Abigail Swann, a UW assistant professor of atmospheric sciences and biology. "But until now, no one had tried to quantify how this type of response to climate change will alter the impact that plants have on our planet."

    As it was expected you quoted out of the context and never addressed a single word you quoted.
    God, Jesus, evangelicals... where are they in my post.

    And what are you bubbling about penicillin?
    Fleming was a devoted Roman Catholic and a creationist, Chain publicly pointed that theory of evolution is no theory and did not belong to science.

    There have been absolutely no practical use of evolution except of 3 cases:
    - inhumane acts type of Virginia Act of 1923,
    - inhumane acts of Hitlerism
    - inhumane acts of Marxism-Leninism.

    I can only add that you know nothing about medicine or about anything else.

    May and may not...
    Another day, another model - garbage in and garbage out.
    Scientists don't know that for centuries gardeners have been building up high levels of CO2 in greenhouses to promote growth of the green produce and high levels of CO2 never provided any warming effect in the greenhouses.
    Another day, another model - garbage in and garbage out.

    CO2 warming / Climate change is a total hoax with no science, no reality and no rationality in it.

    This is exactly what deniers were saying about the link between smoking and cancer, sulfur dioxide and acid rain, CFCs and ozone depletion, and the list goes on. In each case there was massive evidence to support these links and then Fred Singer and the like came along and sold doubt to the public. When the money dried up for smoking denial, acid rain denial, and then CFC denial he had to move on to something else to be wrong about so he picked global warming. He's the father of this con job just like the ones before it. This is your hero. He is your merchant of doubt and you bought his product. Lord Kelvin is rolling in his grave right now.
