Awesome.
Considering how they panicked like fuck when the glacier fell down, its still kind of cool how they edited that bit into the final "original" to make it look like it happened while he was playing

Borgy, I generally like your wits.
Climatology is not your strong suit though. The reason it is called Climate Change rather than Global Warming is to highlight the shifting weather systems caused by the changes in temperature.
That means freak events.
"High ice late in the season" sounds like an unusual event, no?
Did you know that due to global warming we can now grow completely different crops in Europe? Ones that we never could have before. I think that is more compelling proof for business orientated people than anything else I've heard.
It is real. It is irrelevant as population growth will fuck us long before that, but you know... It will be fun whatever ____________________ Top cat

History is not your strong suit.

I'm aware of the theory that heat causes cold, and it's just darling.
Are you aware how close we came to global extinction during the last glacial period and CO2 low? You know at what concentration of CO2 plants can't survive, right?
We should be aiming for at least 500ppm, and wallowing in that lush global greening. Burn, baby, burn. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Now I get not everyone is a Geologist but common people, havent ya'll never seen Ice Age!?
It's not just a novel idea it actually (roughly) what's happened (kind of)?
The
Climate
has
always
Changed.
Period!
And don't be so arrogant to think we're so special that we could be the only cause!
Now I'm not suggesting we don't have an effect on the rate of climate change but it's fucking hilarious people pointing out 'climate change, it's a bad thing because just humans M'kay' and suggesting we are going to keep our climate exactly the same forever more?
Best of luck with that one fruit loops |

We're in an ice age, and overdue a glacial period.
Global temperatures are historically low.
Higher is better. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

But Percy, we will get more bbq days to grill steaks. What possible problems could there be for anyone.
Malthus is coming for us. Pile on the gas, build a big bonfire and burn it up - Make the most of this period of plenty.
You've heard of peak oil, and peak phosporous even...
Well I think we may be reaching peak calories per capita.
The sad thing is, it really is becoming a boom industry all to itself. Feeding the denialism because you can see the hypocrisy.
Six years after this magnificient rant by Stanhope we are just about able to talk about birth rate and population.
It is seriously frustrating, and frankly I may just fuck off to Australia to my mates farm and leave you all to it. ____________________ Top cat

Humanity. I'm rooting for you guys.

You do realise what a glacial period means, right?

A lot warmer, with much higher CO2.
You'll thank me when the taiga opens up for agriculture and habitation.

Have you read... a book?
Well, I've seen a film, and life will find a way. It'll come right, we've survived worse.
And if we don't, then fretting and wailing about won't help. And neither will beggaring ourselves in a religious fervour to appease Gaia.
You do get that climate change is the new religion, right? Dost thou doubt the Holy Word of the Techpriests? Dost thou not respect their esoteric mysteries? Burn the unbeliever! Then sequester his carbon. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I like it. To show us how the global warming is ruining the planet, they used a 30+ years old two stroke diesel boat to get there and tow a piano amongst the glaciers.

What experience do you have in the real world?
That course was over 20 years ago and was a 3 month residential course which enabled me to change career in my early 20's. I worked my way up to technical team leader on a multimillion pound contract at one of the top customers in London, shortly after starting my "screwing computers together course". You went back to school as an adult for years to dodge work.
I have 20 years worth of real work experience to add and now cover a wider range of hardware, software, hosting and networking than you'll ever get to by my age. I even have my own VOIP platform now. Let me know when you've successfully ran your own company for over 15 years and started paying UK tax.

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 6 years, 179 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
