I don't like posting this, but let me just say that anyone at this stage who doesn't accept the fact that climate change is taking place and that most of it is caused by human endeavors simply are self-inflicted fools. The science on this has become well-established, and it is the height of arrogance or ignorance (or both) for one to "think" that they know more than what the scientists as NAS, the DoD, NASA, Scientific American, National Geographic, etc. have known for about two decades now.
And anyone who actually blindly swallows what the right-wing propagandists try to convince us of is guilty of having stupidity on steroids.
We are dealing with a basic destruction of the eco-systems throughout much of the world as we are seeing! No one in their right mind should be playing politics on something as serious as this. Some need to grow up and do the damn homework!

Yup. My kids are concerned about politics, economics, climate, and many things, and we don't always agree, simply because they happen to have their own brains to think with.

Trump admin ignored evidence of climate change's impact on migration
Trump admin ignored its own evidence of climate change's impact on migration from Central America
EXCLUSIVE: An internal report obtained by NBC News showed migration surged from those areas where climate change is hurting crops and farmers.

GUATEMALA CITY — Research compiled one year ago by Customs and Border Protection pointed to an overwhelming factor driving record-setting migration to the U.S. from Guatemala: Crop shortages were leaving rural Guatemalans, especially in the country's western highlands, in extreme poverty and starving.
An internal report that was circulated to senior Homeland Security officials and obtained by NBC News showed that migration surged from those areas of Guatemala without reliable subsistence farming or wages from commercial farming jobs. More than 100,000 Guatemalans headed north last year, and many more followed in fiscal year 2019, making Guatemala the single largest country contributing to undocumented immigration across the U.S. southwest border this year.
Scientists have said the increase in poverty and food insecurity driving migration are due to multiple factors, one of which is climate change.
The acting secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees CBP, Kevin McAleenan, has publicly sounded the alarm about Guatemala's food scarcity.

No one is saying pollution isn't a problem.
Anyway, as for her level of knowledge. Garbage in garbage out.
And I'm very angry at liars and con artists. Good luck with that. I really don't care (for myself) how much you guys screw up this world. It's going to be your problem. I don't have kids. Good luck! You trust in fools and foolishness. You'll reap what you sow. Trust me. Go ahead and believe every word. You won't even know what hit you.

Some of my kids now are. All grown up, know stuff I don't, and can do stuff I can't. Feel bad for them taking over this messed up world.
And there you have it, you dont have kids so you dont give a toss how you screw up the world for other peoples kids. How very christian of you
Her main points seem to be give up air travel and stop eating meat.
If she can get politicians like Bernie Sanders to stop abusing fossil fuels.
Ex-Clinton staffers slam Sanders over private jet flights
And, stop eating meat, I'm all for it.

There is no one telling them they are going to die. But scientists from some many different fields have been warning about this for a very long time. Yet no one is able to change the system, it is in an almost completely deadlock of empty words and promises. To be honest I think young people today are more involved in politics than earlier in history, where it was only for the "grown ups" and before that, only for the men, because obviously women knew nothing about politics
Young people are not blind, which one would have to be, to not being able to figure out that if we continue the way we are now, that it will not end well.
So when climate deniers express their opinions in contrast to pretty much all scientists having some connection to the climate issue, as if they know better than them, it sounds hollow and to me the most obvious explanation to why one would deny what they are saying, seems to suggest that we are talking about some huge conspiracy within the scientific community, where every single scientists working with climate issues are in one it.

If science is a scam, what are you using to access the internet? A crystal ball?
Are you serious?

Sadly you would not be. Look at all of the examples we have here. People that are ignorant on that level tend to be immune to education. They are not embarrassed because they do believe themselves to be correct.
