    We don't have to suffer now to alleviate future suffering. But we have
    to feel some pain. That's true beyond all doubt.

    To feel pain is to suffer. Presumably you mean that the amount of pain
    that needs to be felt is limited.

    I was just reading an article that noted that right now Western nuclear
    power generation is dependent on Russia. But that's an oops that *can*
    be fixed, and so those responsible ought to be working on it. Maybe we
    don't need nuclear power for a renewable future, but some renewables
    seem to require the use of large areas of land. And instead of assuming
    we can reduce our energy usage by cutting out frivolous uses of energy,
    I think it's more realistic to assume we need the capability of using
    enormous amounts of energy, so our factories can churn out tanks and
    airplanes and the like... I mean, we would *like* a world at peace, but
    Russia has shown us that the other fellow is not necessarily going to cooperate.

    She's a sock puppet, with no ideas or knowledge of her eown
    whatsoever. This is not someone to take seriously, nor is anyone
    who *does* take her seriously. She's the punch line of a joke that

    This is yet another example of precisely *why* so many people do
    *not* take the issue seriously. When they *act* like it's all
    either a giant scam, or a joke, it's quite natural for people to
    take them at face value.

    All Greta

    moving her lips while the puppeteer is talking.

    That's because you weren't told to quarrel with it, and you're a

    You sweet, summer child.

    The climate scientists themselves have spoken out. But they
    weren't exciting enough to grab the headlines, so the coverage
    of what they said in the media was quickly buried.

    They're - on paper, at least - actual experts in the field. And
    yet, everything they say and do just convinces those who do not
    already believe them that they are nothing but grifters.

    Making a teenager with no higher education (and no high school
    degree, at the beginning) a millionaire doesn't help that any. In
    fact, it makes it even worse.

    The scientists spoke. One person heard them and believed them.

    More than one person heard Alex Jones and believed him. Serious
    question: Do *you* take them seriously because of that?

    As a young person with many years of life ahead of her,

    And zero extertise in climate science.

    she felt
    that if we were all DOOMED, it would be a particularly bad thing
    for her. So she became energetic in her advocacy. She started a
    movement that got attention.

    And got very wealthy doing so, just any good grifter would do.

    The fault is not in the "climate cabal" or whatever, the fault
    is in how the news media works, concentrating on entertainment
    instead of what is important.

    The fault is *entirely* with the climate science community. They
    spend *decades* waffling back and forth in their predictions of
    doom, from "there's an ice age coming and we're all going to die if
    we don't do something RIGHT NOW (give us money)" to "the world is
    overpopulated and we're all going to die if we don't do something
    RIGHT NOW (give us money)" to the current "the world is overheating
    and we're all going to die if we don't do something RIGHT NOW (give
    us money)".

    Obviously, they were *wrong* on the previous "and we're all going
    to die if we don't do something RIGHT NOW (give us money)"
    predictions, it isn't exactly irrational to believe they're *still*
    as wrong as they have been *100%* of the time in the past -
    especially when they continue to act *the* *same* *way*.

    Thunberg is another example of how the way they act produces the
    exact opposite effect of what they *say* they want. All the world
    renown (in their field) scientists can't convince people of what
    they say, so they bring in a *child* to be their mouthpiece, and
    pretend to take her seriously. That makes everything they say
    *less* credible.

    There are only two possible interpretations:

    Either they know this, or they don't.

    If they don't know this - after *fify* *years* of "doing the same
    thing and expecting different results", they're so fucking stupid
    (or mentally ill) they should be institutionalized for their own
    safety, and they *certainly* can't be taken seriously.

    If they do know this, then their *actual* goals are - obviously -
    not what they *say* their goals are. And this is *entirely*
    consistent with the facts on the ground, like the raging hypocricy
    of people like Al Gore telling people - literally - that everyone
    (else) has to take cold showers in the dark to save the planet,
    while flying around in his private jet, and riding in limos to
    conferences with all the other hypocrites, and paying an electric
    bill on one of his mansions (paid for with family tobacco money)
    that is more than the average person's income. The insane
    ramblings, impossible goals, and deliberately offensiveness. And
    amassing of ever more personal wealth. Know what that all adds up
    to? It's all - 100% of it - what you see with successful *cults*.

    And one of the necessary methods of cults - one they can't survive
    without - is literally *insane* dogma, literally *impossible*
    goals, with the specific goal of making their followers look so
    crazy nobody normal will have anything to do with them. This
    isolates the followers, and keeps them away from normal people,
    where they might figure out how fucking *crazy* they've become.

    It might well be that the current "and we're all going to die if we
    don't do something RIGHT NOW (give us money)" predictions are true,
    but it *doesn't* *matter* if nobody will believe them, and nobody
    believes them.

    Apparently, all these brilliant scientists are too fucking stupid
    to understand the moral of The Boy Who Cried Wolf.

    Certainly, you are.

    Thunberg is a modern-day Moaist who, like others of her kind, are using the environment to try to bring in a totalitarian world government under the costume of climate justice.
    The anti-Christ , according to some, will come under this pretext, saving the world, the environment, green living etc....

    The World Economic Forum (WEF) and Great Reset are not arcane conspiracy theories, their agendas are right out in plain view and they are no longer hiding it.

    The Great Reset is the name of the 50th annual meeting of the World Economic Forum, held in June 2020. They want to create a soft one-world government by 2030.

    The Great Reset is a one world order, communist, push across the globe. I hope every person researches it and it'll help them understand exactly what is happening. It's the EVIL blueprint for what these globalist overlords have in store for ALL of us.
    Hence the reason why they're tearing down national borders as well.

    There are three components to the New World Order (NWO). A one world government which is geopolitical, a one world religion which is New Age, and a one world digital programmable currency system.

    The Book of Revelation discusses a one world government. It has nothing good to say about it.

    That made me smile because, as I am a Johannine Christian first and foremost, the last Johannine work is a masterpiece in so many ways in the proper spirit.

    Its outward descriptions are not just mathematical but geometric so those pursuing gematria are barking up the wrong tree.

    What does it matter what it cost?

    Since we are discussing the ways in which Thunberg has financially

    Who cares if she has financially benefited? That's good. People should

    Well, in another post, he claimed that climate scientists behaved in such
    a way as to drive him, and other sensible people like him, to the conclusion that they were just making up stories about possible disaster to steer more research funding their way.

    Given that mindset, of course he doesn't think that what Greta Thunberg
    is doing is benefiting the human race, and cynically attributing a corrupt motive to her comes naturally.

    Never mind money, though. Sure, going around the world and leading
    large-scale demonstrations is much more fun than just dutifully
    attending classes at school every day. However, even if global warming
    *were* a hoax (which notion, of course, is absurd nonsense) this does
    not mean she would be _in_ on that hoax. And so I think her motive is
    an obvious - and highly praiseworthy - one.

    She is doing what she is doing... because no one else was doing it.

    "If not me, then who? If not now, then when?" Yup. Good old Rabbi
    Hillel. Glad somebody listened to him.

    No doubt he thinks that the Mississippi drying up is just due to a
    coincidental hot spell, which does not at all add to the evidence that our range of typical weather has shifted towards warmer weather because
    of global warming.

    I didn't realize that Paul Ehrlich (or any of the other people who
    called attention to the potential dangers of overpopulation) was a
    climate scientist.

    In any case, while we are feeding more people than had previously
    been thought possible, thanks to the Green Revolution and its
    unsung spearhead Norman Borlaug... surely it is _not_ far-fetched
    speculation that people could out-breed available food resources.

    Particularly since the historical record shows that they've kept doing
    that over and over.

    And the scientific fact that we happen to be living in the middle of
    an ice age, with our current mild weather due to also living in a brief interglacial period, which might end in a mere 10,000 years - or less -
    has *not* been overthrown or disproven at all.

    It's _still_ a scientific fact. What the scientists back then didn't
    realize - just like everyone else - was that the fossil fuel use of
    humanity was becoming so huge that it was actually going to make
    measurable changes in the composition of the Earth's atmosphere.

    That had never happened before in all of our history. Yes, the world's industrial output was growing, so it was larger than ever before - but
    no one noticed anything out of the ordinary, so no one sat down and
    did the math in advance to find out that this was going to change very
    soon.

    No: there had to be some noticeable effects - even if they were
    just measurements of the proportion of carbon dioxide, and not
    dramatic droughts and so on - to turn the attention of scientists in
    that direction.

    So we've managed to overcome being in the middle of an ice age, and
    shift things drastically in the other direction. Imagine if we *weren't* in
    the middle of an ice age!

    Typical fascist lefty lie.

    Being *able* to take a year off and travel the world is much nicer
    than what she wants to reduce everyone else to.

    However, even

    is

    If intentions matter, and actual results do not, then you *must*
    find Jim Jones praiseworthy, since he believe he was doing God's

    Or you're a lying hypocrite, as usual.

    And we both know which it is, don't we?

    She is doing what she is doing... because no one else was doing

    You don't know, having no credentials in the subject.

    And neither does Greta Thunberg. Like you, she's a sock puppet
    moving her lips when her handlers move their fingers.

    That's good. People

    Always? Really? Muggers should benefit from their actions?
    Murderers should benefit from their actions?

    More to the point, grifters should benefit from their actions?

    Especially when they're good

    Most people do not consider destroying their standard of living
    (while those doing so get rich doing it), shorting their lifespans
    (while those doing so get rich doing it), and reducing everyone
    (but themselves) to indentured servitude (while those doing so get

    But then, you're already a cult member who knows full well that

    yout betters tell you you're better off without all the things you
    can't afford because you're a pathetic loser who can't hold down a
    job.

    I didn't realize that Paul Ehrlich (or any of the other people

    Same rhetoric, same fear pandering for money, same 100% failure
    rate. A difference which makes no difference is no difference. In
    short, when the average person can't tell them apart, they will
    treat them all the same.

    In any case, while we are feeding more people than had
    previously been thought possible, thanks to the Green Revolution
    and its unsung spearhead Norman Borlaug... surely it is _not_
    far-fetched speculation that people could out-breed available
    food resources.

    "Stanford biologist Paul Ehrlich wrote in his best-selling 1968
    book The Population Bomb, “In the 1970’s, hundreds of millions of
    people will starve to death” because of overpopulation. (Later
    editions modified the sentence to read “In the 1980’s.”)"

    Where are the hundreds of millions corposes stored?

    100% failure rate.

    People who actually understand demographic trends are *far* more
    concerned with *falling* birth rates, already below replacement
    levels in many western nations (and China, last I heard).


    Particularly since the historical record shows that they've kept
    doing that over and over.

    Very few famines have been caused by lack of food. Nearly always,
    they're caused by deliberate political policy. Genocidal policy, as
    often as not.

    And the scientific fact that we happen to be living in the
    middle of an ice age, with our current mild weather due to also
    living in a brief interglacial period, which might end in a mere
    10,000 years - or less - has *not* been overthrown or disproven
    at all.

    Which is to say, you just admitted that the people who claim it has
    been conclusively proven - no possibly question - that it's all
    caused by human activity are either lying or full of shit.

    Yes. You did.

    It's _still_ a scientific fact. What the scientists back then
    didn't realize - just like everyone else - was that the fossil
    fuel use of humanity was becoming so huge that it was actually
    going to make measurable changes in the composition of the
    Earth's atmosphere.

    And what's not known *now*? You don't know, and neither does anyone
    else.

    That had never happened before in all of our history. Yes, the
    world's industrial output was growing, so it was larger than
    ever before - but no one noticed anything out of the ordinary,
    so no one sat down and did the math in advance to find out that
    this was going to change very soon.

    And their predictions have been 100% wrong. Every. Time.

    No: there had to be some noticeable effects - even if they were
    just measurements of the proportion of carbon dioxide, and not
    dramatic droughts and so on - to turn the attention of
    scientists in that direction.

    So we've managed to overcome being in the middle of an ice age,
    and shift things drastically in the other direction. Imagine if
    we *weren't* in the middle of an ice age!

    And again, though you won't understand it, and will lie about it in
    the future, it *doesn't* *matter* if they're right this time -
    after 50 or 75 years of doom crying while being wrong 100% of the
    time - it *doesn't* *matter* when they present their case in such
    as way that *causes* people to not believe them. And after 50 or 75
    years, they can't possibly *not* know that's the end result of what
    they're doing.

    So what's the real agenda? It *clearly* must involve *preventing*
    any effective measures to change things. Because if they were so
    stupid they didn't understand that's what they're causing - with 50
    or 75 years of expereince, they wouldn't be able to walk and
    breathe at the same time.

    Of course, I disagree with you.

    But sometimes it seems to me that _another_ group of people,
    also opposed to global warming, is aiming at just that. Even in
    that case, I don't really think that it's their intention.

    That is, the "green" activists.

    Because they don't just oppose fossil fuels, they also strongly
    oppose nuclear power. Since nuclear power allows for a basically
    unlimited energy supply, while renewables are often constrained
    by the amount of land they use, nuclear is a carbon-free form of
    energy that obviously _could_ work, and it wouldn't cause the
    paralyzing fear that if we addressed carbon emissions, we would
    damage the economy severely, throwing many people out of
    work.

    When it comes to the climate scientists, though, I think that it's
    obvious that they're not stupid - stupid people don't pass
    first-year Calculus - and they're not malicious either. But as there
    is that common human failing of judging other people by using
    oneself as the standard... the problem is their naive and touching
    faith in human nature.

    They think that if things are explained to people in simple enough
    language for them to understand, then they will behave rationally.

    In the real world, the only way people will listen to someone who is
    telling them what they don't want to hear... is if that person has first
    built up a *lot* of trust beforehand.

    So you've touched on a real issue. But the problem isn't so much
    that scientists have been acting like Chicken Little in the past. These
    other past disaster predictions you cited were, for the most part, left
    as curiosities in magazines about science - there was no real effort
    made to get the public ready to _do_ something about those previous
    impending disasters.

    Oh, no. If you want the _real_ reason why a huge chunk of the American population doesn't trust what scientists say - you need to look somewhere
    else. Start by looking at *which* chunk of the population thinks that way.

    The Trump voters.

    What issue might those people have had with science before
    global warming came along?

    Phrased like this, it becomes *obvious* why the oil companies had such
    ready material to shape to their ends.

    Those *scientists* are trying to tell us that people descended from apes, when everyone knows that God formed Adam out of the dust of the Earth, and
    formed Eve out of Adam's rib! The Bible is the Word of God, and how could an omniscient God not know how life really came to be?

    *This* is the root of the problem. This is why so many people are
    unable to understand how effective science is as a method for finding
    out the truth, and instead treat the conclusions of scientists as no more
    than anyone else's opinion. Because the way they think is encapsulated
    by the preceding paragraph.

    Again, evidence for this claim? You might be right, I
    have no clue... and I suspect that you do not, either...
    you are just guessing...

    I do remember _one_ news item about Greta Thunberg
    hitching a ride from someone who was crossing the Atlantic
    in a solar-powered boat.

    How much did the boat cost? How pay for it? She didn't, but
    she certainly didn't hesitate to make use of all that money.

    And *somebody* spend a lot of money feeding her, housing
    her, etc., for the trip of "several months."

    And Wikipedia, of course, won't mention how much money was
    raised as a result, nor what organziations it was raise for,
    or how much was spent on her.

    Must be nice to be wealthy enough to take a year off to
    cruise around the world.

    What does it matter what it cost?

    Since we are discussing the ways in which Thunberg has
    financially benefitted from being a sock puppet, how could is
    possibly *not* matter?

    Who cares if she has financially benefited?

    Anybody with a brain in their head.

    Well, that rules you out.

    I know you are, but what am I?

    She lives in a Western industrialized nation, so I would not

    On top of that, it is of Sweden that she is a native; that is a
    country that tries to take care of even its poorest citizens.

    And she is white.

    And as she has her girlish figure, and is of a slim and athletic

    Perhaps I _should_ have just addressed the obvious issue directly.

    Since she went to great lengths to arrange for a trip on someone's solar-powered sailboat... at least she is going to great lengths to
    avoid the _appearance_ of hypocrisy.

    She asks people to use less fossil fuels, not to miss meals.

    Since she is young, and lives in Sweden, I have no difficulty in
    believing that she can get to where she needs to go by using
    the bicycle or public transit.

    This is quite unlike the situation in the United States, where one of
    the reasons black people have limited employment opportunities
    is because public transit adequate to going to work every day tends
    not to be available in many American cities, or so I have read.

    It has just never occurred to me to even suspect Greta Thunberg of
    hypocrisy, and the sort of hypocrisy of which Al Gore is often
    accused strikes me as...utterly irrelevant to the issue.

    This does not mean, though, that I think she is without fault. I do
    tend to suspect her, and others like her, of... naïveté.

    Ever since about 1968, the economy has been in such a state that
    a great many people's hopes for the future have been crushed. So they're
    in no mood to hear anything that is going to stand in the way of bringing
    the economy back to what it is supposed to be: what it was in the early 'sixties, so that everyone, after high school, can get married and start
    a family - because they will get a job that will shortly lead to a car and then a house in the suburbs.

    Or if you can't afford a house in the suburbs, at least make the place where you do live safe and crime free.

    The oil embargo of 1973 showed how important plentiful energy supplies
    are to the economy. Solar panels didn't fill the slack then, and so there's no reason to believe that they can do it now. Powering whole cities on batteries? Are they crazy? And look at Ted Kennedy preventing a windmill farm from
    ruining his view.

    While it may be true that such things are trivial compared to "we're all DOOMED",
    they still impact the political process which needs to work if anything is going to
    get done.

    That's why my answer is nuclear power. We've had nuclear power plants for decades. We _know_ they work, we know they can provide lots of electricity, and they don't use up acre after acre of land. The fact that some quiche-eating libs
    don't like them... is just a *bonus* to the voting bloc that has to be won over.

    Because the pitch for wind and solar and all that warm and fuzzy stuff... usually
    mentions conservation and lifestyle. And if what we need is more and more bigger
    and bigger factories to send tanks to Ukraine, that doesn't fly. Nuclear power plants, on the other hand, are consistent with the kind of massive industrial output
    that won World War II.

    I'm still waiting for someone to tell me how much that boat cost to
    build and operate. I'll be the yearly operational costs are more
    than most people make.

    It must be nice to be able to "take a year off" and sail the world.
    a luxury few people have, and even fewer will have in the future if
    she gets her way.

    She asks people to use less fossil fuels, not to miss meals.

    The greens do, in fact, want to make people eat things they
    consider more friendly to the environment. That means no meat, no
    processed foods of any kind, etc.

    She is, BTW, vegan, and wants you to be as well - probably with the
    same "I can't control my emotions because having a temper tantrum
    like a two year old with a dirty diaper has always gotten me what I
    want" enthusaism.

    "In a video posted online, the Swedish climate activist urged
    people to change what they eat, warning bluntly: “If we don’t
    change, we’re f****d.”"

    So if you eat meat, or dairy products, or *anything* that involves
    animals in the production, you are, according to Saint Greta, evil
    and deserve to die.
