RE: dTube: Trump Earth Day Statement an Orwellian Disaster

in #news7 years ago

I'm old enough to remember scientists warning "acid rain" was going to destroy the world by 1990. Then global warming will end the world by 2000. Under the same goofy ass logic, Dinosaur farts caused the first ice age and the Flintstones caused the second. Who are we humans to decide what the ideal climate the Earth should decide to be? Humans have only been on this planet a small fraction of time on this several billion year old planet. It doesn't take a phd in dumbass to know that a can of hairspray will never compete with the thousands of erupting volcanoes and other weather the Earth has experienced over it's 7+ billion year lifetime. To think that corporations who depend on its consumers are chomping at the bit to dump trash in our oceans is just as stupid. Environ"mental"ist or not, that would be a PR disaster that could easily take any corporation down. I love that the (supposed) only answer to environmentalism is socialism. That in itself is very revealing.

Well said. The Earth goes through natural cycles of temperature over thousands of years. The Ice Age could be seen as global cooling, and the period after could be seen as global warming. It's easy to use this cycle as another means of controlling people.
