Er, his name wasn't even Jesus idiots!

Carbon trading was proposed long after climate change was widely accepted. In fact, the climate-change skeptical US (as it was then) insisted that it was included in the Kyoto Treaty (which it then didn't ratify) to the annoyance of other nations?

What's all this UK stuff? I thought the Olympics this year was in London, Minnesota (pop. 1251)?

Engineers, geologist and geophysicists are NOT climate scientists. Neither are astronauts.

Comparing against the aging 737 seems disingenuous. The 737 first flew in 1967.

Haha! Thanks! Brain fart there.

I was ready to put a couple of hundred down on the clock version...

A piece of advice, never reference the Daily Mail. They misinterpret and deliberately distort scientific finding all the time. The journalists who work there are not scientists and they do not understand scientific papers or the process of peer review. They most certainly never read the papers all the way through and

Also, what do you mean "it either is or it isn't"? There are always scientists with different hypotheses and interpretations of the data in ANY field. Anthropomorphic climate change has a much higher level of consensus than almost any field of science.

Oh, yes it is 97% of climate scientist actively publishing in the field (and publishing means peer-reviewed journals).

What global cooling guys? In the 1970s there were something like 4 papers out of the dozens published in the, then very new, field of climate science that discussed the possibility of the world moving towards another ice age.

That's why people generally prefer to call it "climate change" these days. It's a more nuanced term.

You can't win with idiots who think they are experts and disregard the consensus of 97% of climate scientists either.

Burgers are junk food because they are unhealthy. Added vitamins and minerals do not make balanced nutrition and don't compensate for the high-saturated fats and (usually) sodium.

There's been a big change in the quality of food in the UK in the last few decades. Unfortunately American views of another country are almost always based on old stereotypes.

What are you talking about? Pizza in America (well at least here on the West Coast) is almost always terrible! I've had much better pizza in the UK.

Red meat and white bread without vegetables is junk food!

Yeah, I agree in this case!

Pizza Hut in the UK is different from here in the US. It seems aimed at a slightly higher-end segment of the pizza market. They also do occasional specials. I'm sure I saw a curry pizza advertised in the window once.

I think you're going from one extreme to the other.
