He’s not funny?

So, I am a natural scientist, and did my graduate work alongside climatologists in the Arctic. The “other side” you’re referencing does’t get as much airplay because it’s scientifically bankrupt. We have ways of testing the claims made in science, and it’s called peer review. Climate skepticism doesn’t make it through…

He’s not another Manchin. He’s relatively close with the oil business, having worked in it until the 80s and it being a huge part of Denver’s economy until pretty recently, but he’s helped pass a bunch of stringent emissions regulations on them as well.

So you’re throwing out a bunch of repeatedly-debunked claims here. NASA did not say there was no global warming (there’s a window from 1998 that looks like a trend if you egregiously cherry pick and ignore longer trends before and after), nor has NOAA changed their temperature data. Some datasets are modified as time…

It won’t though. Combined cycle gas is cheaper, so you would see more of that being installed (as is already happening). Gas is cheaper than coal, and is cleaner. There are plenty of forecasts that look up the impact of greater BEV share, and none of them indicate more coal coming online.

I used to live in Foggy Bottom during the height of the Tea Party. The jackasses who come to DC for conservative protests are the worst of the worst.

Strictly speaking, San Marino did it several hundred years earlier, but they don’t really count.

With the gas prices here, I’d absolutely buy the 4 cylinder. If I were buying an Audi, I’d do it for their excellent interiors, not for the speed.

Because it has a nicer interior, better styling, and more usable infotainment system, and handles better? The 2.0 motor is solid and pretty reliable, so this thing is hardly going to be like owning an Alfa.

“Look! She gets media attention and is therefore the voice of the Democrats! Despite the fact the she has almost no policy influence, has passed no legislation, and is opposed by a much larger section of the party than the one supporting her!”

Your obsession with AOC makes you look deranged, not informed. She literally does not matter to anyone but twitter leftists and hysterical right wingers.

the single dumbest sitting congressman in history

She is a freshman rep, and the right’s obsession with her is completely out of proportion to how much power and influence she actually has. If you think that arguing with her is in any way a refutation of actual science, I pity you. You tell on yourself when you bring her up as if it’s even remotely germane to the…

The right has to argue with non-experts so they can look like they’re winning arguments. Actual scientists can deconstruct denialist talking points incredibly quickly and easily.

and man-made carbon emissions are only ~0.5% of greenhouse gases

as much more of it (and likely more coal)

It would really help denialists tonot look foolish if they would bother to learn basic scientific terms.

human contribution of CO2 is about 3%

That’s where every scientist seems to have differing opinions.
