Student "Turned off" on Dr. Paul's stance on Global Warming

[fluoridatedbrainsoup]

Heh. And history always remembers the sole person that proved accepted theories to be absolutely wrong.

Global warming sounds like a good thing.

Global=all encompassing
Warming=comfort

 

[ButchHowdy]

I'm inclined to believe in man-made global warming simply because Sean Hannity preaches against it!

But really folks, the moment I heard UN reps use the words "Carbon Tax" in the 1990s, the agenda became quite clear to me.

Google: "Leipzig Scientists" There were a 100 or so that were the first to debunk this myth but received little attention, of course.

 

[Richandler]

The mere fact that global warming is approach exactly as the war on terror with no debate and with us or against us mentality shows its propigated roots.

 

[framecut]

Just because I don't believe in global warming doesn't mean I don't care about the environment. That's a nice little assumption people make.

I see all the damage pesticides, pharmaceuticals and genetically modified foods are doing to our environment, yet when I try to tell a so-called "environmentalist" about this stuff they say it's not important. They say it's not important because it's not what their college professor is talking about nor is it on the shiny bright TV.

Look at Starbucks. Environmentalist love this company. They think they are being responsible. Yet they use over 2.3 billion cups a year that cannot be recycled due to the plastic coating inside the cups. That company promotes all those annoying global warming movies to kids and how everything is made with recycled paper. However, their own cups cannot be recycled. Talk about complete bull.
Here is the article for reference. I didn't just make this up out of no where.
Coating on Coffee Cups Puts Lid on Recycling

So why are you supporting Ron Paul?

You realize he'll get rid of the EPA which basically means such things like pesticides will grow in use.

That companies like Starbucks won't have to adhere towards any national recycling mandates.

Why are you supporting Ron Paul?

While there is no doubt that the average temperature has increased by around .6C the last century, and there is no doubt there is an anthropogenic component, I find the likes of Al Gore flying around caliming we have only a few years to act before it's too late completely absurd and hysterical. Gore's claim that there is overwhelming scientific consensus is not correct(and Gore has been quoted that any dissent should be censored in popular media). Gore is only correct that there is a definite consensus that the earth is getting warmer, but there is significant dissent on the extent of the anthropogenic causes, the predictive modeling of climate change, and the proper and reasonable course of actions to take.

For example, , Henrik Svensmark and his team will be testing their cosmic ray hypothesis at CERN later this year. You don't get time at CERN testing out crackpot theories.

My background is physics in college and I've noted that such an eminent scientist like Freeman Dyson has mocked the hysteria of the likes of Al Gore. Another pre-eminent physicist, David Deutsche(btw, a libertarian, and who recently just proved that the Many World interpretation is likely the correct interpretation of Quantum Mechanics) argues that human adaptation to a warmer climate is the only proper course to take.

One for sure, central economic planning and command economies is not the way to go. The EU has had their carbon credit trading scheme in place and it has failed miserably. All the countries cheat. Some UN enforced international carbon emission scheme to 1990 levels is a joke. Countries would cheat and then how would you enforce it? Would you support the use of US military to enforce some global carbon restriction treaty? Would you like if it the UN imposed sanctions on the US if it violated it's carbon quota?

In any event, Dr. Paul's message of bringing our troops home and ending the American Military Empire overseas(our military spending dwarfs the rest of the world) is certainly an environmentally friendly message, given that the US government and the Pentagon is among some of the world's worst polluters. Our neo-mercantilist use of our military overseas is certainly, without doubt, the biggest subsidizer of fossil fuel energy. Dr. Paul, in connecting with environmentally conscious voters, should make this case, that it's specious to talk of a reduction in the global carbon output while the US military is being used, in a very real sense, to protect it.

it's a shame that people don't see the truth.

Global Warming is yet another con that the elite of this world have thought up to control the people. Ironically enough, there's a bit of a clash of ideologies at hand between the elites...some want one world government through global warming (everyone uniting around one massive, yet false, cause) and some want war (which as a plus to them...of slaughtering off hundreds of people while causing instability in general).

for those of you who want to find out more about Global Warming, I suggest you take a look at this documentary: http://video.google.com/videoplay?d...=12&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0

everything about it is a con, in essence....even the so called scientists who support it (many of which are totally against it).

Getting rid of the EPA does not mean that pesticides will grow in use. Starbucks makes "green" attempts to please its customers so that they will shop there. That incentive won't change with Ron Paul in office.

 

[American]

If I'm not mistaken this isnt the first attempt at this "green" movement. If memory serves this was also tried in the late 60's early 70's without success.

This is nothing more then an attempt to control industrial production for small companies to rival with competing products and services.

Starbucks isn't following them now and they are looked upon as this great environmentally friendly company. That's my whole point. The environmentalists don't actually care about the environment. All they care about is the image. Those who truly research the environment and look into what's causing problems are "kooks".

I would imagine another better coffee shop would come into Starbucks place that would be MORE environmentally friendly (for real). And you bet I would go there over Starbucks! Starbucks is the fake environmental crap that I just can't stand. They sell their coffees in bleached cups haha. That's funny enough!

Every thing should be done on a state level, so why are you questioning my support for Ron Paul? I don't want mandate and regulations on a federal level. It just doesn't work, however I don't see use going up at all.

I love Ron Paul on every issue. My big one is 2nd amendment rights.

 

[mavtek]

Yes this is scary to me as well, as my Uncle has reported that his step son is turned off by that. Of course my idiot Uncle impressed this into him.

 

[mavtek]

Maybe we should pass out some endgame DVD's at universities

So, you see a documentary posted on Google video and decided man made global warming is hoax ? Have you researched who made this movie and what their motives could be ?

Here, I will give you the starting point.

I personally believe that global warming is happening. I would like to see anyone to do something to help.

global warming is happening...everyone unanimously agrees with that, it's whether or not its caused by humans. And there-in is the lie.

I encourage anyone and everyone to watch that video...it's a very scientific and straight-forward video that'll probably answer all (or nearly all) of your concerns/questions.


that said, that doesn't mean we shouldn't strive to keep things clean...because, if we didn't, we would damage private property (not to mention people).

 

[mjt]

Global warming is real......but not solely cause by humans. the best conservationists are hunters and farmers(me!). Be good to the environment and it will be good to you.

Global warming is a massive hoax brought to us by the globalists...The numbers come from NASA...

We know government lies about inflation figures and unemployment and WMD's.....so what makes u think they wouldnt lie about Global warming???

Tons of research debunking it but the media only reports the hype

 

[parke]

The good thing is.. that if we rely on Government we see what happens.

The bad thing is.. more people need to realize it.

Wal Mart made it to New Orleans before FEMA and the National Guard.

Which one makes more sense? Free Market or Government?

Global Warming results in more biodiversity, more biomass, better living conditions for humans. Carbon dioxide is an airborn fertilizer for many plants. Let them discover more on this position at www.heartland.org

precisely! It's been shown that given more carbon dioxide, plants grow faster, become bigger, and are more resilient...thus, more food for people, more food for animals, more shelter for animals, more plants to use for projects/etc.
