A line on a chart doesn't change physical reality. The emissions from a person in China are the same as the emissions from a person in Canada, although on average people in Canada emit about twice as much as people in China. The idea that you're not contributing is simply not true and based on...

China is doing more than the US to go towards net zero, emits less per person than the US, and has emitted less in total than the US. Why would we start there rather than in our own backyard? And yes, the planet will be fine. That's an insanely stupid metric to judge the severity of an issue...

We as in humanity. Not sure what living in China or India has to do with anything - there isn't a magical line that separates those countries from the rest of the world and makes their emissions special. Given that you're posting online, you are clearly paying for things that are part of the...

Your personal observations are completely irrelevant to the topic. And no, the vast majority climatologists wouldn't agree that what's currently happening is cyclical. There are many various cycles that drive the climate, but what's happening now isn't part of those cycles - its entirely driven...

You're right, we don't own the planet. So, perhaps we should stop fucking around with the planet's climate system?

Wut. A google search for news stories relating to either el nino or la nina returns results in the millions depending on exact search parameters. Similarly, you can search through my posts for a few years ago and you'll find me repeatedly mentioning the fact that the intense warming was...

Not in modern human history it hasn't - 2023 was the warmest year on record, and 2024 is on track to be even hotter. As for a trend, the last 10 years have been the 10 hottest years in recorded human history. What exactly are you looking for? In another 10 years, when the pattern continues and 8...

Tells you everything you need to know about this hack. This guy makes a living being paid by corporate interests to pretend to be a scientist and say nonsense, usually for other hacks who won't question him on said nonsense.

Is the light projected on a movie screen the same as the projector?

No, it isn't. Conscious experience isn't the brain. You can believe it's produced by the brain, but it absolutely isn't the same as the brain.

And we have a fairly good understanding of the brain. The mind isn't the brain.

The mind isn't an object, and I just explained why it's not well understood by modern science. It can't be investigated through the same methods as physical systems can.

Modern science has a solid understanding of many physical systems. The climate is a physical system that at least at the big picture level, is well understood. Modern science doesn't have a solid understanding of the nature of mind, as it can't be investigated through the same types of methods...

I have no idea what this means. Immune from the logic of what critique? Modern science has a solid understanding of many physical systems. The climate is a physical system that at least at the big picture level, is well understood. Modern science doesn't have a solid understanding of the...

Everything but admit they don't know how to fix her problems, and steer her towards those who do.

Highly recommend checking it out. https://ifs-institute.com/nobadparts

We're not talking about a single case, I'm talking about the entire field.

I have a background in physics and work in a technical field. Just because you have a trivial understanding of the climate issue, doesn't mean I do.

You keep flip flopping back and forth between talking about her right to do something, and doctors being there to do it for her. They're not the same thing. Doctors shouldn't be killing people because they believe their dehydration caused headache is terminal brain cancer.

I'm not grasping at straws, I'm showing the flaws in your argument. You don't think children should be able to make that decision because they don't have all the correct information and understanding required to make such a decision. Its the same thing here. This woman is operating off...
