We have a small piece of property on a little lake south of the city. This property is around the famous “Mason Creek” fossil deposit area.
While building a little dock platform our son uncovered some fossil bearing rocks.
Yesterday I broke open a few of the rocks. Amazing that the fossilized ferns still had a green tint. They are 309 million years old! The first time they were exposed to sunlight in 309 million years.
Well why are these fossil beds located in Illinois? It’s because the location was a tropical marshland 309 million years ago and was actually very close to the EQUATOR! It seems our world has been going through climate changes for eons without any human interaction or presence.
We humans are so vain to think that we can have any impact on the changes that our planet 🌎 goes through. Our planet 🌍 heals itself and will survive with or without humans.

Nice try.
Unfortunately, the calculations made over a century ago proved correct.
Back in the age of Coal ... someone did the math ... there would be consequences.
Lo and behold, we see them every day ... every day.
This Rate of Change is not "normal" ... and those changes are self-reinforcing.
Truth be told, we can only adapt ... there's No Way to Slow It Down!
Huge swaths of Siberian permafrost have melted ... they won't freeze again for several millennia, if ever.
Those swamps, unfrozen, are breaking down thousands of years worth of vegetation.
The result is Methane ... much, much worse than CO2 for global warming.
Will the Rats and Cockroaches adapt better than humans?
They do have a longer track record.

Just ask the oil companies about climate change, they know all about it, and funded lots of research that has proven its happening.

We should ask Fauci about climate change. I heard he is an expert scientist with all the answers.

The climate change "crisis" is only about control. It is one of the latest crisis attempt to control your behavior.
Just watch the crisis zealots and their minions demand how you should live... that is all you need to know what this is about.
They continue to regurgitate the old refuted data as if it is gospel. They are same wackjobs that demanded you wear masks and get vaxxed on false information...and will again still repeat the refuted data as gospel.
Their religion is government.

The left would rather destroy oil and cause global famine. They are simply the tools of the elite that want only 500 million on the planet and havent figured out yet that they arent part of the plan.

How about we base future plans on producing a cleaner environment. Can't change a hundred & fifty years of unregulated industrial pollution overnight without causing some pain. Problem is that nobody agrees on anything because big business and their bought and paid for politicians can't see past the end of their noses. There are cleaner technologies out there and new ones being discovered every day. Meanwhile the impacts of pollution are pretty evident.

This is about the CLIMATE CRISIS LIE, not pollution. The lie being used to destroy liberty and economies.
