The "truth" about global warming is that the people who took away our freedoms under the cover of the China virus are going to do the same thing in the name of climate change. Open your eyes. Take notice of the goings on in the ghastly, unelected World Economic Forum, founded by an 82 year old German fascist. Listen to politicians who have publicly said, without the slightest embarrassment, that now they have got people accepting the loss of their freedoms during the China virus, they should be able to get away with the same thing to 'fix' climate change. Listen to HRH Prince Wackjob spruiking the "opportunity" to reset everything without interfering with his privileged existence. Just bloody listen instead of putting out homespun opinions.

Mr O tells us he was an engineer, but obviously either does not have enough math to understand the Global Warming hypothesis, or knows his whole value system will be destroyed if he actually reads the truth.

Poor old Aidan actually believes all the bill with his acceptance of rubbish like "wind is cheaper than fossil fuels".

Prey tell when the first wind farm is built with out subsidy, & when it supplies it's own back up. Then I'll be all for wind. Meanwhile he is all just hot air.

runner,
gw deniaism is now a religion for the deluded to preach to the masses. And why would the Chinese be laughing with uneconomic coal plants they built for political reasons?

It is obvious Aiden that you are learning from Greta.

Aidan,

You know who we need on OLO Forum?

A philosopher.

I put my trust in philosophers to steer us in the right direction. They have a knack for doing that sort of stuff.

Speaking of royal wackjobs, next in line to the throne, William, has started bleating about climate change. Given Charles, William and Ginger (not a royal anyway) and their dragging of the good name of the Monarchy and our admirable Queen into grubby politics, with two of them cavorting with commoners, the UK might drop them after the Her Majesty's passing before we do.

Conjecture does not equate to truth. And seeing as how governments failed to take effective action on climate change at all, the claim that they'd take away our freedoms to achieve that objective are highly illogical. That you take those claims seriously shows far more about your prejudices than anything anyone else plans to do!

> Take notice of the goings on in the ghastly, unelected World Economic Forum,
This forum is also unelected. Do you regard it as ghastly too?

> founded by an 82 year old German fascist.
Though its founder is now 82, he founded it nearly half a century ago. And on what evidence do you base the claim that he is, or ever was, a fascist?

Hasbeen,
As an engineer myself, I can tell you that understanding global warming doesn't require a great deal of mathematical knowledge or ability. You just need to understand the key processes and have a sense of how outputs relate to inputs.

Considering your apparent failure to grasp the above, I'm wondering: do you lack that sense?

And yes, I believe the evidence. But again, you seem to fail to understand that, at least for the existing power generation companies, doing nothing is the most lucrative option as it pushes up electricity prices. Without subsidies, no power stations at all are likely to be built for general supply, though mines would continue to invest in wind turbines, solar panels and batteries.

runner,
Greta hasn't had much TV coverage lately, and I haven't actively sought her, so I doubt I am learning from her. It's far more likely that your bias has made false assumptions seem obvious.

When you refuse to debate what the deniers are saying, i doubt you could gain anything by trying to engage them in a philosophical discussion!
