Why would we be interested in a histrionic opinion piece published on a political website?

Why would we be interested in a histrionic opinion piece published on a political website?
There's zero evidence that the U.S. blew it up. Stop spreading Russian disinformation.If the US is worried about CO2 emissions, it should probably stop blowing up pipelines and releasing record-levels of CO2 into the atmosphere
Doesn't exist.The current religion of climate change
Tin foil hattery won't make the evidence go away.is about controlling the masses and relieving people of their money.
No one is claiming humans going to destroy the earth.Man will not destroy the planet, at least those that believe scripture know that will not happen.
Tell me about it. All those climatologists driving to work in their Champagne powered Ferraris is disgusting!Why is it so hard to see the power and money behind this fear fest?
And humans died before the invention of gunpowder. There being natural causes for things does not preclude there being human causes.For the umpteenth time I have not said it was benign, I have said it has been happening throughout history without the aid of mankind.
Why would I take seriously a highly editorialized piece from Fox that quotes someone from the Competitive Enterprise Institute? I'd rather look at the actual regulations being proposed and hear from manufacturers themselves.Maybe you should do your own work , see post #300
Either the US destroyed the pipeline, or Ukraine did (probably with the help of the US)There's zero evidence that the U.S. blew it up. Stop spreading Russian disinformation.

How America Took Out The Nord Stream Pipeline
The New York Times called it a “mystery,” but the United States executed a covert sea operation that was kept secret—until nowseymourhersh.substack.com
Intelligence Suggests Pro-Ukrainian Group Sabotaged Pipelines, U.S. Officials Say (Published 2023)
New intelligence reporting amounts to the first significant known lead about who was responsible for the attack on the Nord Stream pipelines that carried natural gas from Russia to Europe.www.nytimes.com
I can't believe people can be so clueless as to think Russia blew up its own pipeline, when that makes zero logical sense, and there is no proof of it. Biden said he was going to take out the pipeline, and had motivation to do it. Ukraine also had motivation to do it.
so we know who is to blame for this environmental catastrophe
Yeah, Russia would NEVER false flag an "attack" on a liability which is what Nordstream 1 became when the Europeans stopped buying gas and Vlad didn't have a way to shut it down when it was full of gas. Sure, I'M the clueless one.Either the US destroyed the pipeline, or Ukraine did (probably with the help of the US)

and for what end would Putin stage a false flag, blow up his own pipeline? How does that make any sense at all?Yeah, Russia would NEVER false flag an "attack" on a liability which is what Nordstream 1 became when the Europeans stopped buying gas and Vlad didn't have a way to shut it down when it was full of gas.

So what? All climate scientists know that the climate has oscillated in the past. They even gave this a fancy name: Milankovic cycles. The average climate scientists knows something - some tiny little bit - about past climates. That's quite the essence of their job.For the umpteenth time I have not said it was benign, I have said it has been happening throughout history without the aid of mankind.
Nah, I expect cockroaches to do fine.Your right that the rock we call Earth will be here long after we make it uninhabitable for human beings and other living creatures.
Yes, there has been natural oscillations in the past. However, the industrial revolution beginning circa1880, took over from the natural oscillations of the past. Over the past half-century fossil fuel use is up around eight-fold since 1950, and roughly doubling since 1980.So what? All climate scientists know that the climate has oscillated in the past.

This is a good point.
If we were to live back then, and knowing what we know now, what should we have done to prevent this?
Rally against industrialization? bomb the factories? push for anti-industrialization laws? what EXACTLY?
Or, as I suspect, was this "industrial revolution" a necessary evil?
We had little knowledge of the "greenhouse" effect ...
I stopped right here.
I made it clear that you are living back then, BUT KNOW WHAT YOU KNOW NOW.
If you don't want to answer my good question, fine.
But I'm not going to read 12" of text for a simple question I asked.
Especially when I put "exactly" in all capitals.
I'm not interested in fantasy hypotheticals or how large you set your font.
What matters is what we *did* know and what we *failed* to do.
It's not a good question. If we "knew then what we know now" we'd have also by implication known how to run a nuclear reactor, built a photovoltaic cell, and construct a heat pump. It's just a fantasy.What you call "fantasy hypotheticals," I like to call "good questions."
When it is the engineer's fault then it is. The failure to respond appropriately for the last 35 years to the clear signal of pending doom from excess CO2 emissions is not on the engineers. It is on the politicians, the lobbyists, the businessmen, the media, and the rest of us.Always after the fact though, isn't it?
After someone's been blown to bits, disfigured, or major property damage has occurred.
But then, it's always some engineer's fault, isn't it?
