Teacher: The boiling frog theory states that if a frog is placed in boiling water, it will jump out, but if it is slowly heated, it will not perceive the danger and die.... Student: I don't get the relevance....Isn't this supposed to be a seminar on climate change?

Ergo, mankind is as stupid as a frog.

The climate has been changing since the beginning. Only recently has man come to the ignorant position that he can spend enough of other peoples’ money to stop it; or to believe that other people can spend enough of your money to stop it.

the climate changes constantly but if we hope to keep an environment that we can live in then we need to take steps to reduce the amount of change we are contributing to the total change. Natural occurrences affect the climate, but some of our activities make the changes more extreme and more rapid which make them harder for us and other organisms on the planet to adapt to.

Just to be clear, just because we do not believe in MMCC does not mean that we are not concerned about the environment. Most of us still recycle and drive hybrids etc. We all know that man’s existence on the planet effects that planet in vast ways – but we choose not to force our thoughts on others in vast tirades and constant yammering.

But is this water boiling?

Based on the comments here so far(admittedly a small sample size) I would say the tirading and yammering is mostly being done by the non believers in MMCC!

If there was ever a chance to stop the world from going under,it’s probably been lost anyway.

As long as you can keep deluding one another and get your little tin horn dictators in power, you will never have to think for yourself again. Sure, the die-off will be slow and there will likely be pockets of humans who will survive and the planet will revive sometime in the distant future. But you and your descendants won’t be among them.

You said “Be informed!!”That pinned the needle on my irony meter. After all, you’re the same guy who was just writing, up at the “Reality Check” comic, that you believed the myth of the genesis flood, and not the scientific evidence which comprehensively refutes it.Of course, a poll not that long ago showed that 64% of all Americans, if faced with irrefutable evidence that one of their religious tenets had been disproved, would continue to believe it anyway.And that, not the “liberal-controlled media and scientific community” of your conspiracy theory mindset (if you doubt that, reread your post), is what is wrong with America today.

If icecaps are growing worldwide then how do you explain ocean level rising? The 2 are incompatible.Northern ice increasing 60 per cent? who is your source,the telegraph?By the way,NASA is solidly on the side of global warming,so don’t cherry pick information to sow doubt.Energy concerns such as Koch and Exxon are spending millions financing organizations that specialize in misinformation much like the tobacco industry did in the 70’s and 80’s ! And what the hell does evolution got to do with climate change(Global warming) ? Oh those unholy scientists!

And like climate change, the frog story is also a myth.
