Many people now realise that previous efforts/promises were inadequate and so, when pressure comes on to make meaningful targets, there is push back to this.

If the horse is concerned should we be? So many questions.The posts go by so fast it's hard to keep track of all the different dimensions to this propaganda statement. I have to hand it to you guys. You've certainly got a handle on the nuances of social media. I need to have a look at this Twitter thing. Actually I just googled that story. It was certainly picked up quickly by mainstream media.

I suppose it ties in with Gozunda viewing it as a humorous thread and as a consequence posting nothing but laughable posts.

Poster A - 95%+ of scientists say there is Poster B - My grand dad said that in 1934, he went to Mass on Christmas day in short sleeves, there's always been warm years. Poster C - ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You can read that as 'friilies' if that helps ok hun? Tbh I think some are just a little over tired by all the hot air and general snowflakery. It must be the cold weather or something. But no worries. We all understand. Dont do twitter. So can't help you there Newsfeed apps are very good - means you don't have to 'Google' the news (so old hat tbh)

I don't know about you but the fact that such a trivial story is picked up by major outlets is proof of the point I was making. It's not actually made up. You do know about dark pools don't you? You seem like an ok bloke in fairness but despite your assistance on your light-hearted approach to this thread you do seem easily triggered and argumentative.

The weather has been like this in Ireland as far as i can remember, in fact they worse some years ago more frequent lately not so much.
Speaking before the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action, the director of the national forecaster Eoin Moran said that climate change has become the new reality as the world warms to levels not seen over the last 125,000 years. The last four years were the warmest on record on a global average, he said, with 2018 more than 0.4°C warmer than the average temperature from 1981-2010. The “continuing rapid and record rise” in man-made emissions is now impacting global weather patterns that Mr Moran warned is impacting the lies of the Asian monsoon season, the behaviour of the jet stream, and the intensity and frequency of heatwaves, droughts and flooding.

See the thread title. Oh and yes thats as set out by the OP and confirmed by Mr E when someone strangely enough tried to complain about a number of the humourous posts posted in the thread! But you are correct on one thing - its laughable we have a few getting into a frenzy when greta isn't being constantly adored or worshipped. Though to think about it- also a bit odd really. That's a really good idea. A dedicated thread about that kind of thing would certainly be ideal. I wonder why no one here has thought of that?

Tuisceanch wrote: » Yes I know what you mean. I started a thread in the 'Anthropology, Sociology & Culture' figuring it wouldn't attract that sort of attention and low and behold the first response was somebody calling climate science a fairy tale and that it didn't use the scientific method and that I should believe him because he said so. That was,with no exaggeration,the extent of his argument. You would think it would be possible to have a grown up conversation with some intellectual content somewhere on this platform.

Theoretically I do wonder why anyone not actually living here and not having to put up our ever changing miserable weather would be bothered by what those who do live here do or do not think or believe or indeed whether we find this greta crack all a bit well funny frankly?
