I’ve said this exact thing for about two years now – to think that humanity has the ability to impact the weather so drastically in only 100 years is completely arrogant. Thing is, I’m really no one… so why would anyone listen to me?
Would you listen to a CNN meteorologist who has been at this for roughly 22 years? (via hotair)
We only have roughly 150 years of meteorological accurate data on record and have no really ability to draw significant trend lines tying climate change to any one specific thing.
Now I am not saying that we shouldn’t be treating this planet with the respect is deserves. Yes, we need to cut down on the carbon emissions. Yes, we need to remove chemicals from the air and water. Yes, we need to find renewable sources of energy. I mean, really, do you drop a steaming load on your kitchen table and then eat off of it? No. So, why not take care of where you live? We need to take care of our environment because this is where we live, and we only have one earth that I am aware of.
The world has been around for 4.5 Billion years, humanity a good 5,000, and to think humanity is changing the environment that drastically is truly arrogant. I’m not denying climate change, I just do not believe humans are the cause.
