no matter if it's a teleevangelist, fossil fuel company financed propaganda, or showbiz presidents like Regan and Trump there is nothing some conservatives are willing to lay over and/or get down on their knees for. if humanity survives the 70's-2030's will be studied for a long time in how these people lapped up anything and everything put in front of them.
people like @basso are not critical thinkers and just believe whatever they are told - like Dems are fighting for free healthcare for illegals and that's why they shut down the gov't. Or that vaccines causes autism - something completely laughable like the earth being flat. They don't have critical thinking skills but do have a big ego which makes them think they understand science better than people who actually spend their lives studying one specific area.

gift link After Years of Protests, Environmentalists Are Fighting to Save Nuclear Plants Protesters in Belgium are working to keep nuclear power as a plant operator moves to shut a reactor https://www.wsj.com/world/europe/af...1?st=pWKyfp&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink excerpt: HUY, Belgium—A 50-year-old reactor here was about to shut permanently last week after years of antinuclear protests, when a mysterious projection appeared on its massive cooling tower: the title of the Queen song “Don’t Stop Me Now” next to an image of Freddie Mercury raising his fist in the air. The stunt was pulled off by activists aiming to save the reactor, taking a page from the antinuclear playbook of Greenpeace and other groups who long sought to close it. The Belgian government also wants to keep the reactor running—after repealing a 22-year-old law this year that required a phaseout of nuclear energy. The problem: Its operator, France’s Engie, says it is too late. The company shut the reactor at the Tihange plant last week and is pushing ahead with a plan to dismantle it. Engie wants out of the nuclear energy business, which for decades has subjected it to antinuclear protests and the changing whims of Belgian politics. “Business decisions have been made and set, but we need to reverse course,” said Rob De Schutter, a campaigner with a pro-nuclear environmental group called WePlanet that helped organize the stunt. more at the link
Climate change is NOT man made. It's being used as a way to open up another avenue to tax businesses... since personal income taxes, corporate income taxes, sales taxes, property taxes, transfer taxes, excise taxes, payroll taxes, estate taxes, capital gains taxes, etc... are clearly not enough to satisfy the liberals spending needs. "Climate change" is also another way for the government to control the means of production (since companies can't run without energy)... a longstanding goal of socialists. Don't fall for the climate change lie. Instead choose lower energy costs and lower taxes. GOOD DAY
welp . . . sounds like it's game over for catastrophists Bill Gates makes major climate change reversal after years of doomerism: ‘People will be able to live and thrive’ https://nypost.com/2025/10/28/us-ne...ate-change-reversal-after-years-of-doomerism/ excerpt: Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, who has spent more than a decade warning that the world was on the brink of unimaginable peril due to rising global temperatures, now says climate change “will not lead to humanity’s demise” in a stunning reversal. Gates, 70, who has sunk billions of his vast fortune into initiatives ostensibly meant to combat global warming, penned a lengthy blog post this week urging a shift away from the “doomsday outlook” many climate activists have adopted to terrify nonbelievers into seeing things their way. “Although climate change will have serious consequences — particularly for people in the poorest countries — it will not lead to humanity’s demise,” he wrote. “People will be able to live and thrive in most places on Earth for the foreseeable future.” when you've lost Bill Gates . . . . more at the link

The timing is always impeccable. A couple days after this thread was reloaded by ignorant posts by an ignorant fool, the 2nd strongest hurricane on record this late in the season emerges and looks like it could devastate Jamaica… which is like… not that far from the United States. Had the jet stream been curved a slightly different angle, a storm as bad as Milton with warmer waters in the gulf could have easily devastated half of a state along the coast. The science is not that difficult or controversial. The water is warmer. Warmer water produces bigger more powerful storms. More powerful storms create more damage.
