Manbearpig Will Kill 90% of Humanity if It Isn't Stopped, I'm Totally Cereal
Posted by Gregory of Yardale at November 30, 2009 11:25 AM
The Cult of Manbearpig is doubling down on their rhetoric, even as the Global Warming threat has been rather conclusively revealed to be a hoax.
Professor Kevin Anderson, director of the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change, believes only around 10 per cent of the planet’s population – around half a billion people – will survive if global temperatures rise by 4C.
"For humanity it’s a matter of life or death," he said. "We will not make all human beings extinct as a few people with the right sort of resources may put themselves in the right parts of the world and survive.
"But I think it’s extremely unlikely that we wouldn’t have mass death at 4C. If you have got a population of nine billion by 2050 and you hit 4C, 5C or 6C, you might have half a billion people surviving."
Setting aside whether this alarmism is true, (it's not, of course, humanity is not going to die off if night-time low temperatures in Siberia are -36 degrees instead of -40), isn't the extinction of 90% of humanity something a lot of environmentalists are in favor of?

"totally cereal" is that the same as being flaky?

When you said "double down" you got it right. These idiots KNOW the jig is up, but are hoping
(a) the public is asleep at the wheel, or will have a short attention span...so just keep on message and maintain that same look that Joey Buttafuoco's mistress Amy Fisher did thru her whole trial: "I don't know what you MEAN".
(b) that they can push this through even though we DO know it's all bullshit. Once enacted, and especially if it's international, we'll have a hell of a time undoing what they did.
These guys are pushing brinksmanship to a new level. They might get away with it, but my gut says they've had it...and are going to be discredited and destroyed beyond anything they can imagine. And not a moment too soon.

blah, blah, blah, blah....Who gives a crap what these pinheads say anymore. They're HOAXERS!
They're only in it for the money (government grants, carbon tax, etc.) Not to be listened to AT ALL! Buh-bye now.

"10 per cent of the planet’s population – around half a billion people – will survive if global temperatures rise by 4C."
As viewed from two different positions:
1. This will be a catastrophe!!!!!
2. This will be a "Damned Good Start!!!!!"

Like I always said, the climate is a self-correcting system.
Overpopulation leads to global warming.
Global warming leads to decreased population.
The key is always to be in the part of the population that does not die from starvation, but gets to wait to die from other causes.

Well, good thing we just found out that the world isn't getting warmer.
Now the 3rd world populations can continue with there exponential population growth.

And if the temps rise 100C the oceans will boil away and everyone will be dead.
But dont worry since Big Brother will win the war with the Sun in the same way he finally defeated the armies of East Asia resulting in a 20% increase in rice rations for every citizen of Oceania.

The eco-alarmist nutballs have been saying crap for YEARS. Even though we are in a cooling trend (which I thought they were still using "Climate Change" as a term to loot from the taxpayers and get more intrusive), they are still trying to hope that the indoctrination that they put out for eons will make your average guy gullible since the ClimateGate scandal hit. Follow the money, it's all about more taxes and "carbon credits" to fill the coffers of the likes of AlBore (even though CO2 is 0.03% of the atmosphere).

Global Warming is an ex-parrot. It has ceased to be.

Original message
Will you be ashamed?
Edited on Sun Nov-29-09 02:30 AM by The Doctor.
I'm quite serious in asking this question.
We have already seen the predictions of scientists on AGW/Climate Change coming to pass 10 or 20 years sooner than expected. Most of we scientifically literate folks understand what that means. It means that the reality is more dire than the predictions.
Many of you denialists are simply scientifically illiterate. While that is no excuse, there exists a chance you'll be honest with your grandchildren when they ask why you let the catastrophe happen. But you who know what you are doing, those of you who are aware that you don't understand, or worse; do understand yet still fight to prevent solutions from being implemented...
What are you going to tell your grandchildren?
When they have to ask you what salmon tasted like, because they will never know, ever, in their lifetimes.
When they have to look at relocation maps as parts of the world are under water.
When they see pictures of the pretty white beasts called 'polar bears' and ask where are they now.
When they ask you how people could have possibly lived in hurricane-wracked Florida, Texas, and Georgia.
When they don't understand that there was a time when more than 50% of children made it to adulthood.
When they ask if the government always had to ration food so scarcely and if they'd ever know what it was like not to be hungry all the time.
When they look at the differences between the world you enjoyed and the one they have to endure...
When you've seen just how all of these things really did come to pass; because many people with far better understanding of the issue than you could grasp desperately tried to keep the worst of the damage from happening, and you did your best to stop them. After you've looked back at the hundreds of millions of dollars the industries that might lose a few quarter's profit spent to keep you ignorant and reassured obstruction was the right thing to do. And AFTER you read a post on the internet so many years ago about what you would tell your grand-children and quietly, smugly, and to yourself thought, "Well, it's not going to happen, so I don't care." because denial is all you have right now...
What are you going to tell your grandchildren about how you helped create the devastation they live with?
Will you pretend you were on the side of the scientists, or will you admit that you were foolish and ignorant?
Either way, you WILL be ashamed.
Don't forget this post.
Ever.
End of quote. You know what? Most of them threw pieces of garbage at him for his sanctimonious bullshit.

I saw a show on PBS in around 1984 or so (hey, I didn't have cable then, there was nothing else on). There was the founder of the sierra club saying with a staight face "In twenty years, when there are no more trees on the planet....."
Nobody ever holds these idiots to their predictions and asks them to explain why it didn't come to be. It'll be the same with the goof in Karin's post. I won't have to tell my grandchildren anything, unless they ask me why our freedom is gone. Fools, all of them.

HA...an excellent observation!!! Just that, right there, should be sufficient to reveal these megalomaniacal phonies for the bloviating liars they are!

Unfortunately, however, probably not too soon to do a fair bit of damage.
Given that New Zealand has passed a 'climate bill,' Australia is on the brink of doing so, and the U.S. version of that particular turd is working its way through the Senate U-bend ...
