[...] Exxon said to be backtracking somewhat: here. [...]

Slow down here! You people are missing the point. Exxon acknowledged that the world’s climate is getting warmer. But they never said that it was because of human activity. You see, these are two different things. The earth has always gone through cycles of cooling and warming, yes even before the invention of the internal combustion engine! This is all that Exxon is realing saying here. So you global alarmists don’t start thinking you have gained any ground here, because you haven’t.

The Exxon SOB did not have any ideas for how to help. I have one for him. “Stop paying your f…ing shills at American Enterprise Institute and elsewhere in an effort to keep the public confused. In any kind of moral universe, you would be in jail instead of collecting 10s if not 100s of millions dollars per year.”

Wrong.

We are currently experiencing record cold temperatures and record snowfall in the US, so while there may be fluctuations in temperatures and localized changes in climate, there is NO evidence of long term, permanent, climate change on a global scale – NONE.

Wrong.

Donâ€™t you think scientists know how to pick out low frequency signals out of high frequency noise? For the idiots, high frequency noise = weather, low frequency signals = climate.

I still don’t get why oil companies, who call themselves energy companies, don’t diversify into renewable resources. They could easily “corner the market” and get in on the ground floor. They more than have the capital. What’s stopping them?

You may be reading too much into his comments. He said the world is warming, but did not say it is induced by man or that it is not reversible through natural feedback mechanisms. Obviously the amount of carbon man is introducing into the atmosphere contributes to global warming, and the amount of pollution counteracts this effect to some extent. How much of warming is due to natural vs man made actions, no one knows. Rather than error on the side of safety like we do with terrorism, to the point of pre-emptive wars, this administration chooses to take a passive approach, until the 9/11 of climatic change happens proves it is a real threat. By then it will probably be too late to do anything.

I’m surprised, since the executives who run Exxon seem to be among the most unprincipled people that run a major US corporation.

The reason to convert from buring fossil fuels to safer energies like nuclear power and alternatives (solar, wind, etc), is to clean up the environment. I doubt any of that will have any impact on global warming, but cleaner air and water would sure be nice.

If you must look to science fiction novels for you points of reference, try Arthur C. Clarke, Carl Sagan, or H.G. Wells, men who had wonderful imaginations combined with sound scientific principals.

Remember your old professor’s advice about acting like an expert in fields you’re ignorant of? Well, once again, you heard his words, but are clueless on their meanings.

I suggest you go read the latest climate reports. It even debunks your silly urban heat islands myth. But don’t let reality’s liberal bias stop you from posting flat out debunked lies. After all, what good is it to put aside your christian values if you can’t tell big bold faced lies like this one.

Are there any blogs on gravity? Looking at this map, and understanding that Newtonâ€™s laws on gravity donâ€™t seem to work on a galactic scale, leads me to believe gravity is actually a pushing force or pressure within the medium, and not a pulling force within a mass, but I canâ€™t find anyplace to discuss this.

There are reason for that…

Sheesh, Jason is the King of Nonsense…

Well not under your bed, where you hide, there isn’t….

But come on out.

It was 70 degrees in Georgia yesterday. It’s February… That’s not record COLD by anyone’s definition…

…and when googled, one finds that jason argues about gravitational theory and, no surprise, is totally shot down as being a “crackpot”.

Yeah, sure Jase,

And darn the silly weatherman, he can’t even forcast tomorrow’s weather predictably, right?

Small minds drown easily from brainwashing.

There’s only massive amounts of data / proof of the ocean’s temperature rise over the past several decades, along with the melting of all glaciers at never before recorded levels and the overwhelming consensus from bipedals with functioning brain stems that the planet’s climate is affected by CO2 levels in the atmosphere.

To deny these truths is to cast yourself as a quantifiable “nut-job”, devoid of any rational thought ESPECIALLY concerning matters of science.

Got Jeezus?

Rex Tillerson, the rest of the bigwigs at exxon mobile and the rest of the bigwigs at all worldwide oil companies should be herded together like the fat pigs they are and thrown into a tanker of oil then trucked over to the La Brea Tar Pits(tm) to join the rest of the dinosaur and other fossils to eventually, over the millenia to come, BECOME the fossil crude oil they exploited America’s working class and the poorer people of America to make their TRILLIONS of DOLLARS OF ILL-GOTTEN GAIN–A Fitting END for these DETESTABLE CREEPS!!!!! Don’t forget to herd CHIMPya and Torticola Cheney as well, so they can join Tillerson and the other creeps!
