I appreciate the response— but nothing comes of that. Whereas moving off-topic posts is perhaps more manageable. This way climate deniers (who definit...

Yes, and rightfully so. I don’t suffer fools. I don’t like them, I have little tolerance for them. Especially sanctimonious ones. But I do hope they f...

Yes. I had him on the ignore list for over a year— among others. Now that that’s not an option, I can see all the more how often the thread has been t...

If only we could all aspire to get to the level of those who feel entitled to lecture others about their tone, childishness, flaming, and lack of subs...

Right— so create a thread where we can debate anything, even a flat earth. But the geology thread isn’t the place for that.

I know. I should have said “my” suggestion. Exactly.

Absolutely. And that has been done, countless times — and not just from curmudgeons like me, but from far more patient and thorough individuals. But t...

What ideology are you referring to exactly? Imagine a thread on evolution, where creationists spam constantly. Is objecting to this spam “ideological”...

Can the mods weigh in on this please? Thank you. @"Jamal"@"Michael"@"Hanover"@"Benkei"@"Baden"@"Count Timothy von Icarus"@"Moliere"

Yes. As I mentioned, it’s akin to a thread on biological evolution being spammed by creationist garbage. Of course they call themselves “intelligent d...

You’re right, but I want to be nice. No one admits to being a denier these days— no one. Not even Trump. Currently — and several times over the years ...

In explaining climate change, for people who are truly interested in learning about it, I always like to start with an easy experiment: you can take t...

Interesting and well-written perspectives? What’s the thread coming to? Anyway — how seriously do we take anything Trump says? Words and posturing mat...

Btw— maybe this was answered already, but why are you leaving moderation? I had a baby —what’s your excuse? @"fdrake"

Stoking the fire is a bannable offense.

Thank you, sir.

Ah — further demonstrating keen perception.

Oh — I’m a guy. That’s me in my profile picture. Why?

What?

@"fdrake" The fact that you kept a member who not only is often abusive (but of course excuses himself for) but, worse, reduces the forum to Twitter-l...

Can you grant preemptive pardons to your favorite members as part of your last moderator actions?

Just realized that CO2 levels and Olivia Rodrigo have both increased together — in ppm and age, respectively. Thus, let’s try to slow reduction of emi...

Yes, fight all those women and children who had nothing to do with it. I’m sure we’ll “destroy Hamas” any day now… Your moral instincts are as admirab...

Maybe Trump, in his own moronic way, stumbles to putting an end to the war that the US both instigated and prolonged. I doubt it, but who knows?

January wasn't expected to break global temperature records. But it did Again—this is just at 429 ppm (the highest in 2 million years). There’s also a...

Big shoes to fill.

So this thread is now just a venue for delusional Trump cultists to give Twitter updates and repeat news stories that everyone already knows. Cool.

…

Indeed.

What scientific prediction are you referring to? And yes, renewable enjoy is an interesting topic. They’ve become cheaper and more efficient. At this ...

Ah, okay. That makes sense. You’re basically right— but it’s very tough to live without plastics. They now play a major role in the world. Not talking...

It’s cool, but to me it’s not the most obvious example. The most obvious is transportation or electricity. That’s why I found it odd. But no worries.

Why figure on plastics, exactly? Electricity generation, transportation, home heating, cement and steel production, etc — all huge contributors. So wh...

The climate is changing at a pace not seen in human history— and it’s because of carbon emissions from using fossil fuels. It’s not that complicated.

It was obvious that capitalism wasn’t sustainable 100 years ago. Now it’s a fact.

And only getting worse. We’re seeing these effects at 1.1. Imagine 2.4.
