I use nuc power to grow so my op is a carbon capture op, not that I really care if CO2 levels creep a lil, more weight on my bitches
sun grown is where it's at, no carbon needed.....or depleted uranium:roll:
View attachment 3796993
zedd for once has a good point (i feel the need to wash) nuke power is definitely needed to free us from the CO2 problem

maybe not to grow nut not everyone is in a climate suitable for such good crops even with greenhouse help

nuclear is much much cleaner than the greens think

"Politicians who don't believe in climate change should not hold public office, said actor Leonardo DiCaprio Monday at the White House before the screening of his new climate documentary.

"The scientific consensus is in and the argument is now over," DiCaprio said at the White House's South By South Lawn event.

"If you do not believe in climate change, you do not believe in facts, or in science or empirical truths and therefore, in my humble opinion, should not be allowed to hold public office."

DiCaprio screened his film "Before the Flood," a documentary about climate change. Ahead of the screening, he spoke on a panel with President Obama.

Obama called for the development of new technologies to address climate change, but stressed changes in policy and attitudes wouldn't happen overnight.

"Climate change is almost perversely designed to be really hard to solve politically. It is a problem that creeps up on you," Obama said.

"The political system in every country is not well designed to do something tough now to solve a problem that people will really feel the impact of in the future."

In the film, DeCaprio travels to Greenland, the Pacific Islands, Sumatra and industrial regions of China to show the impacts of climate change.

DiCaprio, and the film's director, Fisher Stevens, hope to use it in the run-up to next month's presidential and Senate elections, according to The Guardian.

They plan to show it on college campuses and across swing states. It will be released via National Geographic later this month."

This just goes to show that people who pretend for a living (i.e. actors) shouldn't be allowed to give political advice.

DiCaprio is great in movies. And a fucking moron everywhere else.

"If you do not believe in climate change, you do not believe in facts, or in science or empirical truths and therefore, in my humble opinion, should not be allowed to hold public office."

His entire quote is 100% true

The science of climate change is very well established and accepted by virtually the entire scientific community. If you don't accept it, you don't accept scientific facts. If you don't accept scientific facts, you can't make good or accurate judgments based on them. And if you can't do that, you should not be allowed to be in a position that has real world affects on millions, if not billions, of peoples lives.

Pada, I believe in climate change. I just don't believe that believing in climate change should be required to hold public office.

Should those who don't believe in evolution be barred from holding public office? How about those who don't believe in quantum theory, or that the universe is 14 billion years old?

How about those who don't believe the Higgs boson is real?

Edited to add:

I wouldn't want climate change deniers to hold public office either. But that's rightfully and legally controlled by the voters.

Hey Pada. Overall you're a cool dude but I think you're wrong about this "97% consensus".

http://www.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303480304579578462813553136 said:
The “97 percent” figure in the Zimmerman/Doran survey represents the views of only 79 respondents who listed climate science as an area of expertise and said they published more than half of their recent peer-reviewed papers on climate change. Seventy-nine scientists—of the 3,146 who responded to the survey—does not a consensus make.

Then like DiCaprio said, you don't believe that believing in empirical scientific evidence should be a requirement to hold public office. I think that's irresponsible because their job requires that they do, and if they don't, the consequences are huge

Certain occupations depend on people knowing their shit inside and out, I'd argue politician is near the top of that list

People who don't believe in empirical scientific evidence should not be allowed to hold public office. Would you want a history teacher who doesn't believe in the holocaust? A brain surgeon who doesn't believe in biology? A cop who doesn't believe in the Civil Rights Act?

Why doesn't it matter what a politician believes if what they believe will demonstrably harm other people? Would you care if a politician believed in the literal translation of Islam? You would, right? Because that belief is fundamentally opposed to what most people generally accept represent American values. The exact same applies to a politician who believes in a literal interpretation of Christianity or any other unverifiable belief

Hey Pada. Overall you're a cool dude but I think you're wrong about this "97% consensus".
"The consensus that humans are causing recent global warming is shared by 90%–100% of publishing climate scientists according to six independent studies by co-authors of this paper. Those results are consistent with the 97% consensus reported by Cook et al (Environ. Res. Lett. 8 024024) based on 11 944 abstracts of research papers, of which 4014 took a position on the cause of recent global warming. A survey of authors of those papers (N = 2412 papers) also supported a 97% consensus.

Tol (2016 Environ. Res. Lett. 11 048001) comes to a different conclusion using results from surveys of non-experts such as economic geologists and a self-selected group of those who reject the consensus. We demonstrate that this outcome is not unexpected because the level of consensus correlates with expertise in climate science. At one point, Tol also reduces the apparent consensus by assuming that abstracts that do not explicitly state the cause of global warming ('no position') represent non-endorsement, an approach that if applied elsewhere would reject consensus on well-established theories such as plate tectonics.

We examine the available studies and conclude that the finding of 97% consensus in published climate research is robust and consistent with other surveys of climate scientists and peer-reviewed studies."

Consensus on consensus: a synthesis of consensus estimates on human-caused global warming

"Multiple studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals show that 97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree: Climate-warming trends over the past century are extremely likely due to human activities. In addition, most of the leading scientific organizations worldwide have issued public statements endorsing this position. The following is a partial list of these organizations, along with links to their published statements and a selection of related resources."

Literally everything you said was based in opinion. Nothing you said was mired in fact.

The word Enema is in his username and based upon the subject matter he enclosed it would seem that he has some deep seeded fascinations involving DiCaprio and W. Smith.

The VOTERS should decide who holds public office Pada.

Each member of every science panel should have a vote, but no more than one apiece.

The right of people to choose their own representation should not have any influence by any scientific panel, aside from advice. The voters choose to believe the advice, or reject it. Which is currently guaranteed by law. With no approval from any fucking scientists required. Whether they're right or wrong in their theories.

The will of the public must decide who holds office. Otherwise, we all lose our rights.
