Temperature going up over time? Over how long? 100 years compared to billions, the age of earth? Do you even understand basic statistics to calculate the confidence in such a measurement?

All the bullshit you're parroting from television, like green house effect, is at best circumstantial evidence but it's not proof, and it's evidence with negligible confidence due to the huge error margin mentioned earlier. Even worse, it's not even evidence because of the oldest rule in the book "correlation doesn't imply causation", yet somehow it's still science when basic logic is broken to support a political agenda propped by ignorant people who know nothing in math and teenagers who still don't know the difference between integrals and derivatives and cry that "math is hard".

I hate to break it to you, but people who can't calculate the standard error on measurements shouldn't open their mouths about science, and certainly shouldn't ask us to surrender all our power and money to corrupt politicians for a fictitious goal.

I'm bored of hearing all this politicized nonsense. Maybe go find a book of someone who disagrees with your opinion and learn something outside of what you learned on television.

I don't think I'll respond if you bore me again.

I don’t think I’ll respond if you bore me again.

This is what climate change deniers say when they realize they are in too deep and have no idea what they are talking about.

Or people who have better things to do.

OK, teenager.
