It's happening. It's real. Stop insulting our intelligence.

Who gives a sh*t what Al Gore thinks? This is a massive problem that has nothing to do with him.
I can remember when everyone simply had to see "An Inconvenient Truth". It was being shown in schools and winning all sorts of awards.

Now that it turns out to be mostly hyperbole B.S.?

Al Gore was front and center at the latest climate talks. If you no longer want him to be the face of all of this someone needs to tell him to leave his jet at home.

Some people still refuse to believe the obvious evidence with their own eyes, trucking in snow for the Iditarod?


When all else fails shout out AL Gore was wrong and ignore the tons of evidence available.


What do we call Glacier National Park when it is no longer a glacier.

Stop the propaganda. It's not a massive problem you are fear mongering. Stop the lies already. Volcanic activity is the cause of any melting.

Yes, we are past the tipping point. People are missing the real issue. Methane heats up the atmosphere 20x more than CO2. It is being released at horrifying levels. To compound that problem, the rise in ocean temperature has melted a frost layer that has kept this gas trapped for eons. The amount of global methane leakage that's occuring is gargantuan!!! Even in the continental US, huge leaks are occurring in the central plains and California.
