Sort of like an extremely really stupid argument, Tomato Panda.

Not even going to bother breaking it all down, but one of the most important points would be that 30 years is a lot in terms of technological and scientific advancements. Can’t really state nothing can be done, as long as people are trying then the proper advancements will be made in fields that benefit the solution to climate change/global warming.

If your solution to a problem is get it over with because eventually it will happen (maybe), I guess you should end your life now. (not telling you to kill yourself but that’s basically the level of argument you made)

Trump and Pompeo believe in it they just know
that theres NOTHING that can be done to stop it. Only way to stop it is if All of Europe, China, India, America, Japan and Russia all sat down and said lets do something about this and even if we did sit down and did something about it the poles would still be melting but we may be able to get ourselves maybe another 30 years lol. Thats why im all for the poles to melt so we can get this over with. Yes some species of animals are gonna go extinct because of this and yes many people even may die and deffently going to lose their homes, but there is nothing that can be done that everyone would agree to.

Well that's just not true. POTUS has repeatedly called climate change a hoax, pulled the US out of the Paris Climate Accords, and assisted in cutting back on the EPA... and has literally said "I don't believe in climate change"

To be fair his opinion on it seems to be incredibly inconsistent and has blamed either the Chinese, Obama, or "Science" on climate change being a hoax. Most recently I think he has said that he simply believes we cant prove humans have an effect on the climate. But I wouldn't consider his word the most reliable indicator as to what he is thinking.

It also seems you don't really understand the full extent of how badly climate change is going to screw humans over in the next several decades, its not just ice caps disappearing, coastlines flooding, fish dying. The climate will keep changing after all that happens, at what point then do we need to start taking action to clean up our ****ty habits that are very likely going kill us at some point.

 

Fake news  

I'm sure POTUS, his administration, and most conservative politicians do believe in climate change and not that's it's some "Chinese hoax." They just say that to please their largest financial donors, who are some of the top greenhouse gas emitters. They're sabotaging all life on Earth just to make a quick buck.

Just 100 companies create 71% of all greenhouse gas emmisions on Earth.

While I agree with your logic there, and that a lot of what these people say is to appeal to their voters and donors-- I don't think there's a lot of evidence that these people really understand the issue, or the actual dangers climate change poses (politicians are pretty uneducated on most issues they push for). Plus when you have a cabinet lined with the "yes-men" that POTUS has appointed, its unlikely that he is being fed any actual information about the issue.  

If you climate change people can somehow convince the rest of the world to stop pollution then I believe President Trump would give you a min of his time but untill then do not expect the united states to take its citizens jobs away while the rest of the world just keeps on polluting. If you honestly believe the united states can stop this by themselves with regulations then your crazy especially when china are the ones polluting the most.

Republicans are not the only ones doing policy for its rich donors the Democrats are just as guilty if not worse. The Republicans used to be the party for the middle class man till the 19th century then the Democrats were during JFK. After they both became partys for the rich man and only recently with President Trump do we have a president that is for the middle class again which I believe is trying to fix both the partys. If you believe the Republican party is the same it used to be 2-3 years ago then your watching to many cnn documentarys and you need to get out more.

The United States can't stop it by themselves, no one believes that. That is why it requires all countries to come together and agree to lower CO2 emissions... Which is more or less what we had with the Paris Agreement before Trump withdrew. Every single country in the world has signed the accord now, yet you're arguing that the rest of the world are the ones who need convincing? I don't think so.

The Paris Climate agreement was useless cause every country got to decide its own limit on CO2 emissions. All it was made for was to make libs like you that dont read the agreement and just read the cnn articles happy.

Yes, but they had to be ambitious targets. This allowed countries to set realistic and achievable goals. It was by no means perfect, but was was a stepping-stone by getting countries moving in the right direction. Even if every country meets their targets, there will still be much further to go. It's just clearly a better solution than having no formal agreement.

Oh look at that, 19 of the leaders at the G20 have said that Climate Change is an issue that needs to be fought...

I'll let you all guess who the lone wolf there was.
