Get rid of unnecessary poisons, stop pollution and control wastage. Go back in time,live of the land, horse and cart, grow ya own crops,and barter with ya neighbours and friends

It's a complete myth

Yes of course

Le changement climatique est une invention de gens qui gagnent des sommes folles et qui en ont peur.

There is no such thing as climate change.

Oui bien sûr, le moins de déchets possible , je pense que le mal est déjà fait

humans can take some blame, only because there are too many of us, but while China and India continue to commission new coal fired power stations, what can we do? Every volcano that erupts counteracts any good Toyota Prius cars can achieve. And as for us Aussies driving electric cars recharged/powered by coal burning power stations.. what a laugh.Edited 14-Aug-24 13:32pm

Yes, the Earth had higher Co2 levels in the past. Where are the dinosaurs now? Where are the animals prior to the dinosaurs? How many of the plants from the Age of the Dinosaurs are still alive. As the proportion of Co2 in the atmosphere increases, the ability of the atmosphere to emit heat, away from Earth decreases. As a result, the Earth warms up. An extra problem is that the amount of Co2 absorbed by environmental water is also increasing. The oceans as a result are becoming more acidic so marine life is affected.

Yep…damn climate is changing the way my bones ache……lol

This topic has been on here several other times now. The Earth experiences dramatic changes every 25,000 years…don’t panic.

Yep humans cause some but take a look at what a volcano produces

Sorry so called man made Climate Change "Whackos" there is an Asteroid going to hit us in 2036 if you believe Nasa

Please, look at the Statue of Liberty and the sea level around it, hasn’t changed in over 50 years. Al Gore said the polar bears would be extinct in 2012, nope. Ice caps in some areas have actually increased. 500 wildfires in British Columbia in the summer of 2023, 450 were set by climate activists trying to claim the fires were caused by climate change. The arsonists have been charged, some have been convicted, others still awaiting trail. Mainstream media refusing to cover this. There hasn’t been one climate change claim that has been proven as fact in the past 100 years, remember the ozone layer and the attempted fear with that story?

Of course, it is caused by humans and also by animals. The effect can be seen everywhere. Ice caps are melting, glaciers are shrinking at a fast rate, whole islands in the Pacific have already been swallowed up by rising sea level. All the actions taking by the various governments are like a drop on a hot rock. In 50 years or so the Earth's climate will have changed so much that large areas in the world will be uninhabitable.

Of course it is caused by human activity. The case for this was made some time ago. My small contribution is that I take the train or the tram whenever possible instead of the car. But, I think it is already too late. All the governments in the world are doing far too little. The result will be a different world than any of us have ever experienced. And it won't be pretty.

Peg Doesn't help that they are ripping the heart out of the Amazon forest ,which is something they will regret sooner then later.So much to be learned and GREED isn't part of the deal

Yes. I do believe our driving cars using gas engines is a Big Cause of Climate Change. Also, using energy from coal furnaces.

i think climate change is a normal phenomena that has been sped up buy the industrial revolution and the burning of fossil fuels,, i don't care if cows fart, i love burger, get rid of fossil fuels and we can eat burger,, just give the cows tums or gasx for their gas,, Edited 24-May-23 14:37pm

we contribute, but take a look at what the Tonga volcano did for climate recently. No amount of driving a Toyota Prius will compensate for that.

BECAUSE I DONT UNDERSTAND SCIENCE IT MUST BE A HUGE CONSPIRACY. MY EXPERIENCE IN FEELING THINGS TELLS ME THAT EVERY SINGLE CLIMATE EXPERT IN THE WORLD IS BEING PAID OFF TO TELL LIES.

There is no such thing as climate change it’s just a circle in the earth it’s a hoax

the climate change is crazy .i do not trust it at all.

Logic, I was talking to a friend the other day, he didn't believe in covid, I told him that u can see it under a microscope, I then asked him do u believe in so called climate change, he quickly replied yes, so he didn't believe something you can see, but believed something you cant

Al Gore, someone who is definitely unhinged, claimed the Earth would end with floods, in 2000…he’s still yelling at the world about our imminent self-destruction. Gore has made a fortune doing this. John Kerry is the same way, a Doomsday profiteer. Earth undergoes major changes every 25,000 years, accept that man can not control nature.

To me people need to study history and see that most places having record high temperature readings have not reached the hottest recorded for that area. Floods occurring now are repeating patterns from several years prior to day fires have burnt areas out that have not been burnt for years look at records people please the weather hanged constantly 20 years ago we were worried about the ozone layer hold getting bigger this has always existed it grows in summer and shrinks in winter but no longer talked about .I may not be a scientist but I take notice of my surrounds and history

TO ME CLIMATE CHANG IS HACK TO ADD MONEY THAT WE DO NOT HAVE ONLY PART OG THE WORLD TRIES TO FIX IT MIKE

So Planet Earth is around 4 billion years old, the Industrial Revolution began in the 1700's give or take, so we have destroyed the planet in 322 years. I think it is safe to say that Planet Earth will be around at lot longer than those Social Media "fruit cakes" as well as the Dr Wackadoodles

The gullible believe everything these rich climate lefties believe, that's right put a picture of a smokestack & you have got them, little do they know it is only steam coming out.

In my opinion Al Gore is a parasite who feeds off people's worry. Climate change has been going on since day one and will continue long after the human species has disappeared. The trouble is that humans are creating conditions that will bring that about faster than ever. One day, and I hope soon, that Mother Nature will say "No More" and will deal with the situation before all the Al Gores will do anything about it.

yes i do believe humans have caused the climate change.To much toxic fumes going up into the air from smoke ,fumes from cars ,Trucks , sprays.We are chocking the earth.

Every now and then I’ll take a gas-X……….lol

Changes good or bad are for evolution. Nothing evolves without it even earth and it is does not matter who is to blame. Gov brainwashing people into this climate change stuff and at the same time experimenting with bombs in the ocean. That’s normal. No trust to those who in power, they are not for people’s or nature’s needs.

Yes humans are to blame for climate change.theres far to much pollution .from factories, all types of traffic ,How I'm trying to help the planet ,I do not own a car ,I walk to most places,or i ride on a bus ,or taxi ,I also recycle plastics,paper and cardboard.

Climate change has existed since the beginning of earth though recently humans are definitely influencing our atmospheric composition. There's no denying that. Change in chemicals results in different thermodynamics. Put it this way: what happens if you change the refrigerant in your fridge to something that has different thermal properties? Earth is somewhat more dynamic/complex but is similar in the way that pressure and gravity keep gasses sealed in. If you change the composition of our atmosphere to a different ratio of chemicals then there are going to be noticeable changes. Some things in nature we can't control like volcanic eruption, changes under earth's crust, solar radiation, the moon, the weather, thermohaline circulation and ocean salinity, Milankovich cycles etc. but we may as well do something about the things we can control like greenhouse gas emissions and the number of trees being cut - trees being one of the best available resources for carbon capture.Edited 25-Feb-22 14:34pm

Not just humans alone, it's a lot to do with cycles of the earth, planets, etc. I saw a show yesterday about Egyptians, 4,500 years ago, where they reckon it was a lush grassland, not the sandy desert we think of now. But, they had a 20 year drought, due to climate change and the water and grasslands all dried up. Also, the moon is moving away from us every year, this will alter the tilt of the earth and will also affect weather patterns.

I believe climate change is partially caused by humans but if you look at the history of the earth, it has gone through many changes over the eons.

In all the comments I have read some way down the page, NOT one discussion on World Population, Not one word on Nuclear Power, NOT one comment against China (NO There too big), Not one word against India (no they are too big & a Nuclear stronghold & becoming bigger, China's biggest fear) So let's pick on little Australia not even a finger nail of damage compared to our biggest polluters, so i say to all grow sum & mgo and protest outside these Countries Embassy's. & also by the way memo to US What are we giving up to repair our little damage on the Planet.

climate change.......A load of bullshit

Climate change?? ..... a lot of baloney!

Yes

Stop both cows and humans from farting!

Climate change each 1,000 years if you think of its in Europe once lion walk around now nothings at all. Just question its question history questions everything around you. Also they may want to tax more money for the climate change Edited 06-Jul-21 22:46pm

Destruction of the ozone layer cannot be a good thing nor can the emissions from petrol-powered engines. Those are 2 things caused by humans which humans can control. Other factors in climate change are not caused by humans and humans have little or no control over them.

There is one thing to understand about "climate change" and that's this, climate changes! Climate is merely long term weather and for information about the future temperature we must look into the past. Take a pin head and observe it, tiny isn't it? Then grab your child's, or your own basketball and put them close to one another. This is a fair representation of the difference between the sun, the basketball and the pinhead, earth! Now PLEASE explain to me WHY it is during ANY discussion regarding "global warming" and "climate change" that there is ZERO discussions about the role of the huge round glowing ball which we orbit around and changing climate systems? Because the powers that be, from henceforth TPTB DON'T want you getting distracted by something called FACT when there's all these lovely BILLIONS nay TRILLIONS available to convince us, the "useless eaters" or "the Sheeple" that we and our air conditioned homes, our polluting motor vehicles and farting cows are the cause of the dessication around us. It IS true that we humans have been poor stewards of the planet we inhabit and that since the industrial revolution of the 19th century we have been using fossil fuels and putting extremely hazardous waste materials into our rivers and our oceans, but anthropogenic climate change is a catch cry developed by Maurice Strong and other names unknown to most of the almost 8 billion people who are on their hit list because they have cast the blame of destroying THEIR land and THEIR waterways etc, because we are as ants to them and our needs nor concerns don't even warrant a response EXCEPT to blindly believe in their lies! The sun goes through cycles which begin at 11 years and go up to and including 3200 year cycles. There have been periods of time in our history where the temperature AND the CO2 has been much higher than now and alternatively there have been ice ages, interglacial periods and other cooling cycles. These are called "Solar minimums" and are given a name either of an important solar scientist such as Eddy, which is why solar cycle 24 going into 25 is known as the Eddy Minimum. This cycle appears to be like another one from 400 years ago called the Maunder Minimum. You can look it up and you might find it on YT, but don't use Google as your search engine because they bury it, but try Duck Duck Go and you might have more success. Anyway, during the Maunder Minimum it was horribly cold, but worse than the cold was the famine and over 10 million people died in Europe because of the freezing weather which prevented crops from growing and people get sick much easier when they are poorly nourished. People ate the food they'd put aside, then they ate the seeds that were for next springs planting and then they ate the animals they hadn't eaten earlier like the dogs, cats, rats etc Lastly they ate their children. When the sun goes into hibernation like it is now there are few to no sun spots, coronal mass elections and more cosmic rays hitting the earth. The effects of these changes cause drops in global temperatures at the poles decreasing to fewer temperature changes at the equator but shorter growing seasons and less food grown overall. Yes, summers can be hotter but it isn't only temperature that alters but seismic increases and volcanic explosions. During the Dalton Minimum, mid 1880's if I'm not mistaken, there were the largest volcanic eruptions of the previous centuries including Krakatoa and more VEI, or Volcanic Explosive Index, of 8.0 and over and some large eruptions of fault zones. The New Madrid Fault Zone, NMFZ, caused 1000's of people over several states to die due to the quakes and others died of starvation, illness and diseases of unsanitary conditions such as Cholera and Typhus. Can you IMAGINE how a population would handle the news that large seismic events and volcanoes were going to cause death and carnage and take the world back to a pre industrial revolution lifestyle? Let's NOT TELL THEM! Do you STILL wonder why we must be sold a story about how the destruction of Gaia is our fault and that coming "climate lockdowns " are necessary to save humanity. Only those who have foreknowledge and the ability to prepare and move away from the cities and areas where gangs of hungry people roam about seeking who they can steal from and kill have even a CHANCE to survive. On October 23rd, 2024, there will be a conjugation of the 4 gas giants. This will cause massive damage to large parts of the planet and when this last occurred in AD79 the world population was far less and infrastructure wasc obviously non existent in comparison with today. We will be squeezed by these planets one way and the sun's magnetism I n another. If you KNEW that this was inevitable you would train your population to accept restrictions in movement and to COMPLY with government regulations and mandates regardless of how unconstitutional they are OR how necessary. Dr John Casey, a previous scientist working for NASA wrote a very interesting book called "Upheaval" and although it specifically talks about the US and areas which will be hardest hit, it is useful for anyone anywhere to read. So to summarise, there is no such thing as anthropogenic global warming or climate change. We can ride tricycles down the street and stop having children and, apart from there being no one to keep humanity alive or care for the elderly, there would be ZERO change in global temperatures. TPTB want us restricted in everything we do and monitored with zero privacy and to rent anything we need, owning nothing and being happy as Klaus Schwab tells us and the earth will STILL cool as its been doing for the last few years. MICHAEL Creighton who wrote Jurassic Park etc also wrote a book shortly before he died called State of Fear about the use of propaganda and fear to manipulate the masses. I've read it several times and he uses a pretend story to illustrate the data sets, which ARE real, and explain the trickery used. Enough for now but this is a HUGE story and I'm sure that there are many who can continue the dialogue!

we can all do our little bit to delay the change - especially big business

Steam from coal chimneys, turns into clouds. Solar panels and wind farms, eventually have a use by date and were are they going to put this in dumping grounds have they thought how to recycle them? No they only think I a brilliant idea for now not the future. Coal is a mineral from the ground, and is better than other things in this world

Over population, the more people the more resources needed. Some small Countries have populations of Hundreds of Millions, and how many times do you see that these places need us to give them money for clean water and food etc, this has just been getting worse for well over 50 years. Even in NZ people are having Children that they can not afford so the taxpayer has to House, clothe and feed them, how much longer can this go on?

Mother Earth is an active/changing planet.So, in my humble opinion, most of cliamte change be attributed to our blue planet with active volacanoes etc. There is some contribution by humans

Climate change is caused by human, definitely not by animals. The manufacturing companies don’t seem to interested in climate change but about money in their pockets. It’s a world full of greed !

Of course I believe! We humans are very much responsible for destroying our planet and our government better hurry and act responsible for making difference!

Yes Victoria i agree but some humans are not doing their job

No, the earth has always heated up and cooled down due to the seasons. We are not in charge of the weather, but we could do a lot more to clean up our beautiful world.

Yes.Vote against the government

never heard so much bull shit in my 72 years on this earth, nature is a never ending cycle which is constantly changing, cut all this climate changing crap and just enjoy the life we have

i would not let it cost jobs

I definitely believe that climate change is caused by humans. There are far too many of us, and many people live without considering the effects they have each day on the environment. We recycle as much as we possibly can, all our vegetable peelings go into a composting bin, we use as little electricity as we can and keep all appliances not in use switched off and unplugged. Also, we keep plastic use to a minimum and reuse shopping pags continually.

Seems to be a part natural part human problem. We know we've had a number of ice ages, what do you call the warm bit in the middle of 2 ice ages? The distance to the Sun cannot be measured exactly, since it's the hottest thing around we should probably start there.

We often decide what we are going to do "depending on the weather" whether it suits the weather or not. We always hope for fine weather during the day and that it rains at night ... no we can't cause such a simple request to come true, only if it's a fluke of course, so doubt very much that we can create something of a greater magnitude. There weren't that many humans around the iceage era driving around and polluting the air with car fumes or industries with smoke billowing out ot their chimneys!!! What does lil' ol me do? Take from the earth what I need and give back what I don't and let Mother Nature and Father Time take care of the rest.

Whether man made or not...we are rapidly accelerating the process...we can slow it down a lot....we all know how...but we probably won't try enough...become extinct...and the planet will evolve and prosper....

Climate Change is a Natural Phenomenon BUT since the Industrial revolution (Thanks for that England) Huimans have been pumping muck into the AIR, SEA, RIVERS, LAND at every opportunity and doing so without a thought and not caring. It took the English over 100 years before they became aware the the river Thames was nothing more than an Open Sewer, Once you could catch fish and eat it from the Thames, then Humans destroyed to river and killed off all the fish etc.. This Human Disease swept the world, seas, rivers, lakes and land became so polluted they had to be closed to the public. Hopefully we are ALL now learning to clean up the mess we and those before us made and that we will leave the only world we have a cleaner, healthier place. Uf Governments, including the Militaristic Australian Federal Government would stop wasting hundreds of billions on Armaments etc, and spent it on addressing Climate Change the world would be healed that much quicker.

No.

Yes, I am a believer, we are seeing it already, firestorms, massive floods, increases in wild storms and fluctuations in weather patterns, increases in heat, if we don't act within this decade, the temperatures won't be at 1.5 degrees increase, they will start to rise towards + 2 degrees and beyond, then we are in real trouble. The permafrost and glaciers are already melting, just think of your grandchildren, and their children, do everything you can, in any way to help turn it around, everybody can contribute.

Don't know about climate change but the amount of rubbish floating in our oceans needs cleaning up!

I believe it is a combination of natural climate change combined with human causes. I recycle as much as I can and I use minimal water and plastics.

Yes I do.i do my bit as far as recycling everything I can.

The climate changes every day! - and even more so over time!

climate is always changing its a cycle we have not been around enough to understand it

Yes I do. I recycle as much as possible

it must be humans who have had the most influence on changing our climate,,, I can not do much to rectify things,,but in a small way I can change how I personally do things, I've invested in solar panels and solar battery to effectively rely solely on solar poere in my home, have opted out of the 'must have the latest electronic things and the fashion treadmill, and am sourcing the vast majority of my needs locally

It's mostly natural with the help of humans but we can spend a lot of money & recourses, and we won't stop it.

Humans have been changing climate for the worse for many years now but since they have recognised this we will change it for the better…lol

Since the climate has been changing since the world began it seems unlikely that we can stop it. I just don't understand how the only scientists that are heard are those who say it's what humans have done. What about the other scientists, and there are equal numbers, who say that is not true. The media are only interested in getting their own view across, very left wing I feel. However, we should live more cleanly by recycling etc.Edited 06-Jul-21 11:28am

No idea at all.

When my feet get cold I put on a warm hat.

We human beings have contributed to climate change

Although climate has natural cycles (eg ice ages) there is no doubt the industrial age of the last 300 years has had a massive effect on the environment.

As I'm not stupid, I'll go along with the 97% of sceintists who concur that it is casued by humans. Nothing against stupid people, they can believe what they want.

Many things cause climate change. Some natural (volcanoes) and some human. Of course there are some things we can do but that is limited. And co2 is required for the earth to function. Getting the balance right should be the aim.

Humans cause pollution and the destruction of animal habitats. We do contribute to climate change from the burning of fossil fuels but the earth is also aging.

Of course it is real and caused by Human Actions. Well the Big Business race for profit. Those places will do whatever they consider useful to make money as if no one remembers the Tabaco Lies that the Big Tabacco Companies came out with while all the time knowing what great big lies they where telling to continue making profits at the expense of everyone else. Only an idiot would now believe Big Business when they are saying Not Us we did nothing and so on. Back in the early 70's we saw the changes happening then on the farm where rainfall changed from little over long times to roughly the same amount in one or 2 hits and long periods of dry were the water ran out. Things have been getting progressively worse since then.

Nope

I go along with the majority of reputable scientists, who have concluded that human action has caused a real issue with climate change. The major contributor has been big business and only a very few profit from degrading our environment. So I find it quite interesting when I see or hear people quoting the big business mantras, like the current climate is really only part of the natural climate cycle that has been going on for thousands of years (to quote just one of the mantras they pay "buyable" scientists to say). The really interesting thing is that the rest of us are paying the price, not big business. Big business just reaps the profits.

I agree with JANN R it is part of the earths cycle, there was an ice age 11,700 years ago who caused that?.

I BELIEVE CLIMATE CHANGE IS A NATURAL PROGRESSION THAT CHANGES OVER THE CENTUREYS IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS

I believe there is a lot of things that factor in on climate change Edited 06-Jul-21 09:06am

I think Climate Change which is Global Warming due to Human Activities is a classic example of heavy negative actions having heavy negative consequences. We have to look after the Earth, it's our home planet! When establishing a project I think we must establish what's surely negative for the environment and what is not - eg. Renewable energy. We obviously didn't understand the full extent of the real environmental damage that can be caused - in the past. However, there's no excuse of not understanding how real negative environmental impact is, in our modern era!Edited 06-Jul-21 08:53am

Absolutely. We are here we cause it! Animals don’t burn fossil fuels

The world is overpopulated which results in a negative impact on earth (consumerism, food demand, cutting down forests for housing, etc). I live in a rural town and every second vehicle is a beastly 4WD. Climate change has occurred in the past, we're just speeding it up. Heck it's the middle of winter in NZ and my strawberries are fruiting!

I believe that climate change is another modern word for Global warning. It is not an exact science because even the scientists disagree with one another .I do not believe humans are responsible because it has happened before in our history. Examples would be the dinosaurs dying out; the Ice Age.

the young have sacrificed much for the old over covid 19 and will paying for it for years, be nice if the old would throw a bone and help a little with climate change

try to make better environmentally,

Climate change is a natural cycle. It is yet another fear forced upon us by governments and media.

I think it is a little of both, season changes and we should do all we can to minimize what we do in out homes and try to make better environmentally choices.

It's just a change of seasons .we've always had extreme weather patterns now and in the past . Now if a cow farts it's all over the interweb. If we have a fire of more than a few acres, it's a world ending event.I could go on, but I save my breath so as not to cause a rise in world temp

To quote an article I read yesterday, "Climate Change is a man-made myth". Before you react too strongly to that, let's call it what it actually is GLOBAL WARMING! The term "Climate Change" is a politically sanitised way of making An Inconvenient Truth less threatening and less profit eroding for those, political, corporate entities that profit from the environment. Could go on forever on that one, I'll keep trying to do my bit. I'll turn of my heater after my fingers have thawed out typing this! Think of it as Heat Exchange, The warmth from down here has gone north to Canada. If we can do something to share our natural resources more equally, I'm all for it! In the meantime check out this Australian You Tube channel. The language might offend some but it's fun! https://www.youtube.com/user/thejuicemedia/featured Edited 06-Jul-21 04:58am

I wish we could have had it sooner as it certainly has extended our summer and beach visits.

I don't know if humans are causing climate changes which it might cause by many factors.

I am not sure that climate change is caused by humans. Climate change is the nature of the Lord. That is what the Lord wanted to happen.

Absolutely. Radical change across industry, governments and households may help but I suspect we have left it too late.

NO!
