Hmm, this is interesting. A true Hurricane Sandy?
current

Considering my fan-base here. I probably should not bother but what do you folks think about the following?

Are they trying to control weather or not? Honestly I don't know what to think. We know, doomsday click-bait has been around for a very long time but could we miss actual Science being practiced today?

For you scientists out there
Wth?

short on time?

FF to {18 - 21 minutes} and {22,30 - 22,50 minutes}

Is this some sort of fear-mongering magic-act? Or should more of us look into this and "tweet"? Or just carry-on? Btw, I'm doing the latter, one way or another.

Resurrecting the thread because I had a little evil realization regarding the topic.
Over here at least the coverage on climate change, global warming, and eco-activism has been increased exponentially over the year, which I guess it's something that happened everywhere else.

Meanwhile Trump is having his little skirmish with China the new EU commission is planning to implement measures to protect the environment, ok, fine, they are also deciding to not count them as deficit investments, so basically they're going to gift money for that, ok, fine.

So, since we had our little "soft coup" the green agenda got into government and one of the first claims was: "Let's tax kid sweets" a finny thing, but it was meant to disincentivize the industrial production of those products and the purchase of said items. Well, ok, I don't really care, but are we sure that taxing those will help our economy? Considering obese children it will definetly help.

Ok, fat jokes aside, this proposal was quickly shut down by Giggino, in the hopes of halting the crashing down of his party, but instead came another proposal.
Let's make environment-friendly products VAT-free, cool. How are we going to finance this? Obviously by increasing taxes on fuel.
And if there's one thing that Italians will accept is taxes on fuel, and I'm not being sarcastic, we still pay these taxes on fuel:
- Contribution for the earthquake in Emilia in 2012, the emergency should've passed, but ok, considering our times of rebuilding.
- Contribution for the Saving Italy decree 2011, still paying for that? Well, extra cash is fine I guess.
...
-Contribution for contract renewals of tramways 2004, uhh, do they have to give that money yearly?
- Contribution for the Italian mission in Bosnia 1996, are we still fighting the Serbs? Didn't know we still do boots on the ground there.
...
- Contribution for the earthquake of the Irpinia of 1980, wait... The other two are also even older earthquakes, if you can find a pattern.
Let's skip to the oldest... Drumroll...
- Contribution for the Second Ethiopian war of 1935-1936, now I understand the need for reparations, we still are waging colonial wars apparently.

So... Considering all that... Do you expect the Italians to rise up like the French for gas price hikes?

Anyway, got stuck in that little tangent, because we Italians are the smartest in Europe, and also the most gullible apparently, so I wouldn't want that all of this coverage is done to push more hidden taxes without destroying the consensus of the ruling parties.
Because let's be honest, governments are anti-people, if they thought they could get away with denying climate change to increase industrial production (like the USA and China do) they would do the same, but in a deindustrialised Europe, where manufacturing is expensive with minimal returns what can you do?
Push taxes, do it for the environment, because the people will eat it up like gourmet food, especially the northern Europeans, who are already ideologically aligned with those ideas.

Think about the consequences then, they aren't pushing for real alternatives, we still are in a 20th century industrial mindset, so we will be forced to still use environmentally damaging products, at an higher price of course, or use inefficient and outdated alternatives, thus buying more, and paying more.

Basically, not going to the merit of climate change, is that an excuse to line their pockets while they play the saviours?

@Neraus:

Manmade climate change is real, but it's also true that it is being exploited by neo Marxists in order to push certain agendas in society.

So, it's quite a mess when you have pathological narcissists in positions of power that are tasked with selflessly solving global problems.

Climate change is true! I played ice hockey, where was a full winter. But my grandama and grandpa said that their time snow mass was much more and colder. Ok nowadays snow doesn't appear in our city. Those are thin snow and weather is simple black. So climate change was long years, but pernicious in the future. We don't know what is limit. Therefore, if there is a suitable temperature for the climate to do destruction. Too late! Yeah hard to say about climate change: The Biblical (caused by humans) or natural (we had Ice Age, etc). If we cause climate, we will be able to repair a climate. Money-riches brake on climate matter. Don't worry, when you'll die before Amen.

Global warming is one of a lot ways to grab our freedom using by globalists. Greta is Rockefeller puppet to make idiots from global mankind. They want absolute rule in whole world. CO2 limits are like chains of captivity for national economies. Its evil plan secretly realised. There is no coinciddences.

Global doom is inevitable.

Humans, as any other species, are greedy. They expand their population until they hit the limit of environment.

The issue is, humans are changing environment permanently. Global industry already consumes more resources than Earth is enable to renew - we're already all on credit. The result => global and total bankrupcy. What follows is the rapid depopulation.

Further possible scenarios are: total extinction, wastelands a'la Mad Max or one of these dystopias where people live underground and / or just in virtual reality. My best guess is that rich people will survive, and poor people will be replaced by robots.

We will see the fall of western civilisation during our lives.
