How would asking an individual pilot to stop flying help the situation? Is he asking you or anyone else to give up driving?

Does he build the aircraft himself?

Should all of the pro AGW taxi drivers to stop ferrying people around for a living?

Maybe we can ask pro AGW Ambulance drivers to give it a rest while we're at it?

This is a ridiculous argument.
Taxing stuff and "carbon credits" etc aren't doing anything material about it IMO. .
Great cash generating scheme for big polluters though; TATA Steel, ring any bells Gadgetmac?

Yeah.

1. That you never explained what the fk you were going on about

2. You got me and LoonyTunes mixed up

Professor. hehe
So you're not Loony/GM/Stovey, just GM/Stovey? biggrin
In the same way that you're not a professor/flat earther just a flat earther biggrin
Er, no. I don’t believe the earth is flat.
You don’t need to, it’s a metaphor.
I don’t believe the earth is flat.

Do you understand the concept of non sequitur? (Rhetorical question).
I see your "PhD" doesn't help with Analogies then prof.
It's not an analogy or a metaphor; it's just a cheap, hackneyed and ultimately pathetic failed strategy to denigrate those who hold a position that you disagree with. It just serves to demonstrate that you can't really think for yourself.

Irony Of The Day: the Flat Earth Society has tweeted belief in manmade climate change,because there's so much evidence (and that society should know about such things)

It just serves to demonstrate that I really am hanging out with the other cultists on this.

It figures that he would be a go-to guy for you though.

You really are a card. Every scientific institution in the world? Oh really? Have you checked the position of every single one? And don't keep banging on about the mythical 97% consensus - does you even fewer favours than your incessant recourse to the 'flat earther' rubbish. Anyone would think you're a troll. Oh wait.

Well faux-pro, start naming some scientific institutions that don't believe in AGW.

It's been asked a thousand times before on this thread and never got a single reply.

Get started. I'll wait. And remember, the Heartland Institute funded by big oil doesn't count.

Don't like 97%?

Well I'll take NASA's website as my source for that. "Multiple studies published in peer reviewed scientific journals show that 97% OR MORE of actively publishing climate scientists agree".

Does the GWPF disagree then?

Reading something, and then agreeing with it isn't science. Or didn't you know that?

Yeah sorry, I don't have my own lab and facilities in the Arctic to do the research myself.

You realise that that you just nullified 97% of your dear leaders posts right?

biggrin


ETA: You also realise that reading something (ie The BBC science page),'and then disagreeing with it with zero evidence or climate science credentials yourself is even less science. Or didn't you know this?

I was referring to the supposed 97% of consensus by other Scientists. Read what I said correctly next time.

Data says Japanese winters are cool, Finland is getting even cooler, Great Lakes ice grows,California snow pack hits a record and water level ('permanent drought') equalled the State's all-time record (JMA, NOAA, CDWR)

Meanwhile guess what the alarmist gigoesque agw predictions were/are...no detail is needed, 'wrong as usual' will do.
maybe next year wink

Aren't you even a little concerned that rather than fess up and just say that they now have differences of opinion etc they tried to claim that he was never a founder of the organisation. They went and changed their website etc etc.

Unfortunately for them the internet never forgets and it just looks like a cover up, when many claims exist about the changing of historical data.

It's not exactly a good look is it?

You are right, the internet never forgets.

Greenpeace say:

Patrick Moore frequently portrays himself as a founder or co-founder of Greenpeace, and many news outlets have repeated this characterization. Although Mr. Moore played a significant role in Greenpeace Canada for several years, he did not found Greenpeace. Phil Cotes, Irving Stowe, and Jim Bohlen founded Greenpeace in 1970. Patrick Moore applied for a berth on the Phyllis Cormack in March, 1971 after the organization had already been in existence for a year. A copy of his application letter and Greenpeace’s response are available here (PDF).

The PDF in question is available on Greenpeaces website and is a hand written letter to Greenpeace applying for a position on their ship protesting the nuclear testing to be done by the US Atomic Energy Commission.

He goes on to explain that he is currently a graduate student at UBC working towards a PhD.

It's 100% conclusive that at that point Greenpeace existed and that he wasn't a member.

Again, this is fake news surrounding the credentials of a denier who has decided to take big oil's coin.

Do you have any contrary evidence?

You know there's a difference between a founder and a first member right?

And to back that point up read his letter asking to join a Greenpeace demonstration from his current position at UBC

Come on London...Why would you ask to join a committee that you founded?

How could he have founded an organisation that had already been in existence for over a year?
