    Yes, actual measurements and statistical trends. Not something for the hysterical AGW dogma that claims weather is global warming.

    In my opinion that's the best part of the GND. Challenging! But the only reason we wouldn't meet it is not technological or logistics or financial or... anything like that. It's purely partisan political divisions. So if we were to agree to implement it, it would heal much of that division

    We're going to go from 13% to 100% in ten years? Seriously?

    Are you serious, President Kennedy? Putting a man on the moon and bringing him back? In less than a decade? You're nuts! That can't be done!

    The only one nuts are those that think you can go 100% renewables in 10-12 years without nuclear.

    So you're saying we're going to go from 13% renewable contribution all the way to 100% in 10 years?

    What made AOC an expert on climate?

    Why do so many actual scientists tell us to stop worrying?

    Let me count up the years of this peddling by Democrats.

    Gore was out of office early 2001. Recall his famous film?

    A damned disaster.

    It is now 18 years later.

    NY city is not close to being flooded. Florida is as much above water as in 2001.

    Sorry I am not alarmed yet.

    I find it very informative that those who want us off crude oil, are enormously insulted at us going to nuclear power. We proved it works so well it is in Navy ships. If a navy ship has a problem at sea, who will help it? I mean who will stop a nuclear reaction at sea? This is what they fear about plants. The run amok reactor. When has our ships had that problem?

    What the hell? We do not seek harm to blacks. And for the homosexual, they are funny. When growing up, Democrats called them queers. I am serious. At that time Democrats even called blacks the dreaded N word. I heard it all the time.

    But to harm a homosexual? What on God's earth for? A famous president who called blacks the N word was President Johnson. I doubt Truman said it but he was from MO. And Truman permitted blacks to fight in combat.

    You may want to look up some of Truman's quotes.

    I can't even post them here they are that bad and I certainly won't link to that vile hatred.

    But what else can we expect from the democratic party?

    This is how they talk.

    Nonsense. Even with everyone on board just that coast to coast high speed rail would take longer than ten years to build. There simply aren't enough track layers and tracks for high speed rail are a whole other level of difficulty over and above anything that's previously been laid in the US. Then we don't have enough manufacturing to make enough solar panels and wind turbines and enough trained crews to install them in every building in the US in a decade.

    Did you know that his entire movie has been debunked at this point?

    In fact, did you know that after he made his millions from that adventure the first thing he did was go and buy a mansion on the Florida Coast?

    Hahahahaha

    The left are suckers and Gore was laughing all the way to the bank.

    By comparison putting a man on the moon is child's play.

    I have seen more flooding stopped by man than caused by man.

    This flooding was stopped by man. This is about a dozen miles north of me.

    The complete and absolute ignorance on the right.

    Compared to them, anybody who understands even the most basic concepts so Science is a Climate Change Einstein.

    Because ignorant people don't understand that what scientists tell us is irrelevant. That the only thing relevant is what they can prove.

    See above you question re-what made AOC an expert. Despite that being a fact, neither AOC nor Gore are scientists.

    And 17 of the 18 hotest years recorded globally have happened since then

    Huh??? Of course they have. Flooding here in Florida due to sea level rising is a huge problem. Homes in my neighborhood were far from any flood zone when I bought my house in 2003. Now flood insurance is mandatory for everybody who buys a home here.

    https://www.flseagrant.org/climate-change/sea-level-rise/

    They used to mark your driver's license if you lived in a flood area. They don't do that anymore because the whole state is considered a flood area.

    And we have a Republican Governor, Republican State Congress and two Republican Senators. So this is not a liberal thing. It's just a common sense thing. You're just missing the train.

    Despite whatever you have heard on the denialist media, the alternatives are not becoming alarmed vs remaining in ignorance. The only thing asked of denialists is to just not stand in the way.

    I'm still afraid of the ice age they said was coming when I was in middle school. Fear the ice age.

    Are your property values climbing or falling? Why do you live in Florida when CO has plenty of mountains you could live well above the flood zones?
