    Why yes I understand the process of erosion quite well. It seems you are the one is rather ignorant of the processes

    consider your use of the the term "land" as proof positive.


    land
    land/
    noun
    1. 1.
      the part of the earth's surface that is not covered by water, as opposed to the sea or the air.
      "the reptiles lay their eggs on land"
      synonyms: terra firma, dry land; More
    anytime you'd like to debate geology, I'm available to educate you.

    No, we understand it. We call it "complete bullshit".

    What claims that have been rebutted?

    That paris is non-binding?

    I would believe that you aren't interested in listening to a recording of propaganda if you werent so obviously and heavily invested in your own.

    What part of "sand doesn't magically disappear" regarding beach front erosion don't you understand? If you'd like to discuss beachfront erosion I'd be happy to school you.

    So you think that when somebody "signs" an open published letter urging some particular action, its complete bullshit to conclude that the signator actually believes and endorses such actions?

    Can't get much more ignorantly partisan than that.

    You seem to be playing to a like minded audience, since they no doubt believe your jknee jerk rejection of reality is so much more than yet another simple and pathetic example of your command of complete bullshit.

    What part of the definition of LAND do you not understand?

    Even when it's put right in front of you fail.

    Yes beachfront is LAND. Erosion of the beachfront REDUCES land area. This stuff is taught in grade school. Let me know when you graduate.

    It's just another case of the term "going full retard" in action. Here in Florida we get battered in the winter by gale force northeasters, and when paired with extreme gravitational pull from moon coinciding with higher than normal tides, the beaches can get pummeled in a hurry in a matter of days. It has ZILCH to do with rising ocean levels overall. NONE. NADA. ZILCH.

    If you ask me his attempt to get Mitt Romney to be his Secretary of State was
    brilliant but the backlash from his supporters was so severe he gave in to them.......

    He is wisely getting used to the idea that he has to politic.... and cannot arbitrarily
    do what is obviously the better decision.......... besides.... Mitt will come in handy soon.......

    If it were not for my vote there would be only 11 for 150 or higher.........

    Is President Trump's IQ around 156?
    http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?threads/is-president-trumps-iq-around-156.497274/

    My guess as to President Trump's IQ?
    1. *
      150 or higher
      12 vote(s)
      19.7%

    2. 140 - 149
      6 vote(s)
      9.8%

    3. 130 - 139
      6 vote(s)
      9.8%

    4. less than 130
      37 vote(s)
      60.7%

    True....... but a carbon tax would probably merely bend the handle of the hockey stick graph for Mr. Gore.......
    it would not actually address the cause of cracking and sliding of ice on the West Antarctic Ice Sheet soon enough so......


    A carbon tax will NOT work fast enough to address WAIS collapse.
    http://www.politicalforum.com/index...-fast-enough-to-address-wais-collapse.443154/




    Since..... the Bay of Fundy funnels tidal water in such a way that
    we get the world's highest tides...... it is possible that we will be hit
    economically before any other nation........ Considering the vast sums that America has spent
    defending us Canadians since 1950..... it seems only fair that we Canadians should finance
    a plan to attempt to protect some of our own towns and cities from the probable threat of rising ocean levels.......

    America for the most part has has awakened and smelled the coffee, and it's not watered down MMGW brew the media serves with a dash of saltpeter. You are correct, we will not get there, our bullshit detectors are working just fine.

    Sorry, I wasn't responding to that conversation. I don't think carbon taxes is the answer either. YOu old enough to recall the Scientific Tax Credit scam? Millions made by financiers, not much invested in science.

    The sheep are the ones in favor of supporting the Paris Folly. Have you sent your contribution in yet? That's right, I thought not.

    “Expected climate evolution”, eh.

    Not sure which is funnier ... that ... or your handle, MensaMind ... lol.

    Where’d ya hear that climate evolution thing, 'Mensa', the Rush Limbaugh program?

    Right-wingers really need to turn off college dropouts like Limbaugh and Hannity and spend more time reading ‘sites like the National Academy of Sciences...

    http://nas-sites.org/climate-change/summary.html


    Dropouts like Limbaugh and Hannity are making you right-wingers look like a bunch of dumb chimps…

    Lunatics are the ones who thought obama was going to make the oceans stop rising

    Sea walls prevent erosion that beaches all over the world suffer from with or without the man-made-global-warming hoax

    Sure - he calls it a hoax to appease a hysterical batch of ideologues - then goes and applies for a seawall to combat the effects of climate change.

    Idiocy.

    He calls the idiocy of MMGW a hoax. Nobody has claimed the climate doesn't change.
