    Paid by taxes funding a government led initiative. What does it matter if the government contracted out the work?

    Yeah, that's why we all starved to death in the great famines of the '70's and NYC is now under water.

    Oil is not a renewable energy source. It’s a fossil fuel. Fossil fuels a a non-renewable energy source.

    Agreed. Did you have a point or are you just saying a true thing?

    Are you doing your part? Do you vote for government officials that support strong social safety nets?

    Sure, why not? They’ve been putting satellites into space since 2016. I could see them being a valued scientific partner in the near future.

    Different models predict different levels of extremes. Scientists work with their best understanding of the facts and, the good ones at least, let their views evolve along with our understanding.

    I don’t put anyone on ignore. I’m not afraid of anyone’s views around here.

    It might not be renewable, but as technology increases, we find more and more vast reserves of it every year.

    What is your definition of renewable then? You think we will run out of "fossil" fuels?

    It’s still not renewable, and even if it were we need to move away from energy sources that we have to burn. Fossil fuels are major contributors to climate change.

    Do you think it is a finite resource? I don't.

    Probably not to be honest. There’s a good chance we’ll render the planet incapable of sustaining human life before we run out of oil to burn.

    Doesn't matter.

    It doesn't have to be. It just has to last long enough for us to develop better technology.

    Don't worry. If we stop using fossil fuels they'll find some other behavior you engage in that causes global warming.
