    My uber driver said that global warming is actually true but have literally nothing about human influence.

    Some years ago these persons were saying that global warming was a hoax, now that only the human influence is a hoax.

      Ahhh, yes. The conservative backpedalling.

      It’s not happening. It’s happening but it’s all cyclical. It’s not cyclical this time but it’s not our fault. It’s our fault but global warming is good ackshually. Global warming is bad but there’s nothing we can do about it. We could do something about it but it’s too expensive/late. Maybe it’s not too expensive but THE CHINESE!

        In stage one we say nothing is going to happen.

        Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.

        In stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there’s nothing we can do.

        Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it’s too late now.

      Had a argument with a person on YouTube, he thought that increased CO2 in the atmosphere would be beneficial. It would help plants grow better!

      Also that humans was not behind it.
