Nothing ignorant about high schoolers voicing their opinions bro.
True, but have they studied the issues or are they following the general liberal teachings of their parents and instructors......... :smt006

The same could have been asked of the students and their conservative teachings when they tore apart Ole Miss University after the 2012 election. The bigger point, whether they're conservative or liberal, is that people of this age group are engaged and involved the process, and have an opinion on the direction of the country. Hard to find too much fault in that, right ?

Yes, but there is no other side to engage in the dialogue in this county.  It is sad that this opinion is common in this area and I wouldn't expect them to think any different because no one teaches both sides, that is why I say ignorant, opinion yes, truth, questionable and challegeable.  This action is not engaged or involved, it's a bit of a rant founded in fear.  I blame the public school instruction, the media, and the bubble that is Marin.

Yup. They are following the liberal teachings of their parents and instructors. (And just about every scientist in the world...)

I was trying to figure out a way to address this part but haven't figured out an eloquent way to put it.  I agree with this.  The schools give the kids that want to vent a safe place to do it and they don't take the opportunity to talk about the consequences - because there aren't any.

I have a whole lot more respect for the kid that goes over to SF and jumps into the protests there than the ones in their safe space suburban bubble in Marin.  You can hardly call that a "protest", there aren't any consequences or even any vocal opposition.  It's in a school ffs.  Thats just coddling. 

What, exactly, are the schools teaching by allowing these kids to do this?

Wow such a surprise that global warming is still considered debatable by some. Admittedly born and lived most my life near the SF bay area but kinda started assuming everyone was on the same page in regards to this.

Wish I was as good at presenting my opinion as Ski Pro Jerry has. He had some interesting points that even though I did not agree with most of his conclusions I could see how he got to them. Really helped understand the Americans that voted for Trump.

America is a pretty great  and diverse country doubt it will change too much too quickly but we shall see.

Dude, if CO2 weren't a problem the whole world would rejoice. Such findings, if held up against rigorous scrutiny would be on every front page and every meme on FB. "I told you so" would be the GOPs new slogan. I personally would be dancing in the streets.

I am not dancing in the streets.

Or maybe they were just reacting to the man as he presented himself. Using the word Liberal to label someone reacting negatively to Trumps election is a cop out. I have friends who are much more conservative than I who could not bring themselves to vote for the man, a view generally held by their children as well.

OK let's just make pretend that climate change isn't real, and that this increasing atmospheric carbon concentration thing doesn't do squat to temperature. Let's just pretend.


If you like fishing then you should probably care about atmospheric CO2.  These statements should give you significant pause:

In a mixture of gases, each gas has a partial pressure which is the hypothetical pressure of that gas if it alone occupied the volume of the mixture at the same temperature. The total pressure of an ideal gas mixture is the sum of the partial pressures of each individual gas in the mixture. The solubility of a gas in a liquid depends on temperature, the partial pressure of the gas over the liquid, the nature of the solvent and the nature of the gas. Aqueous carbon dioxide, CO2 (aq), reacts with water forming carbonic acid, H2CO3 (aq). Carbonic acid may loose protons to form bicarbonate, HCO3- , and carbonate, CO32-. In this case the proton is liberated to the water, decreasing pH.

Would some of you climate deniers look into this matter. Please?

Climate change might be real, I just don't believe it's settled about who or how.............I do find it arrogant that humans think they can control it.  Yes, we should take care of the environment on both sides but the planet has been through worse, supposedly, dancing or not is ok............

Couldn't muster a vote for him either.  Is progressive a better term than liberal?
