adapt or perish.We won't advance to a type 3 civilization over night and if we can't master the weather we are already fucked.
that you are right about. if its any consolation, it wont happen during your lifetime.I also fear that this adaptation entails more brown hordes in my country and I don't want that as I'm a white man and greatly value the cold dark nights of winters past.
actually, we are about to exit the very temporary interglacial period and enter the next ice age. europe and north america will become unlivable and everyone will be fighting over the tropics which will be the only remaining land of plenty. when life starts being precious and underpopulation the new problem, no one will be talking about the rights of brown people or faggots. -

GET OUT, you mean to tell me that devastating climate change has been happening without our permission?
just a little advice, stop copy pasting and present one point at a time, nobody has time to correct every single ill informed contradiction that you posted without bothering to read it beforehand.
Look at Kev, fighting that straw man he built. -

What is hilarious is you thinking you're winning anything at all while you've wasted and continue to waste the golden years of your pathetic life being a contrarian loser on a forum full of losers like rats running around on a sinking ship. -

No, it's actually a fundamental truth of quantum mechanics. Or kinda... There is some stuff that is probably impossible. We just have to be lucky enough to be in that one timeline where it works out. I like my chances. -

that is in the same ballpark as thinking you can will things to happen, its irrational. but if its consoling, so be it. -

It is indeed irrational but that doesn't stop it from, maybe, being true. There's a bunch of stuff in physics that is completely irrational. Retrocausality for example that tells us that the future influences the past. The quantum zeno effect that tells us that an observer influences the decay of a particle. Human senses and perception are far from being the end all be all. Life on earth barely makes any sense what so ever yet here we are. The fact that we developed intelligence and can have this discussion is far far far more unlikely than us controlling the climate with that intelligence.
