yeah me too, will be nice to get a taste of what it was really like in Roman and Egyptian times as it was over 3 degrees higher on average for them than it is now.

In Florida numerous insurance companies are pulling out of renewing further contracts with oceanfront properties, this is local news here so you all may not know that, similarly to how they won't insure forest fire area vacinity homes in California. Many insurers are also making plans to exit the state entirely.
Someone told me the entire state is going to collapse into the water out of the blue one day, and I told him that is God's Will Florida is very similar to Sodom and Gemorrah and it would be for the best to drown all of us quickly.
Has been a common way for insurance companies to avoid liability for many years.Contract law
In the law of contracts, an act of God may be interpreted as an implied defense under the rule of impossibility or impracticability. If so, the promise is discharged because of unforeseen occurrences, which were unavoidable and would result in insurmountable delay, expense, or other material breach.[citation needed]
Under the English common law, contractual obligations were deemed sacrosanct, so failure to honour a contract could lead to an order for specific performance or internment in a debtor's prison. In 1863, this harsh rule was softened by the case of Taylor v Caldwell which introduced the doctrine of frustration of contract, which provided that "where a contract becomes impossible to perform and neither party is at fault, both parties may be excused their obligations". In this case, a music hall was burned down by act of God before a contract of hire could be fulfilled, and the court deemed the contract frustrated.[citation needed]
In other contracts, such as indemnification, an act of God may be no excuse, and in fact may be the central risk assumed by the promisor—e.g., flood insurance or crop insurance—the only variables being the timing and extent of the damage. In many cases, failure by way of ignoring obvious risks due to "natural phenomena" will not be sufficient to excuse performance of the obligation, even if the events are relatively rare: e.g., the year 2000 problem in computers. Under the Uniform Commercial Code, 2-615, failure to deliver goods sold may be excused by an "act of God" if the absence of such act was a "basic assumption" of the contract, and the act has made the delivery "commercially impracticable".[citation needed]
Recently, human activities have been claimed to be the root causes of some events previously considered natural disasters. In particular:
Geothermal injections of water provoking earthquakes (Basel, Switzerland, 2003)[8]
Drilling provoking mud volcano (Java, 2008)[9]
As a general principle of act of God,[10] epidemic can be classified as an act of God if the epidemic was unforeseeable and renders the promise discharged if the promisor cannot avoid the effect of the epidemic by exercise of reasonable prudence, diligence and care, or by the use of those means which the situation renders reasonable to employ.[11]

That last line is interesting, would love to see Al Gore in court arguing that his waterfront property being flooded was unforeseeable lol.

2023-07-18 at 6:50 PM UTCHouse Republicans propose planting a trillion trees as they move away from climate change denial
The idea — simple yet massively ambitious — revealed recent Republican thinking on how to address climate change. The party is no longer denying that global warming exists, yet is searching for a response to sweltering summers, weather disasters and rising sea levels that doesn’t involve abandoning their enthusiastic support for American-produced energy from burning oil, coal and gas.
Note: Planting a trillion trees is not the same as planting a thriving self sustaining full forest ecosystem. -
2023-07-18 at 6:52 PM UTCThere's three trillion trees on the entire planet, dummy. Lay off the crack.

2023-07-18 at 7:23 PM UTCWhat's funny is these complete fools who think any blowhard politician would actually plant a trillion trees, a third of the world's trees. Beyond hope!

Nobody saying global warming doesn't exist you retard, its always existed, long before man did. The fact your side say we deny it exists just shows how much full of shit they are.

2023-07-18 at 10:57 PM UTCAlexa? What is the most ice ever recorded in Antarctica?
Alexa: During the Southern Hemisphere winter of 2014, Antarctic sea ice actually grew to a record high of more than 7,782,275 square miles. -

Originally posted by Xlite Its funny how waterfront properties are more expensive than inland housing considering the obbe-fact that they're all about to be below water.
Can you quote me claiming that? No, you can't, because I never did.
Originally posted by Xlite So yeah, lets all listen to obbe and ignore the most powerful people in the world.
You have to build these strawmen to attack because you're not able to dispute the actual facts of reality.

Same, don't understand why or how some of these folks who aren't just attempting to troll are actually living in such denial.

I've never heard of anyone saying the climate never changed before man existed. But I have heard plenty of denial that the actions of man could affect how the climate changes or the rate at which it changes. All I am posting are scientific studies and news articles about the anthropocene, the collapse, and that topic isn't limited to climate change. Not looking to convince anyone of anything because I couldn't care less about your opinion, but based on the plethora of information I have linked to in this thread you would have to be mentally retarded to keep living in that state of denial. If any of you had any information that could dispute anything I've linked to in this thread you would surely have posted something by now. None of you have. A lot of laughable propaganda and utter nonsense, sure, but nothing real.
The fact that you believe so whole heartedly that there are different sides and there is some worthwhile battle is evidence of how stupid you are. The rich and powerful want exactly that. The more the masses fight themselves, the easier it becomes to rob their pockets, devalue their labour and hoard natural resources for themselves. Don't hate me for posting the news. Hate the elite for making this your reality. There will always be corruption in human organizations. If you can prove what I am posting is bullshit then do it. I know you never will.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Then continues to post 305 page fred trying way to hard to convince a few muppets on NIS of climate changeIf you can prove what I am posting is bullshit then do it. I know you never will.
305 pages people have been proving what you say is bullshit, you just refuse to listen and bury your scared little faggot head in the sand.
also, fucking hell, you don't even realize there are two sides in this battle, lol.
