When the climate flips, the atmosphere, upper and lower, also flip. That's called change. Science didn't understand the weather as well as now, back at the last flip, which was about 20 years ago.

The corn crop is devistated by the gov and scientists, by making ethanol out of it and by biologically changing corn.

Tomatoes taste like mush because they have been bred for shipping. A good tasting tomato cannot be shipped. Grow your own or go to a farmer's market. Good tasting tomatoes are not pretty and they will cost more. A good tasting tomato usually has black cracks near the top from its rapid on the vine ripening.

I grew up growing my own tomatoes and still miss the taste of a properly grown home tomato. Where I live now it does not get hot enough for decent tomatoes.

The climate flips from hotter to colder and back again, with regularity. Shit happens.
Except :--

It's happening quicker now - a lot quicker

The GW properties of c02 have been understood for a hundred years and can be verified in a lab

A conspiracy of the type you suggest by scientists would be unsustainable.

Of course some would suggest that the crap you regurgitate is simply propaganda from lobbying firms that are funded by the old companies - but you would be that naive would you

1) You're using the term "Evolutionist" -- which is a BIOLOGICAL reference to describe cosmological events.
2) I'm suremost everybody has 'opinions' on the matter of "The Big Question(s). But those are OPINIONS only, not fodder for scientific scrutiny or discussion worth the weight that you're attempting to impose upon it. Perhaps you should go on over to the Philosophy threads for a better response.
3) "I/We" don't know **IS** a viable, and honest response whether you like it or not.
You are not typing peer-reviewed science Kong. I am just asking for your honest opinion. And you are NOT the science. You are not the experiment. You are a person who has an opinion so out with it. What is this code of silence that you people keep? Can you not think?

Our winters will steadily increase and the summers decrease. This winter was stronger than the last 10 winters.

Science has shown multiple lines of independent data that show that the opposite is actually happening.

Actually this bout of climate change started about 10,000 years ago. With a steady rise until the late 1800s. Then the increase, increased and then skyrocketed in the last 60 years

Lets see you argue with NASA data

Biologically changing corn has saved over a billion lives. Bio engineered corn is resistant to drought conditions and disease. African countries, India, China etc now has considerably less problem feeding their populations now than 50 years ago

Ethanol production is a by-product of this abundance which has grown, driven by commercial greed in western countries.

Daily Horoscope for May 20

Aries

As the Sun cruises into chatty Gemini, you are likely to get involved in a spirited discussion in which you can explain your beliefs and values to other people. Not only will this help you to clarify what you think, it will also give others a useful insight into what really matters to you. On a more mundane note, this is a good day to return something faulty to a shop because you'll be able to put your case well.
