    Yes you can deny the science all you want but you know who won’t? The insurance companies. When no one will insure houses in FL I’m sure the GOP will rush to the rescue.

      Also, notably, the Pentagon (US DoD), which has been making plans for preparing or moving facilities (especially navy bases) for rising sea levels and other climate change effects for at least 2 decades.

      When I learned about that it made perfect sense, because long-term projections and planning is what they do, and I realized that everyone who denied the climate change evidence was an ignorant fool. If DoD is doing prep work for it then there’s more than just evidence of occurrence, there’s enough practical data to do serious planning with.

        That makes an excellent point to bring up with deniers. Love to see one stumble-fuck around trying to praise the military while saying they must be run by liberals.

          It is a good point but I have a family member who will begrudgingly not push back too much about whether climate change is happening (though you can tell he wants to) but will argue that you can’t prove it’s man made.

          You’re fighting decades of propaganda and it’s hard.
