    " I just happen to have paid enough attention to the Discovery Channel when I was like 12 years old to know that “global warming” is a bunch of bull."

    Is this what passes as scientific education in the conservative world? Explains a lot.

    The history of the Earth is full of completely natural shifts in temperature from one extreme to the other with every imaginable variation in between. This is just another of those shifts which will eventually correct itself, as natural history shows.

    Protestor says to Coralie: "The snow on global warming protest day was surreal."

    Coralie to Protestor: "No, it was ironic!"

    I'm afraid your 'science education' was somewhat lacking, and you've been reading too many of the lies put out by big oil as a disinformation campaign. The Earth isn't cooling, it's warming, just because it was hotter once means nothing, there were no humans around then, in fact there were no animals around then, the environment wouldn't have supported them. After many millions of years of trees taking up carbon and locking it down under the soil [think oil and coal, ok?] the atmosphere supported animal life which eventually resulted in the naked ape, who relatively quickly evolved to the point where they dug up most of the buried carbon and burnt it.
    If you think you could survive in a climate like existed at the dawn of the planet's evolution then you're misguided. A 12 year old has very little understanding of anything, I suggest you try reading some adult books, there are plenty about, one, titled 6 Degrees by Mark Lynas spells out in one degree increments what is happening and will happen. By the time you get to three degrees I assure you you will be scared, if you make it to six you will be terrified. But you don't want that, you want to carry on your life without a worry. So you won't, you'll shelter in your 12 year old mindset and refuse to accept what's staring you in the face.
