Any reputable source can provide you with information about the warming trend. (I suspect you might not know what a trend is so feel free to google it)
Australia never had fires before global warming? I must inform all the uni-professors about this as they seem to think there have been. Or you mean there haven't been as many in your life time and you are just now noticing them?
Have a look at this list." I want to point two interesting things out to you, the first is that the recent fires are the only major fires to have occurred October, which is very early in (or before) the bushfire season. Only two occurred in November, the rest occurring in December or latter, to me that would suggest that the climate is changing. The second thing I'd point out is the frequency of major bushfires has increased. I also take it that you are turning a blind eye to the number of weather records broken this year.
And those pesky third world countries that could have never survived this long without you caring over them. What will they ever do? I mean it isn't like Venice or Holland has any insight into this situation. It isn't like making buildings and islands is out of the question. Most worst case scenarios place the sea level rises at 2 to 5 feet over the next 90 or so years. It will be unpossible for anyone to do anything about it. Well, you can relax, most of them will be knocked off by typhoons and hurricanes that have never happened before global warming too. Or are you thinking of the Maldives who are not too poor to purchase another set of islands-
Yes because third world countries can afford to build dikes and islands in place far less suitable to them as Venice or Holland. I don't think anyone's saying there was no typhoons or hurricanes before global warming (unless you are?). No, what people are saying (with data to back it up) is that the frequency of typhoons and hurricanes are increasing. Sea level rises are predicted to increase the flooding of cities, but they will also have a very real impact on the tourism industry doing significant economic damage
As for the Psychiatrist, I think maybe you should be the one seeking it. I see you completely ignored the part about saving money being a fallacy and instead went for the emotional arguments. That is either because you are a con artist who knows nothing purposed to fix climate change actually touches it or that you have been brainwashed into thinking anything in the name of it good. Either way, it not a sign of good mental health.
I'm afraid science disagrees with you there, there is a lot we can do. I went for the more obviously flawed arguments, because I shouldn't need to explain why saving money at the expense of those who will have to live in the world you destroyed is immoral.
I think you might need to see a psychiatrist... I for one will be alive when the major changes take effect (within the next ten years
If you think the worst from climate change is going to be in the next 10 years, I think you are the one who should consider help. Not that I'm saying we should do nothing. But even if we stopped adding CO2 to the atmosphere tomorrow, it would take more than ten years for the full effect of what has been done to be realized.
I said nothing about the full effect, we may not see that for a century or more. I said major changes, as in changes that will realistically effect peoples lives in a major way. Models indicate that these will increasingly occur during the next ten years (and longer).
Same for me. I hardly ever use the button to open it in another viewer.
Neither do I because I disabled it, however I do go back and test it every now and then and the best I could say is the loading time matches that of Adobe reader. For large pdfs it is much, much slower and often crashes. (On 25.0)
When did you last test it?
Today, on 25.0. I find it still has terrible unicode support, struggles to render older pdfs, can't fill out pdf forms, and crashes frequently. It also seems to take longer than Adobe reader to open larger pdfs.
The majority of the pdfs I use fall into one of the above categories.
I get some news from Facebook and I also post some (usually political) news on Facebook. Often Facebook provides you with news you wouldn't have otherwise read (not big enough to be on a major news site, unpopular, etc). You also have the advantage that you know your friends political views, which makes it much easier to tell if they are spinning something.
They aren't exactly saying that he actually had anybody killed, only that he might have tried to buy two murders-for-hire.
Yes, they are saying that. It was one of the things he was charged with and its on his arrest warrant. (which I'll let you google, it's public record)
