Yeah, CC is really funny Barney. For years, I have watched GG tell you guys what wackos there are on this Board, and he is so right. As I said, good luck to you all.

It would be easy to continue to argue this, but frankly, you aren't worth my time. CommonFNsense could smack you right in the face and you would refuse to believe you were a gullible moron. I see this all the time from the Far left queer loving DemocRATs, so none of your ignorance is anything new. It must be awful to live with such a closed mind when news contrary to what you believe is everywhere today, even in your own backyards, and that conflict between what you believe and what you learn will only increase as this climate change HOAX is continually perpetuated over time. Good luck to you. And to your grandchildren who will face the brunt of the fuckups to come from the communist/socialist/Marxist loving dumbasses.

Yep. Ezzactly as I thought. Your Blind faith in this new religion is scary.

Maybe next time come up with your own opinion after actually researching the issue. Try harder please.

Executive summary
Coral data
• The most reliable long-term record of coral cover of a large area is
from the Great Barrier Reef. Its cover varies greatly from year to year,
but in 2022 was at the highest level since records began in 1985, and
double the level in 2011.
• Of the 3000 individual reefs of the Great Barrier Reef, none have
been lost, and all have excellent coral, although there are large fluc-
tuations in cover from year to year, mostly as a result of cyclones and
starfish predation.
• Data for other parts of the world is less reliable, and is only useful
for the last two decades.
• Aggregated over the whole world, the data does not support
the proposition that there has been a major drop in coral cover. At
worst, there might have been a reduction of 7% from 2000–19, but
the stated error margin is of similar size to the difference. In addition,
natural variability of the data is also around 10% – higher than the
difference between 2000 and 2019.
• Data for the East Asia Seas coral bioregion, with 30% of the world’s
coral reefs, and containing the particularly diverse ‘Coral Triangle’,
show no statistically significant net coral loss since records began.
• Outside Australia, there is a need to improve standardisation and
randomisation of data sets.

Climate change is the single biggest threat facing the Reef, and the world, with the possible exception of nuclear war.

Man made? Pay Al Gore and the UN taxes so they can save us. And don't forget the polar bears, they can't swim. Embrace the extra Chinese and Indian carbon emissions...it's loving.
It must be awful to live with the ever-present fear of impending doom. It is a good thing that you are smarter than everyone else in the room. You have got it figured out. There is plenty of room at several wacko liberal forums where smart folk like your self can discuss the end of days. Why don't you run along and get with your idiot friends. Good day.
If this crowd isn't worth your time, then PLEASE go the hell on somewhere else.

How many climate change sacraments have you made? Just curious as to how long you have worshiped at the communist climate change alter?

Just curious, but do you believe in “common sense” gun laws as well?

Now that we have the House, why don't they put an end to this climate change horseshit? Get some data in there and tell the left to suck it.

So Bill Gates of Hell, who’d you buy these offsetting credits from? How much did you pay? Was this the only BS you could come up with off the cuff?
