The delusional Soros scheme - There are a whole lot of us
[ In Reply To ..]Working for nothing. Thousands in my town alone, have never seen a check for our protesting and education efforts. I hope May Day has a large impact too, but it will not be as friendly, I will bet.
When the oceans rise and eat up some of those vacation spots, will you notice then? Your Republican friends will have long moved on, made their money fleecing more ignorants (hopefully Republican Juniors) and will be drinking their wine, watching the waves crash in from their new vantage points.
What you don't "like" that scenario - The truth hurts
[ In Reply To ..]Not the moniker
Sunday morning NJA on other board - Perhaps they should call Soros?
[ In Reply To ..]Do you see any correlations between MT and the protests against the 1% willful ignorance of capitalistic destruction of our environment?
Here, I'll do it for you, just in case.
MT Has been destroyed. You are being taken advantage of, and have been. You are no longer needed. They found major corporations tk provide systems and programs to take your place...your environm ed nt, whether or not if your documentation was better, is no longer needed....and it doesn't matter if it might kill you or the result is harmful. The 1% can afford what they need to not be harmed too much.
You guys just kill me, no really, until I replaced my job with one that is truly allowed to participate in patient care...this was killing me.
Do you folks get money every time you - mention his name?
[ In Reply To ..]Or is it just hard to believe to you that so many people just object to what Trump is doing?
What is occupy democrats? Is this the offshoot of - occupy Wall Street?
[ In Reply To ..]Wow, must be serious...
I heard Al Gore and DiCaprio were there. Wonder how much jet fuel they used - I’m sure they didn’t fly commercial. Of course if they were really serious they would have walked or rode a 10 speed.
and there are probably companies working on - planes that use alternative
[ In Reply To ..]energy. As we always have to seem to remind you denier folks, it doesn't happen overnight but the quicker we get busy with it the sooner it will come. You are "sure they didn't fly commercial." Do you know them? You folks are certainly sure about a lot that you know nothing about.
Nothing like staging a protest for the sake of a political - and hypothesis and not real

For those who are so smart and knowing, why are - you doing a dying job like MT?

For some of us, it isn't dead yet. I made close to $50,000 in 2016 - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I do straight typing. When it is completely dead, I will stop doing this job.
So did I and so will I but I do know that the - protests are not staged
[ In Reply To ..]These are real people with real issues with this administration. I guess we can give this president a few records. The most protested president, the president who takes advantage of the position most and the one with the most suckers voting for him. He also holds the record for the lowest approval rating of any president.
Hahahaha, I guess that depends on which side of the fence you're on - I think Clinton, sm
[ In Reply To ..]has a great record for the taking advantage of his position (after all, what man wouldn't want some of those perks under the desk). I didn't vote for Clinton but felt those who did had to be the biggest suckers in the world. I didn't approve of him the first time you guys voted him in and certainly thought what a laugh the second. I was astounded when after all of his dealings under the desk, the people of the United States said sure, we'll vote for this lying dishonest guy and give him one more try. What a joke.
And that's what you're proud of? - anon
[ In Reply To ..]Not giving a sitting president a chance, especially considering he's only been in office 100 days. I wouldn't be proud of that, but that's just me.
And all of these protests aren't going to change anyone's mind. Climate change deniers will remain deniers, Trump supporters will remain supporters and all that will come of this is a lot of frustration, on both sides. It all makes me glad I'm a moderate who hasn't succumbed to the insanity of the left and the right.
Finally, a recipe to gather thousands of gullible people - in one place that is not the
[ In Reply To ..]Democratic National Convention.
No, that would be the gatherings where you - all worship Trump nm
[ In Reply To ..].
The board concensus shouldn't surprise me - It has always been in the minority
[ In Reply To ..]And willfully stubborn....like hanging onto MT jobs in the face of facts. The following explains some of the cause for your misguided notions...Media---FOX.
For example, 42 percent of Americans correctly believe that most scientists agree that global warming is happening. Only 22 percent, however, know that more than 80 percent of climate scientists agree on that basic fact. The rest of the survey respondents perceive more disagreement than actually exists.
Forty-seven percent of Americans say that if global warming is happening, it is caused mostly by human activities. This is the belief backed up by the scientific evidence; in the most recent report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in September 2013, scientists agreed that it is "extremely likely" that human emissions of greenhouse gases are causing the planet to warm. Thirty-seven percent of Americans reject this consensus, saying that climate change is most likely caused by natural fluctuations.
Shifting views
Media coverage surrounding the release of the IPCC report in September may be the explanation for the shift of more previously uncertain people into disbelieving climate change, Leiserowitz told LiveScience. While the report made a strong case for human-caused climate change, most media coverage focused on the question of whether there has been a "pause" in global warming.
In fact, some research does show a slowdown in how fast temperatures are rising, if not a pause. Scientists theorize the slowdown could be the result of decades-long climate cycles playing out against a background of long-term warming. But a study published online in November 2013 in the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society suggests that even that slowdown may be an illusion, caused by gaps in temperature data.
Nevertheless, the media framing of the story may have contributed to more doubt among those who were not firm in their convictions, Leiserowitz said.
"Media frames can be really important in shaping the way people interpret the news," he said.
Many of the other responses in the survey showed little movement from April to November 2013. The proportion of Americans worried about global warming did not shift significantly.
The findings divide Americans into six distinct subsets. Sixteen percent are "alarmed," sure global warming is happening and concerned about it. On the opposite end of the spectrum are the "dismissive," who comprise about 15 percent of the public and who almost all see global warming as a conspiracy theory or hoax. Changing either of these two groups' opinions about climate change is nearly impossible, Leiserowitz said.
The "doubtful," 12 percent of the public, are inclined to disbelieve climate change and may be difficult to convince, he said. Another 23 percent of the country is "cautious" — they believe climate change is happening, but are uncertain and tend to see the threat as distant.
The cautious are among the Americans most open to hearing the scientific evidence about climate change, Leiserowitz said. So are their neighbors, the disengaged, who make up about 5 percent of the public and who have given climate change little thought. These are the groups that tend to rely on their own personal experiences, such as their feelings about the weather, to make judgments about whether climate change is happening. Recent research suggests that people draw on current temperatures to make climate change judgments because that information is concrete and easily accessible.
I believe in climate change. But just suppose - you are right
[ In Reply To ..]does that mean you shouldn't keep our planet clean and strive for better ways? Do you think trashing it with oil spills and smog is a good thing? How about just taking care of the planet because we live here and it is full of beautiful wonder and its resources like water and air are what we need to survive.
For those who already know - Climate change is real

Preaching to the wrong people - anon
[ In Reply To ..]Climate change has been a fact long before the dawn of man. It is cyclical and will occur without humans populating the earth. All of this is scientific fact. It is also fact that humans have increased the rate of climate change and certainly global warming.
Climate change is a concern for me, however, even more concerning is overpopulation and, in my opinion, far more of a danger than climate change.
Dwindling resources has been hastened by overpopulation, not climate change. Where is the concern over this? *crickets*
Sure, we can all band together and do the responsible thing, although I bet many of us already have been recycling, using less water, carpooling, biking, etc. I know my family and I have. But are the common folk leaving carbon footprints large enough to contribute severely to global warming? Nope. That would be industry, the elite who fly around on their jumbo jets or heat those palatial homes, or corporations who rob third-world nations of their very basic resources only to turn around and shoot out poison into the atmosphere.
So, for people like me who work at home, walk instead of drive, recycle, conserve water, live modestly, well, we're already doing our part. Marching in the street isn't going to do anything, I'm sorry to say. Unless there's an economic benefit to combating climate change, not gonna happen. That's what this world turns on and as we've seen in MT, no amount of good intentions will topple greed.
