"Man Made Climate Change is Real"

translates to

"The world would be different, without humans."

Hard to disagree with that! But where do you go from there?

That's why I love President Trump's Administration's focus on Clean Air and Clean Water.

Yep, pollution and it's direct impact on health is way more important than propping up globalist extortion.

But those are problems for which actual solutions could be enacted, that's just not the communist way, man!

Most of the pollution in the world comes from China, Karen. Get your climate change propaganda put of here.

Sure, but we have our own sources of water, and what we do to the air locally has more effect than whatever China is doing. This has nothing to do with Climate Change, and everything to do with not wanting lead in water. I think you misunderstood what I was saying? Or do you not see a difference between pollution and "Climate Change"?

Yeah, pollution is real, and your climate change garbage is globalist propaganda meant to keep the sheeple controlled through fear.

Mt st. Hellens eruption produced more co2 than all of human kind. Now, we also have other volcano's currently active.. nothing adds up ever

Not crickets: Here's some actual data on your false claim.

Yearly CO2 emitters: Billion metric tons per year (Gt/y) Anthropogenic CO2 from fuel combustion 2015+ 32.3Gt/y Mount Pinatubo, 15 June 1991 0.05 Gt

In the Permian era it took continuous eruptions of the Siberian traps over a period of roughly 800,000 years AND massive algae blooms to produce enough greenhouse gas to change climate. This was a positive feedback loop caused by Milankovitch cycles.

Fake news alert! Your claim is clearly disproven

"There is no question that very large volcanic eruptions can inject significant amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens vented approximately 10 million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere in only 9 hours. However, it currently takes humanity only 2.5 hours to put out the same amount."

Answer: nuclear power.

Which, thankfully, Trump and some in Congress are supporting as well.

We have to get over the decades of fear mongering to finally get to that point. It also doesn't help when situations like Fukushima taint people even more to the point that they don't listen when you refute that with, "maybe we shouldn't build nuclear power plants in areas that have excessive tectonic activity AND are prone to tsunami's?"

To be fair to Japan, they are an island nation and don't have a lot of land area to potentially put a power plant on.

Then there's the USA.

Japan needed to build a type of nuclear plant that physically cannot meltdown if they were going to build one. (I.E. Molten Salt) They picked a type and location that was a collectively stupid decision from the very beginning.

It's like the people that intentionally built houses in areas of Louisiana that are below sea level. It doesn't matter if you think the levees won't fail, you just don't do something that is that ridiculously stupid like building residential areas below sea level in the first place. It doesn't matter if you think you won't have a problem building that type of reactor in that area, just don't do it.

Look at Permian era climate and what caused the series of extinctions. The ocean had to get up to 104 F, its currently nowhere close. Its worth noting that while Antarctica's west shelf is melting, its eastern portion is growing considerably.
