Climate change is now exponential because of feedback loops. We do not have 20 years or even 10 years and the people who are telling us we have time to turn it around are delusional.

Glaciers are overrated. All they do is make icebergs, and we know how many people that kills each year.

Oh dear more emotional garbage. Glaciers were growing in the 70’s, retreating around the 30/40’s. They respond to the earth temperature which is cyclical. Up and down, up and down as it has been for thousands of years. So this guy is paid by organisations that want the narrative to be future doom – unless we destroy our economies by getting rid of fossil fuels.
Listen up……!!! Regardless of what we do, the earth will warm and cool for the next million years. But this guy and his pals will have made a lot of cash by scaring us and trashing our industry. LOOK AT THE FACTS. View Tony Heller on You Tube and NEW Tube. Stop being duped. The world currently is getting cooler – look up the FACTS for yourself. By the way, last winter most glaciers were GROWING. Honest! And finally…the population of Polar Bears is growing to record levels. No more fake news.
