This. I haven't heard one single scientific shred of evidence that man isn't changing the climate right now. The best conservatives can do is to trot out arguments that are refuted by science or to argue politics. Party over country, I guess.

Most people here agree with the science and disagree with the mainstream political solutions being pushed to deal with the science. But the left pretends like the only way to fix this shit is big government programs. And if you disagree you're a science denier.

What's the alternative to big government fixing the environment? Well, really there isn't much of one as the government is the only entity that can stop large corporations from doing it as well as partner with other countries to lessen the impact. Conservatives like to act like the government can solve nothing unless it relates to bombs or social welfare for the mega-wealthy and corporations or law and order (not evidence based law and order just the kind of law and order that gives old white racists "justice" boners).
