The General Degredation of Society

I don't much care to read all of the posts pointing out how wrong and wacky the platform of the OP is, but Reach said something that I want to comment on:

lmao did you really need to say "anthropogenic" when you could just as easily have used a word any one could understand

That said, I've seen charts around on the Internet that indicate that while the average temperature has risen in recent years, this rise correlates with solar activity or something like that and has no correlation on the advancement of industrialization or the technological age.

Basically, I don't believe that it's our fault that the climate is changing, and furthermore, I expect that it's not a problem and merely manifestation of the planet's natural cycle. The issue has merely been sensationalized to an absurd degree, so much so that even if it is entirely anthropogenic, it's still nowhere near as bad as people think. People liken a rather minor shift in temperatures to an enormous emergency, a global catastrophe, when it's nothing of the sort. If it is man-made, then yes, something should be done about it in time, but that time is certainly not urgent. This bull**** green movement is just propaganda that doesn't mean anything. This isn't a ****ing ice age we're talking about here. You know, they're selling movies with "green" keepcases now. You know, the plastic case that a DVD comes in. They just cut out a large portion of the plastic, making the box fragile (and less costly to produce) and claim they're doing it to be green. Or that it's better for the environment. How about bottled water? They sell bottled water in "green" bottles now, but it's the same thing. They make the production cheaper, producing a cheaper product, but charge the same price and pocket the difference. It's just a means to an end for higher profits, you're not helping the environment by buying into this ****.

Sorry, I seem to have fallen into a rant there at the end. Points to take away from this post: using esoteric words when simple words work fine is silly, the shift in the climate is minor and easily not even man-made, people have bought into bull**** as a result of the over-sensationalization of what is at best a part of the natural cycle of the planet and at worst a minor problem that likely won't truly heavily impact any of us in our lifetimes.
