All I have to do is look at my solar production and energy consumption from one year to the next. Even with an extra person in the house (leaving the fuckin' lights on all the time, grrr), I'm using less electricity than last year, producing just a little less. That means it's cooler, more clouds, more rain. States that have been in a self-declared drought for years are lifting that.
It's cooler and you don't need satellites to see it.

The same bunch of lying assholes that claim sea levels rose by a couple of feet in the last 100 years ignore the actual measurement of 1/2 inch in the past 70 years. Yeah. It's up, a tiny bit. Stop lying on the fucking news and PBS nature shows. Temperatures are slightly warmer than they were 100 years ago. Slightly. Maybe it's just because the sun is putting out more radiation. In any case, we're reducing CO2 output by switching to solar and wind, wherever feasible Yet, these libtard alarmist fuckers keep on lying about it all, and pushing to tax everyone that lives. They're fucking insane. They forgot how in 1969 the big scare they foisted on us was the upcoming ice ago, that never happened. Sheeit.

Don't forget the hole in the ozone layer. That was before the Internet, so they were able to put that one over on us without a murmur. In retrospect, we can look back and see that much of what they said about the hole in the ozone layer was nonsense.

The ozone hole damage was a temporary real thing that quickly cleared up when specific chlorine radicals, were no longer emitted. Ozone forms in the upper atmosphere when solar radiation hits oxygen. O2 becomes O3, which blocks intense UV radiation. The ozone hole issue is nothing like what the climate alarmists scream about today.

There basically is no global warming. The Earth has been gradually warming since coming out of the last ice age. That rate of warming has not accelerated, and it has nothing to do with human activity. And higher carbon dioxide levels in the air are doing immense good, and no harm at all.
