I think that all those "experts" that watch Fox news all the time should stay silent on climate change. You make us pilots look like idiots. Climate should not be a political issue!

The same can be said of all those “experts” that watch CNN/MSNBC.

Wasn’t somebody threatening to close this thread due to politics? Let’s get that ball rolling, shall we?

You should actually read it before posting as there is nothing that shows an "existential threat to the human race". Other than the normal cycles of the earth. I wonder if we were around 30,000 years ago when sea levels were over a 100 feet lower than they are today if we would have tried to stop the sea levels from rising back then too.
Also answer my question on the hypocritical nature of all those pushing this "world ending event" all the while demanding large increases in taxes yet cruise around emitting carbon at a rate that would make most volcanoes blush.
You would think if they were serious about what they say they would at least practice what they are preaching.

In a last-ditch effort to save the thread, we have deleted the most blatantly partisan posts (and those which quoted them). The effect of trade wars on airlines is an important subject, so please discuss it without bashing any political parties or making personal remarks about politicians or candidates. Thank you.

I find it amusing that you think the people on fox make pilots look like idiots when the savior on the left who gave us the green new deal wants to eliminate flying while costing tax payers over 50 TRILLION DOLLARS.
Then there is the cap and trade with carbon taxes which will add billions of dollars in taxes to our industry which will certainly put a much larger damper on it than any Tariff.
Pilots supporting this make pilots look like idiots.
The fact is anyone that doesn't at least question the validity of what the consensus these scientists have come up with is either an imbecile or ideologically blind. Given the fact that they have had to change the name of their science at least 3 times because it wasn't working out for them. From Global cooling which didn't pan out then it became global warming but with stable global temperatures over the last two decades that didn't pan out so now it is just a catch all of climate change which has been happening since the beginning of the earth.
With every one of their long term models being wrong and with their forecasts being widely inaccurate other wise we would all be underwater or frozen in ice depending on what time period you wanted to chose from.
If everyone believed what the consensus of scientists believed without question we would still think the earth is flat, smoking is not harmful, the universe isn't expanding, Mars has canals, blacks were inferior based on scientific racism. All of these were "scientific consensus" until they were proven wrong.
Then just google climate gate and you can see in their own emails what they think. Here is a little piece of one by Forbes: "Three themes are emerging from the newly released emails: (1) prominent scientists central to the global warming debate are taking measures to conceal rather than disseminate underlying data and discussions; (2) these scientists view global warming as a political “cause” rather than a balanced scientific inquiry and (3) many of these scientists frankly admit to each other that much of the science is weak and dependent on deliberate manipulation of facts and data."
Please question everything especially when they are trying to reach into your wallet all the while having far larger carbon footprints than the average American.

It is orange man bad syndrome.
It will never make logical sense.
