yhprum1720I saw a poster for a bus trip to this at my school in Philly. My first thought was that all of the gas burned to transport people from all over the country to this march will do more damage to the environment than the march will be able to offset.
BombogenesisAlthough I am all about attending events organized by trust fund kids who want to feel important, I unfortunately can't make it.

DERS.holy shit so many ignorant fucks im not even gonna try this time... but to anyone who doesn't think it is the the most important issue humanity has ever faced, you are brainwashed.
but good for you OP. unfortunately to see any real changes it would have to be a protest bigger than anything before, and across the whole globe.
theabortionatorI'm going to run my generator 1 hour for every post in here. The noise generated will help raise awareness. Everyone join me. IF you don't have one idling a big truck will work.
Let's save the world!
El_Barto.and still it woulnt accomplish anything. What the fuck is a big group of people walking together gonna do? Nothing, youre wrong and stupid and Argentina sucks
El_Barto.Im leaving my freezer door open and my bathroom sink is dripping.
Snowtorious_BIGYou're so funny man. I hope I can be like you one day. You're jokes are original and it's super cool to act like you don't give a shit about the biggest problem facing the earth. Maybe the march won't do anything, thats not the fucking point. The point is that some shit needs to start happening and people need to start doing SOMETHING instead of acting too cool to care.
MikeVicksTOPDOGLol you guys are kinda funny not gonna lie. But the point is that its going to be the biggest protest of all time, they're expecting to have over 100,000 participants and apparently the UN is having a meeting with all of its leaders in New York City that day so this is supposed to spark some kind of change. Also a lot of people are taking initiative to lower their Co2 emissions by taking buses and using other forms of mass transit to get to the city. I know a lot of you are just trolling but we cant really deny the fact that the human race has put quite an effect on the earth. Yeah i'm in favor of making this world a better place but i guess that qualifies me to be a hippy. I mean just think about what the world would be like today if it weren't for the few people that were concerned about our environment in the past.
NickyTooranyone who thinks climate change is a myth is either a fucking retard or religious quack. The vast majority of science supports it and 97% of scientists think it's real. Denying it won't make it not real.
DERS.but to anyone who doesn't think it is the the most important issue humanity has ever faced, you are brainwashed.
Snowtorious_BIGMaybe the march won't do anything, thats not the fucking point.
BumblesteezeWhat does religion have to do with climate change?
KZAWhat does that accomplish? It's not like it raises awareness or shows politicians and others how much support there is for it.

WattsIf it was a "legalize bestiality" rally or something, I'd agree with you, but everyone already knows about climate change, including politicians. I would be shocked if there was a single member of congress or the senate who has never heard of climate change before. A hundred thousand people sounds like a lot, but when you consider that 300,000,000 + live in the united states, it no longer seems that big. And, apart from that, I'm sure members of congress already have the data on the percentage of their constituents who support climate change.
KreechJust came from the march it was pretty tight, there were a fuckton of people in the streets, and I marched next to Jane Goodall and Al Gore for a sec
KZAAnd yet, not shit is getting done about it. That is cool that it is on peoples radar or they know about it, the point of this is to get them to do something about that shit. Considering half of congress has more faith in a god damn book than actual science, I don't trust them to get anything done.
DarthVaderStop trolling.

BombogenesisSure, the pictures of the Polar bears stuck on a piece of ice are cute but not convincing.

What about how climate scientists have been caught fudging numbers lately?? IPCC scientists of all people!!
What about the urban heat island effect, and how are ASOS sites used for data recording are often in places surrounded by Tarmac, concrete etc? Look at a city on a summer evening compared to a rural area just a few miles away. The temperature will be 5 or so degrees different from the temperature nearer to the paved surfaces where we put our freaking thermometers. It's ridiculous.
Sure, the earth is warming. As a person with a degree in earth science and a focus in atmospheric science I have to be objective and try to look past a lot of the BS.
hey-dude-its-meIdk why youve started posting so much lately but I never realized how dumb you are, you're seriously on the wrong side of every argument and genuinely seem mad/unhappy all the time
AT-ATLets all travel to the city to march against climate change....because travel isn't like the number one cause of co2 emissions or anything.
I am all for stopping our impact on this world, but holy hell. Everyone seems to be looking for someone else to do something about it.
oh government, oh almighty UN give me the strength to help stop this march of mankind. Do something to end my consumption of fossil fuels.
People hate oil companies, but they fill up their cars everyday. Yell at big coal, but still turn on the lights, use their phones and laptops. Complain that monsanto sucks balls, but still buy their crops.
I am just as guilty as the next, but I do not yell at others for doing the same. If you want to make change, do it yourself. We all need to, every last one, if we want anything to change.
inb4 i get shit on.
