Not me. Not going to play the winter kool aid drinking games this year. If folks want to drive underpowered, wind up cars to prove how much they care about the climate good for them. More gas left for me. I spent years of my life and thousands of dollars learning how to read and interpret scientific pubs and data, and am convinced you can research and write one any way necessary to get your grant money or market your drug. The steering of research, and politicizing of it, is far more concerning to me than global warming. I'm not enough of a narcissist to think anything I do will have a lasting, disastrous impact, or a positive one, on a planet.

I always thought ole Al Gore was interpreting his graphs backwards.

Looked like warming was driving up CO2 not the other way around.

And besides, Super Dave rarely does much more than idle to a nearby bank where he fishes a 300 yard stretch for 8 hours at a time. I trailer close and go easy on the throttle using 6-10 gallons of gas a day. Dave uses ounces not gallons.

You wasted your time and money then, cuz you have interpreted very simple data incorrectly.  Also...there is nothing  to interpret anyway, do you have to interpret that water is wet? So what is there to interpret about CO2 absorbing IR light?  its not narcassistic at all....you as 1 person cant do jack...but 8 billion of us can.  When people believe a certain thing to be true, the resist all data, and cant look objectively.  Conservative voices have pounded in your brain that its all hogwash, cuz there is still lots of money to be made.  The same voices said cigarettes dont cause cancer.  They have not looked at data objectively cuz their livelyhood depends on carbon reserves.

It's pretty awesome that all these genius scientists hang out together on a fishing forum.

What other variables?  So CO2 doesnt absorb IR light (most of the suns energy is in the IR range)?  What else is causing such a radical increase in temperature?  What else is causing the decrease in pH in the oceans, and the build up of carbonic acid? This is the type of BS that drives me nuts...its good to be skeptical and question things...but have you submitted any papers to journals?  Can you elaborate on your findings?  Im really curious.  I worry that my son and the generation after him will hate us for our selfishness.  How can so many people continue to deny the obvious? 

U Mad Bro? 

Jesus, all i was saying is that maybe human produced CO2 isn't the only variable affecting global climate. 

Possible variables affecting global climate:

1. Sun

2. Natural CO2

3. Inflammatory comments from OAF posters?

4. Ned RIgs?

I knew you were the smartest guy in the room and thanks for showing  us all how using objectivity is wrong and we are only motivated by a big oil company making some money. I mean for christ sake Didn't our president  use Bill Nye to push the agenda recently???? I mean that guy is a really smart climatologist with no agenda like us gas guzzling knuckle dragging idiots.

Bro?  what are you wearing a super tight pink shirt?  Cmon man...Im an adult, not a weird trendy hipster guy.   Yes, though, I am mad.  People can and do blatantly lie about things they clearly dont understand.  Maybe its cuz im not old and nearing the end of my life, maybe its cuz i have a small son at home, and am worried about his future, idk, but i just wish that people would look and see the obvious...but, as was mentioned its highly politicized...so it doesnt matter what the actual experts have to say anymore, cuz clearly ted cruz and hillary knows better.  Would you tell a fishing guide a better spot to go?  Or would you tell your DR what tests to run?
