Skiing's Future

But after the last 18 months, I see science has no chance against politicians and political talk show hosts that only seek to enrich themselves and increase their power.

I concur with this
But I'm not willing to give up hope
It will take time

it is because of human burning of fossil fuels the fires that may be set by humans are more powerful, as are tornadoes and hurricanes which of course the only human involvement is the gradual increase in temperatures and sea levels, The fact that almost all climate scientists agree that there is significant alteration in the climate by the burning of fossil fuels, the denial this is only political. It's funny but I also feel the effects of climate changes in my ability to ski in the East, this of course is selfish when compared to what is happening around the world, but hey if it convinces more skeptics to take actual action , good.

True and 2 years ago I may have agreed with you. But after the last 18 months, I see science has no chance against politicians and political talk show hosts that only seek to enrich themselves and increase their power.

Rome fell too, "If destruction be our lot, we ourselves must be its author and finisher, As a nation of free men, we will live forever, or die by suicide".

Maybe whatever comes next will be better?

Acid rain is still around. They just moved it from falling on the Adirondacks to other places in the world.

Yup.

It takes a long ass time for things to change, and it isn't all the doom and gloom some want us to think it is.

Actually, that’s really a blink of the eye in Earth time. This is a silly discussion. You can’t manufacture windmills without the oil industry. Currently you can’t even charge your EV without oil, gas or coal providing you the electricity. We are probably not living in the end times. If we are, it will more likely be a nuclear war that does us in, not our minivans. And even then, the Earth would recover eventually and go on without us.

Hopefully we set a good example as to how and get rid of it

Aren't most fires set off by humans?

Yes.

Truth
Meanwhile CA has outlawed generators ---- how they gonna charge their EV's when the juice runs out? LOL

Yeah, who really knows what’s going to happen.

I’m skiing and eating gummies all of this week and next week. That’s about as far as my brain cares to think about right now.
