1. Once again, to prove it’s CAGW you have to exclude all other explanations. Alarmists and activists jump to their preferred conclusion every time. How is this scientific?
   Sometimes I’d like to see CAGW and social justice taken to its logical conclusion. First discourage all coastal developments. Ironically, the demographic most affected are the biggest alarmists – rich, white progressives living in or having a cottage on the coast. Simple solution : the US should no longer allow private or government subsidized insurance for coastal property. Be nice and give them a reasonable phase in (out?) period. Ban all new housing and renovation permits. By the time the oceans rises enough to be a problem coastal homes would be strictly a buy at your own risk purchase
   Then hit the rich and self righteous even harder. In order to reduce unnecessary emissions and reduce inequality there should be huge CO2 taxes on luxury items like yachts, private airplanes, mansions and those with three or more homes. Start at a million per year per luxury item. They can afford it and it’s their patriotic duty to prevent CAGW. Why should the average joe bear an unfair share of the burden?

2. Simple, you eliminate the competition by any means available. Kill them outright like lions and tigers do, or any other animal group, or defeat them by your strength, so they scurry away.
   Also boxing with a drunk senate member or doing push ups to wow the females might get you both laid.. Nothing new here.
   Throw in free money paid to the chief and guess what! Nobody has to work.
   Just the suckers.

3. MORE Federal tax-$$$$ DUMPED into the Mississippi Delta to hold back the waters ?? Hold back the waters of settlements below the waterline ? More $$$$$ to be pocketed by corrupt leaders instead of … oh … I don’t know … used to FIX THE LEVEES ???!!!! as intended !
   Or have we forgotten the REAL reason the 9th ward was flooded ? It wasn’t because of GW Bush … or Katrina … or “Brownie” or anything other than misappropriation of tax dollars budgeted to maintain and repair the levees. Nope. The hurricane damage was really the damage of GREED … and lack of appropriate oversight

4. I have often said that I will “believe” in CAGW sea level rise … as soon as I see all the Hollywooden elites selling their multi-million dollar Malibu beachfront homes for pennies on the dollar. THEN … I will believe in catastrophic, sudden, apocalyptic, “sea level rise”.
   There was a city council here in the SF Bay Area who actually voted on a measure to put a moratorium on ALL building permits within their low-lying Bayfront city … can’t remember whether it was San Leandro, or Alameda … ? But they actually voted to STOP all building because the SF Bay was going to FLOOD their low-lying community on Al Gore’s schedule. Remember the “Blue Line” that got painted along Al Gore’s “scientific” elevation of sea level rise in Santa Barbara. All due to CAGW’s Inconvenient Truth. This has all been laughed out of existence now. Just a remnant of LOOPY leftist fantasy-thinking.
   For a group that purports to be “outdoorsy” and be “more in touch with the environment” than all you fat, white, republican males … they sure don’t know SQUAT about the REAL environment.

5. The idle rich and young aristocracts have always been a pain in the arse of the productive class. Once you reach a certain level of wealth, especially inherited wealth, you no don’t have to acknowledge reality. Reality is whatever you want to to be. It’s the ultimate Peter Pan existence.

6. “Getting back to the subject, how is it that the Amerindians of the Pleistocene were able to adapt to somewhat more severe climate change without government assistance?”
   They “adapted” through the arcane mechanism of losing the vast majority of their population to adverse conditions.
   What remained were the spectacularly lucky and the particularly tenacious.(not exclusive sub-groups)

7. So I guess that because your ancestors were a member of some tribe who dragged their belongings around on two sticks and had never heard of something called a wheel you now have a special place in todays society. Why are you somehow entitled to a government paycheck every month, you personally in most cases have never done anything that contributes to the society you live in. I would like to know where this “First Nations” concept came about and who was the idiot that authorized it.

8. “First Nations”‘ came into common usage in the 1980s to replace the term “Indian band”.[16] Elder Sol Sanderson says that he coined the term in the early 1980s.[17] Others state that the term came into common usage in the 1970s to avoid using the word “Indian,” which some Canadians considered offensive. Apparently, no legal definition of the term exists. Some aboriginal peoples in Canada have also adopted the term “First Nation” to replace the word “band” in the name of their community.[18]
