Now post how much funding researchers get for studying climate change, and how much funding they would lose if they found climate change was a natural
occurrence.

... and how much they get if they admit money won't change the climate or other natural events. You can't pay a volcano to not erupt  !

Physics too!
All science is false, all studies faked in quest to get new research moneys!
The whole body of science in the past 50 years is a sham!
Woke!

Were you drinking your home brew when you came up with that false equivalency?
How many advances in cancer treatment have occurred? Govt. isn't stopping mother nature.

Your priorities are sad. You see conspiracies, along with David, in everything that you don't understand. Politics, climate, research.
One day when you two mature, you'll wonder why you created so much drama in your life.
Add Tom, Clark and the other far right paranoids here and you may qualify for a Happy Meal. Give it a try. Your kids will think old dad was
wrong on so many things. Why?
US Marines: providing enemies of America an opportunity to die for their country since 1775.
What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

The only conspiracy is that the lovers of BIG Government, high taxes, and a crippled economy, have with real science (which is observed facts from
real events). Science is NOT a study of predictions of something that hasn't happened. That is better done by gypsies with glass balls or politicians
with no balls.

I don’t “see conspiracies” the special prosecutor is indicting the people who were involved in them! Perhaps you should wait and see who ends up
on trial!
On water, if California hadn't shut down all their nuclear power plants they could build desalination plants to supply water. But now that’s not a
choice! But you can do something today to help. Move out of state! We did!

Only if they get the senior discount and it's on the dollar menu!! At McDonald's, they don't even have to leave a tip! Win-Win.
It seems a true blessing that so many bitter people move from California.

I guess theoretical physics is not science. Black holes were predicted long before we had the ability to observe them, as were the effects of
building an atomic bomb. I believe the Higg's boson as well, and the observations made by Edwin Hubble at our nearby Wilson Observatory, which
confirmed the expansion of the universe. Prediction is what science is all about, even predicting potentially dominant flu strains and determining
the characteristics of emerging/developing covid mutations.

No, not bitter just getting out before the bill comes due for 4 decades of mismanagement! “Bitter” describes those stuck there paying for services
that those in charge can't supply, Goat comes to mind!
There’s no water shortage, gas is about $3.60/Gal, propane is $2.00/gal, good NY steak is $7.00/Lb, the shelves are full in the stores and my
property taxes are $140/year.
What’s not to like about Baja?

What "services" were you deprived of while living in California? Were you deprived of water, electricity, fire or police services? Or, just bitter
about California growing browner? Do you think "those people" were grifting off you? We're the 6th largest economy in the world, that costs money
to maintain, good and bad come with that.
And, neighbor Goat pays taxes. What has he done? Is he a "taker?"
You need a Happy Meal! My treat. I can order online and you can pick it up!

As a business owner in Los Angeles.
Police don't respond to most property crimes not involving the use of a gun. When they respond at all it’s slow. At night there are often just 4
units to cover the SF valley!
The downtown streets are literally lined with people living on the sidewalks. Also using them for a bathroom!
Water is rationed, has been for years on and off. Streets are frequently flooded and the water is off because of breaks in 100+ year old pipes.
Trash is collected sometimes, the streets are full of potholes, the sidewalks are broken. In some areas the electricity is turned off when the wind
blows.
Stores are closing as a result of the no bail/under $900 in thefts are a walk policy!
Most of the problem makers are OTMs! I’ve worked in Mexico (legally) on and off for 40 years, with the locals. Hardly the conduct of a
“racist”! Now we live there! Also hardly “racist”!
California’s and LA’s taxes are among the highest in the US!

You just precisely described Tijuana (except for the tax thing). I live there.

OK, let's assume you and the Yale scientists are correct. Now explain WHY the drought started 1,000 years BEFORE the industrial age and what caused
the reason for climate change 1,200 years ago to suddenly end 200 years ago, and man's carbon footprint to take its place.

Copacetico1,
Mexico generally collects a 19% VAT and low property taxes. In California the sales tax is around 10%, the income tax is around 10% LA county collects
an inventory tax of a few percent, a payroll tax of a few percent and property tax of a few percent!
As you say sounds like TJ except for lots more taxes than TJ!
On the subject of water. The SouthWest US and Northern Mexico have been subject to droughts for thousands of years. Los Angeles was a desert until
recently. Since the 1920’s the equivalent of several large rivers have been diverted into LA and a thousand sq miles of that desert has been
watered.
The people who sold their water to LA have long since spent the money and want their water back. (The Owens Valley) Nevada and Arizona are filling up
with people (some from California!) and they want their share of water from the Colorado River which has less to divide because of long standing
weather cycles.
The politicians basically have dodged all the hard decisions and now there’s too many people living in a desert!

That is precisely what it is.
Newton's laws predicts when a released object WILL hit the ground and at what speed it will do so.
Science would be useless if it didn't predict.

NOAA has released a study regarding raising sea level . 2 feet by the end of the century.
Remember...science doesn't care what you believe.
