    I can't wait for Antarctica to melt. My property value will go up once it becomes ocean front.

    Let's go back a few years then....

    In 1972 the prediction was fomented "In 20 years all oil supplies would be exhausted"

    This prediction came from the Harvard board of Natural Scientists.

    Wow ... I guess "Science" got that one wrong.

    What about that massive ozone hole which miraculously fixed itself just 2 years after going the the massive expense of converting everything to non-cfc? Was there actually a ozone hole to begin with?

    Sea level rise....is Miami under water? How about New York?

    When taken in a rational evaluation - the lies peddled by climate nuts are exactly that - lies. And when they get caught in the lies - they just lie more.

    So what ever happened to acid rain? How about the New Ice Age? 90% of the world's trees are supposed to be dead now. And it goes on and on and on.

    I prefer to think the scientists are simply trying too hard. They are attempting to understand planetary climate which is insanely complex.

    It is irresponsible for them to play Chicken Little, but I won't go as far as them intentionally lying.

    good morning guys.
    What I know at this moment that after passing smog check the truck will get a sticker for 2 years. Any truck that enter California must have a sticker.

    It’s not new. They’re finally going to start testing and enforcing it.

    In 2 years... Maybe.

    Climate change isn't science, it's religion. And it's a big money maker for someone who is not myself.

    Sorry, I should’ve quoted who I was replying to. It was the poster right above me who referred to it as new smog bs. Personally I don’t care when they start enforcing it seeing as how I’ve been there exactly one time since 2014.
