Ok,
I beleive in climate issues, CHANGE and man made ones. It is NOT as Peterson makes out anti capitalist. Green power costs LESS than coal or carbon fired stuff. LESS .... creates MORE jobs.
Peterson in the above videos, his own words, is dismissive of ocean acidification ... when the ocean acid level has risen 30% in 34 years to be exact. He is sceptical and dismissive of temprature change, again his words and he puts it DOWN to normal changes. His go to source is a political sceintist. I read his bio, his CV and even his own Wikipedia page and find NO evidence anywhere of any work in the field, yet he somehow claims whilst being a full time professor of Psychology for 20 years, running a full time [practice till 2017 seeing 20 patients a week, whilst teaching as well some KNOWLEDGE or work in the field including a 2 year period at the UN ? I cant seem to find any ... of this.
When, like Trump, who dismisses it all, and Trump claims MORE ice and you see the NASA last 20 years of Arctic ice coupled with a bloody Canadian ice breaker during summer sailing at 13 knots, full steam basically in very thin ice to the NORTH POLE during summer in 2018, its NOT a debate about something being wrong.
It is NOT a choice, one or the other, green energy can compete with carbon emitting things. Suggesting they DON'T work is idiotic ... as this ******** Peterson does. ONE gas fired plant and a mix of solar and wind and other forms, and he is suggesting, with some claim to any expertise in the area, that if solar and wind which cover 80% of the needs all the time in the EU region, they are NOT changing how much CO2 emitting power is used when the plant that emits CO2 is turned off until needed is a Koch Brothers line.
It is clear, Peterson, has some delusion as to his own conclusions. Maybe seeing mentally ill people for so long he has got paranoid delusions. Maybe he had them all along !! Quite clearly, in his own words, he claims some political science person as his go to guy .... he claims NOT to be a climate denier, but despite this dismissive of any and all scientific FACTS.
On the temperature change side, their are 19 global totally independent bodies who are measuring this event. ALL come out with similar if not identical findings. ALL OF them. We are talking about satellites that since 1980 have measured the temperature every 30 mins in 500,000 locations around the globe and show beyond even a reasonable doubt things are changing. That an icebreaker can sail to the North pole, an absurd thing to say in 1960, yet in 2018 a reality, makes this CLOWN and he is a clown, a delusional clown .... who CLAIMS some experience in the field, yet clearly is lying, delusional and pathological.
Ice cores, if this guy has read anything, Ice cores go back around a million years, so we KNOW what the CO2 level was and CH4 level over that period. Fossils and other records again make the levels without doubt, NO doubt whatsoever to have been 240-260 PPM CO2 for MILLIONS of years. MILLIONS ... here today up at 410 plus, the last time it took 200,000 years to get from 250 to 2,000 and temperatures to eventually rise by 8 degrees ... we already are at 1 degree, trying to stop it at 1.5 or 2, which is absurd due to efforts of Koch Brothers, fossil fuel interests and idiots like Peterson .... so its 4 which leads to cascading effects LIKE the frozen permafrost being heated, and thawing and rotting and emitting 1.8 trillion tons or so of crap, and hey presto ... we are at 1,500 PPM ...
Peterson, disturbed me for his views PRIOR to having a really close look. Now, having looked, I suspect he is some form of delusion and god complex if not NPD mixed into the crap that he spews out. That I would not stand a chance against him ina debate is a forgone conclusion. Much like TRUMP and he clearly is NPD, dealing with pathological liars and sociopaths they switch from attack to I love you, to I hate you and dismiss you, then want to marry you and in the process of being gaslight to death, the whole context is lost.
Is the world warming, unnaturally ? Is the CO2 level outside its range for 60 million years ? Is the ICE that has been there for the same period GONE or going ?. Is the OCEAN becoming more acidic and likely not to be able to sustain life as we know it within 100 years ? I am NOT anti capitalist, as I said green energy is CHEAPER ... provides MORE JOBS and its not a choice between one or the other, its a matter of simply stop giving breaks and subsidies for carbon emitting crap. As to averting what is about to occur.
The Coal reefs are dead, Nothing can be done. Most life in the ocean is likely forfeit at this stage. Temperature rise is likely well above 4 degrees which is diabolical by 2100 and more likely in the 6 plus if not 8 region and the biggest rises Arctic followed by Antarctic with rises above the 10 degree level as the landscape goes from being reflective white, to brown.
What humanity does, or does NOT do, debates, even the UN highly politicized paper gave 2030 as a stop CO2 or else, not reduce, BUT stop it all .... ignored. As such, crop failures and global ones a norm post 2050 and mass starvation events the NORM ... on and on it goes. All I might add backed by PEOPLE who actually, ACTUALLY work with and for the UN on this climate issue, and MR Peterson ... will be long gone by then. When 50,000 scientists, NOT some political scientist or a shrink as Peterson is .. but climatologists, volcanologists, geologists and ones in the field, even my types MATHS geeks and predicative AI model builders and even demographers and at times even economists have places in this discussion. BUT despite 50 odd fields, there is NO PLACE .... NONE for a political science person or a psychologist to have any input to any issue on climate change. NONE ....
Neither has any valid input of any value to the topic. Whilst YES maybe as an observer of it, and it impacts, but Peterson claiming his views are based upon someone who has NO VALID qualifications is TRUMP and his delusions all over again. DRIVEL quoting drivel for drivel and FOX news actually dictating policy via remote as Trump sits glued to the FOX drivel between golf games and stuffing his face.
If someone cannot even rationally accept the FIRST issue of temperature change, its pointless to go on. Peterson clearly CANT and in fact denies hard empirical, unquestionable scientifically verified findings in not just one area, temperature, but in fact is dismissive in all of them. ALL of them, CO2 is good .... he actually said that ... it is .. till it comes back down dissolves the carbon in the shells and corals and then the chemical reaction causes acid oceans.
Debating such a god like .... brilliant mind .. never ever to be wrong, effortlessly switching between push and pull and love and hate, all hallmarks of the pathological mind, Peterson is a dangerous fish and he doesn't care, of course he doesn't, no compassion or empathy are hallmarks of his sociopath type.
Trump merely lies or has a hunch its all not true on climate issues, this person, far more dangerous, because much like God emperor Trump, Peterson seems to invest facts, invent work histories that CANNOT be true in an unbroken CV and 20 years of treating people clinically till 2017, he worked for the UN ? OOH did I miss something ... why would a shrink be working on climate change ? When, in his spare time ? Treating 20 [patients a week till 2018 whilst being a full time professor ? Oh please.
This guy, slimy as they come. I doubt anyone could pin him down .... ever ... as a fraud. He clearly however is on this topic and his claims, OOOH I am not anti climate change ... but immediately dismisses it all ... NO NO I know better than the ICE ... or 3,000 climatologists in 19 global organizations ... NO we are NOT getting warmer ....
