I don’t believe anything that so called climate experts say about the environment. In my lifetime the threat of climate cooling was a threat, later global warming. Now climate change is all the rage. It’s usually about money or control. 

 

Maybe farmers are more your speed. They're basically saying the same thing about climate change but focus more on the immediate effects, along with the financial companies that insure the crops.

 

I can tell you're a headline reader and don't go much beyond that. The 70's "ice age" theory wasn't a consensus, but it was studied as a possible model at a time when data was still being collected on warming models.

That makes sense because they DO have at least the executive and congressional leadership under control. So far majority of Supreme Court too. 
Thanks for clarifying.

Exxon had internal studies that confirmed warming in early 70’s but sat on it. Now 36% of us don’t care.

There isn’t much we can do about climate change. Yes the climate changes. I don’t disagree with that. Pollution we can fix that. And have. Changing the climate, ridiculous. Headline reader, please. 🤣🤣🤣.

We can fix pollution (and apparently already have?), but we can't slow the man-made contribution to warming? Hint: Pollution is one of the causes of climate change.

 

I'll bet when Texas sees freezing temperatures there are a lot of guys walking around saying "gee, I guess global warming isn't real!" 🥴

Climate change is what it is. It's part of living on this land and has happened since the dawn of time. It goes from cold to hot. 

 

Cows farting or polution have zero to do with anything but air quality.  

 

Anyone who lives in the DFW can tell you, during the lock down the sky's were clear AF! Lmao 🤣

It’s fun watching the gullible buy into the nonsense. Time and time again they shift the narrative to suit their agenda. Mostly for money. Remember Al Gore. He made millions off his Global Warming nonsense. Wasn’t New York supposed to be under water by now. I remember driving to work in the seventies. It was the coming ice age. It was everywhere. Then it changed. That was the beginning of my questioning so called experts. And it’s my opinion. Just like everyone else’s.

Yes, this is true. You understand the climate changes throughout time because scientists and researchers told you so. And you can find evidence that shows you how the landscape has changed over time where ice once was. But when the same scientists show you the alarming rate of change in the past couple hundred years, change that outpaces previous change and looks very different, you think it's a lie.

 

Furthermore, people who don't believe in man-made climate change because of political and financial motivations simultaneously ignore the effort to bury, discredit, hide, and alter the findings. Take notice of large oil companies quietly diversifying and investing in cleaner energy. If you believe money ultimately leads to the truth, then, why are the deniers ignoring this?

 

The gullible swallowed the 70's ice age theory hook, line, and sinker, pole. Nobody would have cared except the media reported it, and the gullible are still talking about it 40 years later because they assumed it was fact and now use it to discredit real data on warming models. It's ridiculous how people say they don't believe the media, and then use regurgitated fact (from the media) to refute new data. 

 

You are also correct about the huge impact just a few weeks of widespread habit changes cleaned the air. Lockdowns aren't the answer to pollution, but Covid offered a rare glimpse of what a cleaner energy future could look like for air quality. So we agree that man definitely has a controllable interest in our own air quality.

 

Should we talk about water next?

I like this,  give me a few to reply as I'm out and about.

If people only knew the lies told.

Some times you have to make it make sense.

No, don't believe what scientists state as their "research" is funded from the same group that pushes the narrative.  It gets deep. Won't go there for the sake of this thread. Keeping it simple enough...

I agree humans destroy this land and water. The change in its condition will happen the more it is colonized, the more time passes and the way it's creator wants it to. Nothing stays the same forever.

Yes, I personally ignore anything they say. Again why should I pay any attention to facts biased toward a narrative?

If you truly understood that companies and people with more money and less moral then you run the show...

Now make this make sense. Our country has oil, yet we buy elswhere. This land has no shortage of anything. Except humble people.

The government is full of folks with their hands in oil and oil companies have the governments hands in thier pockets. This is fact.

 

So yeah pay attention to an oil company secretly turning green. I mean didnt the gov want to go green? Its just not going to work.

Make it make sense k. Think, if the gov cared about going green... they would of converted to water power along time ago. Fact is there's ZERO money to be made in that respect. 

 

Let's see how the young black man who is turning plastic into petro succeeds in changing the world. That's the ultimate go green project for EVERY government. Issue is there's no money to be made then either as we would just use recycled plastic..

 

Having a non biased outlook on life will really help see through man's bull.

 

Water💧, let's go... 👋

Let me know when you get there.

 

Perhaps a more realistic goal is to recognize bias and how bias hardens opinions.

Sorry no bias here.  Maybe if I was not speaking facts.  I get it though.  Have a great one.

Enjoy the weekend.

Everyone has bias, and that's a fact.

    • 87 down as low as $5.14 here... winning!
    • Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
