Why should they write about it - place an emphasis on sea ice - in their summary for policy makers if the summary was meant to give guidance on policy to address environmental issues? They may not have included any advice about ice-cream as well - due to a lack of relevance? Your Dhamma friends are interested in your views regarding environmental issues.
I am assuming that you are also saying that the climate change issue is politicised by this same climate science community - and whoever else is involved in turning it into a political football?
Is there a reason why climate change and ecological destruction should not be political issues? In order to get affirmative action on an international scale there has to be negotiations and coordinated efforts between different political entities.
There are different political stances on climate change! President Donald Trump has announced the United States is withdrawing from the âParis Agreementâ on climate change - as soon as they can. Does this manoeuvre have anything to do with politics? What do you think about this decision?
You complained about ad hominem attacks and then implied that one of your questioners is a troll and I canât remember what my personal issues may be? I hope we havenât ruffled your feathers?
I pointed out some basic facts about the already existing impact of rising sea level - in Bangladesh and low-lying Pacific islands - regardless of where the extra water is coming from! I have asked you to write about the real âenvironmental crisisâ that actually exists! So far, you have told us that it has nothing to do with sea ice - thatâs nice to know. You seem to know a lot about sea ice - what about (real) environmental issues on a global scale?
Could you please share with us what you know about human-induced climate change and whether it endangers us- our welfare and well-being? Does it also pose a serious threat to the welfare of the myriad forms of life that exist within the biosphere? Could it give rise to a run-away effect that could lead to global ecological collapse? If it is a dangerous situation then what kind of policy initiatives might be effective in addressing this important issue? Try to concentrate on answering these questions directly.
