Psssst, he is also wrong on maintaining solar and wind is cheaper... the amount of birds they kill once installed is very messy and that isn't event counting the maintenance of the systems. Hey, did he ever find that story about Norway giving up their oil production? Climate change harms overall bird populations way more than wind turbines do. In fact, North America has already lost over 3 billion birds in the last 50 years from the effects of climate change. Read for yourself: www.npr.org/2019/09/19/762090471/north-america-has-lost-3-billion-birds-scientists-sayWind turbines only effect bird (and bat) populations at a local level. Global warming effects everything everywhere on Earth. Therefore green energy really is a worthwhile investment for the planet in the long run. US source

US source I would think that an patriotic american like you would prefer american news sources. But now I'm remembering that you Trump voters mostly stick to far-right news articles and blogs from "journalists" like Alex Jones.

Nah, just calling you out on your bullshit Melee about US sources not being reliable.
You're welcome.

There's always a real lesson to be learned.

I don't remember saying that. If I did say something like that, it must've been many years ago.

Well you could just post pics of the Ganges River and what they put in it to prove Skippy wrong, again. Yup. This grease monk is privileged enough to live in a country where he can afford to be environmentally conscious. Regular people in India, China, the Middle East etc. don't give a fuck about the environment. Many of these people shit, wash their clothes and themselves all in the same river. I don't blame them though since there isn't a lot they can do about it since the infrastructure isn't there for them to do it any other way, but telling me they care more about the environment is a blatant lie. I've lived in Qatar for about a year and people just throw shit in the desert without a second thought. We always brought back our garbage, but a lot of people from other countries hadn't even heard about recycling. The richer a country is, the cleaner energy and better recycling system will it have (in general, there are exceptions of course). I just want to point out that Qatar isn't a third world country. It's an extremely oil-rich first world country. It's actually very similar to the USA in some regards, such as lax taxation rates for example.

Qatar isn't a third world country, but this shows just how little you know about the country, because the majority of the population are people from third world countries. The natives are the minority. People come from Africa, Nepal, India and many other countries to work there and they are the majority.

Because unlike what Balder claims, it was NOT recently when I said something like that. The only time I remember making an argument like that was in a debate with Dan E. Kool in some political thread shortly after Trump was elected, so 2016-2017. That wasn't exactly yesterday, hence "many years ago", you bungholes. Nice try, though.

Just between you and me, Balder, I think Skippy might have a issues.

Yeah no shit. I bet he's a blast to have at parties. Nothing's better than listening to environmental talk and getting guilted for drinking during a party where you're trying to relax. How many parties have you been to, you grease monk?
