But its all irrelevant because the most effective way to keep warm is to continue with global warming. Soon we wont have a cold season to worry about. 😜

    Continue? You can't stop it even if you wanted to, unless you pervert the natural climate cycles somehow. We are exiting a cold period and it has nothing whatsoever to do with using gas or come farts.

    Oh fuck! Are you a climate change denier?! Are you joking, too? or do you still believe this is a natural change?

    The climate changes. There's no denying it. No it isn't caused by cow farts so everyone needs to? eat bugs instead, and no it isn't caused by driving your car so you must become a serf and be bound to your lords 15 minute plantation.

    Dont know what happened, but i can't see this comment thread anymore. Maybe it's been deleted.

    Whatever happened, you are absolutely full of shit.

    Maybe you should try listening to scientists instead of talking about cow farts. There is an insurmoutable amount of information and proof that the climate has warmed drastically in the last 20-100 years and it doesn't follow any recorded pattern of warming and cooling since the dawn of humanity ~200000 years ago.

    Heres a nice image showing the data in simple terms.

    You xan continue to dwny it all you want, but any rational person will ignore you.

    Incidentally, dont pay attention to mass media, i hear a claim i look at the facts and draw my own conclusions. You should do the same.
