Tomato Outbreak "caused by climate change"
| Quote From Source: | The tomato scare that has sickened 170 people and is the worst food scare since the E. coli/spinach outbreak is being blamed by some environmental activists on climate change and the need for more food grown with the help of genetically modified organisms (GMOs).

Lets see, Blame it on "Climate Change" (known as Global Warming until the earth started cooling off), AND GM foods.
The greens are ridiculous. Rather than back anything up with science, they create scare stories and try and tie everything bad that happens to everything on their agenda. Eating Animals causes this and that. Global Warming causes this and that. Etc, etc, etc.
There's no accountability in the green movement, and if you call BS, they say you're against the earth against the evironment, hate animals, love big oil and the GOP, etc, etc, etc. There's nothing wrong with protecting species and natural environments, but whatever, but these people don't seem to actually care about that stuff. They care about $$$, and promoting their political agendas. They get stupid ultra-liberal types to believe everything they say (much like right wing movements do w/ ultra-rightwingers).
I'll quit ranting now, but these morons piss me off. |

I think some GM foods COULD be safe, but we need a hell of a lot more research before I'd feel comfortable. Also, I rreeaallllyy don't trust corporate america on issues like that. Sure they'd call something safe ... |

Every major weather disaster is Climate Change. Oh and PETA likes to tie all of it to eating Animals, because THAT causes global warming. What's worse is people buy their crap. |

Oh wait, this one's rich.
Global warming causing increased earthquake activity.
| Quote From Source: | (AP) New research compiled by Australian scientist Dr. Tom Chalko shows that global seismic activity on Earth is now five times more energetic than it was just 20 years ago.
The research proves that destructive ability of earthquakes on Earth increases alarmingly fast and that this trend is set to continue, unless the problem of "global warming" is comprehensively and urgently addressed.

I agree the climate change and earth quakes are related, except, I think the causation of both is the sun, and the "warming" is taking care of itself. In fact, the old statistical phrase "Correlation does not imply causation" seems to be lost here.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...ion_does_not_imply_causation
Like I said, rather than provide solid science, the "warmists" are just coming up with scare stories about theoritcal problems caused by AGW, and/or tying everything bad to it. |
