Climate change or anthropogenically influenced climate change?

And during the seventies is was global cooling.

The whole thing is a farce, until the argument is pro nuclear and anti renewables, it is a joke.

Glad the oil companies are properly allocating their resources. They will move to non-west companies and still make money. The whole coal burning from Germany proves the green movement is a joke.
