It only takes 10 years for trees to reach maximum CO2 capture. One way to reduce CO2 is to grow a bunch of trees, cut them down and preserve them, then grow more. CO2 is then stored as biomass.
"Regarding nuclear weapons, this is just incorrect. The actual problem, the one which all countries trying to develop them get stuck on the longest, is not how to enrich Uranium, and not even how to put it together in a bomb;"
I couldn't agree more, this is exactly what I said.
"it is how to make sure that that bomb does not go off on its own, and yet can do so upon activating the trigger system. The trigger system has to work in a very precise way, with an initial controlled explosion initiated with great time precision - and that is why only selected few countries have managed to weaponize nuclear energy."
No, like I said you just have to put enough fissile material in one place, and it will go critical, because of natural neutron production due to spontaneous fission starting the chain reaction. For some fissile materials, such as plutonium you have to make it more dense, which is done by compressing it with conventional explosives. With Uranium-235 this is not necessary.
"The physics is all well known by now. It is the details of implementation that take decades to work out, even with all schematics present. The fantasy of random guy on a kitchen assembling a hydrogen bomb and detonating it happens only in Hollywood movies."
Actually, there was a death cult that very nearly completed a nuke, among other things such as sarin gas and anthrax.

I agree that the point of the government is to protect individual liberties, but what you still don't seem to understand is that climate change is a threat to individual liberty, and to markets and global freedom in general. It is much the same way that littering on the highway oversteps individual freedoms, because it is a misuse of public space, so if the atmosphere and the climate are to be considered no ones property, then they are a public resource and ought to be controlled jointly. If someone does something to spoil it, they should pay for the damage they caused. I don't understand why people think this is controversial, you can do what you want on your own property but not on public land and not with public resources. If what you are doing effects me in a negative way, the government should stop it, because by your own admission that is their job.

You are talking about the timeline of a system under the assumption of no feedback. That is, if we keep the CO2 level in the atmosphere constant, then after X number of years the trees will reach the maximum CO2 saturation level. However, the CO2 level, in turn, is affected by its capture by the trees, which leads to exponential decay of the degree of imbalance, and that exponential decay can last for quite a long time.
Sure, but you cannot make a nuclear bomb this way: your bomb will blow up at the production stage. Considering how expensive enrichment of Uranium is, I do not see anyone wasting money in such a spectacular way.
Shinrikyo made a lot of big promises, but they actually could not produce anything that would kill more than a dozen people, despite years of planning and possessing extensive resources. Their only prominent terrorist attack killed fewer people, than some single knife attackers have. Knives are not regulated in Japan, while nukes are...
"Nearly completed a nuke" is a very weak statement. This "nearly" in engineering often constitutes 99% of the actual work yet to be done.
Me sneezing also affects you in a negative way. Something affecting you in a negative way in itself is not a reason for penalising the perpetrator. It is not about what affects you in a negative way; it is about what violates your rights. There is no right to have unpolluted air in the wilderness, for example; you could make a case for having unpolluted air on your property, but unless you can specifically pinpoint someone who is responsible for a significant fraction of that pollution (such as a factory next door, for example), you have no case to make here.
If you believe that someone violates your individual freedoms, you can take it to a court; that is how the legal system works. But you cannot go to the court and say, "Society as a whole violates my individual freedoms by polluting air, so all of its members should be sanctioned". Any reasonable court will dismiss your case instantly. Again, the government is the only entity allowed to make such cases - and it should not be, assuming the Founding Fathers' design.
I know some left-leaning libertarians subscribe to the idea that unclaimed resource = collectively owned resource. I have always found this very bizarre and cannot wrap my head around the reasoning behind such a view - but to each their own.
You have the right to buy and sell slaves, of course. Similarly, slaves have the right to not participate in these transactions and not be bought - which undermines the term "slave". Slavery as in forcing people to work against their will is not the free market; it is closer to a socialist market, a fundamentally coercive institution, and historically came not from capitalism, but from mercantilism, which is a very different system. Mercantilism is not concerned with voluntary exchanges; it is concerned with pillage and plunder in the name of the crown.

The little boy, the first atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima was a gun and socket type weapon. The U-235 was separated into two pieces, which when brought together with conventional explosives constituted critical mass.
Sneezing, in the context of spreading of pathogens, does effect me negatively, but it isn't the same as releasing CO2 because the pathogen is making it happen rather than you doing it willingly, so the sick individual is not to blame, unless they created the pathogen in a lab with intention and released it.
We can point to the major CO2 producers, Just 100 companies are responsible for about 71% of greenhouse gas emissions, including the products released from the combustion of fossil fuels by individuals.

I am talking not about a single tree, but about the whole environment, where the number of trees does not stay constant, but is described by a somewhat complicated differential equation.
That gun and socket weapon took decades to develop, with the most brilliant scientists in the world working hard on it. It was not a work of a bunch of amateurs or bureaucrats; not something everyone can replicate. 75 years since then, only around a dozen countries even have the means to produce nuclear weapons, and virtually all of those countries find it too economically inefficient to do actively.
You can suppress sneezing in most cases if you try really hard, so you are doing it willingly to an extent.
Even if there was just one company producing 100% greenhouse gas emissions, it would not change the argument - unless the emissions were so bad, they led to significant worsening of air quality on people's property. And that worsening takes a very long time to become significant in any way that could be punishable by a reasonable law.
It is a different case if, say, there is a factory near your house actively burning waste, creating a health hazard for you. There you have a very strong case to make for some form of reparations - paid directly to you, rather than some intermediate governmental organisation. Individual lawsuits are settled directly between the entities involved.

You can suppress sneezing to a certain extent, or just cover you mouth like a decent person, but that doesn't mean you decided to sneeze, so it still isn't voluntary the way driving to work alone instead of car pooling is.
The emissions are so bad that they effect everyone on a global scale, as I have stated again, and again.
Specifically:
- Increase is size and frequency of storms
- loss of biodiversity, and marine resources in particular
- destruction of coastal property due to erosion and increasing sea levels.
- destruction of property due to more frequent wildfires
- mass displacement of persons in certain geographic areas, due to loss of water resource
- mass starvation and famine brought about by higher temperatures killing plants
- huge loss in profits from companies that rely on coastal resources and agriculture
- Higher average costs for basic amenities, including food, water, and housing
- rise in authoritarian regimes globally
This isn't something we will see in 100 years, we see the effects of this right now.Consider the illegal immigrant from Mexico to the US. It is not readily apparent how this is the result of climate change, but in fact it is and in more than one way. In the countries most effected, famine and drought push desperate people into a state of panic, rising crime rates and disorder. Wages stagnate if work can even be found. This leads to rise of authoritarian regimes to attempt to control order. Many people will chose to leave for other countries such as the US, where even getting paid a fraction of minimum wage is more than enough to send home. In the US, agriculture costs increase, which are themselves due to changes in climate, mostly from increased water consumption resulting from higher temperatures. This pushes farmers to hire underpaid illegal workers to offset the costs. Many will also work on fishing boats, who now have to go further out and for longer to harvest the sea food that used to be plentiful. There is a powerful draw then for new people to enter the US. This results in increased housing prices, since each of these immigrants will need new homes and of course they themselves need food and water to survive. Meanwhile, destruction of coastal cities has lead to increased infrastructure costs to build dikes and waterways to not drown the city, increasing taxes and decreasing property values. Forest fires eat up much of that critical housing resource, and do nothing to solve the problem of CO2 release, but in fact make it much worse by releasing more CO2.
Climate change is a huge deal. The fact that so many people won't do anything about it because they are so preoccupied with themselves that they can't be bothered to do anything is an atrocity.

If you only consider the exact period of the Manhattan project and that is it, then yes, it was a very short period. If you consider the entire time it took for the idea of splitting atom to be weaponized starting with basic research in the field, then yes, it took decades - just as it always takes all other nations.

It does not matter who emissions affect; what matters in the property context is how much the emissions produced by one person affect another person and their property. Obviously 8 billion people combined are going to produce some global effects; you are free to file 8 billion lawsuits if you like, but you cannot group all people into one large entity and sue that entity - or, at least, you should not be able to in a proper legal system.
What is a huge deal for you may not be even a blip on a radar for others. Realise that you are not the center of the Universe, and your vision of the future is not shared by everyone.

You can't sue the people, but you can sue the government for failing to provide proper legal protections that lead to damage of your property from the collective actions of individuals. After all, it was their lack of action that lead to the destruction of your property, so technically that would leave them guilty of your burdens.

Mass murder does not negatively impact the whole planet either, even if everyone is doing it. You focus too much on the planet, and too little on the people living on that planet.
At what point should negative externality warrant restitution? Courts typically use "reasonable judgement" based on whether the damage dealt to a person by another person is deemed significant or not. How significant is the damage I am dealing to you by driving my car to work? Am I disrupting your life in any way?
There is a large difference between failing to provide legal protections required by the contract, and failing to ensure a favorable outcome for the party involved. For example, when you hire a lawyer, your lawyer only vows to represent you to the best of their ability; they do not vow to win the case.
Your narrative ultimately comes down to there existing some form of "objective good" that the society as a whole should strive for. Have you considered that different people may have different preferences? What if, for example, I want climate change to occur, because I am bored with the current climate and want to see what a planet with a different climate would look like? You will have a hard time justifying the claim that my desire is somehow wrong.

If there was an apartment building, in which some of the rooms were lit on fire to warm the rest of the building, you wouldn't say that we were putting the building's needs ahead of the tenants, you would tell people to stop being dumb and find a way to heat the building without burning it. That is essentially what is happening with fossil fuels and renewable, we are trying to find a way to make people stop burning the planet.
I'm not advocating for any kind of objective good here, but there is something which science has repeatedly concluded would be ultimately bad for our society if we do not stop it. We can say objectively, that if we don't do anything about the climate that certain things will occur. If someone wants these things to happen, they are most likely a danger to society.
If someone wants to murder everyone because humans are evil and destroying the planet, we can't tell them they can't have those views, but the second they try releasing a deadly super virus, they all ought to be killed because that violates the rights of others to not want to live.
In the case of climate change, because these actions can objectively lead to destruction, wanting it to happen prevents those who don't want it from being able to have their way as well, so only maintaining the status quo, by enforcing regulations on the production of greenhouse gasses and providing benefits such as subsidies to companies that develop green technologies can we maintain the status quo.
Climate change violates the rights and property of others, so there is a moral obligation from liberal principals to do something about it.

Perhaps survival is not paramount for some of us. Humans sometimes sacrifice their lives for something, and do so quite willingly, I might add. "Survival at all costs" is a questionable paradigm to follow. If we have to choose between introducing certain policies most of us do not want, and a vague perspective of making the Earth inhabitable at some point in the future, then the former is not necessarily the right choice.
"Bad" and "good" are subjective categories by definition, and science cannot make any conclusions involving them. What is bad for some members of society could be good for other ones.
My mother hates hot climate, and I hate cold climate. Wherever the average temperature moves, it will make one of us happier and another one of us unhappier (I realise that it is not the whole picture, but you get my point).
I do not disagree with regards to the murder; I was just pointing out that how something affects the planet is not nearly as important from the anthropocentric perspective as how something affects the individuals.
Not at all; climate change can lead to both destruction and creation. And destruction, in turn, is not necessarily for the worse; sometimes destruction is necessary for growth to begin.
Climate change cannot violate anyone's rights, because it is not a legal entity. You cannot sue climate change or imprison it, for example.

That has been the theme of all of my posts so far tracing back to my first which is only one word. Climate change effects everyone, so everyone must contend with it. Those who do the most to promote climate change represent an existential threat to some, and a threat to private business owners and land owners everywhere.
You still have this simple idea in your head that everything is just going to get a little warmer, but it's not that simple, and the fact that you would even allude to it, and say it directly very early on just goes to show that maybe you are not making a completely informed decision here.
Climate change effects individuals.
Anyone who promotes climate change is a threat to those effected.
It is not right that we should do nothing about it.
I have very clearly demonstrated how changes in climate brought about by human activities, and CO2 production in particular, can and does lead to property destruction and violation of human rights, and because it is caused by humans humans must be held responsible. In particular, climate change results in:
- Increase is size and frequency of storms
- loss of biodiversity, and marine resources in particular
- destruction of coastal property due to erosion and increasing sea levels.
- destruction of property due to more frequent wildfires
- mass displacement of persons in certain geographic areas, due to loss of water resource
- mass starvation and famine brought about by higher temperatures killing plants
- huge loss in profits from companies that rely on coastal resources and agriculture
- Higher average costs for basic amenities, including food, water, and housing
- rise in authoritarian regimes globally
You haven't contended with these issues or even really addressed them besides to just deny it.I mean, right now your argument boils down to: "some people might want their homes destroyed by flooding, coastal erosion, and super storms. Shouldn't they have the right to have that happen?" That's F***ing . Even if someone does want that, for whatever reason, doesn't mean it should be allowed if this also means that someone who doesn't want their home destroyed by flooding, coastal erosion, and super storms. This is just a terrible argument.

You know little if anything about time. It is a distance measured with a velocity that is reflected establish a start and a finish point of distances that are described as Degree, Hour, minute, and second. The argument of time is using two principles that do not co-exist and a year is an approximation on the scale of time. The atomic second is also an approximation on scale.

Isaiah prophesied the darkening of all three of these sources of light during the Day of the LORD:
Behold, the day of the Lord comes, cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate; and He will destroy its sinners from it. For the stars of heaven and their constellations will not give their light; the sun will be darkened in its going forth, and the moon will not cause its light to shine. (Isa. Isa. 13:9-10) [emphasis added]
In Joel’s vision of the Day of the Lord, the darkening of these same heavenly bodies attends the advance of His army (Joel Joel 2:10-11), which are probably the demonic forces unleashed in the next chapter. The darkening of the sun, moon, and stars will be relatively frequent during the various judgments of this terrible period (Joel Joel 3:15).darkened
The sun became “black as sackcloth” as a result of the sixth seal judgment (Rev. Rev. 6:12+). During the plagues of Egypt God brought complete darkness during the day (Ex. Ex. 10:21-23), but only a partial darkening is described here. The darkening of the sun, moon, and stars at this juncture is most likely due to cloud cover—either by smoke or other physical disturbances (Isa. Isa. 5:30; Eze. Eze. 32:6; Zep. Zep. 1:14-15; Rev. Rev. 9:2+). As in Genesis, the language may reflect the perspective of the earth dweller so that cloud or dust could obscure these cosmic bodies. Others assume the sun, moon, and stars themselves are directly affected: “Somehow, the visible luminaries in the heavens for a time, maybe a day, maybe several days, slow down their internal reactions in such a way as to reduce their power by a factor of one-third. The day and night, as a result are only two-thirds as bright as normal, even though the skies are completely clear of haze or anything else to obscure the light.”1 Although the text does not say that the skies are completely clear , it is certainly within God’s power to tinker with the internal mechanism of solar power since at a later date the sun’s burning will be intensified (Rev. Rev. 16:8-9+). See also Jeremiah Jer. 4:23-28; Matthew Mat. 24:29; Mark Mark 13:24; Luke Luke 21:25; Acts Acts 2:20. See commentary on Revelation 6:12. See The Plagues of Egypt and the Tribulation.

These are the same things.
If humans can eradicate all life through nuclear Armageddon, then why is it a stretch to think that we can not raise global temperatures through release of greenhouse gasses?
Climate change is an ecological disaster, that is the destruction of plants and animals, marine life in particular, that is caused because CO2 released from fossil fuels acts like a blanket, trapping in heat.
Does the bible not say in Genesis that humans are to be stewards of the earth? That we are to care for it and ensure that it is taken care of? That the land must not be abused?
If anything, Christians should be the first to do something about climate change, but as always the atheist scientists have to save your @$$.

If you have ever heard of chaos theory, then you will know that your first point is moot.
Man could destroy itself at any time... are you really willing to put the whole of humanity on the line because you think we are somehow safe from ourselves? Have we not free will? Yet another pathetic instance of not being able to have your cake and eat it to. If we have free will we can kill ourselves and change the climate. If god intervenes, then we do not have free will.
In the 1980's there was only a fringe minority of scientific papers that said the earth was cooling. They just got all the press, and you like the gullible boot licker you are believed it.
The planet isn't going anywhere. Humans on the other hand, are a few missteps and misunderstandings from extinction. Make no mistake, human's are not sacred in any way, and the planet will be just fine after we are all dead.
The introduction of a carbon tax will help improve the climate by allowing natural forces to restore balance. You can not sit there in ignorance and expect everything to be fine because a man on a cloud who you have no evidence of loves you. People like you make me sick. It is as if you lit a fire, and now you are trying to blame it on external forces. You took an active role in killing the planet and making life a living hell for future generations, and you will just have to accept that.
Oh, and the meme you post is fake news.
