Bruh, what you know about Katrina? And what exactly are governments going to do to prevent Hurricanes from forming?
If you're talking about recovery after a natural disaster, let me tell you something. Grand Isle, Louisiana was fucking flattened after Katrina and they got less than New Orleans did from the government. The people rebuilt there not the government and within a couple of years it was business as usual there even though they had a few storms after that.
New Orleans on the other hand still has depooied buildings and its been over 10 years now!!!!!!
The problems with natural disaster, in Louisiana at least, global warmin/climate change, whatever yall callin it now don't have much to do with it. Where I live, costal erosion and saltwater intrusion are 1000x more threatening than climate change. That ain't melting ice caps either that's making it sink, that's just living on an old river delta.
Give us rebates to go to water refrigerant and people will happily switch. It's just like solar.

Flat out embarrassing that despite what science has proven for decades it's more important for these people to take low ball shots at an arbitrary side to make them feel better about themselves. Science doesn't operate under "left" or "right" conditions. Even more embarrassing because whole countries who've adopted cleaner energy and benefited from it must just be wrong right. There's even states in the US that are adopting more of it, but no it's just a hoax. That's what scientist do, create bogus lies, not politicians. Some of these politicians don't even understand economics.
Only problem is that specific people and enterprises do stand to gain monetarily from a pro-climate change agenda. There is always money to be made from making catastrophic doomsday predictions. Should we go along with this narrative and increase costs, disproportionately affecting the poor, because politicians tell us its the right thing to do?

Kerry will not give up the air conditioning in his own home(s).
No, politicians should not be paving our future, science is the only option. It's not like fossil fuels are infinite, that's elementary knowledge now, hopefully. If there's an economy for it, then that's not a bad thing, should create more jobs. It's not doomsday predictions, it's warnings, sprinkled with some possibilities, but the opinion that it doesn't exist is bordering conspiracy theory territory. Some of the most gifted scientist have been saying it for very long, and there hasn't been any scientific data that suggests otherwise, just a "well, how do we know that's from global warming".
Why? I don't agree with you. I know you come to all arguments from a position of believing your right before it even starts. However, I agree with his statement. He was at a convention regarding appliances and HFC. He made the point that what they are doing is important for humanity as it helps decrease climate change just like trying to stop terrorism is important for humanity. I completely agree with him and would have made a similar sentiment.

He didn't say air conditioners are as a big a threat as ISIS do you forge this narrative in your own head to fit your spin?
Why is heat such a problem that you need fucking ACs?
I mean if you have a house whith thick enough STONE walls (and not that crappy wood) and have a propper isolation all you need to do is close the coutains and almost no heat will come in. Never undserstand the need for such crappy things (AVs).
