= VERY REAL, but the term is too narrowly applied to "Human Caused Global Warming" (HCGW). Human activity has been modifying the climate for thousands of years. e.g., the "Cedars of Lebanon" -- one of the wonders of the ancient world, and the expanding desertification of N Africa. But if we stick to only HCGW => this is absolutely real, and is a serious existential threat. Just because there are "Climate Hucksters" out there, does not mean that the science is wrong. James Black, Exxon's chief scientist raised the alarm about Climate Catastrophe in 1977, and his predictions about global warming have been remarkably accurate. PS: CO2 is not the worst Greenhouse Gas (GHG). Methane (CH4) is close to 100x worse at the 20 year time horizon.
THAT ALL SAID, I have never worked on "climate change" as an issue. Why? because it's TOO LATE to do anything about it. Positive feedback loops have already begun, such as lowering of the Earth's Albedo, due to melting of the polar caps, and melting of methane hydrates, e.g., the mystery craters at the Yamal region of Siberia. ALSO: Peak Oil "solves" the problem of HCGW, because there is essentially no more oil to "keep in the ground".
CHEMTRAILS:
Real. It's technically called "albedo modification", a mitigation measure for HCGW. What convinced my was a show I heard on my local NPR station, "Poisoning the Sky", TUC Radio by Maria Gilardin, a replay of the July 15th, 2014 Shasta County Air Quality Management Board. 58 min edit in 2 parts: https://tucradio.org/?s=Poisoning+the+Sky
... but almost 100% of the information shared about chemtrails is extremely dodgy, not well sourced, along the level if rumor/hearsay. EVERY PHOTO which supposedly "proves" chemtrails had another explanation (wing vortices, ballast tanks used during airframe testing, JATO/RATO units, firefighter planes, etc.) There are MANY data gaps. (Where are the planes taking off from? After 20 years or more, there should be pilots coming forward as whistleblowers. Chemtrails activists are worried about chemicals being sprayed from the air, bit seem oblivious to ground-based sources.
Peak Oil = absolutely real. Global Crude Oil production Peaked Nov 2018. Biggest existential threat to humanity in 300,000 years.
Peak Oil, “Climate Change”, Chemtrails
So what is you stance on those topics?
“CLIMATE CHANGE”

Anything else?
Thanks for your response.
Sorry Libor, I'm not tracking all of that.
But I'm glad you liked my article!
