Bombing oil refineries doesn't cause global warming? Explain this so you don't look like an idiot. And while you are at it explain how bombing nuclear power plants is not bad for the environment.

Destroying the planet to save Ukraine. Great plan. What planet is Ukraine on? Oh yeah. This one.
In a refinery there is a limited amount of fuel. Thousands of gallons for sure but not infinite so the fires would go out and that would be that.
In Kuwait it was a LOT different, when the oil wells came on fire it was drawing on oil coming up the chute unbidden so there is a near infinite supply of fuel to screw up the atmosphere.

So I suppose you hope all refineries will burn up and the earth will be saved. Brilliant plan. And the Nuke plant Ukraine targeted? I guess democrats only care bout the environment outside of Russia.

It will only get worse.

I made a point that the oil wells burning was a much greater threat to climate than the destruction of a refinery where ALL the fuel is in giant buckets and will burn out WAY before an oil well being supplied by a forceful ejection of a million gallons of oil shooting out of the ground, TIMES a hundred.
In your twisted so called mind you defend Russia being run by a barbarian.

Ukraine is bombing oil refineries in Russia. Is that causing global warming? If so, is the Ukraine war destroying the earth? I am not saying it is, but a lot of democrats seem to think global warming is destroying the planet. Do democrats hate Russia more than they love the earth?

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/ukrainian-drones-reach-western-siberia-furthest-at ...[text shortened]... e for democrats to admit they don't really believe their own rhetoric about global warming alarmism?
We might agree about some things, but your OP was quite a lame stretch.

It's more likely that a falling off of praise for our Solar God might result in a rather severe solar minimum to teach us all a lesson.

It wasn't intended to be taken literally. It was more sarcasm than anything.
It was a jab to global warming alarmists that support the Ukraine war at the same time. It is hypocritical.

Military vehicles are fossil fuel hogs and major CO2 emitters yet nobody wants to talk about it. Even the most chicken littles of the alarmist crowd don't like to talk about it, let alone do something about it.

I have to conclude they don't believe their own rhetoric. Nobody is destroying the planet. The US military is polluting the environment a lot though. Burn pits, depleted Uranium and water pollution just to name a few. Most people would get sent to jail for doing that, but not the military.

So anything less than that is fine because you hate Russia because Russia is stealing Ukraine territory? Kuwait was stealing Iraq's oil. Both are thieves.

The Piper Alpha oil rig disaster was worse than either, so what is your point?
CO2 is not a horrible threat anymore is it? You can all of the sudden stomach it now, can't you? You can't let GW stop you from funding foreign wars.

Can you finally admit GW is not destroying the planet? After all, you are not interested in moving to Antarctica, are you? Too cold. Ya know how New Yorkers like to say if you can live in NY you can live anywhere? BS. Let's see them live in Antarctica.

You are defending CO2 emissions. I think that is very telling.

My electric bill is less than yours and I drive less than you. That means I am not the problem. Either you are the problem or there is no problem. Which is it?

Just admit you don't care about GW as much as you used to. That is the trend.

I didn't say it was your fault. Zelensky is doing Attacks On Russian Oil Refineries. He Declared an Expansion Of Long-Range Attacks On them.

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/zelensky-declares-will-expand-long-range-attacks-russian-oil-refineries

Why aren't you speaking out against this? This eco terrorism is not what democrats stand for. Not only is it an increase in CO2 emissions it is in complete waste. CO2 for nothing. Ukraine just blows it up so the fuel never gets used.

Do you sleep well at night knowing this? Or do you toss and turn knowing democrats have betrayed their own ideology to prolong a war? All you democrats have to do is accept Russia can keep the territory in Ukraine they already control to reach a peace agreement. Or you can keep condoning the destroying of the planet.

Which do you choose? Which is more important to you?

And the barbarian Putin STARTED A FKING WAR YOU ASSSHOLE, YOU ATTACK ME, I FKING ATTACK YOU. Is there some part of that you don't understand? You act like the Kuwait oil field fires are NOTHING compared to knocking off a refinery.
So let me guess, you love Putin SO MUCH you think any retaliation for the barbarity of Putin is against the law or some crap.
I guess you forgot about the barbarian MISSILE attacks on a TRAIN STATION filled with civilians and not a SINGLE military type. Or attacking maternity hospitals full of pregnant women.
I guess you figure that is payback for Ukraine bombing refineries but the problem there is those attacks happened YEARS AGO, women dying because of the barbarian. So KISS MY ASS YOU FKING COMMIE, if you don't like the way the war is going, fking MOVE TO MOSCOW YOU POS COMMIE, join their military, go fight against Ukraine.

A refinery? You know it was way more than one. You even lie to yourself.

Democrats need to support an armistice with Russia. You can let Russia keep the territory it fought hard for in Ukraine or you can support destroying the planet. You democrats have been brainwashed by so much pro war propaganda you have become the anti peace party.

Against peace and against saving the planet. Maybe Russia should bomb all US refineries since that isn't a problem with you. The Keystone pipeline was horrible but bombing refineries is fine. You cannot put enough powered sugar on that turd.

Your blatant hypocrisy is noted. Sticking it to Russia is more important than the planet. I guess we can get into a refinery bombing war world wide now. You seem okay with that.

You POS COMMIE PROPAGANDIST, I just wish I could run into you in person.
I HOPE there was a fking HUNDRED of them. Your mentor Putin did FAR WORSE to Ukraine and BTW, the KUWAIT fires were LITERALLY a thousand times worse, burning hundreds of wells for months but you are so fking BLINDED by your love of PUTIN you seem to feel every injury to the former Soviet Union which is EXACTLY what Putin is attempting, rebuild the empire. Don't EVEN try to defend that, the ENTIRE PLANET KNOWS WHAT HE WANTS.

"the KUWAIT fires were LITERALLY a thousand times worse"

That is literally an exaggeration and not literally at all. And the only reason that happened is because the US government invaded Iraq after the US diplomats told Saddam they would not get involved. Look at the part of the link below where it says "motives". Kuwait was stealing Iraq's oil. They were also violating OPEC production limits.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuwaiti_oil_fires

The Kuwait emirate is a dictatorship that was defended by the US government. Our government defended oil thieves after encouraging Saddam to invade which was a betrayal to both Kuwait and Iraq. Don't forget our governemt was allied with Saddam before he invaded the oil thieving emirate.
