Of course, no liberal would post this. That's why I drop by here every now and then. I'm sure a liberal communist mod will lock this and ban me, though.

Ban you? You flatter yourself. I will ask you to add a little substance to this OP, however, such as a little summary of the article and some discussion points.

It doesn't say that hurricanes will be prevented, just that they will move eastwards.

I am deeply, deeply offended by that.

Climate Change causes hurricanes, not prevents them, and I've lost someone that was mildly close to me in one of such hurricanes.

...The article just says it's possible the changes in climate will push hurricanes into the Atlantic, not prevent them.

I actually don't care about the environment. If the world gets screwed up because we mess it up, boo hoo. Do I care? No, life isn't precious enough to care about.

Founded today, one post, weak OP, and already having an opinion of the population of nationstates. I smell something very susceptible to fire here.

You misrepresent the article since it only says that the hurricane might change paths. and also your OP could do without the mini-rant of a martyr troll.
Looks like a hit and run. shame it would have made him look more legit if he stayed and responded. one thing though...Is one of our mods a communist?

No it is not sarcasm.

Syria is like hell. We have homophobes everywhere we look. We have millions of people without food and water. We have people's human rights being abused every day. We have experts telling us about the environment.

The sooner humanity dies out, the better.
