"You are just as dishonest as the rest of the alarmists"
Sorry, but the dishonest people are the deniers.

"You have all been proved beyond a shadow of a doubt to be liars"
The planet disagrees with you.


Plants and animals can figure it out, even if deniers tell them lies.

A 2011 study found that in response to warming temperatures, species are moving to higher elevations at an average rate of 36 feet per decade and to higher latitudes approximately 10 miles per decade, though individual species vary in their rates.

The National Wildlife Federation reports that 177 of 305 North American bird species shifted their range further north by 35 miles in the last 40 years; and over the last century, 14 species of small mammals extended their range 1,640 feet higher in the Sierra Nevada region. But many scientists say climate change is occurring too rapidly for the majority of species to outrun it. And even if some species are able to migrate northward or upward, they could enter territory where there is increased competition for food or unprecedented interactions with species they have never encountered before. Those that are already at their northern limits have no place left to go. For example, as forests move north into the tundra, many Arctic creatures such as caribou, arctic fox and snowy owl are losing their habitat. Other species may not be able to migrate due to geographical obstructions or man-made barriers such as cities or highways.
