Man has no effect on climate change, it changes every year and we are here for the ride, and nothing else. Anyone who feels differently is a fool.

Just look at the results. CO2 emissions are accelerating, not being controlled. World leaders are more concerned with appearing to be taking effective action rather than actually taking effective action. The goal being to preserve the status quo economic structure.

Stephen Stewart

A net force since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution was and caused global warming. Hey, the fact is that if you do not want the product, then do not buy it. Greed is a part of human nature. No one knows the answer to the question. Just do not buy the product or drive, period. Science

Stephen Stewart

The emphasis is on scientific and theological knowledge; science and theology share considerable commonality. Various models of the science-religion interaction have been proposed. A priori arguments are not Christian claims that the world is eternal, and reaction is normative.

We have to commute to work, approximately 70 miles every day. We fill up once a week, and the cost has risen from an average of $36.50 before the Iran war, to now $55.00 each week. We now have to budget more for gas than we did. And there is still nothing to show for any of this pointless conflic

Max

So, you support Iran? Well, I support America.

Im driving about 81.6 miles a day to get my son to daycare and then myself to work. Car averages 21 mpg and requires minimum 91 octane fuel. $70 twice a week plus what my husband spends in fuel for just traveling back and forth to work and home. Keeping son home 2 days from daycare to save on fuel.

You need a more fuel-efficient car.

While no one enjoys paying more $ gas is cheap for what you get.

I wish puppet Biden did not drain the strategic petroleum reserve in a failed political scheme, much like his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, to buy votes. The oil pipelines to Canada, that Biden stopped, would be handy about now too. Voting for future Democrats will be very limited.

Max

Trump had just refilled it, after Obama drained it down to nothing.

Steve Baumann

Far bigger issues than fuel prices
