Have you ever even BEEN to China, or even left Incel, Colorado? Kendall, expert on all things he finds in his colon, tries his hands at firefighting "stats" next?

China lives in poverty, you have never been, and neither has Clint Borgen.

The regulators have been taken hostage by lobbyists who successfully hijack state law to ban local competition.

"The burden of proof of safety are on those introducing the novelty."

https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/burden-of-proof

The burden of proof is is on Jack Kruse who is making these claims. If he'd proven his claim then there would be a burden on the manufacturer to prove their product is safe.

The manufacturer is implicitly claiming that artificial blue light is safe... Evening use of light-emitting eReaders negativelyaffects sleep, circadian timing, andnext-morning alertness

"When unsure, defaulting to Nature may be the safer bet."

https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/appeal-to-nature

Nature is a set of random outcomes. Being natural confers no tendency to be better, safer, or to have better outcomes. Also, humans are natural and the electrical properties exploited to produce LED lighting is also natural.

Good grief... Appeal to Nature fallacy applies in the domain of ethics, not in the domain of risk.

The most natural light would be sunlight, which burns you and damages your DNA, causing aging and cancer.

Good thing California doesn't use annual agriculture then....the alfalfa grows all year round.

Invasive species of the past are a prime example of humans moving before understanding the ramification.

Not watching a video, get real. If you can't make your point in a few sentences, you don't know what you're talking about. We can observe the properties of co2, both atmospherically and in the lab, and conclude that a notable percentage increase will have a significant effect. Get the concept yet?

The particular brand of stupidity on display also points to another signal vanity of our time: the conviction that if you measure things enough, you can control them. http://bit.ly/1B1VhBx

pv/T=k Boyles law. Pressure *Volume /Temperature = Constant Yes they are related but temperature (which is a function of the speed at which particles are moving in a substance) determines both Pressure and Volume in nature. So pressures dont change temperature, temperature changes pressure and volume. Unless you want to add a world wide compressor pump, temperature depends on how much energy is in the atmosphere and not on pressure.

Pressure, thus temperature, varies with altitude.

So runaway global warming is not possible. We will just hit a hotter and wetter equilibrium.

I remember many years ago Larry King did an interview on his Live show on CNN. They called it "global warming" back then and not "climate change." The alarmist was arguing the world would turn into a desert. The climatologist King had on (I want to say was credentialed from MIT) said if global warming was happening, it would get wetter not dryer.

That being said, monocropping agriculture has a good history of turning fertile areas into deserts... "Massive structures in middle of wasteland??" http://bit.ly/1c30qiw

Nassim Taleb: "...the reliance on 1-sided accounts...which can be controlled by the mandarins, lasted from the mid 20th century until the US elections of 2016...social networks, allowing a 2-way flow of info, put back the mechanism of tidings in its natural format...journos worry considerably more about the opinion of other journalists than that of the general public.

It's time to take out the nazi trash again.

or you can assume that our body evolved mechanism to deal with the recurring lack of food and periods of fast might be where you are the sharpest. This would definitively be required to be able to find food. To the opposite, the constant influx of food is not "natural" to the body.

George Cahill wrote a paper called Fuel Metabolism in Starvation that describes a lot of that. Our liver converts fatty acids to ketone bodies. One of the papers he references: BETA-HYDROXYBUTYRATE: THE MOST EFFICIENT FUEL Veech and colleagues discovered that administering -hydroxybutyrate to the perfused rat heart in place of glucose increased work output but decreased oxygen consumption (35). http://bit.ly/2AI7LUt

Great, if you had a handy decoder ring to help separate the few things they got right from all the other batshit they didn't.

Sounds like you're committing base rate fallacy. For most people, you have to also consider what did religion got right. Scientism has its own decoder rings...

Survival comes first, truth, understanding, and science later... In other words, you do not need science to survive (we’ve done it for several hundred million years) , but you need to survive to do science. https://medium.com/incerto/how...

I think there's a famous wall in China that tried to keep invaders out. You may want to study up on that. Ag societies are always worried about invasions. Then one day we find out the bees & butterflies are dying out.
