Greta is great. Young person with passion and conviction.
Contrast that to the average gringo that is overweight and selfish (gluttony, sloth) and
doesn’t care a lick about the world we live in.
Passionate youth trumps old sticks in the mud. I will choose Greta over half pint or Clarkie!

Interesting read but remember Corporations are people too.
"DENVER (AP) — Exxon Mobil’s scientists were remarkably accurate in their predictions about global warming, even as the company made public
statements that contradicted its own scientists’ conclusions, a new study says.
The study in the journal Science Thursday looked at research that Exxon funded that didn’t just confirm what climate scientists were saying, but
used more than a dozen different computer models that forecast the coming warming with precision equal to or better than government and academic
scientists.
This was during the same time that the oil giant publicly doubted that warming was real and dismissed climate models’ accuracy."
Sounds like the playbook of a certain popular 'news' network. Believe one thing but say the other so you can bamboozle the lazy illiterate all for the
mighty peso.

So the scientists quoted in the article are paid by research funding in lawsuits against Exxon. The AP also receives similar funding from 1 of the
same organizations.....there is no dissenting opinion offered from any source...but AP is unbiased...
Woke....yes nodding bobbleheads who accept any premise their government overlords dictate to them

Meanwhile on the little atoll I work on we are experiencing the lowest low tides ever seen in recorded history - we had to extend the ramp to our dock
which has served well for over 20 years. In the inter mountain west snowfall accumulates in near record quantities as well as the norther great
plains. Additionally every prediction for catastrophe that should have come true by now has NOT happened....at what point do you actually question
the "science"?

You cant see The forest for the trees!
One Anecdote from one atoll does not change the world-wide sea level rise being observed.
One wet la nina winter for portions of the usa does not negate the long term drought observed in the west, nor the global warming, global climate
change being observed.
And you forgot to mention the super warm winter being observed in NE this year…
Woke!

Another storm hits the NE US!
Goat,
You should get out more with your GF Greta!
Remember when Oroville reservoir overflowed and was in danger of collapse a few years ago? Well it’s doing it again!

50 feet of snow in Mammoth so far. We are going to be able to ski until July 4th.
Bet Goat has never skied in his life.

There is one absolute about water on earth-
The total amount of water on the earth has not changed in thousands of years.
There is no water shortage ONLY a distribution issue.
The earth has changed its tilt 6 times in its history along with a subsequent change in climates in specific area around the globe.
Back in the age of dinosaurs there was much more CO2 and O2 in the atmosphere. Also a higher average temperature.
12,000 years ago we had glaciers in Chicago If modern man is the cause of "Global Warming" and the retreating glaciers today then where did the
glaciers go 12,000 years ago when man was basically nonexistent?

They have looked back many thousands of years at deposits in ice cores to analyze the relationship between temperature and CO2 levels.
They do roughly track each other, but it is CO2 that tracks temperature.

If Industrialization and the burning of dino juice has/is causing the glaciers to retreat today-
What caused the glaciers over North America to retreat 12,000 years ago when that Ice Age disappeared? They were hundreds of time larger than now!

Don’t be stupid Cliffy. Smoking kills, even if we are all going to die anyways. Man’s GHG is causing warming now, even if warming would occur
another time for another reason.
We know our gas is causing warming, and that warming is disruptive now, so why not stop doing what is causing the destruction? Perhaps the world
climate would be better for our society if we hadn’t flocked it up, eh? Let’s unflock it.
Woke!

Those damn scientists!
Uh oh… science!
Sea levels rising rapidly in southern U.S., study finds
A study published Monday finds sea-level rise along the coast of the southeastern United States has accelerated rapidly since 2010, raising fears that
tens of millions of Americans’ homes in cities across the South will be at risk from flooding in the decades to come.
“It’s a window into the future,” Sönke Dangendorf, an assistant professor of river-coastal science and engineering at Tulane University, who
co-authored the study that appeared in Nature Communications, told the Washington Post.
That paper and another published last month in the Journal of Climate find that sea levels along the Gulf Coast and the southern Atlantic Coast have
risen an average of 1 centimeter per year since 2010. That translates to nearly 5 inches over the last 12 years, and it is about double the rate of
average global sea-level rise during the same time period.
The Journal of Climate study found that the hurricanes that have recently hammered the Gulf Coast, including Michael in 2018 and Ian — which was
blamed in the deaths of 109 Floridians last year — had a more severe impact because of higher sea levels.
“It turns out that the water level associated with Hurricane Ian was the highest on record due to the combined effect of sea-level rise and storm
surge,” Jianjun Yin, a climate scientist at the University of Arizona and the author of the Journal of Climate study, told the Post.
Data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) show the water level at Lake Pontchartrain, an estuary bordering New Orleans, is
eight inches higher than it was in 2006. Other cities threatened by rising oceans in the region include Houston, Miami and Mobile, Ala.
The centimeter-per-year rate is far faster than experts had expected, and it is more in line with projections made for the end of the century,
Dagendorf said. High-tide flooding — when the tides bring water onto normally dry land on rain-free days — has more than doubled on the Gulf Coast
and Southeast coast since the beginning of this century, according to NOAA. Recent years have seen records for high-tide flooding obliterated. The
city of Bay St. Louis, Miss., went from three days of high-tide flooding in 2000 to 22 days in 2020.
A study by scientists with the University of Miami, NOAA, NASA and other institutions, which has not yet undergone peer review, found that the
Southeastern sea-level rise accounted for “30%-50% of flood days in 2015-2020.”
“In low-lying coastal regions, an increase of even a few centimeters in the background sea level can break the regional flooding thresholds and lead
to coastal inundation,” the study said.
Woke!

large audience?

Here is one that compares C02 impact of EV vs. ICE. You'd have to drive an EV for 4 years before it's C02 impact is less than an ICE in total.
Because of one specifc thing that they don't tell you about EVs.
