Sorry to disappoint you, but my world is not one of doom and gloom, it is working for positive change.

Everything you have to say on the topic of climate change is either irrelevant or condescending, as if I or others don't understand the kindergarten level statements you make.

I mean no condescension toward you. I have given you opportunity to prove some of your slanderous statements about other posters on this board.

It isn’t condescending to tell someone they haven’t weighed the other possibilities. You have handcuffed and chained yourself to an ideology that is definitely unproven.

In your mind, it seems you are unable to see anything other than the world is going to burn to the ground as a result of the brainwashing from political idealogues that have a horse in the race.

I implore you to take your goggles and mask off and look at and smell the roses for yourself. They are much more beautiful in person than just listening to how they are described by others.

caj13 & surabi,

I’m not saying anything the articles I posted are saying things. Basically that the real weather isn’t following their models and scientists are using models that predict unrealistically high temperatures.

“Something strange is happening in the Pacific and we must find out why
Unexpectedly, the eastern Pacific Ocean is cooling. If this “cold tongue” continues, it could reduce greenhouse gas warming by 30 per cent – but also bring megadrought to the US”

“ Scientists need to get much choosier in how they use model results, a group of climate scientists argues in a commentary published today in Nature. Researchers should no longer simply use the average of all the climate model projections, which can result in global temperatures by 2100 up to 0.7°C warmer than an estimate from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). “We need to use a slightly different approach,” says Zeke Hausfather, climate research lead at payment services company Stripe and lead author of the commentary. “We must move away from the naïve idea of model democracy.” Instead, he and his colleagues call for a model meritocracy, prioritizing, at times, results from models known to have more realistic warming rates.”

GIGO!

Record shattering: Earth had its hottest July in 174 years
https://www.noaa.gov/news/record-shattering-earth-had-its-ho...

And…

Sea ice coverage hit a record low: July 2023 set a record for the lowest global July sea ice extent (coverage) on record. Globally, sea ice extent in July 2023 was about 470,000 square miles less than the previous record low from July 2019.

Goat note: 470,000 sq miles, that’s more than the size of the state of Texas




Woke!

Goat,

NOAA has doubled down on an above normal hurricane season for 2023.let’s see how the models do.

“Scientists at NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center — a division of the National Weather Service — have increased their prediction for the ongoing 2023 Atlantic hurricane season from a near-normal level of activity to an above-normal level of activity with today’s update. Forecasters believe that current ocean and atmospheric conditions, such as record-warm Atlantic sea surface temperatures, are likely to counterbalance the usually limiting atmospheric conditions associated with the ongoing El Nino event.

NOAA forecasters have increased the likelihood of an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season to 60% (increased from the outlook issued in May, which predicted a 30% chance). The likelihood of near-normal activity has decreased to 25%, down from the 40% chances outlined in May's outlook. This new update gives the Atlantic a 15% chance of seeing a below-normal season.”

And in Canada...

"By 4 p.m. Monday at least 12 daily heat records had fallen across B.C., surpassing the eight that fell Sunday.

The 40 C benchmark was also broken for the first time in Canada this year, with the mercury hitting 40.5 C near Lytton in the southern Interior and 40.1 C at Lillooet in the Fraser Valley on Monday afternoon."

Surabi-

Do you expect the world to stay the same? No temperature variation?
Have you ever seen a line graph for 100,000 years or so to see how insignificant these last 100 years is in the grand scheme of things?

Ice ages and extreme heat are nothing new. Stop the BS

No one cares what happened 100,000 years ago except man-made climate change deniers. We care if life can survive on this planet given the rapid and dangerously escalating rate of climate change.

That is exactly what I thought you would come up with.

Apparently science and history only apply to the last couple decades. Talk about context. You are displaying your ignorance “bigly”!

Surabi, Goatchaser, SFH,

If the sea level is really rising as the doomsdayers say, why are $100,000,000 resort projects being built on the beaches all over the world? The banks are financing them…… Why would they do that if they were in danger????

Why do all the climate change politicians own expensive beach front homes?

Why is that????

Can anyone give a rational answer to this?

Well, construction loans are just 3 years. The commercial loans post-construction are just 5 to 20 years.

Have you ever noticed that a bank will loan you money for a car, despite that car having high risk of damage, and car decreases in value every day…

Climate Change Was on Trial in Montana
A judge found there was “a fundamental constitutional right to a clean and healthful environment.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/15/climate/climate-change-wa...

The state of Montana has a constitutional obligation to protect its residents from climate change.

That was the stunning ruling from a judge who delivered a landmark decision on Monday. It compels Montana, a major coal and gas producing state, to consider climate change when deciding whether to approve or renew fossil fuel projects.

The state Constitution guarantees residents “the right to a clean and healthful environment.” In a lawsuit, Held v. Montana, 16 young people argued that the government had violated that right by enabling rampant development of fossil fuels, contributing to climate change and polluting the state.

Last couple decades? You are so ignorant.

"On Thursday, June 29, 1826, Thomas Jefferson (April 13, 1743 – July 4, 1826) recorded his last entry in his weather observation log. This was six days before his death. Jefferson, was a Founding Father of the United States and the country's third president, from 1801 to 1809. He also kept a thorough diary of his meteorological observations.

For more than 50 years, Jefferson actively observed weather to better understand the American climate."

The term "woke" specifically refers to being aware of discrimination against others based on their race, gender, nationality, religion, etc.

It has nothing to do with climate change activism, or anything else. But of course the simple-minded don't understand that, and now use it to mean any ideas they deem "liberal". Just like calling gays and trans people "groomers" and "pedophiles", and calling those who care about the good of all rather than just themselves "socialists" and "communists", you love to pervert the meaning of words to use as dog whistles to try to demonize anyone who doesn't think like you.

These people used to confine themselves to their own communities of like-minded idiots and bigots. Now they shamelessly post their ignorance all over the place and have so little self-awareness, they are incapable of embarrassment and think their views are normal and mainstream.

I agree 100% if you are talking about the "woke" ones on this board. In the old days people minded their own business. Those were happy times. Today you woke folks mind anyone's business you choose, tell them how you act, and on top of that call them nasty names.

What a miserable life you must all live.
