  1. ah so you see my point about more population being a factor. Just look at how bad the pollution is in some of the most densely packed cities in the world.
  2. Is that why the Navy is moving their base in Norfolk 17 miles inland?
  3. the ones about the Great Barrier Reef going bye bye
  4. actually the majority of research has shown that the best way to limit the carbon footprint is to have one less child. It's one of the biggest problems in the developing world.
  5. the spreading of propaganda is something that FOX has taken right from the Nazi play book.
  6. Good news is that plant based burgers taste exactly the same and are gaining in popularity and are available at most fast food joints. Plant based dairy is driving "real milk" into bankruptcy also.
  7. the sun has existed for 5 billion years and the rate at which it has been adding heat has been fairly constant (note I said "fairly"). If that weren't true, life as we know it would not exist.
  8. that is still an 80s type pattern, Tom. A true pattern change will likely take until Feb 20th to occur if you go by the normal progression of patterns like these (which take about 8 weeks to complete- it started on Dec 22, ironically the first full day of winter!)
  9. it doesn't matter if they were hotter then than they are now- the rate of change now is what matters. And if you go back before human history, mass extinction events resulted because of sudden changes- and we have a mass extinction event underway right now.
  10. increasing severity of el nino has also been connected to AGW.
  11. the amount of heat being added to the oceans is the equivalent of 5 Hiroshima level atomic bombs EVERY SECOND! Also read the paper on oceanic heatwaves that was posted earlier, pretty eyeopening....
  12. I feel really bad for Philly..... Anyway I saw a map of all the storm tracks of the season and they were all north of us, with one right over us. That kind of pattern is bad for snowfall, regardless of how 'cold' it gets in between storms.
  13. If we end up with less than 20" of seasonal snowfall it will be looked at as a bad winter regardless of how cold it gets- thats why we have bad memories of the 80s.
  14. more stats..... the 2010s were the hottest decade on record and had 6 of the top 10 hottest years on record. Also the one year that was hotter than 2019 was the super el nino year of 2016.
  15. funny thing was that was during a solar maximum and right now we are (supposedly) in a solar minimum
  16. Didn't we just get one of those in the Philippines?
  17. it was 70 and 74 in Boston over the weekend, I wonder if back to back days of 70+ in Boston in January has ever happened before?
  18. I'm wondering if their new climate can no longer support their old growth..... ditto with Siberia and California, where other multimillion acre fires have been occurring. We might be seeing a long term evolution towards a more desert or, at the very least, a grassland/savanna kind of climate.
  19. Mar a Lago will likely be flooded before 2050, parts of the Keys have already been underwater for a few months now. About Hong Kong, thats probably what China wants. Did you read about how they didn't care when they had manmade earthquakes as a result of building giant dams?
  20. well the coral reef predictions are sure coming to pass.
  21. Having fewer children is the best way individual people can help.
  22. Yes indeed, about two dozen arsonists were arrested, however the vast and unprecedented scope of the fires was because of the antecedent conditions (hottest and driest on record by a fair margin.)
  23. Trust me, I have been throwing China and India under the bus too. Do you know the air in Delhi India is so polluted they cant even breathe there? The meat industry also has to change- they are right behind China and the US when it comes to greenhouse gas emissions.
  24. I believe they have some professional psychologists working for them who know exactly how to confuse people. The mind games are strong, the science of spreading propaganda has been perfected over the decades..... the Nazis did this too.
  25. Chris, do you think we have a chance at severe weather? Perhaps even a tornado? Long Island has a history of morning severe wx events.
