  1. Don I'm interested only in solutions that have a possibility of working. The USA going carbon neutral TOMORROW won't solve this problem. The USA can geoengineer the solution on its own. Why do we need their permission? Does China ask us for permission to pollute the atmosphere? Did they ask permission to build roughly 250 coal plants over the last 10 years? Who's to say the aerosols caused the monsoon to fail? Why can't it be greenhouse gas induced climate change that did it? Nothing will get solved as long as 90% of the problem lies outside the USA's borders. If they can pollute the atmosphere freely, then we can inject aerosols into it if we want to as well.
  2. Nothing will get fixed if people still act like this is a USA problem. Just like you won't solve your budget woes by cancelling Netflix while keeping the 800 dollar a month car lease.
  3. Forget the 80s, that's not what makes September a nice month. 70s for highs and lower dews is what makes a nice September. Extended summer is just more 70 degree dewpoints and crap weather as far as I'm concerned.
  4. It's not like the first half of regular fall is cold. Why wouldn't you want 70s for highs and lower dews compared to the crap we usually get now in summer?
  5. It's 89 degrees here but because the dewpoint is in the 50s it feels perfectly fine outside.
  6. The wind held off in Queens until that line of storms rotated through with the circulation toward the end of the event. Our strongest winds came with sunshine ironically, but they were really strong, the airports gusted to 70mph.
  7. I don't think anyone is setting fires on purpose in the middle of nowhere of central Canada. There are definitely fires set on purpose or through negligence obviously, I just don't think this is the case. Isn't it just lightning igniting the fires?
  8. Bro this cannot be fixed by forest management. The forest doesn't need managing in the middle of nowhere. What did forests do before people showed up? The only managing that should be done is near homes and power lines.
  9. There's no managing the vast wilderness that are the Canadian boreal forests. They are not only massive but basically depopulated of people.
  10. Yes. I only remember talking about wildfire smoke one time in my life before the last couple of years, and that was summer 2002 with the fires in Quebec.
