Here we go! Climate Change is about to leap into high gear!

Why do you keep bring up nuclear energy? Do you think I’m opposed?

 

I’ll be here. See you around.

 

Electric vehicles are great if you have a gas backup for longer trips.
If you’re charging an EV in the middle of the day you’ve probably made a mistake. Charging at home is the better option by far.

 

fair nuff

 

It got unusually hot here on the east coast yesterday thanks to tropical storm zeta pushing so much warm air north at once. Temps are supposed to really drop in next few days though.

 

Uhm we do for cheap fuel..

Its freezing here..

 

And how is that electricity generated?

 

Far more efficiently than having a small fossil fuel burning engine in each car.
Even if you use a coal fired power station to generate the electricity it is still far less carbon dioxide per mile.
Use renewable or nuclear energy and it is better still.
Major bonus is not having to breath in carcinogenic exhaust fumes when you walk down the street.

 

Methane has been escaping from deposits in Siberia for millions of years.

No, because it's still just a silly scaremonger fantasy.

 

I'm sure you know it doesn't take much science to predict accurately that there will be extreme weather.

 

Your eyes haven't provided you with any evidence for claims of a climate "crisis" or "emergency."

 

So no actual testable prediction.

Because we can now observe more of the earth than we could in the past.

So no actual testable prediction. Check.

So no actual testable prediction. Check.

So, still no actual, testable prediction. Check.

 

How many once in a lifetime weather events do we need to go through before we have to start figuring something is going on?

Im done arguing the same nonsense with posters on this forum. Can’t make a person understand a thing who’s paycheck requires them not to understand it.

 

Last week, my area experienced record cold, with several days of record coldest high temps on records. Are you implying that we should start worrying now? And if not, why not.

 

I can help.

If it's something that doesn't fit the narrative; it's "weather".

Otherwise, the answer is always AGW.

 

LOL... i know. isn't that interesting... But surely these folks are interested in the data... oh wait... I see your point... lol

 

More than the usual number.

Ahem. It's the anti-fossil-fuel hysteria mongers whose paychecks depend on not understanding -- on DENYING -- that climate change could be natural, as it has always been in the past, and I will thank you to remember it.

In Geological Terms, Today’s Atmospheric CO2 Concentrations Are Still Uncomfortably Low
By P Gosselin on 5. December 2020

Disaster was narrowly averted

Under 180 ppm atmospheric CO2 concentration, life on earth begins to die.

The earth came very close to that point not long ago during the Ice Ages (20,000 years ago). Then the planet warmed naturally, and an increase in atmospheric CO2 to over 200 ppm followed (new study here).

The earth saw CO2 levels of close to 8000 ppm in the past, i.e. about 20 times more than today. The following chart shows the earth’s atmospheric CO2 concentrations for the past 600 million years.



Today, thanks in large part to mankind, concentrations have risen to over 400 ppm, yet historically this remains at the very low end of the scale compared to the thousands of ppm seen naturally earlier in history. . . .
