Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

[Good2Golf]

Its insulting to say that a post that is completely untrue is untrue?
Its insulting to say that its ridiculous to take the opinion of a random person on the internet over tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of SME? Thats a pretty funny claim considering the position by so many people on this site with respect to their expertise and their reactions in those threads

I never said I dont bother with evaluating their thoughts or information source. I said i dont watch videos because they are almost always a colossal waste of time. But I broke down and started to watch that video. I am 1/3 of the way into and so far there has been no information of any consequence. I guess I should assume that the final 2/3 are better?

What am i to open my mind to? When I take my car to the mechanic I dont ask my 4 yr old grandchild for a second opinion. There has been no evidence presented. There has been no alternative hypothesis. No attempt to address the fundamental questions. No acknowledgement of the literature or the position of the scientific community. We are 40-50 yrs into the study of modern climate science. The first IPCC review was in 1990. Im curious what other scientific theories one would approach in this way

Link to the two studies and we can go over them. But
gas solubility is a function of temperature and
plants arent CO2 limited and global greening has now at least temporarily reversed

Listen to others without the necessity of showing how wrong they are-Is this a two way street?
There are a number of very wise individuals here and sometimes it pays to just listen-Are any of them published climate scientists?

As always the first place to start is with the evidence

Meh.

It’s happening, faster or slower, it’s happening.

Adapt or perish, stopping it isn’t an option.

Climate Change Is Inevitable — It's Time to Adapt

Wired contributing editor Spencer Reiss hits us with the bad news about climate change: “We’re toast.” But luckily, he says, technological change is also accelerating, and we can still come out OK.

Adapt or perish, stopping it isn’t an option.

Some people for some reasons believe otherwise. If temperatures were rising (or dropping) and no anthropogenic culprit could be identified, it'd be obvious that we have to adapt. A mistake people make is in thinking that the anthropogenic culprit is the only or major problem, and that the correction needed isn't worse than the adaptation.

Yay, a new record!

Greenhouse gas concentrations surge again to new record in 2023​

Greenhouse gas levels surged to a new record in 2023, committing the planet to rising temperatures for many years to come, according to a report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). Carbon dioxide (CO2) is accumulating in the atmosphere faster than any time experienced during human existence, rising by more than 10% in just two decades.
Key messages

• CO2 concentrations have increased 11.4 % in just 20 years
• Long lifetime of CO2 in atmosphere locks in future temperature increase
• El Niño and vegetation fires fuel surge in later part of 2023
• Effectiveness of carbon sinks like forests cannot be taken for granted
• Improved understanding of carbon-climate feedbacks is needed

The key contributors to greenhouse gases don’t care about greenhouse gases. They laugh at our obsession with taxing each other into poverty.
