with climate? hmmmm I'll disagree with you there. I tell you, I'd love for it to be ten degrees warmer in Chitown today and everyday it's under 70 degrees. Yet miraculously I can't.No one should deny man-made climate change. It's a fact.No one should deny man-made climate change. It's a fact.
Nor should anyone wildly exaggerate it, or make ridiculous claims about it's effects.
West Antarctica glaciers are collapsing because of a few tenths of a degree change in the air? For a few decades? Gimme a break! Or a few hundredths in the ocean? Absurd!
The scale of man-made change is puny. The claims are absolutely huge.
There are laws against shouting FIRE in public places to start a panic. They should be used against the media and public figures who make up and broadcast unsupported Forecasts of Doom to the public.
It is? It's a fact? holy crap Ian. wow. what are the facts?
If we can, why can't we make it rain when we need it?
BTW, I deny it.
Any and everything we do has an impact. Land use, water use, what we put into the air.
Surely you are not denying that we do these things?
Every action causes a ripple. The magnitude and direction is yet to be determined.
You don't agree that agricultural land has a different climate than what it replaced? How about cities? Dams? Aerosols in the air, soot on the ice? Etc?
Equivocating now Ian?....we are talking global change...not local...and don't go trying to explain the physics that connect butterfly wings to tsunamis on the other side of the earth.....there aren't any just like there is no back radiation...and no tropospheric hot spot.
