Millions Evacuated After Catastrophic Flooding Hits China, Pakistan

Climate Change - the study of how Earth's climate changes depending on how much land is close enough to either pole to start a continent specific ice age. If Earth had two polar oceans, Earth would have no ice.

Global Warming - a total FRAUD that never had any scientific basis, as CO2 didn't warm anything in the past (per the ice cores) and isn't warming anything now (according to highly correlated satellite and balloon raw data showing precisely NO WARMING in the atmosphere despite rising CO2)

Bahahahaha!

 

[LaDexter]

Laugh all you want, but you don't have the intellect or the courage to answer the question

Why does one Earth polar circle, the Antarctic, have 9 times the ice of the other??

 

[LaDexter]

They won't answer a real science question, and they call me names like "insanely anti-science."

FRAUD is not science.

COWARDICE is being a DEMOCRAT

 

[LaDexter]

Show us those answers, parrot....

The other what?

The gain in ice is attributed to an increase in Antarctic snow accumulation, which began 10,000 years ago. Satellite data showed that the Antarctic ice had a net gain of 112 billion tons of ice per year from 1992 to 2001, but then slowed to 82 billion tons of ice per year during 2003 to 2008, according to the report, which was published in the Journal of Glaciology.

Funny, since Antarctic ice cores have way more than 10k years of data...\

Perhaps this is a better clue as to the age of the Antarctic ice age...

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Floods never happened until a few years ago.

The other what?

Joe Biden is that you??

In the 2008 VP debate, Biden said

"The polar ice cap (singular) is (singular) melting"

Palin should've responded...

"Gee, Joe, Earth actually has two polar ice caps, not one, and the other one, the Antarctic, the one with 90% of Earth ice, that ice is growing, and we went to court in 2007 and that is what the verdict was - Antarctic ice increasing"

but Palin, alas, was a dumbass....

Hey shit head the ice cores you are yammering about revealed 800,000 year of carbon it doesn't mean the ice is that old.

The other just confirms you are talking out your ass.

Temporal uncertainty of the EPICA 800,000-year series increases with core depth, but estimates indicate that it is usually less than 5% of the true age and is frequently much less than that. The most recent "EDC3" chronology is based on a snow accumulation and mechanical flow model combined with a set of independent age markers along the core, indicating either well-dated paleoclimatic records or insolation variations. See Parrenin et al. (2007) for more detail. The Vostok time scale is based on the the "GT4" chronology, derived in a similar fashion to "EDC3" with age constraints at 110 thousand and at 390 thousand years ago which are assumed to match known events in marine sediments. See Petit et al. (1999) for more detail.

Global warming has increased atmospheric water vapor levels by over 4% (warmer air holds more moisture). This results in heavier rainfalls (and snowfalls).....which causes increased flooding. Clinate scientists have been predicting this for many years and pointing to examples over the last decade.

The USA recently experienced torrential downpours and severe flooding in West Virginia, Las Vegas, Oklahoma, and before that in Dallas and other parts of Texas....and other places.
- US Flood List -
These are all being enhanced and made worse by global warming and the consequent higher water vapor levels in the air.

Now we are seeing major flooding in China, Pakistan and India. This pattern will continue and get much worse in the months and years to come. These are all examples of....
Global warming in action....right before our eyes
And this evidence of the reality and dangers of global warming and its consequent climate disruptions and changes will be very fresh in the public's mind when we head into the upcoming Presidential elections in November with Republican Presidential and Congressional candidates insanely denying that anything unusual is happening.

Over 150 Dead, Millions Evacuated After Catastrophic Flooding Hits China, Pakistan

Catastrophic floods have taken more than 150 lives in China and Pakistan this weekend after days of heavy rain. In China, 128 have been killed and another 42 people have been reported missing according to figures released by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, China.org.cn reports. A mudslide in Guizhou Province killed 23, state media told the BBC. Eight more people died in the city of Wuhan in Hubei Province when a section of a wall collapsed. About 18 inches of rain fell in Macheng, China, in the four days ending 8 a.m. local time on Monday, said weather.com meteorologist Chris Dolce.

The rain collapsed more than 40,000 houses and forced the evacuation of nearly 1.5 million people in 11 regions, mostly along the Yangtze River and its distributaries, China.org.cn reports, and nearly 600,000 people are in urgent need of basic living assistance. The rain has also destroyed more than 700,000 acres of crops, the Xinhua news agency repoorts. Floods and landslides are also affecting telecommunication and electricity facilities, halting or delaying traffic in some regions. The ministry estimated total economic losses of $5.73 billion. Vice Premier Wang Yang warned last month that there was a high possibility of floods in the Yangtze River and Huai River basins this year, which equate to a large swath of China's southern, central and eastern areas.

In Pakistan, heavy monsoon rains and flash floods have claimed at least 30 lives and washed away a mosque and several houses in Ursoon, an area of Chitral. Thirteen people are still missing in Chitral, the district’s deputy commissioner Usama Waraich told Gulf News, adding that authorities were evacuating some residents with more rain forecast Monday. The mayor of Chitral district, Maghfirat Shah said the flash flooding hit as people were offering up special Ramadan prayers at the mosque. Dozens of worshippers were swept away in the floodwaters, which destroyed the mosque and damaged several nearby houses and a security post. Afghan authorities also said they had recovered 13 bodies, including eight Pakistani soldiers, which had been swept over the border from Chitral into Afghanistan, Gulf News said.

Please tell us what a monsoon is, Chicken Little.

Wow that was meaningless. Btw the 90% you are talking about is fresh water ice not all earth's ice.

Freshwater makes up a very small fraction of all water on the planet. While nearly 70 percent of the world is covered by water, only 2.5 percent of it is fresh. The rest is saline and ocean-based. Even then, just 1 percent of ourfreshwater is easily accessible, with much of it trapped in glaciers and snowfields.
Sea ice is found in remote polar oceans. On average, sea ice covers about 25 million square kilometers (9,652,553 square miles) of the earth, or about two-and-a-half times the area of Canada.

One of the countless things you don't know.

 

[Crick]

Please tell us how monsoons have altered over the last 35 years Mr Weatherman.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

How much must we lower CO2 to end monsoons once and for all?

What does the lab work show?

 

[Weatherman2020]

Please tell us how monsoons have altered over the last 35 years Mr Weatherman.

Not my job to prove the OP isn't full of shit. I don't perform miracles.

Indian Monsoons Are Becoming More Extreme

Yeah, it is your job.
