Once the Coronavirus "pandemic" (not epidemic) starts to lose its 24/7 news appeal, the fake news will return to "Climate Change" as the only remaining campaign issue for the Democrats in the upcoming election. Unlike fact-based issues like the economy, trade deals, immigration and foreign policy, Climate Change is a matter of conjecture and belief. After all, a consensus of left-wing "scientists" can't possibly be wrong!
Scientists aren't left or right wing. Left and right wingers attach themselves to the scientists who say what they want to hear.
I just tried hard to understand some of the arguments in another climate change thread, and unfortunately it is way over my head, so I am going to trust the vast majority of scientific analysis that says C02 has rapidly increased global warming, which has caused definite climate changes around the globe.
Germany had such a mild winter that they can't make Ice Wine this year. There was no hard freeze to concentrate the sugar in the grapes.
Can we have a mild winter without being sure that calamity is going to befall us? Sure. But when all over the globe there was a mild winter, it kinda makes you wonder if there is something to this.
It's really not hard to understand:
Imagine if you had two very large containers. One was filled with just plain air and the other was filled with a mixture of air and CO2.
Both containers were heated to some high temperature and let cool back down to room temperature.
Do you believe that it would take the same amount of time for both containers to return to room temperature?
Do you think that the container with the mixture may take longer to return to room temperature?
That's all there really is to climate change: A carbon impregnated atmosphere retains heat more that a non-carbon impregnated atmosphere.
It's really that simple. Scientist can measure the amount of carbon in the air and therefore tell how much heat retention there will be. Once that's determined they can theorize fairly accurately what the affects on the climate will be.
