Let's check into actual climate science

[Robert W]

Poland has sent us climate scientists. Let's check out what this scientist says.
After watching this short video, are you worried? If you are, why?

Actual climate science...

I will get a dog when it worries me.

Climate anxiety?

LOL.....They would have shit themselves today.....103 here.

To the thread title, yes, let's do that.

Can we alter the climate? Let's see. Ask any general aviation pilot what happens when he or she flies over a parcel of bare ground as opposed to flying over a parcel of land with trees or grass when the sun is shining. I surprised my passenger once while when flying over fields of growing corn at about 2500 feet I noticed a narrow gravel road running between the green fields. I informed him that we were going feel a substantial upward bump as we passed over that threadlike line of yellow 2500 feet below. As the Cessna 150 suddenly lurched upward his eyes grew large with surprise at the power of the sudden jolt. "What was that?" he queried.

"That was a thermal current created by heat rising from that gravel road", I responded. He was even more surprised when I told him that on a windless day that same thermal could be felt at even higher altitudes. Such thermals, if large enough, can drive rain clouds away from the area. Such is the power of man to alter the weather and even the climate.

Hard to ratify something which cannot be defined , let alone checked .

Yes, we pilots spend a good amount of time noticing what you speak of. As to can we alter climate, we can see it change. It seems you would cure climate by flying above it.

I would like to see of more permanent vegetation would alter the climate is a positive way.

I posted how to do it using trees. But we don't have to limit it to trees as you mention.

Proof by you we do are not a Democracy at all.

Sure, let's go by what IPCC tells us.

. Average annual GHG emissionsduring 2010–2019 were higher than in any previous decade on record, while the rate of growth between 2010 and2019 (1.3% yr-1) was lower than that between 2000 and 2009 (2.1% yr-1). In 2019, approximately 79% of global GHG

The report says things got better. Now will you take a needed nap and stop emitting pollution?

The rate of growth was lower, the levels were still rising and still are.

YES, folks, he can read. HE wanted me to use IPCC and when I did he admits the rate of growth is lower. How about that confession?

Jesus, Robert. When you first appeared in this forum, I thought there was hope for you. That hope gets dimmer and dimmer with every single post.

Grass for the short term, trees for the long term.

You understand that lower growth is still growth; that things are still getting worse?

Things improved today when Biden said he quit. No mas.
