Climate change making incoming B.C. heat up to 5 times more likely: scientists
Red this article today on Castanet. "https://www.castanet.net/news/BC/426594 ... scientists"
This may or may not be true. Politics and financial gain has entered the picture. But is it really caused by humans? Maybe someone here can explain what the mechanism was that started the earth warming up around twenty thousand years ago. The mechanism that ended the ice age and had the energy in the atmosphere to melt the enormous ice sheets on the planet. Here in Canada it was the Cordilleran and Laurentide ice sheets that were kilometers thick and covered all of Canada and parts of the northern USA.
The ice was pretty well gone around 10,000 years ago with the exception of the glaciers in the mountains which are the remnants of those massive ice sheets. It is said that the earth is still rebounding back up from the weight of the ice. There is evidence of the glacial meltwater and ice sheets everywhere. Nick Zentner on Youtube shows how the land was changed dramatically because of this.
So my question is, how do we know that mechanism that warmed the planet, that process that did that ,is not still happening today? Apparently the planet has been warmer previously with lower CO2. How too can humans have made this kind of change in only around a hundred years out of billions. Who also believes that the climate must stay exactly the same in a static unchanging way when there is evidence everywhere that it is fluid and changes constantly, sometime rapidly in Geological time. Does anyone know with certainty how the last ice age ended? And is the process still not happening today? If not, that means the man made climate change is a theory, in my opinion.

I suspect this planet hasn’t reached the furthest point away from last ice age.

Of course these fake warning all just to warm up people to the idea something is happening when it isn't. Especially when they lack any definition or evidence. Is this really a product of science? Or a product of models used by federal meteorologists?
The same thing was said in the UK. Of course, temperature patterns are different in every part of the world, yet they parrot the same simplistic warning everywhere. Random weather is natural, and global warming is a very tiny amount in comparison to what local temperatures can naturally fluctuate. Don't fall for the stupidity.
https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-48838698
Five time more likely heatwaves was apparently an old news item back in 2019. So why repeat it? Because Stefan Labbé the extremist journalist wants more hits and when he runs out of new things to say, repeat the old things.
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02071-z
Anyways, I am glad to hear good weather is 5x more likely, but 5x more likely than what? ;-) Just like the summers I used to enjoy.
This fake-alert also comes at a time when El Nino is ramping back up and global temperatures are 'expected' to temporarily rise as they usually do with ocean circulation currents.
This is an attempt to fool people in to believing something beyond nature is affecting millions of people, when they themselves are guessing. It appears as though media has obliged themselves for money to fill the news with this garbage.

And when it does then the pendulum swings the other way. We start cooling off.
Crank up the coal and gas stoves. Oh, we don't have them, they're trashed.
And we all freeze our butts off.

Well the people who do the science part say it's happening and they actually know what they're talking about. Yes. Our activities are accelerating climate change at a rate we can't keep up with.Mark5 wrote: ↑May 13th, 2023, 11:01 am Red this article today on Castanet.

Please tell us what effect extermination of all humans and human activities would have on global temperatures.
Just the number, please. Use your science.

"There is no evidence that Plymouth Rock was originally found at sea level. Experts say it is not a useful landmark for measuring sea level changes. Also, global sea levels are rising at an increasing rate. Hence, we have marked this claim false."
Also
"Regardless, the rock has not been "in the exact same spot" since that time, she told USA TODAY. It has been broken and moved.
The top part of the rock was broken off in 1774 and put on display in the town square and then outside Pilgrim Hall Museum. That piece wasn't reunited with the base of the rock until 1880. Both pieces were moved to their current location when the Plymouth waterfront was renovated in 1920, Curtin said."
So it's not even in it's original location!
