Only question I asked was about nuclear?Sure ask away.
Standard questions.
1. What should the global mean temperature be if we are too high?
2. what should the CO2 ppm be if we are currently too high?
Also the bell curve isn't application to non standardized distribution models. We visit higher latitudes regularly. From Norway to Canada.
5-10years is a statistical anomaly on both geological and astronomical timescales.
Standard questions you could look up from a credible source, but better to go like the media, gotcha style.
The blue line represents global surface temperature reconstructed over the last 2,000 years using proxy data from tree rings, corals, and ice cores.[1] The red line shows direct surface temperature measurements since 1880. Wikipedia.
Even accounts for your medieval ice age.
Same for the CO2, try here https://www.co2levels.org/
Standard distribution, non standard. Doesn’t matter which way it’s skewed, and climate change would be skewing the data. It’s the point that records at either end, say cold or hot are being shattered there. “Normally” they’d over time be spread across.
Secondly records of extremes don’t usually get smashed by multiples of standard deviations. E.g. Lismore 2022, +2m over the record.
And you support me by timescales point. It’s not meant to change so dramatically in such short time. 5 years is my prediction. Oceans have gone over the top because the can’t disperse the heat, only increase in temp now. Means higher rainfalls.
Anyway I didn’t come to debate or be baited. Why is this the only science that every dumb arse (not you) can argue against?
Fossil fuel companies compiled reports in the 70s stating that the CO2 from emissions would impact the climate. If you want I’ll find one, I do have on another computer.
The scientists presented the data in the least dramatic way, and they regret it now, because it’ll be 2-3 degrees in my life time.
Heat waves of 30+ degrees in the Antarctic don’t raise attention because it only gets to -20. Heat waves in the northern Nordic regions that get to 20 don’t get attention but beating a record by 8 degrees, is alarming.
The 2019-20 fires burnt forests never burnt in plus 10000 years.
So anecdotally in the 8 years I’ve been back in the northern rivers I’ve experienced two 1:100 year floods, witnessed ancient rainforests burnt for the first time, seen the lowest and the highest annual rainfall records smashed, I sort of go hmmm seems a bit out.
The sea ice in Antarctica is two years running at lowest recorded. The global ocean temp follows too as hottest. Clusters of hot years, and on and on.
Of all the technologies is amazing automobiles have improved superficially over time. If it was IT we’d be celebrating the floppy disc in a decade or two.
Anyway your welcome to your opinions and me mine.
I’m planned for 90 days independence because when shit hits the fan it’s going to be either mad max anarchy or totalitarian slavery. Don’t expect the government to help which reminds me.
Why is the Oz government report on the security implications of climate change deemed top secret? Because regardless of politics they know we’re fucked, and they think money will save them.
I could go on, but I’m a scientist, an ecologist, fascinated by chaos theory, and huge systems; a surfer hence extreme weather nerd.
I can’t understand why the youth haven’t rebelled, where are the guillotines, it’s perplexing.
We’re lucky to have lived through a goldilocks period for the planet and even of human peace, but history states this is not normal. The Aborigines have witnessed and recorded in spoken lore, huge sea level changes, a possibly a huge tsunami in their occupation of Australia. We or our grand children will witness similar but on a never recorded timescale.
I’d even consider myself a fence sitter on climate change It’s going to be way worse that we imagine
