Maybe the heat will miraculously go away through some yet undetermined mechanism.

Like the sun? You do know the temperature has been going down, don'tcha?

the warming trend has STOPPED at least in the past few years


Right. Maybe it just stopped for some reason.


Why does your chart have 2019 as the warmest year ever even though we do not yet have the measurements?

Yeah... let's wrap it with seemingly practical anecdotal evidence (even if it obviously make no sense whatsoever).
Plus anyway.... it goes against my other personal beliefs. And the other cultists are with me.
It was sooo easy to rationalize away....


Please explain to me what about feeling consistently cold for 20 years every winter is subjective. I'm just a real person telling you how the weather really feels every year. I don't have to doctor stats, fudge number, or push an agenda. I just have to stop-feeling-fucking-cold.

The problem with globalists is the same problem with socialists, they don't give fuck about the individual pointing out their ideals don't match up with people's reality.

This is the best i can find for the USA carbon use.

And keep in mind it’s per capita! China’s actual carbon use is twice all of the USA. That little bubble is actually much larger than ours.
For some reason there aren’t any charts I found that go past 2014. Yet a lot of renewables have been added in the past five years. Could there be a coverup? Perhaps our carbon use has dropped more significantly than predicted.

I saw a meme about a week and a half ago saying to brace ourselves for the idiot climate change deniers when the arctic blast occurs now. Nevermind that it's been unseasonably warm for weeks - without those of us in the reality based world even trying to say it was becasue of global warming.

It's been decades since Chicago had the kind of winters we had when I was a kid. Back then there were people that would flood their back yards to make an ice skating rink, that would last for several weeks.

And this is different from idiot climate change promoters coming out of woodwork whenever a heat wave occurs exactly how?

No kidding. Every fucking hurricane, rain storm, cold snap, heat wave, "polar vortex" and blizzard is blamed on climate change. The level of projection coming from the political left never ceases to amaze me.

And I'd say thank goodness! Most people hate the cold and it's much more threatening to life and growth than heat.

"For the year-to-date, the contiguous U.S. temperature was 55.5°F, 0.5°F above average, and ranked in the warmest third of the January–October record."

Now add in a relatively cold winter that is currently expected and has started with the current Arctic blast and the year will likely end somewhere between 3rd and 5th place. For the US, so where's the hockey stick? It's NOT because the warming trend HAS STOPPED.

Ohhhh, the weather!

Let's have the "definition of climate" debate!

The dictionary defines climate as the composite or generally prevailing weather conditions of a region, as temperature, air pressure, humidity, precipitation, sunshine, cloudiness, and winds, throughout the year, averaged over a series of years.

So climate is the history of weather.

Like the weather the climate is changing all of the time. We have gone through ice ages and warm periods much warmer than now. During the warm periods life prospered. During the cold periods life suffered. Where would you rather live in an arctic tundra or a tropical rainforest?

It's fucking cold in Arizona. I guess not even the desert can help GW. I'll have to move to the islands to keep Global Warming from freezing my ass four months of the year.

Germany forced to rely on non-renewable energy after cold snap froze renewables

@zzyzzx,

this is live CO2 emission map: https://www.electricitymap.org/ranking

Germany with its "renewable" and "green" electricity production emits tons more CO2 than France, which uses nucular. Green energy is bad for environment....

Maybe we should aggressively increase C02 output. Seriously.

Volcanos going off all over the world in Indonesia, Iceland, Sicily, Central America. The stuff in the atmosphere is going to cause cooling for a few years.

The net effect of this false premise may well be that environmentalists and main-stream public scientists will look like fools by the end of this decade.

Political types, whether they be office holders or "scientists" or "journalists," do not care if their lies are discovered after they are elected or have cashed the checks. They just expect forgiveness and move on to the next lie.

At CERN they proved that cosmic rays can cause cloud formation.
This was huge, clouds of course vastly affect earth temperatures, as you have no doubt experienced at the beach.
The significance is that cosmic rays emitted by the sun vary.
People always think that the sun is like a giant lightbulb with a constant energy output.
But, it’s not.
I have an old National Geographic from the 70’s about the Northern Hemisphere Cooling which caused drought in the Southern Hemisphere, and grain harvest failure and potential world starvation.

Interesting that nobody talks about the potential huge grain harvests from Canada and Russia if the earth ever warms up. Today vast areas of earth are too cold to farm.

Greenland, too. Greenland was arable during the Medieval Warm Period when the Vikings settled the coasts. This was before cooling glaciered the land and drove them out.

The previous sun cycles caused 'global warming' on Mars and Jupiter's moons also. And temps are dropping there also. But there aren't any SUVs on Mars to blame, so the Greenies ignored that. Can't admit that AGW is total bullshit.

They also saw this writing on the wall and so changed their tune to 'climate change', which can mean anything. Guy pissed out of his window in downtown SF and you get the spray down on the sidewalk, that is technically climate change too!


Green was COVID 1.0 - an excuse to justify massive changes to empower centralized control over people's lives. Scratch the surface and I think most will realize the Green/COVID shit is an excuse for the control, which is really what they want.

You hear it mentioned in passing sometimes, when someone objects that not all effects of global warming are bad.

It's also interesting that both countries have a lot of oil, and so a motive to sell that oil and get not only money, but a more hospitable climate for themselves.

That sounds like the theme to a James Bond movie. Some evil Polar Alliance conspires to build oil-fired power plants to supply electricity for mandated electric cars, as a back end way to carbonize the atmosphere and warm the planet for a sinister northern land speculation scheme.

Canadian real estate might actually be a good idea long term. They have vast amounts of water and land. Just too cold.

Have to be fair. Both are good jokes. Use the strikethrough or del tag if you edit a quote though, in my opinion. You did all caps so it was obvious, but one word can change the meaning of what someone says and they may not agree with the change. It has been happening recently...

Canadians won't be able to handle this. Already 90% of their population lives within 100 miles of the southern border with the US. Where are they going to go?

Snow will cover houses and not melt much in the 'summer'. Roofs will collapse. Agriculture will collapse.

They have will have like 40 million ppl to relocate. Where?


Nah, there’s no way it gets as bad as Alaska, and even that place is livable. And arable! For some crops. Potatoes and cabbages do best, because of all the nonstop daylight in the summer. Forget your corn, not gonna get much yield. Barley might work. Wheat is going to be a hard pass. Vegetables can be grown with good yields provided you don’t miss the planting window.

And animals can be raised in places that are even harsher!

But you’ll want insulation in your house.

You can grow soft wheat way north, as in Ireland, which has a latitude about mid-Canada.

Then you get crumbly bread, like Irish soda bread, but it's just as nutritious.
