They must be in an absolute panic since there is an unprecedented temperature that has been recorded.
Cuba is to the freezing point.

Cuba experienced its coldest temperature on record on February 3 when the mercury dropped to zero degrees Celsius, an unprecedented event for the Caribbean island nation that comes as it faces an acute energy crisis triggered by dwindling oil supplies and mounting US pressure following the capture of Venezuela's president Nicolas Maduro.
The national weather service reported that freezing conditions were observed at a monitoring station in the northern province of Matanzas, surpassing the island's previous coldest reading of 0.6°C recorded three decades earlier at a different location, according to Cuba's Institute of Meteorology (Insmet).
"[The station] registered a value of 0°C, reaching freezing point for the first time on Cuban territory and setting a new national record," Insmet said on its Facebook page.

Right there is your proof.
Climate change is so real, it is now freezing in Cuba.

I gotta say I'm really disappointed we never got the global warming we were promised. I was looking forward to 10 month long golf seasons here in the midwest and no more ice and snow. They told us the midwest was going to be the next south florida. And here I am 30 years later buried in a a foot and a half of snow that wont be melting anytime soon. When is the global warming going to kick in?

Well, Cuba is freezing because of global warming. It goes like this:
Global warming in summer makes the Gulf hotter.
Warm Gulf water makes the fish and dolphins sweat more.
Their sweat rises to the surface and into the air during winter.
That extra moisture in winter = more snow.
The snow lands in Cuba and makes them cold.
See how easy that is.

Fun fact! The world has been in a "warming stage" since the last documented "global cooling period" some 500ish years ago. You know, we actually had written records back then. Benjamin Franklin even wrote of a warming climate, and it had nothing to do with "man-made" garbage.
Do we need to clean our act up and take better care of our oceans specially? Absolutely. But look at INDIA and CHINA for that. Those two nations are collectively producing two thirds of the world's pollution. And don't lecture me about cow farts when the US has some of the most "green" cattle farming processes on earth, while we're buying beef from South American countries that bulldoze tens of thousands of acres of pristine rain forests for pasture land.
Also, preliminary empirical data suggests that we are actually beginning to enter yet another "cooling period". This is all cyclical, and man has only a negligible impact on the world's health when we actually attempt to mitigate our damages. And whoever decided that CO2 was a pollution? Last I checked, that's what plants breathe. During the Cretacious Thermal Maximum, plants that would be comparable to today's "house plants" thrived so well that they grew to over 100 feet tall. Over 1000PPM of CO2 led to an unprecedented green and lush globe. It would have been an absolute spectacle to behold.
The above ^^^ is a rendering of how ANTARCTICA likely looked, some 90 million years ago. Fricking paradise, minus the heron-sized mosquitoes and carnivorous inhabitants the size of school buses.

Maybe in terms of impacts on the actual climate, but we have significant impacts on the health of global water supplies and air quality.

How does this melt the ice caps so everything below I10 is under water.
I've been waiting on that one to happen for a while now.

it's been in the 60s in denver since october. the trees started budding again early december it was so warm. lowest snow totals on record

There isn't a single person on here that denies climate change that is also saying to go dump pollutants in our drinking water.
These aren't the same thing at all. But you are retarded.

Hey David.
quote:
The lowest total snowfall for a winter season in Denver history was 21.3 inches, recorded during the 1888-1889 season.
quote:
Record Dry Streak: 232 consecutive days without snow, recorded in 1887 and again in 2021.
Almost as if these things are cyclical.

United States industrial activities continuously contribute toxic pollutants and chemicals to water systems and air.
Are Americans the only segment of the global population to pollute? Obviously not.

Back this up with data and compare to other nations. Or… just admit that “we” aren’t the problem.

And I clearly said that we needed to specifically take care of our waters better, and where the majority of the blame for not doing so lies.
We can certainly do better, and i believe that we have, particularly the USA. There was no point remaining in the PCA when we were the nation that cut our carbon footprint by the most, by far, still being lectured by other nations that actually praised China for only increasing their emissions by 26% when a 28% increase was predicted.
They fined us for that crap. For lowering our emissions. While they praised China for a 26% increase. Think about that.

Feel free to do your own research. I'm not trying to compete against strangers in faraway lands to win or lose the biggest polluter Olympics.
If you are satisfied with the health of your water supply, wonderful. I would prefer to have fewer forever chemicals in my water supply, even in China's air quality is worse than the air quality here.

Yeah, but humans start having problems as we get over 700ppm.
I made a similar point to yours at a carbon sequestration meeting not long ago after some guy came up and claimed we needed CCS to save us from the rise in CO2 since it's risen from ~200ppm in the 1800s to just over 400ppm today.
I rebutted him with a quick explanation of the Carbon Cycle and how 150ppm-200ppm is basically the top of the starvation range for most plants while 400ppm-800ppm is the suboptimal range. When I explained that what this means is that as there is more CO2, plants will grow bigger, faster and produce more, I could swear I saw light bulbs turn on over a lot of heads (it's primarily a farming and logging area).

You know.. if we go back to the prehistoric times with no ice caps... the ocean would damn near be at my door. Talk about instant appreciation.
