Man, that's unfortunate.

How in the hell will we ever get the Indians and Chinese to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions like America has done?

So then ash in the stratosphere and less sun didn't affect crops back when they were not stored for very long?

Ask what Joe Burrow thinks. I’m going with his answer.

I don't believe it. Sixty million years ago it was hotter.

Nutrients make plants grow....

Which produces more oxygen and uses more CO2.

Bet the study didn’t factor that in.

Not sure why all the downvotes, you can disagree with additional taxes and fines and whatnot regarding climate change and you can disagree with the source, but the earth is getting hotter and at some point in the future it will get colder. This has been happening since the beginning of time. From what I understand we are really at the end of an ice age and are warming up to normal. It is a little concerning for sure.

But when these massive algal blooms die in water systems, they result in significant oxygen consumption and result

That plot shows about a half a degree of warming in 40 years which is significant.

Except that the chart starts in 1979, a period of abnormally cold weather. Try running the numbers from the 1880’s, when we started having a decent coverage of temperature records, or even 1970 when we started getting satellite temp data.

Yes, well how much warmer?

The most places on earth warm and cool about 20 degrees every day. One degree of warming is practically imperceptible.

And by the way, this warming isn’t uniformly distributed, in location, in time, OR on the thermometer.

Most of the warming is happening on the lower end of the thermometer. In other words, it’s not getting as cold, but it’s also not getting any hotter. The average is hotter.
