Don’t tell me this means it’s only going to get hotter and drier. I’m sick of this heat.

we are dumping carbon into the air and cutting down trees. no matter the impact it is more than if we were not doing that. so it is in our best interest to know whether we can actually do anything about it, and to predict the impact of the overall change as accurately and as soon as we can.

we have been in an ages long climatologically stable period. if that were to end we would really see some severe impact. and if, in some ways our activities are helping making it unstable (affecting the ocean currents for example) thats really the only thing we CAN do anything about

these assholes also said we were supposed to have a bad arse winter last year and it ended up being the worst one the western slope of Colorado has seen, snowpack and temperature wise, since they opened Vail for skiing. And the check is still coming due with all the fires and drought CO is experiencing.

Guess this means ill be rocking flip flops in February again.

Wait, so the last time it happened was 1877, which is prior to the industrial age, yet this time this one is caused by man made global warming?

Ryan plays a good character. Sometimes the alarmism gets to be too much even for him and he breaks that character.

ETA: This is some of his best work.

This is actually false. The earth has increased plant biomass lately
The Earth now has more trees than 35 years ago. It’s has gained the square mile equivalent of a combined Alaska and Texas

I agree with this, but the models haven’t been even remotely close to accurate yet. They have actually been so far off that they lose substantial credibility and anyone who takes them seriously now and calls for massive economic hardships to appease them is doing so foolishly.

If it has been ages long, what makes you think we have any control over it?

How are we impacting the ocean currents?

This is why they say climate change now.


Because the most recent storm needed the cooling to happen and not warming.

The commie left somehow got assigned the environment when they handed out issues for us to hate each other over. It’s girlie to care about the climate or to not want people shitting all over your living space (earth.)

from the study you linked, which you apparently didnt read
quote:

However all the tree cover data comes with an important caveat: tree cover is not necessarily forest cover.
quote:

“The results of this study reflect a human-dominated Earth system,” the researchers write. “Direct human action on landscapes is found over large areas on every continent, from intensification and extensification of agriculture to increases in forestry and urban land uses, with implications for the maintenance of ecosystem services.”
quote:

Overall, the study found that tree cover loss in the tropics was outweighed by tree cover gain in subtropical, temperate, boreal, and polar regions. Tree cover gain is being driven by agricultural abandonment in parts of Europe, Asia, and North America; warming temperatures that are enabling forests to move poleward; and China’s massive-tree planting program. Tree cover is also increasing globally in montane areas.
quote:

However all the tree cover data comes with an important caveat: tree cover is not necessarily forest cover. Industrial timber plantations, mature oil palm estates, and other non-natural “planted forests” quality as tree cover. For example, cutting down a 100-hectare tract of primary forest and replacing it with a 100-hectare palm plantation will show up in the data as no net change in forest cover: the 100-hectare loss is perfectly offset by the 100-hectare gain in tree cover. Yet, that activity would be counted as “deforestation” by FAO. Therefore tree cover loss does not directly translate to “deforestation” in all cases. Nonetheless, establishing a record of change in land cover will enable researchers to eventually distinguish between different types of activities. And the data in the current study does offer insights when there is a change between vegetation types.
quote:

That “greening” however masks the ecological impacts of replacing diverse natural landscapes with monoculture crops. So while Earth may presently have more trees than 35 years ago, the study confirms that some of its most productive and biodiverse biomes — especially tropical forests and savannas — are significantly more damaged and degraded, reducing their resilience and capacity to afford ecosystem services.

theres a lot more in there, you should read it
