  Science News article: ‘Case closed’: 99.9% of scientists agree climate emergency caused by humans

  a news article has the headline of " ‘case closed’: 99.9% of scientists agree climate emergency caused by humans"; see https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/oct/19/case-closed-999-of-scientists-agree-climate-emergency-caused-by-humans .

  the article says in part the following.. 'the scientific consensus that humans are altering the climate has passed 99.9%, according to research that strengthens the case for global action at the cop26 summit in glasgow.. the degree of scientific certainty about the impact of greenhouse gases is now similar to the level of agreement on evolution and plate tectonics, the authors say, based on a survey of nearly 90,000 climate-related studies.

  this means there is practically no doubt among experts that burning fossil fuels, such as oil, gas, coal, peat and trees, is heating the planet and causing more extreme weather.. a previous survey in 2013 showed 97% of studies published between 1991 and 2012 supported the idea that human activities are altering earth’s climate.. this has been updated and expanded by the study by cornell university that shows the tiny minority of sceptical voices has diminished to almost nothing as evidence mounts of the link between fossil-fuel burning and climate disruption.. the latest survey of peer-reviewed literature published from 2012 to november 2020 was conducted in two stages.

  You might benefit from climate change if you live in high latitudes and you can now swim in the ocean without your penis disappearing thanks to warmer weather. But what if you already live in a place that reaches 50 degrees celcius during summer?

  On the topic of volcanoes, large eruptions have in the past, temporarily cooled the planet and have been responsible for famines, not because of co2, but all of the particles that prevent the sun from warming.

  No one has mentioned ice core samples, which are essentially a journal of atmospheric gases for the last million years.

  By the way, I'll give my post a thumbs down, just to get things moving.

  I have come to expect thumbs down on whatever topic it is I post on these days on this forum. Im pretty sure I know who never agrees with me but they will remain 'anonymous' .

  I dont think I deserved 2 thumbs down for simply commenting about a co2 chart, and then trying to comment in a respectful, non-alarmist way about climate change. But some people have their mind made up I guess.

  Just to raise a point you made Anonymous, heat waves have killed more Australians since 1890 than almost any other natural disaster, so , no, life isnt necessarily better because the world is getting hotter.

  Because covid took over the news, maybe some people have forgotten about our 2019- 20 bushfires, which was our worst bushfire year on record. It only cost the lives of 500 million animals- Im sure they'll bounce right back and enjoy life in a progressively hotter world.

  The hard part is knowing exactly what will occur because climate is a chaotic system. If a volcano spews co2, this will add a blip to the chart for sure, but it wouldnt equate to a steady rise in co2 over decades, which is what has happened.

  50 years is nothing in geological time, which, to me makes it all the more alarming if it is indeed human activity that has driven the increase. Even if humans are 50% to blame, thats still way out of the ordinary and something that should concern us.

  Tax on Unrealized Capital Gains!

  by Simon in

  so janet yellen, the us treasury secretary, thinks taxing unrealized capital gains would be a way for them to fund their runaway spending.. first, they claimed that the real cost of their nonsense spending was $0, so they were lying then or are lying now ("why not both?!").

  second, they claimed that money printing doesn't affect inflation, so why not just print the money instead?.

  third, the "for billionaires" is to get the feeble minded masses on board, those that live on benefits and vote democrat for more "free money", but the irs monitoring of $600 bank accounts is also apparently to target the ultra-wealthy as well.

  It would be interesting to see how this is implemented. Is it a one time tax, yearly, every 3 months?

  A one off slug to your unrealised gains based on their present values seems outrageous- its a bad enough feeling paying tax on realised gains.

  The article implies that only liquid assets will be targetted, are they after a slice of the crypto currency pie?

  Hybridous- its always the middle class that pay. The super rich get tax breaks and the super poor get handouts. Its the juicy middle class that get the bill.

  Charts that track CO2 show clearly a rise in levels since the 1950's. This corresponds to post war development, commercial airlines etc. CO2 levels are the highest they have been in 3 million years according ti a cnn report today.

  This rapid change is not normal, or natural. The only question is how bad the effects will be to the planet and life.

  If it does drive extreme weather events, it could become a sovereign risk to some countries before long due to the high costs of management.

  im in the midst of doing an audit of my online presence, and found that, shockingly, this account is still active.

  since there is no way to change the password that i can find, im curious if the account can just be outright deleted?.

  thanks.

  Censuring medicine and information; our new culture.

  'last night's flccc weekly update featured stories of families who fought in court to compel hospitals to give their loved ones ivermectin.

  that it has come to this is tragic.

  63 studies have now shown ivermectin’s efficacy in all stages of c19 disease.'.

  It doesnt matter how many CAPS you use, or how often you use an exclamation mark- it doesnt make what you say accurate.

  Another unfounded , ivermectin rant that wouldnt be complete without mention of Fauci and Trump, the CDC and unsubstantiated claims of payouts to doctors to keep it all quiet and let people die.

  Just like the O.P. that stated, ' 63 studies that prove ivermectins efficacy in all stages of treating covid19' , without any link at all to that claim, which is just a copy and paste of a twitter post.

  This is typical of the 'fact-checking' and 'research' that we've come to expect from people that have allowed political preferences and skepticism to become their delusion.

  Is it a cry for help because the world isnt giving you the attention you crave at the moment?

  Do you know of any elder that should not have been appointed?

  Plenty of elders with questionable morals, one was an affair with a sister he used to pick up for witnessing. Another I know was soliciting prostitutes. A lot of alcoholics.

  But the one that annoyed me the most was a stand- in C. O., who had a successful career as an architect, giving the Sunday talk on how wrong higher education is. I was ust shaking my head through the whole thing.

  at the moment there does not seem to be any place to flee to from covid mandates and restrictions.

  we are stuck like the first century christians in jerusalem.

  but jesus said when the disgusting thing would stand in the holy place, it was time to swiftly flee to the mountains.. will jehovah god open a path to security where we can be in safety?

  Anonymous, we have a recent example in history of letting a virus 'burn out', namely the spanish flu.

  The first wave was actually not terrible, maybe some people thought it had 'burned out' after that stage.

  The second wave that returned had mutated into a monster before it finally 'burned out' leaving 50- 100 million dead. India, was once again, hit badly

  Thats why everyone whining about how bad we have it because of lockdowns, and lets get guns and fight the government, arent learning from history, and, actually how fortunate we are to even have a vaccine to prevent a possible worse catastrophe.
