Canada reports worst wildfire season on record — and there's more to come this fall

[shtferbrains]

60% of the world is just hopeing to see the light come on ever time they hit the switch.

A lage portion haven't got there yet.

They are more than happy to do all the dirty work producing all the crap we need to virtuously reduce emissions. Coal will be the preferred fuel because it's local and cheap.

The really depressing thing about this ridiculous post, is that two other posters apparently agreed with it enough to like it.
Three people completely ignorant of history.
Just within recorded history, we have examples of extreme natural climate change which humans have managed to survive and thrive through. During the transition from the medieval warm period to the little ice age, glaciers in the Alps were advancing so fast they covered farms within a generation.
The temperature and precipitation extremes within the little ice age make the modern era look like a cakewalk.
And that's just one era. Humanity has survived innumerable cases of catastrophic and beneficial climate change. And in all previous instances, we managed to do so without the benefit of cheap plentiful reliable fossil fuel energy.

Well two of them are the same fellow

Significant human caused climate change is a given at 420 ppm of CO2. 90% of the past warming has gone into the oceans.

Adaptation and mitigation are both on the table.

The question is will we reduce our emissions in time to stop runaway irreversible catastrophic climate change? Because if we don't the cost and disruption will be extreme.

Extreme forest fire losses were evident in Ft McMuuray 2016, Lytton 2021 and now across the country in 2023.

The sooner we transition away and reduce fossil fuel emissions the better.

In the case of Alberta and Saskatchewan the difference in a net zero electricity grid is 2035 vs 2050. 15 years. But both provinces are committed to reducing emissions.

Yawn, you might as well write for the UN or something. Your propaganda is tiresome. So is your lack of intellect and critical thinking.

Nobody is transitioning to anything but what we have been using for 150 yrs. In fact its going to accelerate by 15-20m bbl per day.

And if CO2 was responsible for fires, the earth would have be burning for 100m years before humans got here when levels were 5 times what they are.

You are lost.

Trumps still President and Covid will be gone after the election?

Your record of predictions speak for themselves! LOL

what about the climate predictions made 30 or 40 years ago ? how many of them came true ? garbage same as now , the ones that preach at us are the worst poluters themselves , ride a bike while i fly around the world in my private plane ! clearly they dont believe the nonsense themselves

During Covid I stayed home & did zoom meetings to save Grandma.

During climate change, why aren’t politicians staying home & doing zoom meetings to save the planet?

Yeah the one can’t get off of reminding everyone about cash advances, one crabs about Moe, and the other climate change. If they aren’t the same individual they probably have tea together.

And crumpets, don't forget crumpets, you can't beat a big slice of baloney and hot sauce on a crumpet.
I'm sure all with British ancestry just fainted.
