World’s top climate scientists expect global heating to blast past 1.5C target

You can see where the tides and waves stop, that’s where the green starts, I guess it doesn’t fit chuckroach’s propaganda.

Sure is a lot more people living on that sand bar in the past 100 yrs. For people who watch the sea every day, thye dont seem too concerned. Sort of the same as chucks hero Gates and Obama who have multiple seas side homes.

Ohhh chuck give up already and get to work

What if he is already at work? Maybe this is his work?
Definitely not a results based compensation package.

Liberals pay well to spread misinformation

Isnt that a strange coincidence. A solar storm, pink sky aurora, GPS and cell coverage knocked for a loop and then a few dozen spontaneous fires kick off all located in the northern oil areas in Ab and BC.

Sounds like another maui attack.

Good job A5 you are starting to understand climate vs weather! 30 years equals climate.

And that still doesn't change the remarkable last 5 years on the prairies that have been getting drier which contradicts your arm chair opinion that we are getting wetter.

You just finished lecturing me that climate is measured over 30 years.
Then you contradict yourself by claiming once again that five dry years in the near desert palliser triangle is evidence of climate change.

Have you ever considered that perhaps debating wasn't the best career choice for someone with your lack of skill set?

[chuckChuck]

I never said that 5 years is the measure of climate. Did I?

But it doesn't matter how long or how short of time span you look at, you deny that CO2 and other greenhouse gases cause climate change.

And in fact you say more CO2 is going to be good for us?

So which scientific organization is recommending we increase CO2 emissions to make the world a better place?

We are waiting A5! If you so sure you are right there must be some science to back you up? Right?

I will be honest, I glanced at the original post and I haven’t read any responses. Time is short this time of year. My only thought is that if you are a true believer you must have always expected the average temperature increase to surpass 1.5 degrees over pre industrial levels(1850, as earth exited the little ice age). Let’s be realistic, countries like China and India(most populous countries on earth) are not cutting back emissions, in fact their emissions are increasing as they increase coal consumption year over year. Daily consumption worldwide of oil is in the 100 million barrels a day range. Governments spending and taxing their populous into lower standards of living won’t change this trajectory. Plan for the future, spend and research on adaptation!!

The cost of doing nothing will be much higher that will be paid for by future generations. Out of control climate change is not an option. And that's where we are headed unless we reduce carbon emissions. Its a long transition.

Wait until chuck finds out how much more oil the world will use once AI and automation take hold.

[shtferbrains]

Sure A5! We are not going to take your made up armchair opinions as fact!

The last 5 years there has been a serious precipitation deficit in many areas of the prairies along with record forest fires and heat.

You have a little problem with facts yourself Chuck.

What happened in 2020?
Seemed to be a shortage of arsonists during the covid lockdowns?

Firefighters must have been a small collection of superheroes?

Enough with the “out of control b/s” already . Do you actually believe China , India and most developing country care?
give your head a shake and get to work man .
Absolute fact that most of the fires the past few years have been started by climate extremists .
ya it’s dry in some areas, but these wackos are exemplifying this natural phenomenon ffs.

[furrowtickler]

Then there is the actual starting point to all of this .
no one I have seen here is a climate change denier, not one that I have seen . Most are climate change skeptics, and if that drives you crazy, well that’s your mental issue .

[chuckChuck]

Just a skeptic not a denier? Progress then?

Except many of you seem to side with A5 who says more CO2 will be good for us! That is not skepticism that is blatant denial and stupidity!

All the scientists are wrong and there is nothing to worry about? Easy to say but much harder to prove unless you are a dimwit.

Its a slow moving disaster and most people can only worry about paying the bills this month.

Except that we are leaving a really big bill for future generations.

We are back into fire season and the smoke is already causing hardship along with all the people who are directly threatened.

2023 was record year for forest fires in Canada.

The science says we are heading for more extreme fires seasons like 2023. But since the scientists are all wrong there is nothing to worry about?

Pass the koolaid Jim!

”A big bill for future generations”? You mean the $1.33 trillion in federal debt in Canada? Of which over half has been added since Justin Trudeau has been elected!!! Has this additional debt made life more affordable in Canada? Is our health system more accessible? Our military better funded? Can young families afford a home? The answer is no to these questions. Government debt is nothing but deferred tax increases!!
