Climate change will knock one-third off world economy, study shows

[chuckChuck]

This may indeed be a wetter year for many but the last 5 years were not.

What caused the droughts back in the 70s and 80s in our area of manitoba mr agrisilly ? old guy here talks about seeding a crop of wheat got one rain after seeding and not another drop until harvest , about 2 small square bales of straw per acre , never been anywhere close to that dry since , was it fossil fuels then ?

[chuckChuck]

Likely a combination of natural variabilty and human caused climate change which is certainly at play now. Maybe less so in the 1980s.

It’s called weather….

[cropgrower]

lots of southern MB covered in snow now on may 25 ! we were told growing season would be getting longer 10 years ago ,what a load of BS that was

[cropgrower]

is that what you call C change aggy ? pic sent to me by friend , thankfully we missed the white stuff

So one later May snowstorm out of thirty years tells the story of climate?

Crop you seem to have trouble grasping the difference between climate and weather!

No surprise there.

[cropgrower]

no i believe in what i see not fairy tales from the paid off so called experts

[chuckChuck]

So all science and evidence is fairy tales and the experts are all wrong?

How would one snow storm tell you anything about the climate over 30 years Crop?

Are you really this clueless? I think we already know the answer.

[cropgrower]

No the clueless ones are the ones that believe paying a carbon tax will change the weather

[chuckChuck]

No the carbon tax is designed to reduce CO2 emissions and reducing CO2 will reduce human caused climate change as measured over decades.

Weather is what happens day to day week to week. Nobody can change the short term weather.

Nor the non thinking of some of the climate change denial dimwits.

[cropgrower]

thats only playing with words to confuse the simpletons , and you mr agrisilly are simple enough to fall for the propaganda

[shtferbrains]

Have to agree with you on that one Chuck.
The short term weather seems to have doused all those predictions of a severer fire season due to climate change.

Seems the only fire of any significance is at Fort Nelson but they can't seem to get any pictures of fire or even smoke for about the last 2 weeks?

From the people's news at the CBC;

Fort Nelson, B.C., wildfire evacuees allowed to return home starting Monday

Things aren't quite as bad as first reported;

"The NRRM has previously said that 10 properties in Fort Nelson were damaged by the Parker Lake blaze, and four homes were destroyed, as the fire spread on May 10.

In an update on Sunday, the Fort Nelson First Nation says that while it didn't lose homes to the fire, some areas that were culturally significant have been damaged."

I read somewhere we normally have about 800 fires.
Might not be as bad as predicted?

[furrowtickler]

And subsoil moisture continues to be replenished within just mere weeks of ,” we all gonna die from drought” due to excessive carbon blah blah blah

[chuckChuck]

Who said anybody dies of drought in Canada? They certainly do die of drought in Africa.

Some farms have had seven years of drought and must be struggling. But one wetter May and everything is fixed?

No need to worry about hotter and drier summers again?
