The fossil fuel industry has its tendrils in so many aspects of modern civilisation, and in every government around the world. Factor in the huge disinformation and obfuscation campaigns they have run over the last 3 decades to poison the discourse in the public domain, and we arrive at the extremely dangerous result of the current situation. Shell has had drilling plans since 10+ years ago for when the arctic *no longer has any ice at all*... If humans are still drilling for more oil to burn when the arctic no longer has any ice, we have absolutely no chance at all. It is indescribably insane and is an ultimate example of the issue with commercial interests being allowed to pursue value for their investors regardless of the public interest and at huge detriment (and inevitable death and violence) to everyone and everything else.

Well, the science isn't political. But all the proposed solutions are. And some of them might work. But some are extremely unlikely to work and are just a waste of (often taxpayers') money. Some are just virtue signaling for proflt (companies claiming they're "green"). Some are outright scams (the recent explosion of "green" scams that crowdfund tons of money and then produce nothing or smth completely useless). Some solutions are so drastic that they'd cause mass unemployment, poverty, and starvation. And some people propose reducing the human population by mass genocides, sterilization programs, and draconian laws on family planning. So this is why it's highly political and controversial topic. Because everything we can do about it is highly political and controversial. Even if the science behind it isn't.

I've been around awhile, long enough that I've seen this show before. What we're seeing now with global warming is the same pattern we've seen with every profitable threat to civilization that's come along in the last couple hundred years. Take whatever deniers are saying about climate change right now and substitute lead, asbestos, DDT, PCB's, CFC's, tobbaco, seat belts, etc. It's like an old fashioned madlibs where you have blanks to write in whatever word you want. The crucial difference here is that rather than the suffering and dying end after lobbying and disinfo makes society drag its feet on the latest threat to public health, the damage done by climate change is frontloaded. If we manage to get this under control, the greenhouse gases already in the atmosphere will continue to increase climate instability for generations to come.

1 thing I still struggle with is, if the land ice mass is melting at a rapid rate and the oceans are warming, why am I not observing a faster ocean rise rate.

[@old-pete]

Because oceans are huge and the ice mass is huge. The amount melting is small compared to the ocean and the remaining ice masses. Melting all ice will take around 5000 years at the current rate (or never if we slow down the warming) or at least 600 years, if we emit CO2 like madmen and reach multiple tipping points.

[@thorin1045]

mostly because they are not the important part in ocean rise: the entire polar cap and all glacier melting would mean less than half meter of ocean level raise. to compare, every degree of heating mean around three quarters of a meter rise. the big one will the permafrost (it it will take long time to all the water slowly reach the ocean) and greenland melting. even those will be two or so degrees worth of rise, so temperature will be the greatest contributor for it.

The sad part is distrust of institutions increases in times of famine, war, economic distress, etc. All of this will escalate exponentially as climate change continues. There is good critical thinking that can and should be applied to institutions and conclusions thereof. But climate change is not one of those issues. You cannot make a broad statement that nothing can be trusted. It helps no one but elites and changes nothing. It leads to the demos broadly using it as a permission structure to reject anything uncomfortable, which happens to fold nicely into corporate exploration of people and the environments they need. If you /want/ to distrust everything for do-my-own-research, which overwhelmingly when stated means "I look at yt videos and read clickbait," there's nothing, no argument that can be said that can change your mind unless it feeds into dopamine receptors triggered by sensationalism, ergo the brain spiral into the yarn ball of conspiracies.

The reason that there seems to be a sudden rise in global temperatures in the last 100 years, is because the majority of land based thermometers in the world are located in places that once were just outside of urban areas so that they were not as influenced by the urban heating island effect, however in the time since they were placed there, those communities have grown around them and encompassed them into the urban heat island effected areas. When scientists have adjusted for that by removing those thermometers from the measurements and only focused on rural and maritime based thermometers, the sudden rise is eliminated.

Especially plankton that has a short life cycle, is either eaten or rots. Re-releasing the carbon. Trees can store the carbon much longer, but it comes down to biomass.

More Than 1,600 Scientists Declare Apocalyptic Global Warming a Myth BY ANDREW MIILLER • SEPTEMBER 3, 2023 Acoalition of 1,609 scientists and professionals have signed a declaration stating they “strongly oppose the harmful and unrealistic net-zero CO2 policy” being pushed around the globe. The declaration, published on August 14 by the Global Climate Intelligence Group, states: Natural as well as human factors cause warming. Warming is far slower than predicted. Climate policy relies on inadequate models. CO2 is plant food (the basis of all life on Earth). Global warming has not increased natural disasters. Climate policy must respect scientific and economic realities. The most recent signatory of the declaration is Dr. John F. Clauser, winner of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics for work on entangled photons. Red environmentalism: Burning fossil fuels may have some limited effect on global temperatures, but it’s hard to tell because repeated scientific fraud has clouded the issue. Reasonable people want clean air, water and soil for themselves and others, so radical central planners are highly motivated to mix concern for the environment in with their socialist ideology. This strategy also makes socialist activists, journalists and politicians highly motivated to hijack and exaggerate concerns about the environment to literally doomsday-level proportions. When a course of action (such as soil remediation) would help the environment but do nothing for the socialist agenda, they ignore it. When a course of action would hurt the environment (such as giving a pass to the world’s biggest polluter, which happens to be Communist), they go for it. Deadly distraction: What you see in the news isn’t a may-the-best-facts-win scientific debate. It is the result of manipulation designed to frighten people into surrendering their God-endowed rights to a central planning committee. Many scientists scoff at the notion that God controls the weather, but the book of Job states that God balances the vapors of the clouds and warms the Earth with a south wind (Job 37:16-17). God commands the clouds to do His will, whether for mercy or for correction (verses 12-13). Psalm 148 shows this understanding of God’s power, stating, “Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word” (verse 8). Such passages confirm that God controls the sun and balances the gases that compose the clouds. They also confirm that God sends fire and stormy winds to fulfill His promises.

Not specifically about the graph, but building new nuclear isn't as tractable as it seems. At this point, new reactors are too expensive to build, and will take too long to be operational to make the difference they need to make, with the lengthy construction process continuously emitting lots of carbon dioxide from concrete and transport requirements. For generation, renewables are cheaper, and quicker to build. As for the energy security problem from weather fluctuations, I think nuclear is a red herring solution for the reasons above, and what needs to be done is further investment and research into new energy storage.

[@neocosmopolis]

Nuclear could be useful long term, but the time it takes given the process of getting them started means that they are not useful immediate solutions. It would require some more immediate solutions simultaneous to getting nuclear going. Personally, I agree that nuclear would be very useful, additionally, it would be amazing if Fusion technology produces results relatively soon. However, we still need to phase out carbon emitting sources as quick as we can so slow down the rate of change. For now only stuff like solar and wind can help mitigate that until we get more nuclear and other sources. The biggest hurdle to nuclear is finding places where the locals will let you build one. I agree that its frustrating that there doesn't seem to be more effort on the nuclear path. Although given Fukushima, Chernobyl, and recent concerns regarding the nuclear plant in Ukraine under Russian occupation could all contribute to politicians seeing nuclear as a being politically "radioactive."

Solar forcing is indeed important, but on time scales relevant to human history solar irradiance is practically constant. Even near solar minimum, when galactic comic rays have easier access to Earth, and during the solar maximum, their spectrum remains relatively constant in energy and composition, varying only slowly with time. Just as the solar cycle follows a roughly elven year cycle, so does galactic cosmic rays with its maximum. No mechanism has been discovered for variations in the solar wind or magnetic field to affect Earth's climate significantly. It's a red herring when folk claim these forcing do; popular on "climate skeptic" pseudoscience blogs, but we know once a talking point gains inertia in the "skeptic" echo chamber, it never dies. The steady decline in energy output, the 11 year cycle in sunspots, and the variations in the solar wind shows no correlation with climate on annual, decadal, nor century scales. The Urban Heat Effect has no significant influence on the record of global temperature trends.

[@stevenpostrel4901]

You cannot compare the recent uptick in temperature, which is measured with high-frequency accuracy by instruments, with the low-frequency record from before thermometers and satellites. That comparison is guaranteed to generate a spurious "rapid" change in temperature simply because the older records smooth out the high-frequency peaks and troughs. The same applies to the paleoclimate record---comparing the speed of temperature change using data with very different temporal resolution is invalid and misleading.

[@old-pete]

Why should more accurate measurements be higher?

[@stevenpostrel4901]

At times they could be lower. The problem is that short-term fluctuations, up and down, are suppressed in the older data. So a short-term upstroke around a smoother trend would look like a spike if one didn't account for the different time resolution. If I average hours of sunlight over a week, then append the first 12 hours of the next day it's going to look like a runaway sunshine crisis. @@old-pete

[@vm5773]

This video misses several KEY points, that many climate scientists have discussed. 1. The data presented assumes that climate changes based on human activity will have an ever accelerating cycle, and that climate will rapidly spiral out of control. What it does not mention is that many or most of the earth processes are based on "feedback loops" that auto-correct themselves. In fact, almost all planetary cycles correct themselves, and do not spiral out of control. For example, CO2, along with being a greenhouse gas, can also be thought of as "plant food". Most of the CO2 in the earth's atmosphere for billions of years became rapidly fixed into carbon chains, once photosynthesis came about and spread across the planet. Human consumption of CO2 has increased atmospheric CO2, but also has resulted in massive blooms of blue green algae, which have become visible from outer space. This is the basis of the food chain, and has had an effect on all sea life. In a sense, higher CO2 levels result in more algae food, which grows fish populations, counteracting the effects of massive human commercial fishing of the oceans. There are many more of these type of feedback loops. To try to talk about climate change while ignoring these feedback auto correcting loops is not correct, and can be misleading. 2. The author mentions only ONE source of data and recommendations, the IPCC. For a topic so controversial and complex, data from a multitude of centers without sampling bias should have been done. I am skeptical of reports from scientists, even universities, because biased, non-science radical people often withhold grant money from science labs, unless they report favorably the way they want. Therefore, so much of all this research is corrupted and biased, and this makes it very difficult to trust the objectivity of these reports. 3. There have been numerous attempts at "falsifying" and data manipulation by many of these "scientific" sites. For example, before the Paris accord, the research data used as the basis for the agreement forged much of the data on deep ocean temperatures, extrapolating the most unlikely and dangerous option when no data was collected in the past, and using that model to predict the future. Once this was discovered, it cast a shadow on all the scientific data used, because it was not credible. It was used to push a political agenda. While it was not falsifying the data, there was a deliberate extrapolation of deep sea water temperatures in the past, assuming the worst possible scenario. 4. Many of the people, politicians, and investors who are pushing the climate change agenda have a huge profit motive backing their actions which they fail to reveal. For example, Warren Buffett wanted to kill the Keystone XL pipeline, but at the same time, he quietly invested heavily in a railroad that now takes all the oil harvested in Canada by rail to the refineries in the USA, resulting in big profit for himself. Remember the "energy crisis" of the 1970's? OPEC countries profited dramatically by creating a world energy crisis, spreading a lie that oil reservoirs in the middle east were nearing their end. Oil powers all of humanity and is the the single most valuable resource on the planet. There are many powers at play seeking to profit from the "climate change crisis". To assume that all these actors are purely altruistic and want to "save the planet" is incredibly naïve and plain stupid. 5. The loudest voices warning about climate change are often the most hypocritical. Al Gore pushes the dangers of climate change, yet he has made hundreds of millions of dollars from lobbyists in the green energy industry, and his own mega mansion and lifestyle leaves a MASSIVE carbon footprint. Many of the "elites" traveling to climate change summits do so in private jets, which release so much CO2, that one flight is the equivalent of a half year consumption of CO2 for an average household. 6. Ocean levels are rising. 3 mm a year. 7 cm rise in the next 25 years. However, beachfront property in Miami is selling now at an all time record high. Facts are important, but also taken in the context of the big picture. 7. No mention on the two biggest carbon polluters in the world, China and India. China opens one new coal plant a week, and buys TONS of coal from the USA and other countries, yet the western world continues to move their industrial base into China, so they can manufacture their products for them cheaply. Sure, continue investing in green energy, transition away from fossil fuels, invest heavily into nuclear energy, transition into electric and fuel cell vehicles. Those are all noble goals and we should continue in that direction. No argument. However, there are so many different facets to this complex topic that were simply not brought up and discussed. I personally am not worried, and I am 100% confident that Earth will enter ice age #8 in another 60,000 years.

[@edwardponder66]

Feedbacks are considered in physical models. Current simulations as in CMIP (Coupled Model Intercomparison Project) consider a myriad of climate forcings, such as atmospheric variables, land cover, oceanography, ecology and so on from many sources (satelital images and sensors, oceanographic buoys, meteorological stations, etc.). These simulations are contrasted, calibrated and validated with current and historical measurements, and with geological records, to better understand the past and to predict future scenarios based on changes of forcings. You can see at 11:43 the predicted trajectory of temperature considering only natural forcings, simulations with the output of human activity and the actual observations. This result, just as an example, is quite clear. So to wrap it all, we study climate with in situ measurements across all the globe in the land, the sea and the air, with remote measurements thanks to hundreds of satellites, with geochemical proxies at glaciers, fossils and the bottom of lakes and seas, and use all that information to produce statistical modela ans physical models that allow us to understand and predict the behaviour of the climate. From all of this, we can derive the role of many forcings, and in this particular case, understand how industrial emissions are affecting the climate.

[@JohnHancock-vu4nd]

If western governments are really worried about Co2 then why do they keep down sizing heavy industry and manufacturing in their own countries? Laws and regulations are much stricter here, and the processes used to make these products and materials are much cleaner than they other parts of the world. Areas where they now need to ship the materials and products in from create much more pollution and Co2 to make the same things we could make ourselves! It literally makes zero sense. If this is a global problem, then it doesn't matter where the Co2 comes from. All that should matter is that there is less of it being produced no matter where it comes from. All western nations seem to care about it that their own co2 balance sheet looks good, but their actions actually caused more Co2 to be produced globally. Judge them by what they do not what they say and what they do seems to contradict what they say!

[@mikekasich836]

​@@harmanthind2147yes. Because those governments are specifically enacting policies admittedly in their public statements doing so in order to cut down on their own manufacturing which has the effect of increasing manufacturing and those other countries.. In fact if you look at the Paris climate scam all it would have done is Forest Western countries with stricter regulations to reduce their manufacturing and thus their pollution but it placed no restrictions on the world's largest polluters which were China and India and in fact allowed them to INCREASE their pollution At the same time it would have taken hundreds of billions of dollars of Western taxpayer dollars and paid them out to China and India. And then you wonder why people say that the left-wing communists are controlled by China.. maybe it's because everything they do seems to be in the effort to hurt America and help China.. The point is that it wouldn't have done anything for global temperatures or pollution. Well it would have done is help the economies of foreign countries at the expense of the Western ones.. So yes it's the fault of the government's mostly.. They are specifically trying to force more manufacturing in these other countries that control them.. It's why they were so against Trump's trade war with China. By doing what George Washington and other founding fathers did and increasing tariffs it would motivate companies to move manufacturing back over large scale time frames. That would mean less money for China and if China owns your party you would very much be against that. Also the same with doing oil drilling in America. Making America energy independent hurts China and also reduces pollution because of less need for shipping. You don't have to drill it in the Middle East drive a truck to the ocean and then a giant oil ship across the ocean just to get it to America.. All of those are GOVERNMENT policies.. corporations will do whatever is cheaper. The government can influence whether manufacturing at home or in China is cheaper. Just like the lie about censorship. That they are "private companies" Who can "do whatever they want" As we know from leak to documents and public letters and freedom of information requests it's actually the government's typically the Western Communist governments of America and Europe FORCING these companies to censor We know that the Biden dictatorship openly forced many of these companies to censor his political opponents. We've seen public letters and documents coming from Western European regimes where they force the social media companies to censor political opponents of the Communist agenda.. The European regime sent a letter out to most social media companies telling them to demonetize Russell Brand. Over sexual assault allegations apparently.. Why would European Communist governments take such an interest in a former Hollywood actors allegations to that extent? Probably because it has nothing to do with the allegations and everything to do with them trying to silence a man that was exposing their corruption.. So yes the governments censored.. The government were behind most of these terrible things. Including pushing all the manufacturing to places that pollute more. China owned the left wing.. The Soviet plot that Joe McCarthy warned about where the Soviet communists were infiltrating every aspect of the Western world from academia to Hollywood the media the government the deep state etc came true.. The ripple effect continuing long after the collapse of the Soviet Union.. The only difference is that with the Soviet Union collapse those Communists had to go and pledge their loyalty to the next closest thing. The only other communist government: China And they were more than happy to allow it.. point is that yes these are done by the government. The government purposely enact policies to make those things happen. To influence gas prices going up so that Americans will have to buy electric cars. To influence manufacturing going abroad. Whether it's done for money or not is irrelevant. If they truly care about climate change and so it has the greatest threat the world ever faced the way they claim then one of their top priorities would be to bring manufacturing back to the Western countries with more restrictions and regulations and less pollution. By instead creating policies to force as much manufacturing as possible towards countries like China and India who pollute more than anyone they are showing that it's not a top priority for them. That they don't believe in it that badly. While Democrat voters might be so stupid and conspiracy doomsday cult that they think they will literally live through the end of the world as it literally burned the reality is that the politicians telling them those things don't believe it at all. Even their grifting spokes grifters like Greta Thunderbird run around the world on private jets that pollute more In one tr than the average person in an entire year So again people pushing these climate doomsday conspiracy theories Don't believe in it themselves. At least they don't believe that they're going to live through it.. And that's the basic premise. The governments that supposedly care enough about it to give millions of dollars of subsidies to the green energy lobby that fund most of their campaigns clearly aren't concerned enough to bring manufacturing back to countries that have emissions standards The grifting pundits and celebrities always talking about climate change when they're promoting a new book or movie clearly don't believe in it enough to stop flying on their private jet or even to buy a house slightly further inland from the beach.. They keep claiming that everything will be underwater yet they spend millions of dollars on beachfront property. Property that gets insured by insurance companies. Who also must not believe in that because if the insurance company believed that the beach house would be underwater they would never agree to insure it.. The biggest promoters of these doomsday conspiracy theories don't seem to believe them. So why should we?
