"Waterfowl" hunters, (ducks, geese, etc) usually don't eat what they shoot. It's either left in the field for coyotes, or else they're all donated to a local shelter if equipped to process and use them during hunting seasons, which many do; but not all. So unless it's going to taxidermist, they just leave them right where they fall. Asked a coworker what fun was there in that, and he said while smiling in a dreamy _weird_ way, "it's just incredible to hear their bodies thump on the ground, so hard you can feel and sense it" and I said you're something else bud. Something else.

Storms are not getting more damaging when measured on a non-monetary scale. Yes, hurricanes cause billions of dollars in damage but that is because trillions of dollars in development has happened in areas which are susceptible to hurricanes. That doesn't mean the storms are more powerful than they were 100 years ago, just that people have built more where building wasn't a good idea in the first place.

@DiscoChixify4 күн бұрын
Those barrier islands were never supposed to have people on them. The barrier islands built along the Florida coast were meant to be the first hit by hurricanes. They were supposed to catch the most intense ocean waves, slow down the flood waters, and give people living on the old sea front a better chance at survival. But then Florida started selling those island to property development companies and those companies put houses on them. That’s the dumbest thing. They know those properties will be destroyed and rebuilt over and over again, and the people living in them will lose everything including their lives. Why they didn’t just try to build a wall to stop waves instead is mind boggling. Japan knows a thing or two about building walls to protect their coasts and inlands from Tsunamis 🌊. They have a lot of other methods too. Why are the engineers in Florida not taking note of how other countries are protecting their coastlines and trying to replicate strategies that are already known to work? Do they really care more about money than people? Do they really care more about reducing visual obstructions than the safety of these coastal communities?

You made some mistakes in this video, WATOP. First, at 7:14 (etc.) You're right about why the Bay of Fundy has such enormous tides, but you consistently mispronounced it. "Oscillation" has no "K" sound. Second, at 8:00 what you said about storms was incorrect, They are not worsening. Neither hurricanes nor nor'easters have detectably worsened over the last half-century. In fact, tornadoes have become much *_less_* destructive. (Nobody knows why!) Third, at 1:15, the global average of coastal sea-level trends is only about half the 1/8 inch per year that you cited. In fact, it's so slight that in many places the local ("relative") trend is negative, because the coast is rising faster than the ocean. (The Earth is not solid!) There's one excellent, long, sea-level measurement record on the Bay of Fundy. It's at St. John, NB. Over the last century the mean sea-level trend there has averaged +2.37 ±0.26 mm/yr (1/11-th inch per year), which is only nine inches per century. That's completely negligible compared to the 16 foot typical daily tidal range there. So there's no danger that rising sea-level could drown the buildings. What's more, that trend there has not accelerated. Over the last century, acceleration (determined by quadratic regression) has been -0.0226 ±0.0197 mm/yr². Note the minus sign. In some places, sea-level trends have accelerated slightly, and in others (like St. John, NB) they've decelerated slightly, but in nearly all cases (including St. John) the change in trend is so slight that it's of no practical consequence. So it can't be blamed on you-know-what change.

Was he expecting some coffee producer to jump on his page and pay him big advertising money every time he said "I'll have a cup of coffee and continue"? Didn't work out I guess. Now it's just a dumb departure from the rest of every video. We don't need to know that he's pretending to have a cup of coffee one minute into every video.

Wow climate change 🤔🤔…. Funny how they talk about climate change as if it only happens while people are living on earth .
@Scorpster3 күн бұрын
Nonsense, they are constantly talking about the issue being the RATE OF CHANGE, not seen during ANY OTHER time period on earth. Are you so dense you think the scientists ignore the natural cycles (that they also likely discovered) in their climate models....what stupidity.

Everyone talks about the rising sea level. Nobody ever talks about the boats and their water displacement. Side note and a resident of AB my house has flooded twice. Our lake has a 70 year cycle and for the first time since I've lived here the lake actually has water. The earth goes in cycles

Had the same though years ago, so many huge ships and submarines on and in the seas must displace a huge amount of water, not to mention all the sand and dirt being pushed into the sea to make artificial islands.

Since the 1990s, satellites and tide gauges have shown that sea levels have risen by 21 to 24 centimeters (8 to 9 inches) over the past 140 years. The rate of sea level rise has more than doubled since the start of the 20th century.

@@Scorpsteris there some study that you would like to reference that is not beholden to any benefiting parties? A report that is pushing an agenda or narrative and has no bias? Are you aware that huge Marine equipment runs underwater dredging and or vacuuming up sand and soil in base and along coastlines all over the world? Are you aware that rain, wind, flooding, hurricanes and Storm surges is constantly removing sand and soi! From inland property in coastal areas out to the Sea and the ocean 24/7? But you're going to go ahead and blame it on the temperature in the atmosphere or a adjustment to gas ratios in the air .
