Climate Change is Accelerating

Are you well versed enough in it to explain why none of it is considered entertainment?

All those reasons you describe make sense to me but why aren't some of the characters ever portrayed as being intentionally fictional to express things about their culture like the way we do with cinema?

 

Mythological hero or demi god stories were also definitely used as entertainment. But they were rarely just that since they're usually connected to spirituality, religion or natural phenomenoms. People simply knew a lot less for certain. They had a lot less factual history.

 

It is pretty amusing, she used "rational conversation" and Annunaki in the same sentence.

 

Like I explained with my new found religion for science people, the New Age Mythologists, they do little to nothing more than what other people do with their own religions. You've got your books and your theories, not to dissimilar to religions, and you also have faith that these theories are correct although have never been proven, but they hold a steadfast firm belief that they're true so that the unavoidable answers to the questions we pursue can be answered in a way we can understand and interpret. Thus making hypothetical and theoretical sciences just as relevant, or non relevant pending your view, as any other mythology aka religion. So we can bridge the gap and solidify that science is a religion.

What's annoying though is im often accused of never studying and never researching anything I argue about, yet I have a tough time in accepting I've been bested in many of the conversations and arguments I do have, which I'm sure is quite irritating but nonetheless, holds ground.

I know GB won't go out of his way to learn anything I tell him, so I have to dumb it all down in a post I hope is worth reading and I put my heart and soul into knowing it probably won't be read.

So it's a bit hypocritical to me in every aspect science vs religion. It's basically the same principal first hand. They both rely on personal interpretations to help an individual understand their place in life and why..... and neither actually really knows for sure.

 

I do see a pattern

Why does it always have to be presented the way you just did.

The temp in July, the height of the northern hemisphere summer, is 1.7F hotter than all months in the 20th century

Why just single out July?

...because when you use the average of the whole of 2019, it comes out a lame 0.2F

And if you did it the other way around, January of 2019 compared to the average of last century, you would get a negative figure

Why bullshit that way?

 

Well In the case of the article on Ocean temperatures Vlad posted, the scientists measure the energy of anomalies, in joules. Someone along the way ( not the scientists) converts 20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 joules into Celcius heat units, the energy required to raise the temp of a pound of water, at sea level, at the equator by 1C, then try to claim that figure an average temperature increase

It's not the scientists saying the ocean temp has increased 0.075C, the study didn't measure temperatures

 

That's my sense of humour right there though, I'll put myself down while making an observation. I worded it so we'd both get a laugh out of it. I had to piece it together on my phone though cause when I thought of it in the shower I didn't want to turn my computer back on.

I think a lot of my humour is really having a dig at myself most of the time sarcastically, that's why I str8 up call myself a dickhead, cause I am. I'm a dickhead.

 

Something we can all agree on :-D

 

I wonder if the government will be blamed for the flash floods happening?
FYI it's the wet season up in the NT and north Qld.

 

Of course it's the governments fault for the floods. It's their fault it's raining.

 

Supervillains.

 

i just read an article that suggested most climate change photos of ice melt are usually fake and planted on social media knowingly because people will share without looking or reading. It went on to show the most popular photos shared of glacier melts and ice sheet breaks are all fake. It concluded it's not so much of an agenda anymore, but an epidemic of false information.

I guess I'll lose interest from here on out.

 

Sounds legit.

 

Enormous Iceland glacier has vanished as shock pictures reveal destruction of Arctic heatwave

Two pictures taken in Summer, 2019, 1986

Omg, all the ice has gone forever!

The trick is of course only showing photos at the height of summer

That circular thing at the left on each photo is OK volcano

Type "ok volcano" into Google maps and you can see, as we are at the height of summer, it has more ice coverage this summer


Iceland in winter

You really believe a lot of glaciers have not shrunken to an all time low in recorded history?

I mean its one thing to state the public is tried to be convinced with misleading info (under the excuse of the goal justifies such means), and another to state the increased decline of glaciers is completely bogus.

 

And where did I say the decline of glaciers is completely bogus?

If all these melt photos are always going to be taken in the middle of summer, people are going to notice

 

I don't think you did literally, I was just wondering if it was implied in that post.

 

Summer is a scary time in this subject.

 

Here is another one. This time from NASA ( sort of)

Comparing two photos, both in summer years apart

And contains the paragraph:

"Approximately 90 percent of the surface of Greenland’s ice sheet melted at some point between July 30 and Aug. 2, during which time an estimated 55 billion tons of ice melted into the ocean, according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center."



Without of course say how much of it refroze two months later and the term "surface of Greenland’s ice sheet" isn't referring to Greenland's ice sheet. They are just talking about the surface area they can see in the photo, is parts that aren't actually part of the ice sheet

Even .2 is too much for an ecosystem. Reptiles in particular can't handle that. I know the lay man thinks they like it hot so it's fine. They do but "hot" in sense of millions of years of evolution not a century of change like we have done. I'm amazed you can have the views you do. Have you looked out your window lately? I'm sure you would say it's man made fires since they are like a dozen arrests for that. Some people just like chaos.

I don't know it would seem you are just stubborn. It's very likely your entire country will not be able to sustain human life in the coming years and still it's nothing to you. It was always hot for you. Now it's so hot the Kola is going to extinct and no one can deal with the yearly fires.
