Questions for the ‘Majority of Scientists Agree’ Climate Changers

[abu afak]

Pathetic lies. Europe is freezing and the poor dying because they believed in your god of green.

What's an 'alarmist' as opposed to sober warnings about the huge displacement that is coming?
Very few predicted it would happen already.
All anecdotal. Most are talking end of Century.
Of course there is displacement even now.

Is our Military 'Leftists' MAGAt boy?
Please read app my 20 Links in/throughout this thread.
Already a problem and getting worse every decade.

Depopulating Military Installations Because of Sea Level Rise​

July 6, 2020

"...In case you missed it, an audit of the U.S. Department of Defense’s installation climate resilience from last year, conducted by the Government Accountability Office, found that “installations have not consistently assessed risks from extreme weather and climate change effects or consistently used projections to anticipate future climate conditions.”

One of those conditions is Sea Level Rise that will affect multiple coastal installations (see here and here).
Sea level rise will not only affect the physical infrastructure on these installations, it will also potentially lead to the inland migration of portions of the populations who live in the surrounding communities – some of whom form part of an installation’s work force. Depending on how far away and how many migrants move, their loss will degrade an installation’s ability to continue to function at an acceptable level over time."..>'

What the U.S. Military is Doing About Climate Change​

"...The Naval station Norfolk in Portsmouth, VA, the largest naval base in the world, already floods ten times a year when full moons cause especially high tides—sea levels there are one and a half feet higher than they were when the base was built in 1917, and rising twice as fast as average global sea levels. By 2050, Norfolk is expected to flood 280 times a year.".."

Moving to Renewable Energy

The Department of Defense has a department-wide goal to obtain at least 20% of its energy from renewable sources by 2020, reduce its petroleum use and draw on more alternative fuels. (Each branch of the military also has its own renewable energy goal.) This has nothing to do with the political controversy over climate change. It is because the U.S. military is the single largest consumer of energy and oil in the world, and moving fuel along supply lines in conflict areas invites attack and endangers lives. Moreover, it’s costly—according to a Defense Department spokesperson, “a $1 rise in the price of a barrel of oil translates to approximately $130 million over the course of a year.”

The number of renewable energy projects in the U.S. military almost tripled between 2011 and 2015, with many of them enabling bases to be energy independent in case of a natural disaster or attack. The use of distributed renewables at bases reduces the possibility of disruptions in procuring energy, and increases resilience in case of cyberattacks on the grid.

The Army’s goal is to get 25% of the energy it consumes from renewable sources by 2025, and to be net zero by 2030 (meaning it will generate as much energy as it uses). [/B]In 2015, it derived 12% of its energy from renewables and by 2016 had 17 large renewable energy projects in development.

The biggest U.S. military base, Fort Hood in Texas, is already drawing almost 50% of its power from renewable energy, with 63,000 solar panels on site and 21 off-site wind turbines producing 65 MW of power. This is expected to SAVE more than $100 million over 30 years.

The Army Net Zero initiative created 17 pilot installations around the country which, at the end of 2015, had reduced energy use by 5 percent and generated 28,700 MWh of renewable energy, most of which was consumed at the bases. It also reduced potable water consumption by 11% and recycled and harvested rainwater, saving 89 million gallons of water.

The Navy aims to get 50% of its energy from alternative sources by 2020, and for half of its installations to be net zero by 2020. According to Stars and Stripes, the Navy was already getting almost 50 percent of its energy from renewable sources in 2016....

What the U.S. Military is Doing About Climate Change​

The White House may deny that climate change is happening, but the Department of Defense has been taking action for years to avoid and adapt to climate-related disasters.

What qualifies a title of scientist?

Is there any conflict of interest that disqualifies said scientist?

Throughout history every scientific understanding of the world around us today was once a minority position. So why is it scientific to discount all non majority views?

Attacking anyone for simply pointing out the economic and physical impossibility of what the majority are telling the public. Why is that good science?

Cute whining.

So, ready to step up to the plate? I can provide you with the email address.of a climate scientist.

I want you to take your absolute favorite denier idiot talking point and email it to a climate scientist.

Then , post the response here.

Rising seas threaten Norfolk Naval Shipyard, raising fears of 'catastrophic damage'​

“Every year you wait to make decisions and take actions, the risk goes up," said retired Rear Adm. Jonathan White.

"...But the shipyard now faces its greatest existential threat: Rising Seas and extreme weather driven by Climate Change.
In the past 10 years, Norfolk Naval Shipyard has suffered nine major floods that have damaged equipment used to repair ships, and the flooding is worsening, according to the Navy. In 2016, rain from Hurricane Matthew left 2 feet of water in one building, requiring nearly $1.2 million in repairs...
And that wasn’t even a direct hit — the most immediate worry, former military leaders say, is a strong storm that blows right through the area.

“It would have the potential for serious, if not catastrophic damage, and it would certainly put the shipyard out of business for some amount of time,” said Ray Mabus, who was the Navy secretary under President Barack Obama. “That has implications not just for the shipyard, but for us, for the Navy.”
Among the shipyard’s greatest vulnerabilities are its five dry docks, which are waterside basins that can be sealed and pumped dry to expose a ship’s hull for repairs. Once inside, vessels are often cut open, leaving expensive mechanical systems vulnerable to damage from storms and flooding.

The dry docks “were not designed to accommodate the threats” of rising seas and stronger storms, according to a 2017 report by the Government Accountability Office. Navy officials warned the government watchdog agency that flooding in a dry dock could cause “catastrophic damage to the ships.”

How much in mm/yr is the sea rising? Is the rate of rise accelerating?

I know the answer (easy one) but you are baiting POS with no ability whatsoever.
If you can't look up this one and start debating (and you can't on ANY topic) you are just.. well.. what you are.
A One line harass troll with politics, not the topic matter in interest.
that way in EVERY Thread you low life one-line POS
Bye.

You know less about it than the other guy which is why neither one of you can discuss it despite your attempts to paint a different picture.

You got to love the bravado of certain posters who claim there is a climate emergency but can't tell you how fast the seas are rising. But trust them.... there's an emergency.

The reason people like you won't say it out loud is because it would then turn into simple math and you can't have that so it's better for you to not say at all.

The sea level has been rising at approximately the same rate for the past 6,000 years. The reason for the rise is that the planet is in an interglacial period.
