Rising extreme weather events

[jc456]

Heres the thing........nobody cares about this.

For many, many years, the climate obsessed have been posting up this "extreme weather" narrative. Nobody is caring. Certainly, voters could not possibly care any less.

The reason is, the research all says that people's perception of the climate always depends on their local climate. From birth, people see weather events........all kinds. Routinely. They are unmoved. d0y.

When might they care?

If we see a statistically significant change. In our lifetimes, we havent seen dick, thus the meh attitude amongst the public.

When we some day wake up to news of northern Canada going through 10 days of 80 degrees in mid-January, watching bikini clad babes jet skiing on a lake in Manatoba county.........then people will pay attention. Not a second sooner.

A bunch of people in Texas are caring right now as once again their electricity is going tits up. But they have 1/4 billion dollars to spend on a wall that can be scaled with a $5 ladder. Typical Cult of Trump logic.

They don't have enough windmills?

They need more green energy!

We are already having major fires, the floods continue around the world, and this hurricane season is shaping up like last years.

Does one version of CO2 cause fires and another causes floods?

During the past million years, co2 froze greenland while thawing North America....

Just do not notice any tectonic plate movement...

Damn, you surely are on dumb ass, Greenland was covered by far more ice then than it is today, and the two ice sheets were probably connected.

Yes, that graphic represents what a glacial cycle would look like. There have been 33 glacial/interglacial cycles over the last 2.7 million years.

We are in an interglacial cycle and our present temperature is 2C below the peak temperatures of previous interglacial cycles. So Greenland today is exactly what Greenland should look like in an interglacial cycle.

Stop blaming CO2 for natural conditions.

They have the problem BECAUSE of you clods demanding intermittent low mass power of wind and solar, they were required by the Obamination administration. The disaster last winter was the utter failure of wind to do its part that the back up high mass power generators struggled to keep the lights on.

Oh boy looks like old Rock is on a roll with misleading claims over floods:

Meanwhile,

15 Biggest and Worst Floods Ever in History​

The Worst Floods in History

1931 Yangtze River Flood​

Your ignorance is well known, you keep emphasizing it over and over.

You are such a dummy. Yes, the failure of the turbines did contribute to the disaster. However, 15 Gwts loss was from natural gas, and about 4 gwts was from wind. Yet there was little wind loss in places like Minnesota or the Dakotas. And they were colder for longer. And little loss in those areas from loss of natural gas. Now why do you suppose that was? Texas even had a nuke go offline from frozen water pipes, the same for some coal generation plants. Now we have a heat crisis, and that same Texas grid is failing in places again. Maybe an investment in their grid would be wiser than building a quarter billion dollar wall that can be scaled with a five dollar ladder. Here are some of the facts about that power loss in February;

They need more green energy!

What they need is more brains. The cold spell in 2011 should have told them that there grid was inadequate to handle a long freeze. But they did nothing, and the inevitable happened. At the same time as some of their mills were freezing up, the mills in the Dakotas, where it was far colder for longer, were doing just fine. Why was that? Couldn't be because "Conservatives" are just too damned stupid to consider what the future might bring? El Paso, which is not on the Texas grid, had no power outages. Yes, they do need more green energy. And some people in government with enough brains to realize that you need to prepare the grid for winter even in Texas.

How would more brains prevent the floods in China?

China.......LOL!
