The US heat dome is a warning for the 2024 elections

[DukeU]

This was never a widespread belief, and would remain completely unknown had it not appeared on the cover of TIME and is now used to promote doubt in what scientists have been telling us for 50 years: The earth is warming because of carbon emissions from all of us.

How widespread must a belief be to make the cover of TIME magazine?

 

[Matted Joybeard]

Sounds like we need more air conditioning.
How many more nuclear reactors should we build?

If people need AC then what about actual wildlife.

If people need AC then what about actual wildlife.

If you want to build AC for wildlife, you should check with your local government first.

That was up to the editor of TIME magazine, I suppose.

So you allow your scientific knowledge to be influenced by the cover of TIME magazine?

Sad.

 

[odanny]

Better check your sources, I was there. in the 1970s the Ohio River froze solid so you could walk from Kentucky to Indiana and Ohio! The so-called climate scientists cited that as proof we were heading for an ice age.

There was a newspaper that ran a headline "Dewey Defeats Truman" but we haven't said for the last 75 years that every newspaper is wrong.

One erroneous outlier is now seized upon by the science doubters.

Just use my common sense really.

It has served me well.

I have never been stranded anywhere and needed to be rescued.

That's fine, but shit happens to people out drilling ice cores and measuring disappearing populations of wildlife, and in case you didn't know, climate change is occurring at a 3 to 4 times the acceleration at both poles then it is where you and I live.

LOL

They were there to study the "melting ice".

Serious question though.

Do you think if they knew they would get stuck for 3 weeks and have to be rescued by helicopter they would have still made the trip?




These are smart people right?

Opinion | The U.S. heat dome is a warning about the 2024 election

And there may be no policy area with a clearer divide between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.

No one would describe Saudi Arabia in the summer as chilly, but pilgrims at this year’s Hajj experienced something unusual even for this largely desert nation. According to the Saudi weather service, temperatures at the Grand Mosque in Mecca reached an astonishing 125 degrees Fahrenheit on Monday; 2,700 people reportedly were overcome by heat exhaustion, and dozens of pilgrims died from the temperatures.

If you have grandchildren and you want them to see a bright future, you will not vote for trump. He has vowed to roll back all environmental efforts to battle climate change. His view into the future extends no farther than the end of his orange nose. With trump is is all about power and money. He is thinking of his Saudi friends and their dependence on fossil fuel revenue.

Within five years, we may be seeing 120+ degrees temperature in the US, on a regular basis. Then the repubs will come up with another excuse to deny climate change.

Screw you and the Climate bullsh*t you rode in on Jim

How many new nuclear reactors should we build?

People and modern civilization cannot survive indoors with AC if the rest of the biosphere is fried.

That's awful!

Right, so only one point of view is permitted to speak. That's not science, that's tyranny.

Questioning the science is, literally, science!

These are smart people right?

Were the scientists steering the ship?

You don't think you're smart, right?

 

[odanny]

Questioning the science is, literally, science!

A hypothesis is a statement that can be proved or disproved. It is typically used in quantitative research and predicts the relationship between variables.

All science is questioned. All anyone will ask is "prove it".

Scientists are not liars.

Scientists never lie? Never ever?

You are referring to Mann the "Nobel Prize winner" methinks...
