VOTE for Politicians who aren't corruptable by big oil. Facts are for every degree warmer, the atmosphere holds 7% more moisture, and the more common atmospheric rivers we are experiencing.
It'll get a bit wetter as it goes through it's cycle and it's warmer than the ice age cycle!!!! Nobody can stop earth's cycles !!!! You have to educate ourselves into believing the real facts about our planet.

Hahahahahahahaha brainwashed.
@@justinjefferson5831yep, that's exactly what you are!!
@@Supportingtruth8258
Hahahaha. As proved by merely pointing out that the whole thing is nothing but corruption and propaganda?
You admit you are brainwashed because you confuse science with television, government propaganda, and corporate grifting - can't tell the difference - and you DON'T CARE that 100% of their doomsday predictions have proved FLATLY INCORRECT.
You're saying you don't care about the truth.
That's what you're saying.
Only fools believe the globe is about to become uninhabitable because of alleged manmade catastropic global warming. Only gullible simpletons, or people with an anxiety disorder, or power freaks, buy into the whole pile of obvious hype and propaganda.
The proof is that you can't even state your case without wallowing in contradicdtion and absurdity HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!
Or stop believing the bullshit lies. I cannot understand how people can be so damned gullible especially in a time where information is readily available. Just a note Einstein, the earth's climate has always changed and we humans have minimal impact on anything.
Don't forget to mention Eunice Foote - who discovered CO2 atmospheric warming earlier that Tyndall by three years. But she was a girl and back then, boys ruled.
It's around 200 years ago. And now we are here 😢
Aarhenius was first but he concluded CO2 And water vapor tend to MODERATE temperatures, so Greta quickly discarded his pioneering work.
@@robertmarmaduke186 first how? Eunice Foote's discoveries (in her 1850's experiments!), "revealed that certain gases, including carbon dioxide (CO2), warm when exposed to sunlight. She hypothesized that higher CO2 levels in the past would have significantly affected Earth’s temperature, foreshadowing our understanding of the greenhouse effect." Arrhenius didn't make note of this phenomena until 1896. So not sure of your claim that Arrhenius was first.
In fact, Foote, without specific evidence and purely by intellectual conjecture, was absolutely correct! As during a much earlier geologic period (the Eocene), CO2 levels were higher and the climate temperature back then was also substantially higher (not like 1.5 degrees C that we talk about today - but more like 5 degrees C!)
So, the issue with the planet is not its absolute temperature, but the rate of change of temperature. Most every creature I can think of has lived for 10s of millions of years in our moderate climate. They have become acclimated. But if, in the blink of an eye (on an evolutionary or geologic timescale,) has to adapt to a 3 or 4 degree C change within a few centuries... that's the end of that group of animals and plants. Humans included. Got it?
And yes, Arrhenius did note that, "in an atmosphere with no carbon dioxide, Earth’s surface temperature would plummet by about 21 degrees Celsius." But we live in an atmosphere that is now around 425 ppm of CO2, substantially higher than when either Foote and Arrhenius were alive. Thus, global sea and surface air temperatures are substantially higher than their 1800s due to the impact of substantially higher CO2 and methane atmospheric concentrations... DUE TO HUMAN CONTRIBUTIONS OF THOSE GASES. It is a simple fact.
As for water, you should do a little reading into the impact of water vapor in the atmosphere.... and how the small incremental impact of CO2 and methane tend to occlude an important portion of what is called the “water-vapor window.”
I know you want to parrot the newsfeed of your favorite propaganda channel. You want to deny the reality of where the world is headed. You want to be able to tell your children - “everything is OK, just keep your head down and get a job in finance - because then you can afford a nice lifestyle.”
But I tell you, there isn’t any amount of praying to a god or a god’s son that will alter our path to 4 or 5 degrees C increase in global temperatures. No technology will save us. So, enjoy your time here. Good luck to you and your kids.
@@robertmarmaduke186 what has Greta to do with this topic?

WE, along with our kids and grandkids 😢
The problem is not the unwilling but rather those who even understand /ignore the facts
Even if we know this, we all need to make action plans. And, with too much conspiracy theories going on (which might hold truth to some degrees), we do need to plan step by step shifts into more energy sufficient, environmentally friendly way of living. Just fighting with those who hold authorities is like babies with tantrum. We need more data, planning, and brilliant problem solving skills!!!! No more just yelling for change. We need change IN OURSELVES & IN OUR MINDS!!! All of us need to use each individual skills to come to advance in this new era 🌏🌎🌍
@@orca1717 we have already enough data for this but we don't do it
@@imtheeastgermanguy5431 Well, but the data is conflicting, and also manipulated (funded largely) by companies with power, and no one can deny that facts. Also, each one of us can’t just do things the better way when the better way is more costly (in the time of inflation, we are naturally less inclined to do that.)
It’s a systematic problem that every each of us needs to chip in for the better ideas. You can’t just blame the big corporations or government. “WE” are you and me, and everyone on earth.

"During heat waves, Lytton is often the hottest spot in Canada despite its location north of 50°N in latitude. In three consecutive days of June 2021, it broke the all-time record for Canada's highest temperature, ending at 49.6 °C (121.3 °F) on June 29. This is the highest temperature ever recorded north of 45°N and higher than the all-time records for Europe and South America. The next day (June 30), a wildfire swept through the valley, destroying the majority of the town."
Curious what your June has been like this year, and I’m aware there isn’t necessarily consistency.
Thanks for your share!
"nah it's only geo engineering, cloud seeding and haarp..!"
@@imtheeastgermanguy5431 Climate change is IRREVERSABLE! Get it? The temps will NEVER GO DOWN - unless the CO2 already emitted is TAKEN OUT OF THE AIR! Our future generations can expect a "hothouse Earth", like during the dinosaur age - and this age will last for a long, long, long time.
@@sydfrissell I get it but I'm not sure if we can reverse it. It's a huge effort but it's possible. I guess if the climate change is going faster than there are no more future generations
In other words an extreme WEATHER event. It soared above 98°F in Fairbanks every summer under the Midnight sun...but NOT the last two years of Summer With No Summer. *Magic CO2!*
The local climate predictions might change entirely if the AMOC stops. Then the northern hemisphere will more likely plunge into an ice age. Both warm or cold scenarios are terrifying and both can happen sequentially. Every life form will be slowly adapting to the warming and then will be hit by freezing cold. It's a possibility looking more likely by the day. We don't know for sure what will hapoen, but dramatic changes will happen one way or another and no one is able to adapt to such rapid dramatic changes, especially not the plants and animals and ecosystems we depend on for surviving.
When, not if.
I heard if the amoc is going down Europe will be colder but probably not a ice age, maybe I winter it's harder or longer but in summer there are heavy storms and rain are going on. The German scientist "harald lesch" said it like this "imagine in winter when it's cold outside and warm inside, look at the windows how much moisture is there. That will happen to us when Europe is cooling down and the rest of the earth is heating up, those rainfalls we won't experience!" I guess that he is right
Every species alive today survived dice Ages and tropical waves of 4,000ppm CO2. Why be such a drama queen?
@@robertmarmaduke186 "Every species alive today survived dice Ages and tropical waves of 4,000ppm CO2. Why be such a drama queen?" Regarding the first point, that's misleading and irrelevant. Humans are currently warming the planet ~20 times faster than it usually warms when coming out of an ice age. It is that SPEED of temperature change that makes it so lethal--species don't have the time to adapt or migrate. For example, oak trees are not able to walk 1/4 mile a year, but if temperature change is happening 20-50 times more slowly, where their acorns can make it 50-75 feet from the trunk of the tree.
Regarding the second point, NO, they didn't. Global CO2 levels are now the highest they have been in 14 million years; neither humans nor many other species on Earth have ever seen CO2 levels this high. Furthermore, if you are going to look at CO2 charts vs. time, you would be well advised to look at extinction charts vs. time too, because large changes in CO2 levels have been THE main "kill mechanism" for the many extinction events in Earth's history. I always laugh when climate skeptics make a big deal of the "explosion of life" that happened during the Cambrian period "with very high CO2" levels. Those folks don't seem to know that a) the explosion of life was all in the oceans; there was no life on land, b) the largest living things were ~16 inches long, c) the explosion of life appears to have happened because of rising oxygen levels, and d) CO2 levels were lower for most of the Cambrian Period but when they got very high at the end of the Cambrian Period, that triggered a major extinction event.
The science is very clear that humans are pushing the whole web of life toward catastrophic collapse in 4 different ways simultaneously, so pointing out the risks from AGW isn't being a drama queen, it's actually being understated regarding the threats we face.
Take care.
@@karlwheatley1244 Submarines have CO2 levels that won't be reached until year 3000. So they are NOT lethal to species. At previous "+1.2°C Since Industrialization" or +0.006°C per year even CLAIMED BUT VERIFIED "+1.8°C by 2100" or measly +0.04°C per year NONE of the extreme weather events *NONE* can be blamed on increasing CO2. *That is ANTI-Science fraud.*
The "official" 443ppm CO2 or whatever is bollux, there are readings from other sampling locations as low as 235ppm, that have been taken down so as not to change the narrative. Their 'Hottest Day on Record!' said in the report you didn't read (...climate model simulation...). The track record for all 37 climate models is ABYSSMAL forecasting or hindcasting. *GIGO*
We were warned. We did nothing. We deserve this.
Sea level appears to be rising at a small 3mm per year. Atolls in the Pacific nations of the Marshall Islands and Kiribati, as well as the Maldives archipelago in the Indian Ocean, have risen up to 8 percent in size (Ford and Kench, 2020). 89% of the globe’s islands and 100% of large islands have stable or growing coasts (Duvat, 2019). No island larger than 10ha decreased in size.
As regards NOAA tide gauge data, let's look at some examples from around the world. N.B. All sites show a linear Relative Sea Level Trend: Kanmen, China 2.40mm/yr; Sydney, Australia 0.75mm/yr; Ferandina Beach, Florida 2.20mm/yr; Los Angeles, California 1.04mm/yr; Mera, Japan 3.8mm; Cascais, Portugal 1.32mm/yr; Newlyn, UK 1.94mm/yr.
Jevrejeva, et al (2014) estimated 2 mm/year (± 0.3), and Church and White (2006) estimated 1.7mm/year (± 0.3). So that's a total rise of between 126 and 151mm (less than 6 inches) from 2024 to the end of the century.
Or try PSMSL data: Kwajalein (Marshall Islands) 1.95mm/yr; Maldives (Indian Ocean) 3.21mm/yr; Lautoka (Fiji Islands, Pacific Ocean) 3.50mm/yr; Port Elisabeth (South Africa) 2.34mm/yr.
Remember, all linear over many decades, or more than a century.
Anyway, if you prefer satellite data NOAA's trend was +3.0mm/year Global Mean Sea Level (1993-2022), again linear last time I looked for each set of satellite data (but hey, it may have accelerated in the last month).
NASA satellite data (1993-present) for Global Mean Sea Level shows a rise of 3.3mm per year. That's the same as two stacked penny coins.
There is no relationship to the exponential increase in CO2 in the atmosphere. It's going to be decades before even your big toe is submerged.
Increase in CO2 is not really 'exponential' and certainly not in any case from the Western nations. IEA published fossil fuel data show the meager 3% contribution from humans is mostly India/China, the rest is terrestrial or insects or rotting soil and would still continue to increase CO2 levels at 97% as fast if humans ceased to exist.

Between 1961 and 2021 global cereal production increased 250% and cereal yield increased over 200%. Land used for cereal hardly increased (Data from World Bank, FAO/UN). This is the only time in human history that you are more likely to be overfed rather than underfed. We should be thankful we were borne into an age of such abundance. A US DoE study (Taylor & Schlenker, 2021) estimated that a 1 ppm increase in CO2 led to an increase of 0.4%, 0.6% and 1% in yield for corn, soybeans and wheat, respectively, and that CO2 increase was the main driver of the 500% yield growth in corn since 1940. Global tomato production has set a record each year for the past 10 years. Banana production has doubled in 20 years. All 10 of the largest sugar crops in global history occurred during the past 10 years. All 10 of the 10 largest rice crop years occurred during the past 10 years (UNFAO). 2023 was another record cereal crop.
500% yield in corn yield due to increase in CO2 is patently untrue! In fact, it’s been demonstrated that corn is adapted to the CO2 levels of the pre-industrial environment and cannot take advantage of extra CO2.
@parrisgjerde9212
Why don't you follow the sources I have referenced, and/or provide some references to support your position?
@parrisgjerde9212 Try these for size:
The Earth has greened by 15% or more in a human lifetime. "The greening of the planet over the last two decades represents an increase in leaf area on plants and trees equivalent to the area covered by all the Amazon rainforests. There are now more than two million square miles of extra green leaf area per year"(NASA, 2019). Observations of Earth’s vegetative cover since the year 2000 by NASA’s Terra satellite show a 10% increase in vegetation in the first 20 years of the century. Global tree canopy cover increased by 2.24 million square kilometers (865,000 square miles) between 1982 and 2016 (Nature, 2018). As well as human intervention, the reasons for this include forests expanding polewards aided by additional CO2 and a slight rise in temperature. Increased CO2 causes this in two ways: it has a direct fertilising effect (the CFE), and it increases drought tolerance by reducing stomata. This greening of the Earth due to CO2 is now "an indisputable fact" (Chen et al, 2024). In fact, 55.15% of those areas greening have been doing so at an accelerated rate since 2001. Since the start of the Industrial Revolution the Earth's primary productivity has increased by more than 30% (Campbell et al, 2017 and Haverd et al, 2020).
Climate change is IRREVERSABLE! Get it? The temps will NEVER GO DOWN - unless the CO2 already emitted is TAKEN OUT OF THE AIR! Our future generations can expect a "hothouse Earth", like during the dinosaur age - and this age will last for a long, long, long time.
There has been a 10% decline in natural disasters since 2000 (CRED). Normalised disaster losses have decreased since 1990 and human mortality due to extreme weather has decreased by more than 95% since 1920, so you're 50 times less likely to die from a climate-related disaster in a world that's 1°C warmer than 100 years ago (EM-DAT, CRED/UC). Deaths from drought have declined by 99%!
I kinda like global warming. Not one day of 30 degree weather in the west of Canada yet where I live, farmers have had to irrigate barely because of the rain. Soil conditions are crazy good right now. Harvests have been better each year for the past 10 years according to farmers. Moisture has been the same after every El Niño event here. Just love it

Deforestation is increasing global warming. We need to plant more trees to reduce carbon dioxide levels.
If only it was that simple. Trees under 20 years old actually emit more CO2 than they absorb, according to Oregon State University. Just digging a hole to plant a tree releases more CO2 from the organisms there than the tree will absorb in several years. What we need to do above all else is preserve old-growth forests because that's where the heavy CO2-lifting is done.

The sun is accumalating dust from the galactic spiral arm which will cause it to micronova maybe in the 2030s or 40s. All a part of the 12000 year disaster cycle. We have the jovians just starting there alignment culminating in September giving our solar system a second toroidal magnetic field this leaves us in front of the sun with all the other planets behind us.
