@terrychristian Dave at the pub has about as much ability to predict the climate 20 years from now than the researchers with the expensive models using garbage data. They just act like the know. Always the "could, may, and possibly" modifiers are used.

@Jurgen479325 @volcaholic1 US firms spent $277,000 per year per company on anti-climate lobbying v. $185,000 per year per firm on pro-climate lobbying. Sure, but that it a pittance to the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act's $391 billion into climate change and an additional $7 to 9B in climate change programs

@ethanmwolf Apparently hating Jews is shamefully a political positive these days.

@JamesJ4309 @R_H_Ebright The media doesn't want admit Trump was correct in his concern and they don't want to admit they were complicit in ghosting the story in 2020 and ratioing those that pointed out the obvious

@R_H_Ebright @alisonannyoung If only Michael Crichten was still alive he would have a Netfix series on this

@R_H_Ebright A sociopathic grifter plays up the risk to obtain grant funding, then ignores that risk and cuts safety measures to save costs once granted.

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@BioSRP Just a matter of time until they kill us all. How many warning signs can they give us that will be ignored?

The media and academics will drone on about the lack of funding creating higher risks while they create and handle viral monsters like toy poodles. Reckless insanity.

@tundrafan76 What if delay is the US strategy? Every day is $500M in lost revenue for Iran. Knowing they won't conceed, you destroy their ability to fund the regime

@fjc0000 @simonmaechling As have I It's not corruption, it's incentive-based behavior. Like much of academia, it has become too big and expensive. Feeding the beast takes priority over good science too often.

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@fjc0000 @simonmaechling The problem is that everyone has an agenda so there's a vacuum of validity that allows foolishness

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@ProfRayWills As the money continues to dry up, we are going to see more unhinged prognostications, more shades of red used in maps, and more venomous language

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@terrychristian What's laughable is that they use a 1.9 figure to suggest their model is accurate to 0.1 degree.

It absolutely cannot do that. They never disclose the massive assumptions and adjustments made by these models

It's garbage

@terrychristian The addition of CO2 to the atmoshere is the equivalent of adding fewer than 2 fans to Michigan Stadium every 10 years over the past century.

1926 (306) 2026 (427)
Increase of 121 ppm
12.1 parts per 100K
0.121 parts per year
1.21 per 100K per decade

Michgan Stadium: 107K

@Rainmaker1973 For people arguing that water used for irrigation and data centers withdrawn for underground aquifers isn't an issue because the water cycle is an open system:

Take a 10K tank full of water, pump it out, then leave the 3in wide fill open and see long it takes rain to refill it.

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@JunkScience "Severe, hard-to-control blazes in densely populated areas like Los Angeles drove the year’s record losses" because they are all ignited by human activities. Encroachment of human development, arson, and poor fire mitigation practices are a far greater factor than climate.

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@feelsdesperate Because modern politics is all about fundraising and branding, and not winning elections. If things continue in this direction, the Dems will kneecap Platner in time to insert a different candidate before the cutoff and beg donors for even more money they can spend.

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@ProfBillMcGuire We have a far greater ability to restrict wilderness interface encroachment, conduct fire risk mitigation, reduce accidental and intentional human ignition events.

Focusing on climate is just a funding ploy for climate scientists at the dubious University of East Anglia.

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@ProfBillMcGuire The researcher is trying to suggest that climate change is causing more affluent areas to burn, so even if fires are down, the risk from climate change is greater. The real reason noted, but not attributed to the main problem, is development encroachment and human ignitions.

[ECLOGITE1 @ECLOGITE110]

@DionHarper15 Shocking that the demonstratively wrong Paul Ehrlich was on the research team. Pretty much negates the findings
