Re: What happened to climate change?

Ed,

Blah blah blah blah. That's all been looked at and it has nothing to do with fossil fuel burning, which is what has been happening for the last 100 or so years. The average global temperature has already risen and we have the capability to prevent the impending disasters that continued temperature rise would cause. Interesting to see that you care so little about your fellow humans.

Aloha,
Celeste

From 900 AD to 1800 AD, there was a Medieval Warm Period followed by the Little Ice Age.? Prior to recorded history, there were several ice ages.? I believe the earth is going through a warm spell, but not that it's all caused by an increase of a couple hundred parts per million too much carbon dioxide, and that is excess CO2 is in turn caused by wealthy people's motorcars and jet airplanes.

Ahh the britannica, it was one of the "important" purchases when I was young.

As to weather change, I follow two rules: there are some macro patterns or whatever that have changed in the last 50 years (or less), like receding icemarkers in Antartica, and the local small clearly human driven changes, like deforestation or overusage of soiles that generate barren places in just a couple of years. Both are easily seen by any individual that just takes a look and verified by any number of scientific and economical studies.

What seems to be the new discussion is what causes the first macro changes: is it human driven? or is a natural phase? Can we do anything about it?

i guess it's hard to accept human influence on a wordly scale.

When the ozone "hole" appeared in Antartica and later closed ?did we do any of that?

Are we really causing the general temperatures to rise (at least in Buenos Aires, it has been over the last 100 years or so)?

I believe we are, but I guess there's still room for faith and cherrypicking the science that will support one explanation or the other.

Ed,

What exactly makes you think they were wrong? Extremes are the hallmark of climate change.

Now we're back to floods and mudslides, as usual, with multi-million dollar homes built on dirt cliffs sliding into the ocean again.

How could a consensus of climate experts possibly be wrong?!
