Has the weather/climate changed where you live?

[MDC 7,131]

2023 was the world’s warmest year on record, by far.

 

[Reality 3,098]

No, it's focking cold in the winter and hot in the summer. Like always.

Hottest year in recorded history! Lol, that 1 cracks me up.

I do have an unhealthy pleasure when it comes to highlighting the stupidity, and arrogance, of the climate nazi church.

Here is but one, of a host of focking morons who think the climate never changes, and when it does they arrogantly assume its "us" and we can further control it.....

How frightening to see the climate change before our eyes – is this the last New York snow I’ll see?

Because, well, there have never been undulations of snow fall in the past.....or have there...

That didn't age well; I just texted my daughter (lives in Manhattan) and it is snowing again today.  

[MDC 7,131]

Snowing heavily in Philly this week for the first time in 3 years. ️

If it snows...It's climate change.  If it doesn't snow, it's climate change.

Hard to keep up with it all

[seafoam1 2,803]

Anyone notice a trend? Yeah, it's all over the place. Up and down for kver 100 years. 

Snowiest winters in Illinois:

• 1979 with 44.5 inches
• 1978 with 44.4 inches
• 1912 with 39.5 inches
• 2014 with 39.4 inches
• 1960 with 38.6 inches

Of course it's climate change, because that's what the climate has been doing since the beginning of the Earth. 

They tried the scary terms "Global Cooling" in the 70s, then "Global Warming" in the 2010s, then since both of those failed they went generic fear tactic with "Climate Change ".

If the climate didn't change for 10 years or so, that would be worrisome.

On the one hand I believe in being good stewards of the earth, and we do what we can to conserve in ways that matter (mostly conserve water in the desert).

On the other hand, it's pretty clear to me that anthropogenic climate change (ACC) is a religion as much if not more so than science.  I've heard it said that people who don't believe in God will find some laic thing to believe in; that humans need to believe in some higher cause.  Interestingly, I googled and found data which strongly shows a (negative) correlation between importance of God and belief in ACC.

Quote

As importance of religion wanes, belief that climate change is caused by humans increases. Among Americans who say that religion is the most important thing in their lives, 39% say that climate change is caused by humans, compared with 56% of those who say religion is one among many important things, 65% who say religion is not as important, and 78% who say religion is not important. In contrast, 40% of Americans who say that religion is the most important thing in their lives say that climate change is mostly caused by natural patterns in the earth’s environment, compared with 33% of Americans who say religion is one among many important things, 26% who say religion is not as important, and 16% who say religion is not important. Finally, 20% of Americans who say that religion is the most important thing in their lives are more likely than those who say religion is one among many important things (10%), who say religion is not as important (8%), and who say religion is not important (5%) to say that there is no solid evidence that climate change is happening.

When the ACC church leaders show an interest in actually solving the problem on a significant scale (e.g., through nuclear, and natural gas as a stopgap) vs. punishing mankind, it will move more into the realm of science.

Climate Change made Algore a very rich man.

Sticking with the religion comparison, the eagerness of the ACC cult to say "the weather is [hot/cold/dry/wet/windy/calm] so therefore, climate change" reminds me of a religious zealot finding a bible quote to justify every action.   

That being said, the strategy of the cult leaders to change their message to "extreme weather" was brilliant; it channels that part of humans that wants to believe in the occult, things like horoscopes, palm reading, etc.  Because it is very easy to believe that the weather has been a little more [insert above word] lately.

I will say that I sure hope you guys telling us that climate change isn't real, isn't a big deal, is just a new religion, etc. are proven correct. This is one of those things I'll be happy to be shown the error of my ways about.

Nobody has said it isn’t real. But it’s headed by a bunch of tards who need the fear in order to cash a paycheck. Man adapts. Less people every year die of climate related issues.

I am talking about man-made climate change. The earths climate has been changing for 5 billion years.

I knew it was a scam when they made co2 the target. Our planet is greener that it has been in recorded history and ppms are only 400 ish. You wanna solve world hunger pump more carbon into the atmosphere and plants will produce like crazy. Optimal plant carbon intake during flowering and fruiting is 900-1200 ppm. 
 

now we can do that clean preferably.  No coal. But ng is amazing and so is fracking technology.  Also graphene is a solution nobody discusses

Good. Let me help you.

Show me that climate change is not the norm since the beginning of the planet.

[Voltaire 5,202]

Yes and yes.

We left Michigan on December 27th and winter hadn't arrived yet. Autumn kept holding on and holding on. I was thinking, "this is really mild for a Michigan December." I'd been in China for the 21 before that so it was quite a stark difference.

Then the drive down to Florida the weather remained the same the whole time, it never got warmer. Our first three weeks in Florida has felt exactly the same as out last three weeks Michigan did.

Yeah, weather changes. Can't believe you have never lived through that.

Currently it's 12 degrees in Michigan and 70 in Florida. Everything gets back to the norm.

Carbon dioxide makes up 0.04% of the world’s atmosphere.

another thing to factor is to polar shift that is currently ongoing

Right. And that isn't to be related to the "climate change" hysteria that has spread across the globe by the likes of John Kerry. 

When solar radiation and cosmic rays threaten to penetrate Earth’s surface, a vast magnetic field generated within Earth’s outer core safeguards the planet by deflecting harmful space energy. This is known as the magnetosphere. 

Scientists know that the internal forces that generate Earth’s magnetic field can change and that the strength of the field oscillates over time. This can lead to gradual shifts in the intensity and location of Earth’s magnetic north and south poles and even reversals where Earth’s magnetic poles trade places. 

But are these geomagnetic events responsible for extreme weather, extinction, and even disasters? Claims that Earth’s magnetic field is responsible for climate change are rampant online, but scientists say the theory has no merit.

“At this time there aren't any credible mechanisms that could make it a possibility,” says Gavin Schmidt, a climatologist and director of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York. “It's not that we're ruling out magnetic effects on climate without thinking about it, we collectively have thought about it, and it's been found wanting.”
