Climate change “not as bad as they thought”


Recommended Posts

“The science is settled”

oops

It predicted that the impact could be up to 45 per cent less intense than is widely accepted.

But the study emerged as other scientists said winter waves pounding the Scottish and Irish coasts have grown grow by up to 5ft 6in (1.7metres) over the past 70 years.

Rising sea levels and more intense storms are in line with global warming forecasts.

The study questioning the future intensity of climate change was carried out by American climatologist Judith Curry and UK mathematician Nick Lewis.

It is based on analysing the warming effect of greenhouse gases and other drivers of climate change, from the mid 19th century until 2016.

It forecast that future warming will be between 30 per cent and 45 per cent lower than suggested by simulations carried out by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel one Climate Change.

Well I guess Florida will only be covered by 3 ft of water instead of 6.  :lol:   Oh wait that never happened either.

Settled science is a political talking point, and an oxymoron. Are they really that stupid or just pushing an agenda...hmmm. They discover something new every day.

The science that the Earth is warming, and that man is contributing to that is settled.  Curry doesn't argue against that premise.  Simply that she thinks the modeling is off a bit.  Hell she has claimed that warming will cause hurricane increases so bad places will become "uninsurable".  Talk about an alarmist!  :lol:

So she's been wrong in the past and could be wrong on MMGW in general.  :lol:

Or her model could be wrong and we will warm at twice the rate she published!  :lol:

Neal

Or you could be twice as dumb as we know you are and just as :wrong:

And the people of New York City will only need hip waders rather than boats to get around.

30 to 40 percent is “off a bit”. :lol: 

This is not science, it’s a narrative with wild guessing.

What do you think of her prediction that hurricanes will become so bad that places will become uninsurable?

Just shows you how fucking insane the Paris accord is, they think they can manage 1 1/2 degree rise when they are off like 40% on anything :lmao:

We always have more to learn.  Learning should never stop.

What are you babbling about, use English FFS.

Keep up with current events and you will be capable of comprehending WTF is going on.  Instead you live in an idealistic vacuum devoid of the realities going on around you.   South Dakota does have its advantages.......:thumbsup:

 They told us 10+ years ago that hurricane and tornado activity was going to increase and they were going to be more violent if you look at the numbers the activity actually declined. Last year was the first time we’ve had a very active hurricane season in over 20 years. If you look at what happened Houston that same storm happened to them roughly 80 years ago. I believe these storms go in cyclesI believe these storms go in cycles

Just narrow your scope to this thread.  Your previous post didn't make sense.  Can you attempt to convey your ideas in another, more understandable way?

It’s hilarious... Neal is using non alarmist, science based, rational discussion. And everyone here is making him look like he is the retard for doing so. Mmgw is a thing that 99% of the scientific community agree on. Shit, 99% of the carbon producers agree on it... The scale and danger have never been settled. You guys are acting like whether it exists and whether it is going to end the world are the same thing. They’re two separate discussions. Unreal..
