No unprecedented volcano eruptions in the pacific = no weeks long heat wave.

Last year come this time we had a good ten days over 110, this year back to normal 95-100ish every day of the summer.

But naah it was existential irreversible global climate warming and it’s the fault of developed nations and most of all maga people.

Global warming refers to the long-term increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities, primarily the emission of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and nitrous oxide (N₂O).

These emissions come from burning fossil fuels, deforestation, industrial processes, and agricultural practices. The greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to a warming effect known as the greenhouse effect.

Consequences of global warming include more frequent and severe weather events, rising sea levels, melting polar ice, and disruptions to ecosystems and biodiversity.

To mitigate global warming, a comprehensive approach is needed, involving individuals, communities, businesses, and governments. Here are key actions:

1. **Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions**:
- Transition to renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydroelectric power.
- Increase energy efficiency in homes, buildings, and transportation.
- Promote the use of electric and hybrid vehicles.

2. **Sustainable Practices**:
- Support sustainable agriculture and forestry practices.
- Reduce, reuse, and recycle materials to minimize waste.
- Encourage plant-based diets to lower methane emissions from livestock.

3. **Policy and Regulation**:
- Implement carbon pricing mechanisms like carbon taxes or cap-and-trade systems.
- Enforce regulations to limit emissions from industries and power plants.
- Support international agreements and commitments like the Paris Agreement.

4. **Innovative Technologies**:
- Invest in research and development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies.
- Develop and deploy new technologies for renewable energy and energy storage.

5. **Conservation and Restoration**:
- Protect and restore forests, wetlands, and other natural carbon sinks.
- Promote urban green spaces and reforestation projects.

6. **Education and Advocacy**:
- Raise awareness about the causes and impacts of global warming.
- Advocate for climate-friendly policies and practices.
- Encourage community involvement and action on climate initiatives.


By adopting these strategies, collectively we can significantly reduce the impact of global warming and move towards a more sustainable and resilient future.


The main issue I have with this is the FACT that "geoengineering" is left completely out of the conversation when it comes to "Global Warming". So arguably one of the biggest factors is conveniently left out. Stratospheric Aerosol Injection? Solar Radiation management? This is scientist trying to play God and LOSING. They are playing Russian roulette with our planets climate support systems. Did you or anyone you know get to "vote" on what we should do or did they just go and do what they were going to do anyway?

There is no way to undo what we have already done to the planet. The only thing we can do is salvage what will be left. Sounds harsh but I'm not talking about "2050-2075-2100" I'm talking about right here right now. Our species will be lucky to survive the next decade.

Going to outer space is total delusion. "Yea let's go to Mars and geoengineer it because we fucked up our planet!". It'll be cheap. It'll be feasible. It'll "insure the survival of our species". Sounds like people who live in fear of uncertainty and fear of death.

I get both sides of the "climate debate". If we want to stop it. Stop ALL of it(not just this country makes a pledge). Guess what though? Can't stop it at all because that would mean the immediate deaths of billions of people who live off the fossil fuel built society we sponge off of.

Everyone's all talk. We 1st world nations will continue to destroy the planets life support systems until the bitter end to support our society's "lifestyle".

Our kids and grandkids will live on a mostly dead planet not the "teeming with life one" we grew up on.

Only humans try and control nature. The result. Death and annihilation.

Global warming is fake and we need to drastically increase the atmospheric CO2 levels as is.
What should our concern is particulate matter and pollution.
We need to return to glass bottles, and products made of glass.

"Global Warming" is not fake bud.

You can't have billions of vehicles, power plants, etc. etc. and do "virtually nothing" to the planet.

The whole argument that it's all a part of "solar maximums/minimums" is dumb as fuck too.

We are literally spraying the stratosphere with aluminum nanoparticulate to mitigate "solar radiation".

Am I saying "Go Green!"? No. It's way to fucking late for that.

We've destroyed our planets life support systems in the geologic blink of an eye and continue to do so at an ever increasing rate.

The only way to prevent the biosphere from total collapse would be to do a "FULL STOP". Humanity is incapable of such a thing.

The industries responsible for destroying our planet will continue to profit and invest in the green energy that won't work just to make it seem like they care. They don't.

If you told the average person that in the next 10 years we will experience an "abrupt climate collapse" they would regurgitate the same talking points everyone does. "Global warming is fake!". "Planets totally fine watch me drink this beer!"

Ever seen the documentary "Chasing Ice"? How about "Planet of the Humans"?

Buying into "group think" and the whole notion that some genius somewhere will figure it out is total delusion. That's where the science is. We fucked up the planet but don't worry some super genius will invent a science to get us out of it!!!

Come on bro really? Can't tell that almost all insects are dead. Can't tell by walking into a forest that most of the wildlife is dead. The silence is deafening.

I always find it amusing that there are people out there that legitimately believe that weather patterns are being man made somehow. Every time you see a storm breaking records you get these nutters out in full force( see the strongest wind speed on earth ever recorded earlier this year from the Greensburg Iowa tornado, which by the way was a very beautiful and horrifyingly strong tornado, the video on its nuts.) claiming that it's all staged. Like yeah man the derechos that literally destroy billions in crops every so often are man made? Rofl for what reason.

Yes you can, you have no concept of how small all those things are compared to the unoccupied space in the atmosphere.
And no I don't watch stupid Disney Documentaries, al gore clearly sold you a fucking bridge in the early 2000's.

There are jumbo jets (airplanes) dumping literal TONS of pollution into the atmosphere.
If this was actually a global crisis, flying would be grounded.

The kicker and it's funny, climate change politicians who fly around in their planes.

Neither are "Disney Documentaries". They are independent films. I don't expect someone who is ignorant of atmospheric sciences to actually know anything about it or watch documentaries relevant to the subject we are discussing.

"The unoccupied space in the atmosphere". Reach further bro lol.

I was against Al Gore long before he made his silly documentary.

You are making the assumption that I got my information from idiots. I did not.

It's you who is jumping on a "Republican" shoved narrative. Not me.

I'm not some climate doomist or "save the trees" hippy. I did the research.

People like you use the terms "Global Warming/Global Cooling" because they were given to you by the people who "sold you a bridge".

You want to believe human beings aren't responsible for the die off of millions of species through are intense rape of the planet. You want to pretend that we should open more coal plants and drill more oil because "they" told you "there's still a bunch of unoccupied space in the atmosphere". You are the one who believes bullshit. The atmosphere and the planet is one living/moving system and it's not in good shape. The single biggest factor fucking everything up is "US".

You saying "there's unoccupied space in the atmosphere" may be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Do some research and get back to me. Independent research.

"Global Warming/Global Cooling" are terms created by the current scientific body. Terms that put you in the same ideological box as politics. You either believe one or the other.

The Earth's life support systems are much more complex then that and it's the synergistic toxicity that's doing most the damage. Our governments coordinate these projects because if you EFFECT one part of the Earth atmosphere you immediately effect the REST of the system. That's why geoengineering dumping MILLIONS of tons of aluminum nanoparticulate is administered by most of the G7 countries as well as non G7 countries.

So our soils are all ACIDIC. Are trees are dying because the roof canopies are latent with chemicals and tree stomata's are closing because it's so bad they can barely perform their function of photosynthesis. That's why forest fires burn with more intensity(incendiary metals like aluminum covering everything). You can go anywhere on Earth and find the "forever chemicals". But the best indicator is just walking around in nature and seeing that most trees are in a state of dying. Insect populations down 90%. Fish populations plummeting. Small mammals barely surviving. Bird populations down.

Basically everything besides "humans" aren't doing good at all but because the human body is resilient we "THINK" everything is fine. It's not.

Then look around at your family and friends and think of the people who died recently. Cancer? Respiratory issues? Cardiovascular issues? That's because we are breathing in all this garbage with every breathe we take and it bioaccumulates in the human body.

Because I KNOW what my governmet is doing has an adverse effect on the health of my loved ones and the creatures I once enjoyed being with in the woods I will take a stand.

Not a "NUTTER THUMBERG" stand either. I'm not virtue signaling. I'm telling you through 2 decades of studying this that everything has gone to shit and our governments(all political parties worldwide) are complicit in all of it.

When shit does hit the fan it'll be too late(it's already too late) why do you think they are still doing it? Ignorance and to make it seem like the situation isn't DIRE.

"My government is being honest with me about the state of the planet!!!" Said NO ONE capable of critical thinking EVER.
