Bigger more powerful waves are a bad thing because?

[SaxxonWoods]

Big waves mean we must return to Stone Age life.

Bigger waves mean more rescues and mouth-to-mouths!

As an East Coast surfer, my n = 1 study tells me that we had better hurricane swells about 10-20 years ago. 1998, an El Nino year, we had some good waves from the tropics. I think 2005 and 2010 were also good years.

My issue with all of these theoretical studies and the news that covers them is that there is never discussion of the uncertainties. What is man’s ability to accurately measure global wave activity? What about prior to the 70s? What are the error bars?

A new study theorizes ...

At least they are honest on that part. They never show the studies nor any data to back up their theories.

Now here's a useful statistic:

... a separate study shed light on how much energy that has been put into the Earth's oceans over the past 150 years — the equivalent of an atomic bomb explosion every second for 150 years.

How did we ever survive that ?

[laplata]

Wow, you did good for your first time. Lol

[EdnaMode]

Good question.

[I want the USA back]

Climate change, if it exists, is an effect, not a cause, and so can’t cause anything.

Here comes the sun, doo doo do,
Here comes the sun,
and I said "It's all right"
Doo, do, do, doot, doo doo doo doo doo dooo.

a whole 0.41 % increase? wow.

maybe I could body surf now in Hawaii, all I did was float like a cork before..

A new study theorizes ...

What is the name of this study? Who sponsored this study? Where can I find this study? Does this study pass the requirements and disciplines of Scientific Method?

The Media equivalent to “high level sources say.”

Per NASA file the ice cap is melting due to a reg fungi not global warming.

[ETL]

Who the heck added “click bait” to the keywords, and why?

[justa-hairyape]

Absolutely false. The trade winds have less strength during an El Nino.
