The world could experience a year above 2°C of warming by 2029

Plants need CO2 to grow. Are they trying to starve them?

No, us.

Starving the plants are a means to and end.

[right way right]

The world could also burst into a nuclear fire ball.
Oh well.

Total BS brought to you by the man made climate cultist.

I recommend a Jim Jones type convention for all of them.

There is an 86 per cent chance that at least one of the next five years will breach the same threshold, according to the Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update, produced for the UN’s World Meteorological Organization (WMO).

I am hoping Trump will decide that the UN is not worth what we are pay them.

Why should we pay for this crap science?

Their choice of year for this gaslighting is ironic, because I predict we may be returning to ‘snowball Earth’ that year…

A 35.6 degree Fahrenheit rise in a single year?

I don't think so.

[Red Badger]

More BBQ! More outdoors stuff! More alligators!...............oh, wait.....................

[TheConservator]

Came here to say exactly that.

I guess the monkey’s that could fly out of our asses think alike.

[Vision]

It’s been a cold winter and spring in Maryland.

[Mastador1]

OH NO!! WE”RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!

AGAIN

[Robert DeLong]

My choice is: outright lying

Remember after Katrina...We were doomed...and Cat 5s would be the norm....and guess what...the next year was a huge bust and it's been that way since Katrina.

And you have to look at a lot of charts until you find a real one...like where it says that the Cat 5 lasted for 6 minutes...

I came upon a stat list at one point...and I lmao.

The Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption in Jan. 2022, resulted in an increase of global temperatures of 0.4 C, as much as the 30 year anomaly in satellite derived temperatures. If one natural event can cause warming equal to that of the 30 year record, what does that say about the supposed warming from rising CO2?
Hunga Tonga has dissipated and global temps should decrease in the next two years. The current +0.8 C anomaly should drop back to +0.4 C. +2.0 C above the 30 year average is not a reasonable projection. But these climate alarmists are not reasonable. They won’t tell you about Hunga Tonga. All it takes is one significant volcanic eruption to disrupt the equilibrium. But the climate has a wonderful way of bringing balance back into the system.
CO2 levels were 10-15 times higher in the past paleoclimate record and Earth did not suffer from a runaway greenhouse effect. If it did, we wouldn’t be here to talk about it.

Chris Hewitt at the WMO said there is still a window of opportunity to avoid the most dangerous effects of climate change, by radically cutting emissions to hold temperatures as close to the 1.5°C threshold as possible. “Every fraction of a degree matters,” he said.

Wow, that's really bad we had better do something quick!

Better tell the Chinese to stop their Coal Fired Power Plant construction campaign. 10 new coal fired plants per year.

I am sure that they will be more than happy to stop once you explain the dire consequences of their actions.

[central_va]

Could.

It’s 57 here in Upstate NY....In late May, we were already sweating in school...in the 1950s.

[beethovenfan]

.....or not.

[Fish Speaker]

I used to subscribe to this magazine but they became woke and I let my subscription lapse ...

[butlerweave]

but it’s freezing outside

Why was it hotter during dust bowl era?

How many years climate data you have? Earth is 4,500,000,000 years old. It had cycles of ice age and global warming million times already.
