99.9999% chance humans are causing global warming, and other science-based facts

FULL TITLE: 99.9999% chance humans are causing global warming, and other science-based facts on climate change for Earth Day.

Climate change is real and increasingly a part of our daily lives. New research and studies out in just the past six months highlight the latest facts about the human-caused shift to our global weather systems and its effects on our planet.

First among them, there's no longer any question that rising temperatures and increasingly chaotic weather are the work of humanity. There's a 99.9999% chance that humans are the cause of global warming, a February study reported. That means we've reached the "gold standard" for certainty, a statistical measure typically used in particle physics.

Study lead author Benjamin Santer of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California, told Reuters that “the narrative out there that scientists don’t know the cause of climate change is wrong."

“The children alive today, like my daughter who is 12, they’re going to see a dramatic transformation of climate. It’s already underway,” said study lead author Matt Fitzpatrick of the University of Maryland’s Center for Environmental Science.

Socialists, illegal aliens and other criminals cause global warming.

Correction: 99.9998% chance we don’t control the weather.

2011 World Series Texas Rangers v St Louis Cardinals, two times Texas had a 99.9% chance of winning the Series - ahead in the bottom of the inning, two outs, two strikes. They did not win.

Rather predicatble that these articles start about 2 weeks after the rain and snow stopped in California after the biggest winter in 122 years.

Oh wait, that was 2 years ago - 2016-17.

We just had another record busting snowfall winter, 2018-19.

The only part of California in drought is a down around El Centro...which is a god forsaken desert anyway. Drought is permanent there.

“Climate Change” - just another hoax from the Jussie Smollet Party, where EVERYTHING is a hoax.

And when the Ice Age ended, it was because primitive man killed all the Mammoths and thus began Global Warming.
Oh and women and minorities were hardest hit.

Climate change is real and increasingly a part of our daily lives.

The fact that they have to keep telling us it "Climate change is real", does in fact tell us quite the opposite. It isn't real it's made up phoney baloney bullsh*t.

Would you bet your paycheck on a weather forecast for tomorrow?

If not, then why should this country bet billions on global warming predictions that have even less foundation?

These “enviro-idiots” go out of their way to see who can come up with the most idiotic and hair-brained thought yet...

It’s a competition to see who can be the most stupid....

Well, it’s 100% for certain that it’s nothing but a liberal/progressive (communist) plot to end capitalism.

99.9999% chance humans are causing global warming

Actually this statement if correct. Since the only global warming demonstrated is when temperature recordings are artificially adjusted by humans. Humans are causing global warming. Humans can also correct global warming by removing the artificial adjustments. It would be a very inexpensive fix also.

That’s what this reads like.
