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.

I wonder how many people realize that the Left are ratcheting up the “emergency” level as a way of justifying future violence? They’ve dispensed with the long range dire warnings and are now talking about NOW. They are fanatics who will brook no discussion. They are moving toward a confrontation. ..

repeating lies over and over and over again doesn’t make them scientific facts- the only thing it does is convince low information self-guilt riddled people- unfortunately- the left learned long ago they could peddle self-guilt and the lie of climate change by repeating lies over and over again till the world believed it- they are liars- scam artists=- not scientists-

Wow. Science and our understanding of it is never that precise. Especially the micro level of something show massively huge.

There’s a 99.9999% certainty that more lying has been going on by the Left with regard to this issue, than regarding a democrat controlled Trump/Russian Collusion hearing.

Here’s a bunch of climate change stuff, of the
flavor we don’t get to see enough of, because of politicians
deliberately ignoring clear simple facts from real
scientists, then repeatedly summarizing dogma and hogwash
“facts” they are relying on.

Why is it that "Scientific Studies" sponsored by "Big Oil" are always suspect, due to who's funding them, but "Scientific Studies" sponsored by "Big Government" are never suspect?

There are more than a few scientists who now claim that there's a "Climate Change" religious orthodoxy which will destroy the careers of anyone who dares challenge the big government line that it's humans who cause "Climate Change," even though NYC is supposed to be underwater at this time. All they want is total control over the lives and activities of the population.

"Social Justice Warriors" have invaded even the hard sciences at many Universities and are twisting science into their own, twisted world outlook, much as did the "scientists" in Germany in the late 1930s and early 1940s. When The State drives scientific research with the funds to perform the research, the results will often be what The State not only expects, but demands.

it was because primitive man killed all the Mammoths and thus began Global Warming.

Because of "primitive man" and all the "primitive SUVs!"

I talked to someone about how as the Earth's polar ice cap was receding, so was the polar ice cap on Mars. Her response was, "It's because of all the SUVs!"

Any article that is so over the top that it says that there is a 99.9999% chance of something typically would be a parody. But with Global Warming / Climate Change, there is no such thing as parody.

This is propaganda from the Bovine Liberation Front in their desperate attempt to deflect attention away from the true cause of global warming, cows farting.

It's all due to the success of "Chic-Fil-A!"

We're all "eatin more chiken" which results in more bovine flatuence!

I remember everywhere on Facebook, liberals posting pictures of lakes at record low levels and captions stating this will be the new norm. Move ahead 3 years and those same lakes are overflowing their banks.

56 million years ago the earth was many degrees hotter
than the present day. The age of the dinosaurs was over
for 10 million years and automobiles, factories, peak oil
and gasoline were far in the future.

Man caused global warming is the boogy man of the
leftist enviromentalists in order to achieve global
domination.

Why doesn't anyone look at plant hardiness maps from the 60's and compare them today? Every year plant hardiness maps does change to know what type of plants that will grow in your region.

The 60's chart compared today has very little changes. If you look at early 90's maps it does show a slight up tick of more heat.

Science data can be altered but these hardiness charts are needed to be accurate.
