“...the worst-case scenario keeps getting worse...”
-
Well then, I guess it wasn’t the worst-case after all.
Williams used 29 models to create a hypothetical world with no human-caused warming then compared it to what happened in real life — the scientifically accepted way to check if an extreme weather event is due to climate change.
As long as the phrase “climate change” is in the first sentence, we have an award winning article./s
Total BS. Colorado is having a very wet winter. Record snowfalls and snowpack.
So how about ditching the 200 billion dollar boondoggle “bullet train” to Fresno and building some desalination plants?
Typical liberal BS. They choose one spot and claim all of the western States are like that one spot.
It’s like their statement that owning a gun means a 7 times higher suicide rate when all they did was take one year in King County, Seattle, Washington, where there was that figure and claimed it across all gun owners for all time.
ALL WEATHER IS LOCAL.
“If you don’t like the weather, wait 1,200 years.”
Since this is from AP and their source is something called Nature Climate Change, I do not believe any of it. Except maybe the deserts are dry.
SUMAGUM! Who would have thought that?
They used to blame all of this on El Niño and La Niña. You don’t hear much about those anymore.
They are setting it up for climate emergency.
All nonsense and lies.
If this were true, build dams.
Yeah, right. No time to post graphics, so have some fun looking at this page

comparing to the same at whatever time in the past you see fit at archive.org. Note: If the graphics don’t load at archive.org, click on the link for “printable version of current data”.
Worse than the 25 year drought of 1275 AD? or the Whitewater Drought of AD 300, or maybe the Fairbank Drought of 500 BC?
worse than the 1930s droughts during the Dust Bowl? maybe the high plains drought of 1831?
Worse than the 1952 drought that drove us off the farm on the High Plains? worse than the 1977 Drought during “The Coming Ice Age” hoax?
Get real! No one believes that nonsense anymore except those new born in the last few decades who have missed the history lessons of the past.
There is a a reason the area of the West was referred to as THE GREAT AMERICAN DESERT in the 1800s.
Gavin Newsom, the smartest Governor in the US has banned all use of Ocean water in California.
Israel offered to show Gavin how to produce cheap clean water with their desalination operations. Gavin refused the help - he rather have a historic drought.
One of the remedies I have read is to build water pipelines to transport water from states that have water to states that don’t. Now that is such a novel idea. Why wasn’t this thought of or put into practice before ? Water pipelines. Not oil pipelines. Brilliant.
“human-caused climate change”
THERE CAN BE NO SUCH THING!
The Erff is YUGE! Humans are puny. There is no way we can affect “global” weather or anything close. Only “LOCAL” climate can be affected. Yet our human footprint is so SMALL that it doesn’t matter.
“The correct figure for the percentage of the earth’s land mass which is actually occupied by humans is .03%. This includes the land occupied by cities, towns, and commercial enterprises. So this means that out of 1000 units of land, we occupy three. The zealots included land which is being farmed and forested, but this land is not subject to any kind of contamination. So, like it or not, we humans are insignificant in the real workings of the earth, but we are an egocentric species, who overstate our importance.” (comment) LAND not including oceans.
“artificial surfaces (which cover 0.6 percent of the Earth’s surface)”

Globull warming and overpopulation are Liberal wet dreams.
They are just NOT TRUE!
FEAR PORN!
From the article:
“The study calculated that 42% of this megadrought can be attributed to human-caused climate change.”
The link in the article at the end of the above sentence brings you to nothing. No source for this socalled “study”, as usual.
You are expected to just believe them.
All BS.
They are called the high desert plains for a reason
“driest in at least 1,200 years “
There’s got opportunity in something so extreme. If anyone’s interested I can ship water for $99/oz with free 2 day shipping. Email for quotes on gallon quantities.
