I think this year is the hottest and then it reduces. It usually lags about 2 decades. The sun really dropped 2 decades ago, but I don’t know how the tonga explosion and this Atlantic cooling is affecting things as well.
But global warming/climate change is like that, there’s just too many variables.
The insisted that the oceans had risen almost foot or more since the 1970s.
I grew up on a boat in San Diego and I knew for fact that the sea level had not changed significantly so I was not having any of that.
They would not listen and insisted the seas had risen and were rising so rapidly coastal areas would soon be under water.
Their was pier close by that had been built by the WPA back in the 1930’s and along with the WPA commissioning info, they had marked the waterlines from the 1930s.
We went over and looked and the water lines had not changed significantly since the 1930s.
They still would not agree the oceans were not rising.
These were guys from Stanford, MIT and Princeton and all had PhDs’. There is something about global warming that makes otherwise sane people go crazy.
bttt
I’ve been scuba diving every year or two for more than 40 years on a spit of land in the Caribbean called Klein Curacao that’s about 20 feet above sea level at its highest point. I’ve got photos going back all those years and if the shore line has moved a foot, you can’t tell it.
Oh, wait a minute. Sorry my bad. Almost no hurricanes or tropical storms this year! Mea culpa!
Climate change is the least of their problems.
There’s the matter of governments actively trying to destroy this planet and prevent travel through crashing the economy and restricting travel.
The only reason would be the environazis and their globalist corporate puppet masters will outlaw air travel. For us, of course. Not themselves.
Well, if history is any guide the oceans will rise another 100’ before the start of the next ice age. That’s what happened 2.5 million years ago before the start of the last ice age.
There are a lot of north-south ridges in FL about 60’ above MSL. They are the shallow water reefs of the last inter-glacial period, 2.5 mya.
The peeps at Pavlopetri succumbed to the sea long before the internal combustion engine.....
I guess the MSM (BBC) doesn’t realize the islands are actually ancient reefs which were once underwater. So the reefs are just returning to the natural habitat from which they originated. The mouthy interlopers, colonizers, occupiers, need to move off!
But I guess there’s more money to be made by hustling the mainlanders.
replace climate change with racism, social justice, DEI and any one of the dozen or so phobias same sh##
BBC= bumbling, bigheaded, clowns.
Its easier to fool people than it is to convince them that they have been fooled!
BS, more leftist propaganda and fear mongering.
The ruling class is telling us what island paradise they intend to keep as their own.
We all know “climate change” is just a ruse to get the undesirables out of the way so the elites can keep the beaches and the skies to themselves.
That would involve sticking one's finger in a dyke.......no thanks.
If these islands are that bad off, I think the inhabitants should be moved to higher and drier place for their safety. FEMA can build them some nice trailers somewhere inland that is high and dry..In Florida they actually build houses way tall, up on posts with big stairs.
Maybe government can arrange the forced sale of these worthless coastal properties to some generous billionaires. /s
If Hawaii drowns, do we remove their star off the Flag?, Asking for a friend.
Relax it’s just the Weather
