New study finds that climate change costs will hit Trump country hardest

Humans are causing Earth’s climate to change. We know that. We’ve known it for decades. Okay so what? The follow-up questions should be directed to what the effects of warming will be.

The costs are not uniformly distributed. Some regions will suffer more and other regions will suffer less. In fact, some regions will actually benefit in a warming climate.

It is also clear that the natural biosystems won’t suffer the same. Some areas are more susceptible to climate change, others less so. Coastal areas and tropical areas are great examples.

Fortunately, a really important paper just came out in Science titled Estimating Economic Damage from Climate Change in the United States. Granted, this paper focused on the United States, but the analysis method and lessons can be applied elsewhere.

So what did they find? First, even in a single country like the United States, the losses will be very uneven. In general, the more southern states will suffer most.

Bad Math, start out with a false proposition and everything that follows will be false.

>>Humans are causing Earth’s climate to change. We know that. We’ve known it for decades.

It’s scary how easily they can slip into that lie with no actual proof except for falsified data, bad assumptions, and wishes.

Humans are causing Earth’s climate to change. We know that.

A lie right out of the gates.

"Humans are causing Earth’s climate to change. We know that. We’ve known it for decades."

False premise, so the rest is gobblygook.

[Rebelbase]

Hey, it’s true! Look at where the hurricane is hitting!

These people actually use the Premise that Humanity can actually stop and reverse Climate Change.

Disagree with that assertion and you are blamed for actually causing Climate Change.

You can't win arguing with Morons.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

No, we don’t.

We know that leftists are trying to convince us that CO2, a gas vital to life, is a dangerous pollutant.

The Sun is the source of all global warming.
If it cycles down, as it has in the past, we will find that out.

Cold Kills.

Lol...I am still waiting for the ice age they promised me in elementary school. The one that was coming because fossil fuels and capitalism were going to destroy our atmosphere and block out the sun causing the earth to freeze over. I remember Leonard Nimitz on "In Search Of" or something taking about the coming freeze. You can find it on YouTube. Anyway, same ol 💩 different decade...

[bigbob]

Pick one.

[Nifster]

No kidding

Who wrote this so called study?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Science uses the scientific method.

Climate “science” uses computer models.

Any questions?

[hal ogen]

I agree because that is where most of the people who WORK are. They get taxed to pay for this LIB delusion and lies.

[JBW1949]

Well...

“Russia, Russia, Russia” failed...
“Racist, Racist, Racist” is failing...
Now it’s “Climate, Climate, Climate”...

[Sacajaweau]

Such BS

[PGR88]

The climate cult religion’s gods will punish the non-believers and heretics with fire.

[38special]

Hurricanes are racist and hate Mexicans!

[Slyfox]

If this thing, which is 92.96 million miles away, can burn human eyeballs in a matter of seconds,
it is quite possible that it can also have more of an effect on the climate than of us puny humans.

[Slyfox]

Nice job. Bob.

[Doogle]

...this guy is so full of chit he leaks
