Our children will never experience a childhood as cool as ours. And our childhood wasn’t that cool.
That’s one of the stark realities underlined by the latest report from the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Within that new report, a key graphic shows how the average global temperature has changed across generations — with each generation born into an ever-warmer world.
“What really inspired [that graphic] was showing the consequences of the choices and actions taken now in reducing [greenhouse gas] emissions for generations now and in the future, for our children,” said Christopher Trisos, a member of the core writing team for the synthesis report and helped with the graphic.
The graphic is centered around a popular visual called climate stripes that show global temperature increases with vertical colored lines. The climate stripes were created in 2018 by climate scientist Ed Hawkins, using inspiration from previous scientists and even a crochet pattern. While creating the new IPCC report, graphic designer Arlene Birt proposed a visual that, alongside the stripes, would depict temperature changes across generations.
The visual shows that a person born in 1950 entered the world when there was around 0.25 degrees of warming compared to the late 1800s, said Ruane. Today, a 70-year-old has experienced 0.85 degrees of warming in their lifetime so far, or around 0.12 degrees per decade, he said.
A person born in 1980 first experienced around 0.4 degrees Celsius of warming above preindustrial times, experiencing 0.75 degrees of warming in about 40 years to date.
For a person born in 2020, the extent of warming highly depends on society’s response.

All aboard the fake climate train
All your freedoms belong to us
Warmer is better.
Ask the Romans...
Just use the computer models of the 1850s satellite data...
If anybody wonders why kids are so full of anxiety. They are told every day the world is going to crumble before they get a chance to figure out what sex they are.
Washington Post and MSN??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
CRAP WARNING....
I am still waiting to freeze from the coming ice age.
Indeed! The collective climate hysteria “they” can’t/won’t tell you what the optimal mean Earth temperature should be.
They can’t even use their models and plug in non-massaged actual climate data and have the models accurately report what the temperature is compared against what was recorded. Why? Because their models are data-massaged bullsh!t. Remember “Hide the Decline?”
It’s already had generational impact. I had to walk to school in a foot deep snow, uphill both ways. Today’s kids sit in their rooms playing video games during school zoom class.
You may have missed my points.
To answer your facetious question, no. From the beginning of the planet would be even harder than from 1850.
I would begin at a time when modern, high-sensitivity gauges were installed fairly evenly around the world — preferably in rural areas, away from all the artificially hot surfaces. That way you would be comparing apples with apples. That is a must if you’re doing science.
But the alarmists are doing agenda-driven speculation, not real science. So it doesn’t matter to them how iffy their measurements from the past might be.
My second question is one the alarmists never answer: what average temperature of the surface of the earth would be acceptable to their sensibilities?
IMO, there will not be a temperature that would be acceptable to them as long as they can make money.
The mile or more of ice over much of North America and the planet has come and gone many times. The last cycle was about 10,000 / 12,000 years ago.
So much snow pounded California ski resorts that even ski lifts 50 feet up are buried
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/much-snow-pounded-california-ski-184904679.html
SEE IT: 35-foot tall ski lifts buried in crazy deep snow in California
https://www.foxweather.com/extreme-weather/ski-lift-covered-snow-bear-valley-california
So far, there have been 623 inches of snow recorded at Bear Valley with more to come. The city is just 17 inches away from surpassing its all-time record of 639 inches set in 1982-83.

Snowpack deepens as flood watch issued is for lower elevations

The snowpack is getting crazy
With 603 inches of snow, the Central Sierra Snow Lab on Donner Pass is reporting its fifth snowiest winter on record since the lab was built in 1946.
Here’s the record numbers the lab is chasing:
1952, 812 inches of snow
1983, 671 inches of snow
2011, 643 inches of snow
1982, 624 inches of snow
This was posted before even many more feet of snow fell!
Sierra Snowpack Might Be Biggest on the Planet Right Now

“Computer models from 1850s satellite data..”
Yep, that kind of grabass science is about their speed.
I can show a chart of how liberalism negatively affects generations. I can also show a chart of how a bat can turn into a whale.
All of them supported by ‘scientific’ data.
Every climate disaster prediction from the 1927 NY Times prediction of ice free arctic by 1970 to Paul Ehrlich’s prediction of a new ice age and mass global starvation by 1980 to Greta Attention Whore’s prediction of future ice free winters by 2022. Have been wrong. But this time they’ll get it right. Massive bulls@@@. Designed to fool the people who are as stupid as the politicians think we all are into relinquishing their freedom to travel and an ever greater portion of their hard earned money. Two things I will never do: 1. Buy a battery powered vehicle and 2. Vote for a Democrat
Yah, das be convincing. 🤣🤣🤣
That is such utter crap. This is just to get the Global Warming groups to scare people into becoming Chicken Little. The “Little Ice Age” ended mid 19th century, like1850. We have been warming since. And it has been much warmer before the Little Ice Age, along with much higher carbon dioxide levels.
Lies and deception, in order to promote the idea we have to give up our freedoms and constitutional rights and property and money and power to the oligarchs.
