The snowy world you grew up in no longer exists.

There are those out there who made billions depriving you of snowy winters.
>>
>>2857989
Tell me, what was the weather like in the Midwest in 1776? How about in Mexico in 1452? What was the high in Columbus, OH on June 8 1870? How about the low for the same place and day in 75 BC?
You have no clue. Without this data, you and other people claim that the globe is warming, and then, because of the difficulty in defending that position, that the climate is changing. It's all a hoax.
>>
in the room the ice ages come and go
talking of michelangelo
>>
>>2857989
I miss the snow so much.
>>
>>2857991
We are accelerating considerably. Ice ages take 10,000 years.1.5°C hotter in 150 years is 10-20x faster than any natural cycle. Your house being hit by lightning is a natural cycle too, but if you kept gasoline on the roof hoping to never get struck, you'd be a retard.
>>
>>2857989
The coldest winter of our lives is behind us, and the coolest summer too.
>>
There used to be a ski resort two hours drive from my house with awesome upper runs. Nothing beyond the bunny hill and tubing slide has been consistently open for the past decade.
>>
>>2857993
OK retard. What's your plan to stop the solar and geological processes?
>>
>>2857993
>150 years
Insignificant in terms of climate.
>>
>>2857989
>The snowy world you grew up in no longer exists.
Last I checked it still snows here, every year. Must suck being some southern cunt with no mountains.
>>
>>2857989
if the oceans are rising, why are billionaires who pay to have this constantly shouted in every venue, buying more and more ocean front property?
>>
>>2858039
Because they're billionaires retard. They're buying beach houses they'll own for 10-20 years tops. That doesn't disprove sea level rise any more than a CEO buying cigarettes disproves lung cancer. The ocean's risen 9 inches since 1880, we measure it with tide gauges. Meanwhile, insurance companies who actually price risk are fleeing coastal Florida. Try insuring a house there. Billionaires don't even need insurance.
>>
>>2857989
Global warming is real but not anthropogenic. Billions must suffer.
>>
>>2857990
Its like when Europe had "the worst drought on record!!" and the shoreline along the river bank receded to show carvings in the bedrock that dated back to the 1400s.
>>
>>2857989
>depriving you of snowy winters
Depriving me of the snow that I just went snowshoeing in yesterday? 20 more inches are expected to fall without melting so it looks like I'll be doing the same next weekend. But thanks for your concern ig.
>>
>>2857989
It hurts.
We good 3 days of good snow this year, and I was fucking ill during them.
>>2858054
Yeah, they didn't record exact precipitation or river levels in the 1400s so those droughts are not on a real record. We can infer from the descriptions that they were pretty damn bad though, some worse than anything we had this century.
>If you see me, then weep

>>2857990
What a pseudoscientific misdirection. The point isn't to recall micro-weather patterns on specific dates, it's to use the evidence of a trend that's recorded in the earth itself and compare it against modern averages.
The evidence shows that the current trend of average temperature increase is unprecedented in the history of the planet. The only thing that comes close is an extinction event millions of years ago (forget which one), and even that experienced warming over a period of thousands of years, not a few decades.
This only looks at temperature by the way. The research tracks many different environmental factors that are also changing in worrying ways.
>>2857996
Simple really- stop releasing emissions that trap heat in the atmosphere, and dedicate a large part of available human labor to environmental reclamation efforts.
Well the idea is simple anyway. The act of emissions degrowth will be (and have been) fought tooth and nail by powerful moneyed interests, and there is no way to direct the necessary funds toward environmental reclamation away from more profitable endeavors.
>>2858039
This argument is why we shouldn't trivialize the impact of billionaires to what they consume. They primarily direct human labor based on how they divine meaning from the trends of an anarchistic and wild "free" market. The net effect of this is far worse than whatever yachts they choose to buy and not use.
>>
>>2857990
tree rings tell the relative temps and level of precip

Ice cores are even more precise and go back 100,000s of yrs

is it wilful ignorance or cognitive dissonance?
>>
>>2858065
If I can't understand how it works
And I don't like the results
It's clearly politically motivated fake science
>>
>>2857989
Whether it's a natural process being fear mongered or actually "our" fault, there is nothing you as an individual can do to stop it.
Personally I'm going to enjoy growing oranges in alaska.
>>
>>2858069
I can vote for politicians that enact legislation to lower carbon dioxide emissions.

>lower carbon dioxide emissions
ooOOOYA!,,,like, HOWLOW?,
,,any lower and the plants DIE!,
,so? HOW LOW YOU FAGGGGGOT?!,
,,,,,,theres no real reduction in heating untill 0.01 PPM you DUMBY!,
,,,justso youknow, im stupid,,,but notan IDIOT!,
,,,,STOP SPRAYING TO SAVE ME!,
,and,,,stop touching kids you whore.
>>
>>2858072
What is this I don't even
>>
>>2858067
No, no. The climate change/global warming farce has been shown to be based on manipulated data, for political and financial purposes.
>>
>>2858075
Is that what Fox News tells you?
>>
>>2858070
Why don't you stop using computers, taxing the grid, and producing tons of electronic waste?
>>
>>2858075
>manipulated data
They also manipulated my memory and made me believe we had more snow ten years ago. Insidious, truly.
>>
>>2858077
Prisoner's dilemma anon.
If I or a few people consoom less, the rest of the world will consoom more because it has become cheaper. Very little effect. What is necessary is for everyone to consoom less, enforced by law (as in, carbon dioxide taxes and such). Then I will automatically consoom less because I cannot afford it.
(Also I drive a small car, don't travel much and don't eat meat every day. Think that puts me ahead of most people in the first world.)
>>
>>2858079
I think you've merely given yourself an intellectual get-out-of-jail-free card, instead of taking real and practical action towards your purported goal. Blue bin/black bin thinking. Outsource the problem to someone else.
>>
>>2858080
Yeah, I'm lazy and can't be bothered to do more. Sue me. Also I'm not living like a treehugger when you anons out there drive pickups and eat beef every day.
>>
>>2858075
>based on manipulated data
so....cognitive dissonance. got it. thanks
>>
>>2858063
Emissions have nothing to do with volcanic eruptions or solar output fluctuations, both of which have magnitudes more impact on global temperatures.
>>2858079
>>2858082
The environmental movement is a social engineering program, one of the goals of which is to attempt to preserve the status quo of Western hegemony. Any restrictions you might imagine in your global authoritarian government scenario would have the effect of freezing the economies of the 2nd and 3rd Worlds.
>>
>>2858083
Correct. Zoom out.
>>
>>2858084
>global authoritarian government scenario
Implying implications I never implied
What would happen is that the reasonable governments of the world come together to set emission targets and keep by them. Any government that would not follow would be punished, for example in the form of tariffs and embargoes. No authoritarian world government needed.
>freezing the economies of the 2nd and 3rd Worlds
I'm already in favour, you don't need to sell it to me.

is that why they destroy western economies and redistribute wealth to the third world ad infinitum?

That's won't do anything but hurt people.

This is a lie.

Power plants, natural gas utilities, and other large industrial facilities must pay when they put greenhouse gas emissions into the air. Some of that money is used by California to fight climate change,

>>2857989
Oh trust me I know. We've been getting less and less snow here for years.
>>
>>2858141
It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his recklessly consoomerist lifestyle depends on his not understanding it.
>>
>>2858069
You won't be around to see that though.

>>2858073
Incoherent nigbabble. Just ignore it.
>>
>>2857990
There's plenty of data available in ice cores, tree rings, oxygen isotope ratios in sedimentary plankton and corals, radiocarbon dating, direct human measurements in the historic record, and the geologic features of the landscape itself.
Just because you're too stupid to understand the evidence doesn't mean it can be wholly dismissed.

Bro i live at 9.8k feet in Colorado and I'm looking at a grassy lawn rn

lefties really are a retarded bunch lmfao

>Just because you're too stupid to understand the evidence doesn't mean it can be wholly dismissed.
This, it's honestly almost impressive how some people can have the confidence to just assume that they've figured it all out and all people researching this shit full time are just too dumb to get it
>>
>>2857989
We are on the way out of an ice-age currently. This makes sense
>>
>>2857989
fuck just snow, everyone's been noticing the massive drop off in bug populations right? I can drive for hours at night down the interstate and hardly get anything but rocks on my windshield.
>>
>>2858405
That’s fucking bad retard bugs are a necessary part of the ecosystem but muh shitty Honda’s windshield doesn’t get dirty
