adulthood is realizing that both communism and capitalism are poor to rich subsidization systems in practice because all economic systems have always been. It's a feature of human civilization that the people in power eat first. There is no way to impliment robin hood and there never will be. All we can do is get richer as a species so there is more left over for the common man.

Of course climate change is real. The alternative position is that the climate is unchanging but a cursory examination of reality reveals that everything changes.

More useful questions would be: To what extent are human activities driving the change? To what extent can we purposefully alter that change? How much will it cost? Who will pay? What happens if we do nothing? etc.

The climate isn't changing at the same rate everywhere or in the same way. Some areas are becoming more habitable for people, some areas are becoming less so. This has been happening since forever. Things might be faster now. It's unclear because as a topic climate change draws in many disingenuous actors i.e. people whos motivation appears to be seeking power or seeking to punish perceived opponents.

They dont want nuclear power because that would mean people would still continue to functioning society.

They want electric deficient power. So they can remove people's ability to own and drive their own car. All CARS. They dont like electric cars. They dont like gas cars. They want to remove all private ownership. The solutions offered by capitalism doesn't work because it enables individuals to still have freedom.

Their proposed answer is public transportation, expansion of government powers, reduction of energy usage, reduction of meat usage, eating the bugs, depopulation campaigns, castration campaigns, etc.

No, its because regular folks dont understand what the "climate" agenda extremists want.

See >>16147381

Meanwhile solutions like nuclear energy, electric cars, solar panels, etc are seen as evils by the the extremists. They are evil because it allows individual ownership and individual means of control. Thats antithetical to their "climate" activism, which is socialism.

>Is Climate Change Real?

From a natural, "the planet doing it's thing in order to preserve and achieve homeostasis"? Yes. Climate change has historically happened and will continue to happen. There's nothing wrong with acknowledging that and making adaptive decisions in response to natural phenomena.

From an "industry is making too much pollution & carbon and if we don't stop we'll cook like a dog in a van" Sort of. There's problems.
-The first problem is we're collectively very bad at making predictive models for the environment because we actually know jackshit about biology, ecology, and the environment in general. We're excellent at collecting data, making lab models, simulations, understanding particles, physics, chemistry, etc.. But the environment could be considered 'alive'ish' and it's constantly doing new things we can't account for that in turn make 'us' look stupid.

-The only 'real' method of environmentalism is restoration and conservation: grow things back and leave them alone. But then our environmentalist models of action have been completely hijacked by globalist consultants & industrial capitalists and their, frankly insane, carbon markets that have it in their head that it's perfectly fine to remove a biome or ecosystem if they can compensate it's 'estimated value' and/or cultivate a new one of equal or greater value in some hypothetical future.
Do you know that thing Wimpy from Popeye always says? The, "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today" ? That's basically official policy now.

In 1969 Lake Eerie was so polluted it caught on fire and burned for 30 minutes. In 1972 Richard Nixon signed the Clean Water Act that effectively made it illegal for that kind of thing to happen and set the EPA on the war path to cleaning the rivers and lakes of America. Something like this is basically impossible in our super cool 'reductive' carbon emission meme future.

>>16147447
One of the most eye opening parts of the pandemic was how many of my friends I made from when I was a transit activist were angry about the huge expansion of work from home. They should have been overjoyed by it. It had always been one of the "commute alternatives" that we pushed but once it finally happened on a large scale, many of them revealed themselves to really be authoritarians in favor of forcing everyone to live in dense city centers with only government supplied transportation to get around. Turned out many of them were anti-car not because of worries about climate change or pollution but because cars allowed people to live distant from the problems of the city. If they can do that, they don't have an incentive to care about and help solve the problems of cities. In the end, it comes down to a desire to make their problems into everyone's problem so everyone will be forced into solving their problems for them.

Even then it sounds slightly positive. But thats not it either. As I said before, they dont want a solution to fix the problem. They want THEIR solution. Which is to implement fascist socialist ideology. They see technology as a threat to their ideology. They see prosperity as a threat to their ideology. They see free people as a threat to their ideology. When free and prosperous people propose a technological solution, they hate them for it.

I want to say its a subversion of the original "climate" ideology which has morphed into a globohomo socialist order cult. But I think I might be bit too naive on that. Its possible that the original ideology of climate relies upon hatred of free society and the seed of communist ideology was supplanted to destroy the society itself.

I'm an Earth scientist. The data you need to understand that question is freely available. The best source of information is the IPCC but for some reason people have poisoned the well and claimed that anyone who claims man made climate change is real is somehow a shill of .... 'science' I guess? With some tenuous claims about a conspiracy or something based on misunderstanding emails from 15 years ago that were long ago debunked.

So here's sources not related to the IPCC, however, keep in mind, the IPCC's job is literally to inform the public about the reality of man made climate change.

Here's ExxonMobil admitting climate change is real and caused by humans:
https://corporate.exxonmobil.com/sustainability-and-reports/advancing-climate-solutions

Here's BASF a major petroleum chemical company admitting climate change is real and caused by humans:
https://www.basf.com/us/en/who-we-are/change-for-climate.html

Here's BP pretending they care about reaching netzero, which is addressing the damages their own company causes:
https://www.bp.com/en/global/corporate/sustainability/getting-to-net-zero.html

Friend, even the oil companies admit climate change is real and caused by humans. You can fudge numbers all you want, you can pretend some super conspiracy by ordinary scientists but you can't escape the fact that even oil companies now are forced to admit their product is dangerous and hurting people. Something they would never do if the evidence weren't completely against them.

It is reality. It's the darwinian nature of living beings, the biological motivation systems of fear/desire, punishment/reward, pain/pleasure and all the psychology that derives from these biological motivation system like the will to exercise power over others, territorial behaviour etc. Human emotions are a dashboard for how well we satisfy these drives. It feels good to do better than anyone else.

You seem to want to downplay the reality biology in favor of the fantasy of social constructivism and morality. Instead I propose to recognize that some humans have a different kind of biology: they feel better when sharing and cooperating rather than dominating.

Exactly. This is the logical end point of all climate change nonsense, and I'd suggest the wider concept of leftism as a whole.

The problem leftists/climate types point out is humans making an impact on the environment. The only foolproof way to eliminate human imapct on the envrionment is to exterminate all humans.
This dovetails perfectly with the wider antinatalism of leftism, and is part of why envrionmentalism attracts them so much. That and it gives them an excuse to further steal other people's things.

Leftism is the product of dysgenics.

https://phys.org/news/2023-11-absorb-co2-human-previously.html

There was supposed to be a limit on how much CO2 plants could handle. Just like every climate model ever made: it's wrong.

If I choose to trust your graph (and by the way, there's no reason I should because although it names a source it doesn't say what study this was, and the lack of any other gasses measured even just for comparison is extremely sus) there must be an explanation other than production of CO2.
>>
>>16186626
You are a moron. Where do you think the oxygen comes from in CO2? You dug up the C and used the atmospheric O2 to burn it. Now that oxygen is locked up in that carbon. It doesn't matter how many plants there are, more carbon dioxide means less oxygen. You should have learned this in high school chemistry.
>>
>>16186263
>Are you aware that every atom of carbon added to the atmosphere is a molecule of oxygen that you can never breathe again?
That's not how that works, retard. CO2 is measured in PPM, it is a volumetrically irrelevant portion of the atmosphere, and oxygen levels were higher than today during the Mesozoic, when CO2 levels were consistently three times or more higher than today.

>>16186647

Wrong. Oxygen levels during the cretaceous were higher than today and so were CO2 levels. You are wrong and should delete all of your posts.

Youve fallen for the classic blunder, posting sources that don’t support what you’re saying, hoping no one will read them

1st one says nothing about CO2 production at all. In fact it talks about plants that absorb O2.

2nd one discusses CO2 production but says:
>Even when you breathe, you’re breathing in oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide. So every year, as there are more and more people on the planet (over 7.5 billion right now) and as we cut down more forests, we’re consuming oxygen faster than it’s being replaced.
And later says:
>But the good news is this: LOTS of oxygen is already in the atmosphere. Compared to the 20% oxygen that is already there, changes in oxygen every year are less than 0.001%. It would take over 1000 years to really notice a difference.

And the 3rd one mentions fossil fuels but mostly attributes lower O2 to a decline in sea algae.

So you were asked to show that more CO2 means less Oxygen, and instead you showed that not only is the decline in Oxygen not because of more CO2 (it’s because of a decline in O2 replacement mechanisms), you also showed that the effect is completely negligible at 0.001% per year or less.

Oh, and for some reason you didn’t choose to use either of the sources for the graphs you posted here:
>>16186955
>>16186263
Pretty odd choice since you used them as evidence earlier. Mayhaps the studies don’t say what you claim?
>>
>>16187159
You are just desperate to pretend that oxygen is increasing aren't you?

First source, first paragraph
>Oxygen makes up one-fifth of the air we breathe, but it’s the most vital component – and it does seem to be declining. The main cause is the burning of fossil fuels, which consumes free oxygen.

Second source, second and third paragraphs
>It takes two oxygen atoms (and a carbon atom) to make carbon dioxide (CO2). This means that all of these processes that make CO2 are taking oxygen out of the atmosphere. But the formation of oxygen happens at lower rates. Even when you breathe, you’re breathing in oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide. So every year, as there are more and more people on the planet (over 7.5 billion right now) and as we cut down more forests, we’re consuming oxygen faster than it’s being replaced.

>But the good news is this: LOTS of oxygen is already in the atmosphere. Compared to the 20% oxygen that is already there, changes in oxygen every year are less than 0.001%. It would take over 1000 years to really notice a difference.

Third source, third paragraph
>Atmospheric oxygen levels are very slowly decreasing today due to the burning of fossil fuels, which consumes oxygen, and deforestation which reduces oxygen production, but not enough to alter biological processes

For fucks sake, can you even read? How about you post a source that shows that oxygen is increasing? Could it be because one doesn't exist?

>Pretty odd choice since you used them as evidence earlier
Yes, strange how literally every source shows that oxygen is decreasing, not increasing, and it's so strange that I brought you five different sources to demonstrate that. Now, I have lead you to water and poured it into your mouth, all you have to do is swallow.

>Are you aware that every atom of carbon added to the atmosphere is a molecule of oxygen that you can never breathe again?
Literally is not true. You were told it isn't true, and in trying to prove that it is true, you accidentally proved that it isn't.
O2 does not necessarily drop because of CO2 producition, and it certainly isn't true that once O2 is converted to Oxygen you lose the molecule for breathing forever, which is precisely what you said.
There are O2 mechanisms for recycling CO2 into Oxygen. Every elementary school child knows this. Your sources say it too. The problem is that those mechanisms are declining for other reasons. Ergo, O2 go down. If those mechanisms were not in decline, O2 and CO2 could be balanced, or O2 production could even out pace CO2 production, which according to you is completely impossible.

It's real but overblown. Climate change is going to result in more crazy weather like tornadoes and hurricanes and they will be far powerful. Less water so less food or more expensive food. Your going to notice diseases spread more instead of staying south. But it won't kill humanity off. At worst maybe 10s of millions die from starvation and the bulb effect. Which just means it's really hot and humid so the human body can't cool itself off with sweating.
>>
>>16189111
>If the carbon comes from the ground then where does the oxygen come from?
NTA the oxygen comes from the atmosphere, of course. But eventually we will run out of carbon-based fossil fuels to burn. When that happens, photosynthesis will be able to start increasing global O2 levels again.
There is enough free oxygen in the atmosphere to combust all the fossil fuels in the world several times over without making a noticeable dent in O2 levels.
>>
>>16189504
But 100% of plants don't fully decompose.
Peat bogs trap carbon, as does timber used in construction.
There are other processes which produce atmospheric oxygen, like photolytic bacteria which split water into hydrogen and oxygen gas.
>>
>>16189675
>Stores of carbon emit carbon dioxide as well as sinking them. Any particular store will store carbon until it reaches equilibrium at which point it will emit as much carbon as it stores
You misunderstand. The peat bog doesn't have an infinite capacity to store carbon, but it can't emit more carbon than it stored in the first place. Peatlands are, by definition, net stores of carbon. Some CO2 is released, but the live plants on the top of the peatlands use this. It always stores a non-zero amount of the carbon that the plants drew from the atmosphere.
Peat bogs can be several meters deep and can grow for thousands of years.
I see you ignored my point about construction timber.

>>16192019
Within two centuries or so, we'll have depleted the majority of our remaining fossil fuels, or massively reduced their use voluntarily.
Either way, emissions from combustion of fossil fuels, IE the vast majority of man-made emissions, will be gone. There will almost certainly be fewer people on the planet in 200 years. Almost every person in the world lives somewhere with a drastically low birth rate. Rates are falling rapidly in the places that are still above replacement. This drastically smaller population will require less net emissions to support. Crop foods will be engineered to fix their own nitrogen, freeing us from dependence on fossil-fuel derived ammonia fertiliser. Yields will be higher and far less land will be needed for the far smaller population.
More and more space every year will be given over to wild spaces to recover. Our descendents will live longer, healthier, materially richer lives than we do.
Some environmental problems will get worse before they get better, but the vast majority are due to inadequate management of our lived environments rather than something as abstract as our carbon emissions.
Things are going to work out.

No you will fucking not, even if you hunt all rabbits the loss of produce would be greater than the meat because rabbits wont turn all the food they eat into meat, a lot of produce will turn into poo.
A similar inconvenience applies here, no, plants do not produce adequate oxygen to make up for CO2 in the air.
>renewable resources
No, less bacteria and animals in the fauna and less nitrogen meaning at the end of the day the plants will not get enough nutrients to live on so they will start dying out too.

If the rabbits slaughtered and butchered themselves and served themselves onto your plate, yes a rabbit infestation will mean you have more rabbit meat.
Why do you suddenly want to change what you said?
>Oh rabbits aren't all meat anon! Focus on that instead of the retarded analogy I posed!
Cool. Go research the efficiency of the oxygen cycle and try not to cry every time you see a study that says the upper ceiling of production is higher than all our predictive models.

Probably yes and anthropogenic. The science is not yet 100% there but there are more reasons to believe it is than it is not. Makes sense to start doing something about it.
I don't get why this is such a controversial topic. Individual carbon footprint is tiny, it's mostly the industry.

When one side of the research is funded and the other is not, what can you expect?
Whenever you hear "hottest temperature ever recorded in [country]" it is pretty much always a weather station in the middle of an airfield, or next to power transformers that give off a load of heat and electrical interference.
But you don't see studies about where this data is coming from. Where precisely was the measurement taken? How reliable is the equipment? We don't know, we just take it for granted and then factor that data into other studies.
And then you end up with shit like pic related in the media.

Then the public fear is used to push through higher taxes on modern commodities, to justify restricting your freedom of movement (we're in the early stages of seeing governments talk about banning cars or limit personal travel to certain areas), and in the mean time politicians are still flying private jets around the world every single day when they could hold conferences online if they wanted to set an example.

I get why when you're raised with this shit, literally taught it in school, and every authority figure you can think of is jamming it down your throat, you think you're being sceptical and critical by effectively saying it's "probably true but the science isn't settled" but buddy, they go this hard on this shit to shift the window of debate like that. So even their opponents have to concede the premise. Concession is acceptance. Do not entertain the idea. Make them keep making outlandish predictions that fall flat, as every single fucking climate model to date has done.

If it was true they wouldn't need to scare you.

The benefit of electricity is that even if it's generated by polluting methods today it could just as easily be generated by environmentally-friendly methods in the future. Gas-powered cars will only ever be powered by gas. Electric-powered cars can be powered by gas, diesel, nuclear, solar, hydro, etc, etc.

CO2 isn't a pollutant, adding CO2 to the atmosphere is the most environmentally-friendly thing you can do. Plants grow better in high CO2 conditions and the rest of the environment that isn't plants depend on plants for their survival. Plants also require less water to grow effectively in CO2 enhanced environments, so adding CO2 to the atmosphere will allow arid regions to become more lively.

Equality of outcome is a euphemism for depressing living standards of the average person down to the point where it meets the living standards of the unemployable and slightly mentally retarded. There is absolutely nothing more to it. Banks and corporations don't push it because they have an intrinsic Kantian interest in helping the poor black person who, despite 60 years of affirmative action, performs no better in absolute terms than he did in the (white supremacist) '40s and '50s.

A relative increase in carbon dioxide (CO2) by 100 ppm necessitates a loss in oxygene by, how much? 100 ppms? For living beings, the relative proportion of oxygen to carbon dioxide is, to a limited degree, a much more important factor than the total amount of oxygen you enhale. If that wasn't the case, moving up a mountain would instantly cause you to die.

The climate IS changing, though. When I was growing up, we'd get snow starting in early to mid November (sometimes even as early as Halloween), there would ALWAYS be at least a few inches of snow on the ground at Thanksgiving, February would always be in single digit or negative temperatures with ice everywhere, and we'd expect some snow showers as late as April. I live in the same city I grew up in and now we don't get snow until Christmas and it's a dusting at most, there's no meaningful snow accumulation until sometime in January, we have moderately cold weather in February, and temperatures are up into the 70s and 80s by March and April with no snow in sight. Over the last 30 years there has been a noticeable change in the climate and that's just plain undeniable.

I don't buy into the propaganda around it and I know the governments and media are all exaggerating things for their own ends and I know we shouldn't cede any freedom over it, but it's equally ignorant to claim there's been no change at all. If you really think that, you probably haven't been alive very long or have a terrible memory.

That's due to the reduced air density, not the relative concentrations of CO2 and O2.

How many homes and how much infrastructure (5G, fibreoptic, powerlines, transformers, AC exhaust) has been built in your city and the surrounding counties in the last 25 years? Farms shut down and fields turned into homes and roads?
There is another definition of "climate"
>the prevailing trend of public opinion or of another aspect of life.
Our climate is changing - more and more infrastructure and absorbant black asphalt and waste heat from the billion devices and miles of pipes and vents and the millions of ICE vehicle activity. All of this stuff causes heavily built up areas, spanning many miles, to experience much warmer weather than surrounding rural locations.
99% of the "climate change" people cite as evidence is due to specific land use changes or environmental management failures.
Look at Picrel. Look how the heat so strongly correlates with urban sprawl. As soon as you get away and get vegetation, everything is cool: the plant life reflects more light and is pumping thousands of gallons of water daily into the air, not only reacting differently to hot weather but also making weather by contributing to cloud formation.

Toledo, Ohio. We used to have an event at our zoo called "Frozentoesen" that happened every February and had all sorts of extreme cold weather activities like outdoor ice sculpting. It hasn't happened for years because February doesn't get cold enough to do those kinds of things. We used to bundle up in winter coats in February and worry about frostbite, and now it's basically just thick sweatshirt weather every year. And it's not just my memory playing tricks because we have years worth of home video footage and the weather difference in the winter from then to now is stark.
>>
>>16201698
It's not like it snows on Thanksgiving out in the country but not in the city. I'm not sure exactly what point you're trying to make. There is a change happening, regardless of the cause. I'm only saying it's ignorant to deny that change is happening and it probably means you're just not old enough to have experienced it.
>>
>>16201717
>Toledo, Ohio
Here is what has happened south East of Toledo downtown since 1994. See the farmland retreat and the suburbs and Walmarts close in. More roads, more cars, more asphalt, more power lines, transformers. More heat absorbed and emitted instead of being reflected. If this it it's like on the fringes of the suburbs, what do you think it's like downtown?
Look at >>16201698 again.
It doesn't even have to be a very strong effect to alter weather.

>>16201729
Enough extra net heat is in our local air mass to change the weather. Snow needs particular circumstances to form and to accumulate when it lands.

Forgive me for getting a little confused, it's just that you started by calling me a liar for saying winter weather has significantly receded in my lifetime and then proceeded to agree that my claim is completely reasonable. Are you getting worked up over some assumption of what I might think the cause is? I never said anything about a cause, I only spoke to my objective observations of the changes in the weather. If you also think that the climate is changing over time then we're in agreement. The only thing I said was undeniable is the change itself.

I'm not the one who called you a liar, but identifying the CAUSE of the changes we observe is crucial. If you accept that the primary cause is carbon dioxide emissions, then "doing something about" climate change has only one solution - a nebulous commitment to "reduce carbon" without fixing any of the myriad specific problems in our lived environment and shortcomings in land management.
If you believe that the primary cause of observed changes is due to land use changes, then the set of solutions grows much larger, and more diverse, and potentially more radical. Eradication of city sprawl, an increase in rewinding and a managed decline in the global population. A complete redesign of our remaining city infrastructure, buildings and roads made as bright, white and reflective as possible with the inclusion of as much greenery as possible.
>>
>>16202266
I definitely don't think the problem is carbon emissions. It's become very obvious to me over the years that's just an easy scapegoat that gives people in power carte blanche to fuck people over for profit and more power. The whole narrative around cows the past few years in particular made that plainly obvious to me.

Then you have a moral duty to oppose all those who call for redress toward carbon emissions in general rather than land use changes or environmental management issues in particular.

If we're comparing low tide to low tide, then what exactly is this trying to say?
>>
>>16205230
Who knows what the tide is in either picture. Point is the island the statue is on is extremely close to sea level and it hasn't gone under because the sea level isn't fucking rising.
>>
>>16205246
Why do you automatically assume the statue of liberty would go underwater if the sea levels rose? Even since 1920 the waterline has only rise by about .3 meters (1 foot in amerishart units). Every "gotcha" image I've seen on here is far too zoomed out to tell if the water level has actually risen.

I want you retards to refute claims people have made, not your own strawmans.
>>
>>16205230
We can't know for certain if either picture is actually taken at the lowest point of the tides, and tide heights vary along with moon cycles, due to storm surges, shifting currents, etc.
But we CAN see the high tide line, the rocks darkened by the growth of seaweed etc.

Apparent sea level, ie tidal extent on land, is determined and dominated in most of the populated northern hemisphere by the effects of post glacial isostatic rebound. Its effects far eclipse in magnitude the virtually undetectable global rises claimed by scientists.
>>
>>16205254
>Why do you automatically assume the statue of liberty would go underwater if the sea levels rose?
Because the claim since like the 80s has been that sea levels are rising to a degree that if we don't do anything the entire eastern seaboard will be flooded out and half of Florida will vanish into the ocean.
