How come scientists' predictions about global warming are always wrong?
>>
>>16188673
they’re the ones causing climate change through climate engineering
>>
>>16188673
they can't even forecast the weather tomorrow.
climate is way too complicated to predict anything really and there are way to many unknowns. if two giga volcanoes in indonesia erupt that's a little ice age for you. if the sun is more intense it gets hotter and we can't do shit.
having said no scientist makes the world will end predictions.
don't get them confused with sensationalist journalists

They're not wrong, but they can't report the worrisome, but nonetheless possible, extreme predictions. You see, unlike in the insurance industry, where "conservative" estimates mean assuming the worst case scenarios are possible, and so they charge insurance premiums accordingly, and in so keeping they accounting "conservative", in climate scientists are pressured to report "conservative" estimates, meaning moderate estimates, lest they be labelled "alarmists" or "socialists" and have their reputation dragged in the mud by denialist politicians if they report on the most concerning model predictions.

even the best global warming hysteric data from the """corrected""" temperature data still dips massively below the 95% certainty envelop, some of them go into the 5 sigma range for low temperatures as predicted by the models, you have to go back to the 20th century to find any data that was above the models' predicted values and thats even on your cherrypicked image

I'll address that:

1) Trees that are alive have captured past CO2 in the atmosphere, which is currently locked in their organic material.
2) Most of the carbon stored in tree material that rots in the open air will eventually be released back into the atmosphere as CO2 through the process of decomposition.
3) those are natural processes and they have been in balance, in general, all over the globe.

3) The CO2 released from fossil fuels when producing the energy that the modern Canada lifestyle requires comes from carbon that was locked in the Earth's crust for millions of years. It is not carbon that was already in the atmosphere. However, this is not about Canada, read on.

4) As you can see, in order to sequester the new CO2 released in 3, the processes in 1 and others which I did not mention (such as the oceanic absorption of CO2), have to not only maintained the CO2 balance we used to have, but they now have to also sequester that additional CO2.

For that reason, Canada has many trees indeed, but you cannot think of Canada only. "Canada" does not exist in the laws of physics, only in our minds, and the forest you mention, is therefore part of a global ecosystem that all together works to remain stable on a temporal human scale.

So the question is, is all the vegetation on Earth, is all the phytoplankton on Earth, is all the CO2 diffusion into the oceans, etc, managing to counter all the new CO2 that humanity is digging out of the crust and burning into the atmosphere?
It all indicates that no, as we can see CO2 rising significantly since the onset of the Industrial Revolution.

>ah, but the earth is greening
That might be so, but the greening is not surpassing or overcoming the new additional CO2, as far we can tell, because:

what about that whole volcanic eruptions deal?

dont get me wrong.
im on your side.

i think its important to push this issue especially on a global message becuase if climate change scientists didnt raise a fuss then we would be much worse off than they are now.
like scientists arent only bitching. they are aldo providing solutions to lower carbon emissions.
they just revealed a zero emissions concrete.
they design coal plants that are more environmentally friendly than before.
they are doing the best they can, and its pushing the clock back ever so slightly.

the reality is though that we will never not worry about our climate.
we are a global people, connected by massive trade and production quotas.
we have conquered low earth orbit with all the sateillites we have up there.
we now treat the globe as a farmer treats his land.
and i assure you there isnt an hour that goes by where he doesnt dote on it.
always worrying about nitrate levels, the weather, pests and disease etc.
the problem with simple farming though, is that the simple solution for a big problem is to just dump it in the back field and let it rust. our minds are at the level of awareness though where farming isnt so simple anymore.

It's not that scientists can't really PREDICT climate, it's just that there's so much (((red tape))) that objective results and practical solutions get snuffed out by media mongering.
Like, it's true that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. It's true that certain chemicals fuck with the environment.
What the scientists DON'T do is tell white people to not reproduce, while doing nothing to curb the R-Type reproduction of browns and darkies.
(((They))) say that we need to eat less meat and instead eat vegan shit and insect flour from facilities that pollute and kill fertile soil EVEN MORE than even the sleaziest cattle farms, instead of actually getting the US Navy to sink Chinese fishing tramps.
We're told to recycle, while corporations like Monsanto and DuPont can produce inefficient and horrific chemical waste that makes animals like frogs change sexes and grow extra limbs, or make refrigerants that are deliberately shittier than the tried and true R12.

That is how it works. Cows aerate the soil and trim the grass so you have productive new growth rather than a covering of dried brush that smothers everything.
