There IS a problem with global warming... it stopped in 1998
BIGUN replied to rushmc's topic in Speakers Corner
Just popped up on my newsfeed. Interesting read. https://scitechdaily.com/methane-emitted-by-humans-vastly-underestimated-powerful-greenhouse-gas-is-large-contributor-to-global-warming/ -

And, since Brent doesn't actually read anything - at the bottom of the article, “If you think about this one event in February, it isn’t that significant,” said Pelto. “It’s more significant that these events are coming more frequently.“ -

He's got slack from me. I'm not engaging this silliness anymore. -

I cited the source of the graph by Archibald silliness you posted from 10 years ago. In short - I was citing the source you failed to provide. -

You got that from: https://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/03/08/the-logarithmic-effect-of-carbon-dioxide/ A one man site who credits David Archibald as the author. Mr. Archibald didn't know what he was talking about in 2011 and still doesn't. I'm not the only one with that opinion: Climate Misinformation by Source: David Archibald -
Thank you so much for putting this in my head :) -

And to that exact point; I submit the following: And, I realize that this may be from ten years ago - but it's like compound interest. It gets uglier the longer it lasts. -

BIGUN replied to rushmc's topic in Speakers Corner
You cherry-picked the the prologue as to why the computer models needed changing, but failed to address the summation: "Studies such as one show the immediacy of risk, says climate scientist Jesse Bell at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, in Omaha, NE. “A lot of times when we talk about climate change we talk about how things are changing the future,” he says. But Mitchell’s study emphasizes the here and now. “This isn’t something that’s going to just have an impact in 25 or 50 years. Climate change is now.” -

It's not about being wrong. It's about being fed the wrong information for too long. I too; sang the party line, but I chose to continue my education outside of what was being pumped at me. -

Brent, please read the following in its entirety. It's newer and you know not unlike you; I can be stubborn as hell, but at some point we have to look past the party line and rely on science - physical science; not social science. . https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6099850/ -

The Militia definition or the historical misplaced comma discussion?

You seriously think that our government now is similar to what's going on then? You know, Jerry, I've just about reached my limit with the US bashing. Every year; for every year since I went into the military - we've put our men & women in harm's way in ~130 countries every year and spend ~20 Billion in foreign aid. Then some German comes along and says how we are similar to the German grandparents & the Nazi's that killed 6 million jews? How many men did we lose during WWII? How many generations of potential scientists that could have found a cure to cancer by now? I spent four years in Germany during the 70's when we were still defending them from the Russians. Do you even know that we had Americans killed by Germans then? They were called Neo-Nazis, Jerry. The ENTIRE neo-nazi movement that was spawned and still exists to this day came from that area and time in history. And now; you and he say we're not much different. You know, we may have our differences on policy, but to strike out at America as a whole and associate us with the Nazis is just fucked up. P.S. I didn't tell him what to post. I challenged his content just as I have yours and you mine in the past.

Nice fucking headline - with one major problem. Your grandparents were directly involved in the killing of six million jews and millions of your own who did not salute the fuhrer. Don't even try to make some associative comment of what's going on now - here; with what went on then - there.

I ride a big bagger Harley - a lot. I look out for everyone to ensure we're both safe. So, am I a conservative or a liberal.
