More Climate BS...

Fresh water. Fresh water is diminishing. Most lakes and rivers in the world have gotten significantly smaller over the last 25 years. Sea levels have risen because of melting of ice sheets.

The Great Lakes are at their longterm average levels right now. That's a good thing 'cause they peaked a few years ago and it was causing enormous issues

Record breaking heatwave across the southwest heading our way. But you MAGAs keep shouting it's all a hoax, that should keep you cool

It's the middle of July! It's supposed to be hot!

Sure but changes were specific to the northern hemisphere just like the 50% he’s speaking of. So if we are measuring at a time not far removed from the end of an increased period of glaciation in the northern hemisphere, shouldn’t we anticipate a large drop 90 years later?

Sorry I wasn't following your specific conversation, just butting in after seeing repeated references to the Little Ice Age and glaciers currently growing. It was so regional it can't even really be generalized to the hemisphere. LIA is just a eurocentric term (was originally defined as the last advance of european alpine glaciers). Same goes for the preceding "Medieval Warm Period". Some places were warmer during the LIA than the MWP and vice versa. Some glaciers were growing due to local conditions and some retreating. It was much closer to a 50/50 split during either period compared to today when a large majority of glaciers are retreating.

Only 1% of the earth’s fresh water is in the form of surface water. And rivers and lakes only make up a fraction of surface water (most surface water is stored as ground ice and permafrost). About 70% of fresh water is stored in glaciers and about 30% is stored as groundwater.

Climate change does have a direct impact on our fresh water supply by the long-term melting of glaciers and the earlier annual melting snowpacks. However I agree with earlier posts that man’s present water supply issues are more related to outstripping available resources and living and farming in places we shouldn’t. And it’s not just California; the great plains are pumping the Ogallala Aquifer dry too...

Lol. The girl got it the worst.

What if in all that back and forth one of the idiots gets missed, and the driver runs over them?

Do they charge the driver? (Assume that was on US streets)

 

[85SugarVol]

I get that part. What I’m saying is why can’t we simply remove the salt through distillation or another process? It would seem to be an easy solution. Especially since most of the problem is out west and not far from the coast

Desalination plants. They’re real, and they work.

California just rejected one last year.

They're also very expensive.

No, no, no. Neil has spoken and Water Wars is the only possible end here.

It's not a worse idea than nuking a hurricane. Or injecting bleach.

Yes, those were terrible ideas too. Though I don’t think I agree with your classification of “no worse”.

Inject bleach - you could die
Nuke a storm - many could die
Block the Sun - everyone dies

 

[85SugarVol]

They're also very expensive.

Bruh… this is for the future of mankind. You can’t put a price tag on that.

Well, I guess that’s not entirely true. I’ve seen a $150T price tag floated.

But the plant in California was funded. They were cocked, locked, and ready to rock. $2B to produce 50 million gallons of fresh water per day.

California said - no, we don’t want it.

Reminds me of the nuclear energy meme.

Them - “Fossil Fuels are bad. We must reimagine our entire global economic system.”

Me - “Have you considered nuclear power?”

Them - “I don’t want to consider nuclear power! I WANT to reimagine our entire global economic system!!!”

Another death at the hands of climate change. Something must be done.

In November, the group was widely condemned after a protest in Berlin held up a crane that was supposed to free a cyclist who had been caught under a lorry and who later died in hospital.

The ones on the tarmac are young and stupid so I'd hope they don't lose their hands, this time. If they pull such a stunt again they'd be in stupid games - stupid prizes territory.
I wonder if whoever put them up to that will face any consequences .

Kerry's jet setting trip to China to talk about climate issues gets laughed out of town.
Lurch is nothing but a big joke & a waste of time trying to convince some people his agenda.
