But Pol, you told that climate change was a Jewish conspiracy!

>The Arctic is on track to be free of sea ice this year or next for the first time in more than 100,000 years, a leading scientist has claimed.


>Professor Peter Wadhams, head of the Polar Ocean Physics Group at Cambridge University, told The Independent that the latest figures largely bore out a controversial prediction he made four years ago.
>"My prediction remains that the Arctic ice may well disappear, that is, have an area of less than one million sq km for September of this year," he said. "Even if the ice doesn't completely disappear, it is very likely that this will be a record low year. I'm convinced it will be less than 3.4 million sq km [the current record low].
>"I think there's a reasonable chance it could get down to a million this year and if it doesn't do it this year, it will do it next year. Ice free means the central part of the Arctic and the North Pole is ice free."
>Most of the remaining ice within the Arctic Circle would be trapped among the myriad of islands along Canada's north coast.
>The last time the Arctic was clear of ice is believed to be about 100,000 to 120,000 years ago.

What exactly is the downside to global warming? I'm still trying to figure this one out. Life on earth will have more access to resources than it did in the past 60 million years. This is amazing.

O2 is the limiter on Animal growth so we will be blue to breed bigger and better animals, or at least more.

Yes nuclear is a good option. It's already used to good effect (80% of France's energy is nuclear). US doesn't allow recycling of nuclear waste which can be used in the production process.

it's pretty hard to assess the threat from global warming.
On the one hand you have events like the End Permian event, which was the biggest extinction in Earth's history and was associated with a massive release of Carbon into the air (and therefore run-away climate change).
Then you have events like the paleocene eocene thermal maximum, which also was a period of rapid climate change, but only saw the extinction of certain groups of unicellular marine organisms, while terrestrial vertebrates rather flourished.

But then again, you have to ask to what extent these events can't be used as analogies, since both of them were processes that spanned several 10s of thousands of years, while we operate in a timespan of a couple 100 years

>>76319901
I think the stat is 60% of the human population lives in the "coastal zone" much of which could be put under water with minimal sea level rise. That's a huge loss of useable land and cities. The changes you're describing would take hundreds and hundreds of years

NEVERMIND GUYS, WE GONNA BE FINE. FALSE ALARM!!!

“Earth Day” 1970 Kenneth Watt, ecologist: “The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”

****

April 28, 1975 Newsweek “There are ominous signs that Earth’s weather patterns have begun to change dramatically….The evidence in support of these predictions has now begun to accumulate so massively that meteorologists are hard-pressed to keep up with it….The central fact is that…the earth’s climate seems to be cooling down…If the climate change is as profound as some of the pessimists fear, the resulting famines could be catastrophic.”

****

1976 Lowell Ponte in “The Cooling,”: “This cooling has already killed hundreds of thousands of people. If it continues and no strong action is taken, it will cause world famine, world chaos and world war, and this could all come about before the year 2000.”

****

July 9, 1971, Washington Post: “In the next 50 years fine dust that humans discharge into the atmosphere by burning fossil fuel will screen out so much of the sun’s rays that the Earth’s average temperature could fall by six degrees. Sustained emissions over five to ten years, could be sufficient to trigger an ice age.”

****

June, 1975, Nigel Calder in International Wildlife: “The continued rapid cooling of the earth since WWII is in accord with the increase in global air pollution associated with industrialization, mechanization, urbanization and exploding population.”

Earth is cooling. There has been no rise in temperature since 1990 and the average temp has decreased since 2004.

The sunspot cycle is at a minimum, the solar Maunder Minimum is approaching, and it's been nearly 1,500 years since the last mini ice age, with the average occurrence of mini ice-ages occurring roughly every 1100-1300 years.

Not only are we overdue for a mini ice age, but all of the sun's behaviors in the last few decades indicate that a massive weakening of the magnetosphere, and thus a loss of temperature, is but a generation or two away.

epin copypasta I made and keep posting in these threads because you dumb faggots can never come up with answers that aren't "hurr just google it m8 like a lot of scientists agree but never published their methodology or anything, they just agree so appeal to authority":

Prove it is:

A: happening (which I don't doubt).

B: can be directly linked to human actions like burning fossil fuels

C: post specifics, how the parts the humans are doing is actually significant. Like what percent is our fault.

D: post specifics, about just how fast "climate is changing" since "global warming" is no longer the meme term. I want real statistics like "we are getting X warmer every year and I will have to worry about it in Y years becuase Z happened and is devastating"

E: post specifics, about just why I should give two fucks if hipsters faggots have to move their shitty cities 2 miles inland while I pay for retarded infrastructure that would probably cost more

F: if all of that is all real and shit, why I would care if it's as tragic as the lefty faggots think, when they're all just destroying our countries and children's futures with mass immigration of mudslimes and taconiggers and increased socialism to support these subhumans

G: Explain how wind turbines that are complete and utter shit, cost more fossil fuels to build and transport and assemble and shit than they save over their liftime and only work in wind, but not too much wind so you have to use tradition power sources anyway, how solar isn't complete shit that get ruined by dust, only works during the day, without clouds or fog or any retard with an umbrella is within 20 miles

H: Explain why we should be pouring billions of my taxpayer money into this when it is proven the private sector is many times more efficient than any government grant program or research fund. If a company makes and patents the next big innovation in energy, they will quite literally become one of the biggest companies in existence

OH SHIT! THE SKY REALLY IS FALLING! I'M TOO YOUNG TO DIE!!

January 2000 Dr. Michael Oppenheimer of the Environmental Defense Fund (in a NY Times interview) on mild winters in New York: “But it does not take a scientist to size up the effects of snowless winters on children too young to remember the record-setting blizzards of 1996. For them, the pleasures of sledding and snowball fights are as out-of-date as hoop-rolling, and the delight of a snow day off from school is unknown.”

****

1969, Lubos Moti, Czech physicist: “It is now pretty clearly agreed that CO2 content [in the atmosphere] will rise 25% by 2000. This could increase the average temperature near the earth’s surface by 7 degrees Fahrenheit. This in turn could raise the level of the sea by 10 feet. Goodbye New York. Goodbye Washington, for that matter.”

****

Michael Oppenheimer, 1990, The Environmental Defense Fund: “By 1995, the greenhouse effect will be desolating the heartlands of North America and Eurasia with horrific drought, causing crop failures and food riots…”(By 1996) The Platte River of Nebraska will be dry, while a continent-wide black blizzard of prairie topsoil will stop traffic on interstates, strip paint from houses and shut down computers…The Mexican police will round up illegal American migrants surging into Mexico seeking work as field hands.”

****

June 30, 1989, Associated Press: U.N. OFFICIAL PREDICTS DISASTER–entire nations could be wiped off the face of the earth by rising sea levels if global warming is not reversed by the year 2000. Coastal flooding and crop failures would create an exodus of ‘eco-refugees,’ threatening political chaos,” said Brown, director of the U.N. Environment Program. He added that governments have a 10-year window of opportunity to solve the greenhouse effect.

>this meme again
Arctic sea ice is on a downward trend and has been for the last 20 years.

Doomsayers love to use it as a meme to predict the end of the world because "it's not happened for 100,000 years" - despite the fact that in the previous inter-glacial period, there was no free sea ice AT ALL during the warm maximum.

Why? Arctic sea ice is 2 metres thick in winter. Compare this to the icecap on top of Greenland at an average of 4,000m thick and you see why it's literally nothing.

In fact, the Greenland ice sheet has barely budged in terms of outflow rate for the last 30 years, despite the decline in summer maximum of sea ice.

I'm finish up an environmental biology degree so I'll quickly answer these and my sources would be lectures and my text books - I'm sure you could search for specifics from what I've said here.

A. Irrelevant as you already agree

B. I would have to explain how the lower levels of the atmosphere work - but basically it can be explained by the greenhouse effect.

C. The main greenhouse gases are in someway caused by human actions;
CO2: burning fossil fuels
Water vapor: naturally occurring but also caused by large scale industrial farming and irrigation
Methane: large scale animal husbandry (cows/pigs) and waste (land fills)

D. I don't have these stats off hand

E. This is retarded

F. What

G. The carbon footprint of creating turbines is offset within months. Renewable energy is the answer going forward. There are cons with the current technology of course. Solar can only be used in sunny parts of the world and not at night. Photovoltaic solar uses silica which can requires a lot of fresh water to produce. Wind turbines are ugly, loud and often have to be placed far away from where the power is needed.

I don't know much about global warming as I don't really give a fuck about it, but from what I've heard it's not exactly universally accepted among scientists that we are the ones causing it.

And even if "we", as in all humans, are causing it, the main culprits are going to be middle/east asian countries anyways.

B. Water vapor cannot be specifically linked to humans because it's the same composition as would normally occur, there is more of it from the reasons I listed. The others are not naturally occurring naturally at the levels it is now. There are others that we have contributed to the atmosphere like CFCs which are human created and can be measured.
Another interesting subject to look up would be the Grasshopper effect - high persistence human created chemicals (DDT) are found in untouched Arctic tundra.

C. This is a good question that I honestly don't have an answer for. Industrial Animal husbandry is responsible for so many ecological problems. Land loss, methane pollution, rain forest deforestation, ocean dead zones off the coasts caused by farm runoff.
Honestly the only solution is to not eat meat but thats impossible and I won't be participating in that shit.

D. Sorry I'm on my phone so it's difficult

F. I don't think climate change has to be a political issue really, we should work together to help curb it. I'm a republican but as I said I'm finishing an environmental biology degree.

G. I can't site as I said I'm on my phone, but the carbon footprint is minimal.
Agree that improvements need to be made but that doesn't mean we can't use renewable energy in its current state.

H. Oil companies receive huge subsidies, like massive. Meat producers and buyers also receive huge subsidies.

Again, when you get home, we need to have a real discussion because I've heard the exact opposite - that the carbon footprint will never be made up for during the entire lifetime of those shitty things. This includes transfer on the trucks and on-site construction with the cranes.

>C. This is a good question that I honestly don't have an answer for. Industrial Animal husbandry is responsible for so many ecological problems. Land loss, methane pollution, rain forest deforestation, ocean dead zones off the coasts caused by farm runoff.

Solution is to do that animal husbandry in more responsible way, eat more pork or chicken instead of beef or to develop a way to grow beef in petri dish. GMO cattle that farts less is one possible approach.

When it comes to deforestation caused by animal husbandry there has to be policy to replant forests or cycling grazing areas in sustainable way.

The problem with environmental responsibility in 3rd world shitholes is the fact that local shitskins tend to be too stupid to understand benefits of sustainable farming.

Farm runoffs can be managed by building proper barriers around rivers, using less fertilizers in better optimized way, usually involving crop rotations.

What to do with manure, use it as energy, put manure in bioreactor, harvest methane and use it for heating, cooking and shit.
>>
>>76334412
Yes responsibility is important, but the pure amount of (mostly cows) animals we have for food makes some of these impossible to fix. Cows inhabit more land than humans world wide. Current crop use is something like 60% to feed only animals, statistic is similar with fresh water. People who speak out against deforestation in South America are routinely jailed/killed (looking at you Brazil)
You make good points

>>76335321
>Yes responsibility is important, but the pure amount of (mostly cows) animals we have for food makes some of these impossible to fix.

Changing culinary habits isn't that hard, tools that can be used in first world to change 'em can be as easy as changing farming subsidies to favor more sustainable types of meat, mostly pork and chicken. First world can also indirectly influence meat exporters like Brazil or Argentina with tariff policy that favors pork or chicken instead of beef or requiring sustainability certificates for beef. Producers tend to follow money.

>People who speak out against deforestation in South America are routinely jailed/killed (looking at you Brazil)

I know. Third world corruption at it's finest.

Generally biotechnology can be used to make world lot more sustainable, but the biggest problems for that are food industry lobbyists in first world and corruption in 3rd world. The biggest problem with global warming and getting it under control is unsustainable population growth in 3rd world countries. Even if 1st world can manage to switch to cleantech solutions and become more sustainable, it's undone almost immediately by 3rd world. Big part of solving the issue is to force 3rd world to face consequences of it's uncontrolled population growth and to prevent 3rd worlders from immigrating into higher consumption countries.
>>
>>76336495
These levels of national and international oversight aren't realistic even if they're what need to be done. It would be impossible in America. Yes developing nations, especially China and India, are responsible for more carbon pollution and energy consumption than all developed countries combined. It's not clear how to stop them other than crush them with requirements and oversight. But that could only happen if they agree to being watched, and China will never play along.
That being said the Paris talks in February were a step in the right direction
>>
>>76337025

China is already starting to clean up it's act due to fact that local pollution is huge problem and that has to be solved, greenhouse gas emissions will get at least partially dealt at same time.

India and rest of third world are probably bigger problems on long run, but India too has many of same issues as China with pollution, but India is generally even more corrupt and inefficient at fixing it's shit.

Africa is the part of the problem that haven't been solved as it's population growth is still massive. Once they start to develop economically they too will start with coal as it's cheapest way to produce energy in most cases. Even if rest of the world helped them start their development straight with clean energy sources... empire of dust comes to mind. African countries are far too internally divided due to tribal policies and off the chart corruption.

Munshi, Jamal, Changes in the 13C/12C Ratio of Atmospheric CO2 1977-2014 (May 18, 2016). Available at SSRN: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2781465 or http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.2781465

Abstract:

Data for the 13C fraction in atmospheric CO2 from six different measurement stations in the sample period 1977-2014 are studied to estimate its dilution by fossil fuel emissions. No correlation between the annual rate of fossil fuel emissions and annual change in the 13C fraction of atmospheric CO2 is found. We conclude that the 13C data for atmospheric CO2 do not serve as empirical evidence that changes in atmospheric CO2 since the Industrial Revolution can be attributed to fossil fuel emissions.

This proves that it is from fossil fuels. You should really read before you post these things. 12C is taking a larger fraction of the carbon isotopes in the atmosphere which is why the ratio of 13C is lowering. 12C is from plant based sources, which means coal, which means anthropogenic. Im sure youll ignore this though.

Yeah, right. No correlation with fossil fuel output proves that the ratio is caused by fossil fuels.
You're oversimplifying the situation.

"Indeed it is not directly possible to make a distinction between 13C depleted fossil fuel burning and 13C depleted vegetation decay. The fingerprint of d13C changes by vegetation over the seasons is much larger than from fossil fuel burning (~60 GtC vs. 8 GtC, with about the same average d13C level)."

>E: post specifics, about just why I should give two fucks if hipsters faggots have to move their shitty cities 2 miles inland while I pay for retarded infrastructure that would probably cost more

Because it will have unpredictable effects on global ecosystem. You are unfortunately part of said system. Many of those hipster infested coastal cities are heavily industrialized or at least used to be, there are tons of pollution in soil of those cities. Once it gets underwater, lot of poison will be released into local now maritime ecosystem.

>F: if all of that is all real and shit, why I would care if it's as tragic as the lefty faggots think, when they're all just destroying our countries and children's futures with mass immigration of mudslimes and taconiggers and increased socialism to support these subhumans

Protecting environment by preventing people from low energy consumption countries to immigrate into high energy consumption countries is elemental in dealing with global warming. Same logic applies to consumption of any other natural resource. Only way to stop uncontrolled population growth in Africa is to force Africans to face it's consequences in full force by preventing uncontrolled immigration.

>G: Explain how wind turbines that are complete and utter shit, cost more fossil fuels to build and transport and assemble and shit than they save over their liftime and only work in wind, but not too much wind so you have to use tradition power sources anyway, how solar isn't complete shit that get ruined by dust, only works during the day, without clouds or fog or any retard with an umbrella is within 20 miles

Solar power in very effective in many places, energy storage technology is advancing. Real solution to energy lies in nuclear power, but for hippies that one word will cause their heads to melt. Also heavy investment into fusion research might bring long term solution, but that is always 30 years off. So thorium based fission is an option.

Private sector is usually rather reluctant to invest into basic research. That is usually funded by public institutions. Private sector does mostly application research based on basic research done by public sector.

Current private space programs are good example. It took almost half century for private sector to start doing it on their own... or at least almost on their own as public sector space programs are their biggest clients.

your only valid source says this right at the top

" While the Antarctic sea ice yearly wintertime maximum extent hit record highs from 2012 to 2014 before returning to average levels in 2015, both the Arctic wintertime maximum and its summer minimum extent have been in a sharp decline for the past decades."

They didn't give a fuck until problems with pollution became too big to ignore. Chinese political stability is based on governments ability to provide stable economic growth to it's people, pollution has started hinder their ability to deliver that. Modern day Chinese people aren't illiterate peasants like they used to be in past and they can now vote with their Yuans.

>Why would the Jews lie about this? What's to gain?

A remark from Maurice Strong, who organized the first U.N. Earth Climate Summit (1992) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil revealed the real goal: “We may get to the point where the only way of saving the world will be for industrialized civilization to collapse.”

Former U.S. Senator Timothy Wirth (D-CO), addressing the same Rio Climate Summit audience, agreed: “We have got to ride the global warming issue. Even if the theory of global warming is wrong, we will be doing the right thing in terms of economic policy and environmental policy.” (Wirth now heads the U.N. Foundation which lobbies for hundreds of billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to help underdeveloped countries fight climate change.)

Also speaking at the Rio conference, Deputy Assistant of State Richard Benedick said: “A global warming treaty [Kyoto] must be implemented even if there is no scientific evidence to back the [enhanced] greenhouse effect.”

In 1988, a former Canadian Minister of the Environment told editors and reporters of the Calgary Herald: “No matter if the science of global warming is all phony…climate change [provides] the greatest opportunity to bring about justice and equality in the world.”

In 1996, former Soviet Union President Mikhail Gorbachev emphasized the importance of using climate alarmism to advance socialist Marxist objectives: “The threat of environmental crisis will be the international disaster key to unlock the New World Order.”

Speaking at the 2000 U.N. Conference on Climate Change in the Hague, former President Jacques Chirac of France said: “For the first time, humanity is instituting a genuine instrument of global governance, one that should find a place within the World Environmental Organization which France and the European Union would like to see established.”

Climate Change is a religion.
Even the arguments here follow the language.

How fucking stupid do you have to be to deny this? Shipping companies are already planning better routes when the arctic ice is gone. Basically believing the ice isn't melting is like believing the moon landing was fake, or the earth is flat. Sheer unadulterated stupidity, you all should be embarrassed for yourselves and for your parents.

"It’s always the free flow of information which is the major threat to the American way of life. To right-wing guys, there’s nothing more dangerous than free access to information. And you know what that stems from? It stems from the beginning of Christian theology, when Adam and Eve were in the garden, how did we get into trouble? It wasn’t because it was an apple, it was the fruit of the tree of knowledge, so the essence of Christianity is, nobody gets to be smarter than God and access to knowledge and ownership of knowledge damns you. Knowledge itself is the work of the devil. We must not have knowledge and what leads to knowledge? Information. Nip it right there, nip it in the bud."

so rather than acknowledge a problem and work toward a solution lets politicize the issue so that some very wealthy individuals don't have to decrease their profits. Well done /pol/. You're being played for fools.

There's that religous language again.

Vikings established colonies in Greenland 1000 years ago during a warmer period that were later frozen out when the climate changed.

As little as 40 years ago, climate scientists were claiming we'd be in a new ice age by now because "particles" from industrial pollution would blot out the sunlight and lower temperatures.

The sky is always falling, and the solution is always more taxes.

'Believers' and 'Deniers' sounds like two sides in a religious war to me.

I'll consider becoming a Believer when Climate Change predictions become more accurate.

And, when the Climate Change believers aren't the same people who think sending billions of dollars of food aid a year to Africa so they can continue their exponential population growth is a good idea.

One of these things is not like the other...

Also, 4chan was launched in the same month that commercial supersonic air travel was ended. The Concorde plane made its final commercial flight a mere 23 days after this website was launched. Perhaps shutting this website down will bring back supersonic air travel.

That is how you sound. Just because two things happen around the same time does not mean they're connected. ESPECIALLY if there is an established pattern of behavior with one of the things in question. If climate change has been behaving the way it is ever since there has been a climate, it is unreasonable to assume some unrelated thing we're doing now is responsible for the climate following its pattern.
