The article in question was about published research. If you have any proof that the article contain falsehoods, please share that with the rest of us. In other words, put up or...

Without offering evidence and explanation you have previously accused me of not understanding. And yet here is proof that you don't understand the difference between climate and weather. I am happy to be able to offer this piece of assistance that should dispel your ignorance: "Climate is the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area. Weather can change from hour-to-hour, day-to-day, month-to-month or even year-to-year. A region's weather patterns, usually tracked for at least 30 years, are considered its climate." https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/all-about-climate/

Actually, one of the falsehoods perpetrated by denialists such as yourself is that the scientific consensus was that the earth was cooling. Even back then, when climatology was in its infancy, that was a falsehood. Study debunks 'global cooling' concern of '70s The '70s was an unusually cold decade. Newsweek, Time, The New York Times and National Geographic published articles at the time speculating on the causes of the unusual cold and about the possibility of a new ice age. But Thomas Peterson of the National Climatic Data Center surveyed dozens of peer-reviewed scientific articles from 1965 to 1979 and found that only seven supported global cooling, while 44 predicted warming. https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=4335191&page=1 The article goes on to say the 20 articles were neutral on the issue.

I actually believe that the bombing campaign should be expanded. Israel should target a country that helped to keep those terrorists in power for years. Israel should start bombing Israel now.

I don't know what rock you've been sleeping under. Type this into google and see what you come up with: hamas attack worst days for jews since the holocaust

Because the Holocaust had to be mentioned? Does Hamas have the means to pose an existential threat to Israel? They exploited a weakness in Israel defense for one day. The Holocaust mostly eliminated the Jewish populations of Germany and Eastern Europe. Invoking it is just a cynical way to arouse emotion and paralyze thinking.

You sure about that? You might want to consider what the ADL is up to: The Anti-Defamation League Has Abandoned Some of the People It Exists to Protect Over the past six months, Jonathan Greenblatt, head of the Anti-Defamation League, has stressed repeatedly that he is concerned about rising antisemitism... For example, the ADL reportedly mapped protests for a cease-fire led by the Jewish groups Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow as antisemitic incidents. The ADL also, in its report on antisemitism this year, updated its methodology to include certain anti-Israel incidents in its calculation of how much antisemitism had risen. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2024/04/antisemitism-adl-defamation-league-greenblatt-jews-israel-encampments-ceasefire.html?pay=1715176156742&support_journalism=please

I think people feel sarcasm is bad when it gores their oxen.

What these propagandists failed to note is the reason is that the health ministry now has to estimate is that the hospitals have been destroyed and their excavation teams no longer exist. Also, you may want to note that thousands of corpses are believed to be buried in the rubble. Below is taken from a piece of honest journalism: In Gaza, Authorities Lose Count of the Dead The collapse of hospitals and rescue services means many now die in obscurity “At the beginning we had systems, we had hospitals,” said Medhat Abbas, a spokesman for the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza. “The Civil Defense teams were able to get people who were stuck under the rubble. Then the whole system collapsed.” https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/in-gaza-authorities-lose-count-of-the-dead-779ff694

Because sarcasm is bad?

I checked the date on that article. It was published today. US confirms holding up sale of heavy bombs it feared Israel would use in Rafah Feeling its concerns over looming major offensive weren’t getting through to Israel, Washington took unprecedented step to ensure its heavy explosives weren’t used in south Gaza city By JACOB MAGID FOLLOW Today, 7:30 am https://www.timesofisrael.com/us-confirms-holding-up-sale-of-heavy-bombs-it-feared-israel-would-use-in-rafah/?utm_source=article_hpsidebar&utm_medium=desktop_site&utm_campaign=us-signals-backing-for-limited-op-after-idf-takes-over-gazan-side-of-rafah-crossing

This is what's new: Confirmation of the arms pause came just hours after Israel sent tanks into the city in southern Gaza. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/07/us/politics/israel-biden-arms.html You think the timing of that confirmation is just a coincidence?

I guess I've seen I've seen the Holocaust shamelessly exploited too many times in order to justify Israel's tactics in its invasion of Gaza such as the meme "Deadliest Day for Jews Since the Holocaust" and similar formulations. Or criticism of Israel's conduct in Gaza being equated with anti-Semitism. source

Would this be the same Joe Biden who is now withholding bombs from Israel because of its plans to invade Rafah? Or is that a different Joe Biden?

And is Israeli solicitude for the welfare of reporters the same reason they won't allow them to visit camps where Hamas prisoners are being held?(whether all those being held are actually Hamas soldiers or linked at all to Hamas is another matter)

Reporters have made it clear that they don't expect any protection from the Israelis. And your foolish comment about Al Jazeera demonstrates precisely why independent outside reporters are needed. People like you will reflexively use the affiliations of those reporters currently inside GAZa to disqualify them.

"How much protein is in an egg? On average, a medium-size egg contains around 6.4 grams of protein which makes up around 12.6% of the overall edible portion." How much protein i The thing is, eggs don't just happen by magic, do they? It takes chicken feed. And what does chicken feed consist of? "The main ingredient of all chicken feed (over 85%) is grains and grain by-products, protein-producing seeds, and meal made from them such as canola or soybean meal. So, in essence, all chicken is “grain-fed.” And what is the ratio of chicken feed consumed to eggs generated: "The average FCR can vary depending on various factors, including genetics, nutrition, management practices, and environmental conditions. However, a commonly accepted range for FCR in laying hens is between 2,5 and 4,0. This means that, on average, it takes 2,5 to 4,0 kilograms of feed to produce one dozen (12) eggs" So if it takes on average 3.25 kilograms to produce 12 eggs, that mean takes about 250 grams of grain, over half a pound, to produce one egg or about 7 grams of protein. Not so efficient. As you apparently aren't aware, a far more efficient way to get a complete protein is to combine eggs with soybeans in a 2 to 1 ratio. For pulses the ratio is closer to 1 to 1. It's clear that the civilizations of the east have hit upon a far more efficient way of getting their protein needs met than yours does. What a shocker that is!

Just as in the case of what Trump says, there's very little that Orban says that should ever be believed. This is one of those very rare instances where he's speaking honestly.

The sense I get from the MIT article I've linked to is that it could take centuries to return the climate more or less to where it was before (keeping in mind that climates are dynamic moving targets) but not millennia. https://climate.mit.edu/ask-mit/how-long-will-it-take-temperatures-stop-rising-or-return-normal-if-we-stop-emitting#:~:text=Temperatures will likely stop rising,we started burning fossil fuels. But no one knows for sure. Also, none of the scenarios addressed in this article posited active CO2 removal intervention by humans over and above natural processes. I don't hold out much hope for that being feasible anytime soon, but who knows?

Ignoring the elephant in the room much?

Another irrelevant comment. If always being "against something" is behind the current campus situation, then such demonstrations would always be taking place. Obviously that's not the case.

Et tu, Biden? Biden withheld bomb shipment to Israel out of fear it could be used in Rafah: Israel's Rafah plans prompted review of weapons transfers, official says. https://news.google.com/articles/CBMid2h0dHBzOi8vYWJjbmV3cy5nby5jb20vUG9saXRpY3MvYmlkZW4tYWRtaW5pc3RyYXRpb24tcGF1c2VzLWFtbXVuaXRpb24tc2hpcG1lbnRzLWlzcmFlbC11cy1vZmZpY2lhbHMvc3Rvcnk_aWQ9MTA5OTkzMjcw0gF7aHR0cHM6Ly9hYmNuZXdzLmdvLmNvbS9hbXAvUG9saXRpY3MvYmlkZW4tYWRtaW5pc3RyYXRpb24tcGF1c2VzLWFtbXVuaXRpb24tc2hpcG1lbnRzLWlzcmFlbC11cy1vZmZpY2lhbHMvc3Rvcnk_aWQ9MTA5OTkzMjcw?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen I guess Biden is now on the side of the terrorists, too

Et tu, Tories? Israeli offensive on Rafah would break international law, UK minister says Andrew Mitchell says military action on city will not eradicate Hamas and priority is to secure a permanent ceasefire https://amp.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/may/07/israeli-offensive-on-rafah-would-break-international-law-uk-minister-says

Actually, you prefer to ignore them. As it's been the case that Ukraine has been starved of munitions thanks to the Republicans in Congress. And now that situation has dramatically changed.

What you apparently don't know is that Russia right now is taking advantage of Ukraine's current shortage of weapons. That situation is about to change.
