Hot seasons are, well, hot, bit they end when it starts raining. Happens every year around this time. No need to get your knickers in a twist about trying to change the weather. 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/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you're so fond of links, here is a list of 1,900 very clever and distinguished folks who think that the so-called "climate emergency" is a load of politicised codswallop... or are your links bigger than mine because yours feature academics who don’t live in the real world? https://clintel.org/world-climate-declaration/ Climate pseudoscience is just a way of lining people's pockets and keeping the peasants poor, cold and immobile. Of course, you'll counter with more links of your own, because you lack the faculties to do your own analysis and question what you post.

(At the time this article was published the total number of signatories was 1609) Climate list claim melts away under closer inspection PolitiFact FL: Not all 1.6K signatories of declaration against climate change were scientists The updated version with 1,609 signatories, published Aug. 14, marked 12 people as deceased. Among the scientists, specialties included geology, chemistry, physics and agriculture. Those with climate expertise were few. The list included engineers, doctors, lawyers, mathematicians, architects, entrepreneurs, and economists. Others did not list any occupation at all.

Politfact is funded by inter alia the Poynter Institute, and look at all the lefty outfits that fund them: https://www.poynter.org/major-funders/ Dig around a bit and you’ll see that Bill Gates is another contributor. All this climate hogwash is political or commercial. Haven't you realised it yet? Why are you so gullible? Now please provide me with your analysis on the storage problem.

Once again, rather than address the facts, you try to slur the source. The facts are clear, Not only are very very few of the signatories not climatologists, but a large number of them aren't even scientists. Once again, you've got nothing.

What is a "climatologist" exactly? Is it someone funded by the green industry who feeds phoney data into made up algorithms? Just like those covid "scientists" did, eh? Lots of people on the list are highly educated people covering a wide range of disciplines, including Nobel laureates, etcetera. Give me your analysis of the storage problem, or I'll start thinking you're a link posting bot. Googling links means you're bone idle, and unable to introduce your own analysis into the debate.

"What is a "climatologist" exactly? Is it someone funded by the green industry who feeds phoney data into made up algorithms?" More conspiracy claims from you. Who care how highly educated some of the people on that list are? If you had a health problem, would you go to a geologist for treatment? In your world, apparently, there is no such thing as expertise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you stay at home to minimise your carbon footprint, or do you fly around in carbon belching aircraft? You post here, so I'm guessing the latter, which means you aren't part of the solution to your imaginary problem, which in turn means you don't really believe in the so-called "climate emergency" yourself, preferring to lecture others.
