"Climate Change" is causing the LA fires...or is it?

[asdf1234]

What are western countries doing to contribute to climate change? Why arent the main polluting countries concerned about climate change?

I would love to see the measurement over those years. Who measured? How did they measure? And how was it recorded?

 

As far as I know the oldest handwritten document is less than 5000 years old. And as far as I know that wasn't about the weather.

I am looking forward seeing your documents from the 133,000 years before that.

These numbers are very easy to prove with a 15 minute research project, they are based upon numerous very deep ice core samples and are proven with a significant degree of scientific knowledge. They are simply not debatable. 

 

Of course one can always engage in denial but denial without science is just simply partisan nonsense.

Who thought it is a good idea to build lots of wooden houses in areas which had high fire risks since a long time?

 

Not to mention, building homes on mountain sides so steep that you walk into the house at street level, walk about 20 feet to the other side of the house out on the balcony that has 20 to 25 foot posts holding that side of the house level.   

 

Then wonder why your houses like yours on the same mountain side slid down the mountain when it rained, carried down in mud slides.

I am sure some numbers can be "calculated" from fossils and all those things. But how accurately? 

It seems now the climate activists like to tell us that not even 2 degrees temperature change over 100 years make a catastrophic difference. Do we really know if 10,000 years ago 100,000 years ago or it was a degree or two warmer or cooler than now?

The Climate Change activists need to broaden their view from 100 years to 10,000 years.  The Earth has been heating and cooling for millenniums. And after it gets warm, it will get cold again - hot/cold cyclically ad-infinitum. And it will continue to do so well after man has wiped humanity off the planet. 


 

Yes, it is a lot hotter here in Pennsylvania than it was about 10-15,000 years ago, when this part of the state was covered by an iceberg.   

I'm glad global warming melted the ice.   And New York state and Canada should be glad too!

The DEI policy makers are responsible for coordinating funds to put the fire out. Nature and arsonist cause fires. “Climate Change” is real and a constant variable. “Human Caused Climate Change” is just another hysterical figment of the human imagination that hasn’t been proven.

Greed .... You just can't fix stupid

 

 

Just like how the Russians destroyed the Aral Sea.

Oh, its been proven alright.  Proof that hinges on unproven facts and statistics provided by people proovers that dismiss any and all challenges to their proof.  Learned this style of presentation from the Great Word Salad Master.  Except she is much better at it.

I know an attorney that can indict convict and incarcerate a Ham Cheese Sandwich for murder, all he needs is a jury that are easily persuaded and duped.

Of course it is. 

Wildfires and the Hoary Hoax of a Burning Planet

by David Stockman
"Here they go again, blaming the wildfire catastrophe in Los Angeles on Climate Change when the actual culprits are the very politicians who never stop howling about what is a monumental hoax.

In the first place, of course, the current raging California fires, like those which have periodically gone before, are largely a function of misguided government policies. Officials have essentially curtailed the supply of water available to LA firefighters, even as they have drastically increased the supply of combustible kindling and vegetation which feeds these wildfires. The latter, in turn, are being amplified by the seasonal Santa Ana winds, which have visited the California coast since time immemorial."

there seems to be an implication that the fires are man-made or man started - this ovelooks the fact that conditions have to be ideal for this to happen - this is brought about by MMCC. Furthermore any scientrtist will say that citing one incident as proof either way is not scientific - the entire incident needs to be taken in a world context - the OP is the hoax.

Surely you jest.  Was the diversion of rivers feeding the Aral Sea considered climate change?

Yes. Very accurate. Ice cores are remarkably faithful recorders of past climate, providing multiply duplicated reconstructions with small and quantifiable uncertainties. Ice core reconstructions in general do not rely on assumed quantitative time-invariance of empirical calibrations between climate and sedimentary characteristics, but instead rely on assuming little more than the constancy of physical law over time. The history of some of the discoveries that allow these ice-core climatic reconstructions is instructive for students, citizens and policymakers.

The fun for this state is going to be when people try to rebuild their houses and find out that they can't due to the new rules that have been in place for the building codes as well as the different parts of the California government that have to authorize the new buildings.

The majority of the people who lost their homes in both Pacific Palisades and Altadena are too poor to replace their homes.   The fires supposedly have caused over $250 Billion in damage and there is only an estimated $20-30 billion in insured losses.  Most have no insurance either through cancellation of their policies or they just couldn’t afford it in the first place.  The California FAIR program only has about $750 million with an additional $2 or 3 billion in reinsurance.

 

Most people are conditioned to think people in those areas are super-rich…but they aren’t.  Even though the average house in PP was $3.5 million and $1.2 million in Altadena, most of them are/were house rich (millionaires on paper only), and many of the homes were either bought a long time ago or inherited by children who also inherited the prop 13 tax basis (1/10th of what the people who bought recently) so could afford to hold onto the homes….barely.

 

Here’s some info on the incomes of the people who lived there….most will be lucky to afford a decent 1br condo when all is said and done.

Yeah okay another climate change debate argument. Don’t get me started on this topic because I will bring my relentless wreaking ball to the lie that somehow humans are responsible for it.

You are so silly - the diversion of rivers was man made this has then affected the climate. You are like so many climate simpleton who think if they find an example that doesn't fit their wonky ideas then the whole argument for MMCC is wrong

Talk about silly. This is utterly ridiculously absurd and comely stupid. Nature has been diverting rivers for millions of years.
