Whew! That’s a load off.

I need to push back a bit on the EV credit. I think measures like this as well as protective tariffs ultimately hurt the manufacturer because they shield them from competition. It’s a dog eat dog world out there and if you keep your dog behind a fence he won’t learn how to fight.

I say we ban travel altogether. You will be restricted from venturing more than one hour walking distance from your place of birth. You will each be given one acre upon which to grow your food but you may not raise animals for consumption of their meat or produce.

Nope. You expended energy to push the mower. In order to maintain a set weight, you need to consume more calories when you exercise more. More calories = more food = more food production = more CO2. Everything has a cost.

It’s already looking like the most popular Christmas gift this year is going to be Gestapo Barbie. As a bonus, she comes in a set with two Brownshirt Kens.

2/2 …of the natural cycle of warming and cooling that happens on every time scale throughout his history. It’s caused by two things, 1) changes in solar radiation that occur cyclically, and 2) changes in orbital cycles known as Milankovitch Cycles.

1/2 This is called “global warming” or more recently “climate change”. The Earth has been warming for about 150 years since a period called the “Little Ice Age. During that period, the Earth was colder than it has been in 10,000 years. Don’t worry, though, this is all part…

That seems to be a normal trend.

Are there just 20 years shown here?? Can you provide a link?

You crossed a line. Not funny. Fuck you. Blocking you.

Zeke’s study is completely wrong for Tambora. The cooling had occurred before the eruption due to the Dalton Minimum. The yellow is TSI (NNLTSI1). Here’s a graphic…

Oops…never mind.

What was normal about 1991-2020? Serious question.

🧵5/ …Maunder Minimum, about 1700 AD, temperature jumped and continued to rise. CO2 didn’t start increasing for 75 years.
Please look at the facts and not the hype.

🧵4/ …the paleoclimate record…EXCEPT FOR THE LAST 156 YEARS…temperature change has always preceded changes in CO2 😳. And even worse, they don’t even get the last 156 year part right. At the end of the…

🧵3/ …nat/ut and −0.054 ± 0.040 nat/ut in the reverse direction. Therefore we have on these long time scales a significant IF only from the temperature data to the CO2, but not in the other direction, exactly opposite to that seen in the data from the last 156 years.
They’re saying that for all of…

🧵/2 …of 1000 years using the AICC201243,44 chronology. As already known the two data set are highly correlated with a correlation coefficient of 0.842 ± 0. By calculating the IF in nat per unit time from the 1000 year interpolated PAT time series to CO2 concentration we get 0.123 ± 0.060…

🧵/1 This paper is embarrassingly stupid. Did you get to this part?…
“Further we apply this technique to analyse paleoclimatological air temperature (PAT)40 and CO2/CH4 data from the EPICA Dome C ice cores41,42 from the last 800,000 years. Both time series are interpolated on the same time steps…

🧵/2 …changes occur. And, on timescales where correlation between temperature and CO2 is observed, temperature always leads CO2. Always. In light of these facts, why would we spend billions to capture CO2 when we can predict with certainty that it won’t have any impact on temperature.

🧵/1 It is easily demonstrated that throughout climate history, there has never been a causal link between atmospheric CO2 concentration and temperature. There are long periods when CO2 remains virtually unchanged while significant temperature…

Looks like we’re in the clear, kids. Global surface temperature is back where it was 9 years ago.

We need Bullwinkle now more than ever (and Rocky of course, that goes without saying).

I wonder if it could be nudged into hitting a particular city? Just curious.

You’ve got to love the irony here…”Large Areas of Fertile Cropland Rendered Useless by Underground CO2 Storage”.
That’s enough for me. I vote we kill carbon capture in the crib.
