NBC meteorologist cites controversial UN study claiming extreme heat will make US south unlivable for humans

An NBC meteorologist claimed the idea that extreme heat could make some southern states unlivable for humans might be 'closer' than people think.

Why is there migration from blue run northern states to red run southern states?

In the long run maybe it’s not such a great idea?

Americans in search of a better life are moving from blue states to red states—but it could backfire big time

You get what you pay for. People born in New York and California live for 77.7 and 79 years, but people in Mississippi and Louisiana live to 71.9 and 73.1.

Like I said, when Obama sells his at-sea-level estate because he feels it will be under water shortly, and starts exclusively flying private because of his fear of emissions...

I'll start taking it seriously.

Until then...money grab/grift.

Obama has certainly demonstrated his share of hypocrisy over the years. Planning a birthday party during Covid at his Martha's Vineyard estate with 700 invited guests - - later dramatically scaled back after public criticism - - is one example. But if you think owning a home on Martha's Vineyard and "flying private" (I think you botched that part of the sentence, but I know what you meant) reflect hypocrisy when it comes to climate change, that's a swing and a miss.

Neither Obama's home, nor any house on the Vineyard, is going to be under water anytime soon. And even if that were the case, that's his risk to assume and impacts no one other than Obama and his family. With respect to flying private, I would think commercial air transportation for a former president would be a logistical nightmare for his Secret Service detail, and disruptive for other travelers.

Many politicians and bigwigs are unfortunately completely wedded to their jetset lifestyle. That doesn't alter the science of climate change in the least.

Would it be better if they always walked the walk rather than merely talked the talk and did stupid shit merely for show? Of course. Many advocates for more sustainable living do in fact eschew jet transportation and go to great lengths to curb their personal CO2 production. I wish it were the norm.

Is prompting others to change their ways far preferable to anti-science denialism? Absolutely.

If the U.S. government provides me a personal private jet, I will be the largest climate cult advocate anyone has ever seen.

I will make Greta look like Daniel Plainview.

this is why you don't buy into this crap. noodle's brethren at purdue already fixed the problem. super white paint. paint everything white. done. easy. #nextproblem

Turns out all we may need to stop climate change is 139 billion gallons of super-duper white paint

According to one professor, we may be able to stop climate change if we used a new super white paint to cover the entire United States

The earth has warmed and cooled since it was formed. Those periods have lasted hundreds of years to thousands. I think it is smart to be concerned with what type of impact human interaction has on the environment. The problem is that the environmental movement is led by people who act like lunatics.

They’re not acting.

 

[vesuvius13]

Congratulations, Mr. Obvious. "Recorded human history" with respect to temperature measurements indeed means the period of time in which humans have recorded temperature.

Guillaume Amontons had a decent gas themometer in the late 1600s and IIRC Ben Franklin had weather data including temperature logged for Philadelphia by the mid-1700s. But a database comprehensive enough to ascertain a mean global temperature probably hasn't existed for more than 100 years.

That said, would it concern you if the 100 hottest days of the past 100 years all occurred within the past 10 years?

It is only because NSAA and others adjusted the temps from the back years and ignore that we were coming out of a mini-ice age. It is no hotter in our area than any year and we are in summer without. It had been 104 back in 1998 but hasn't broken 95 yet this year. Scientists are dealing with misinformation as a result are misleading people about the Earth's temperature. They don't want to explain to people they distorting the temperature because they get money to say people are causing.

I hate to tell you we scientist have been readjusting temperatures from the past. Look at the dust bowl and record temps but NSAA adjusted the temps down so they would be the highest on record. We have been coming out of a mini ice age from the 1820's so temps would rise. None of the sea level predictions haven't happened so far so they have altered the "science" of climate change.

This is no different than someone reminding us that it snowed today, so how can we be getting warmer. Its average temperatures throughout the year, not one day.

Got any proof that NASA is fudging their thermometers and getting paid to do so?

Never mind, Snopes researched this and found this rumor to be FALSE.

Was Global Warming Data 'Faked' to 'Fit Climate Change Fictions'?

That adjustments are made to records of climate is neither a scoop, nor a secret, nor a controversy.

Every now and then I show weakness, unfortunately, and click on "show ignored content". I then see what the losers like you have to say. But I'm trying not to do that. You and your dozen other screen names that you have used in the past kind of clog up my ignore list. The world is a better place, though, when not reading your bullshit. The fact-checking /correcting of your goofball takes would consume half my day

It’s very convenient that everyone who dismantles your arguments for all to see is a “loser” or “bullshit”.

Well done.

Disengage. Run along.

Come on Harry. Demographics and obesity play huge factors on that.

 

[Indyhorn]

No, I really don't, but I'm convinced there's been a change. Sure, we still get the occasional hard cold snap, but they seem to be fewer and further between.

We also seem to panic nowadays when it does get cold or snowy. Seems like they're all the time cancelling school just for it being cold, and will cancel it for snow flurries that don't even cover the grass. I don't think they ever cancelled for cold when I was a kid, and they only had snow days when the roads were damn near impassable.

Yep back in the 1960’s through 1980’s in Bloomington, kids and teachers hoped the snow wouldn’t commence until like 4:30am to prevent plows from clearing roads by 6:30am when busses roll out- otherwise we had school!

Resource/climate/pollution/economy concerns related to overpopulation became a thing before you or I were born. Well, before Abe Lincoln was even born.. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Robert_Malthus

Then the population bomb book in the 1960s ramped up the concern.

Population reduction over time doesn't involve killing people and it doesn't necessarily mean you need a Draconian one child policy like China had. A healthy, educated society tends not to grow past critical resource limits.
