Title: climate skeptics: sun farts black holes at us Post by freediver on Apr 14th, 2019 at 1:48pm
I am noticing this pattern of behaviour getting more and more extreme as the number of climate skeptics dwindles to the most stubborn remnants. Basically they flood a thread with incredibly stupid copy and paste jobs, and occasionally little gems of their own making like this one.

Sorry FD maybe I haven't made myself very clear.
What I have called a black hole or measles on the surface of the sun is more about sunspots and solar wind that comes out of them. Not the traditional black holes in space. I call them black holes because sometimes they do look like a black hole on the surface of the sun. Sometimes I call them measles but for your clarity in the future I will try to remember to call them by their proper name sunspots............. ;) :) I should add that sunspots (black holes on the surface of the sun) on the sun are like your anus when you unleash some gas. But sunspots (measles) continually spurt out solar winds directed at the Earth as its sails on by........ ;) :) Clear as mud now, I hope it is............... :D The role of sunspots and solar winds in climate change https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/sun-spots-and-climate-change/ |

I think Climate change and especially the C02 debate is a great distraction to the fact that when you burn Fossil fuels it poisons us and the earth (just look at the air in big cities)….
The biggist tragedy it seems with this debate is when someone decides that the world isnt warming from man made elements and especial C02 then they tend to ignore that Fossil Fuel poison us. The usual reply is everything is fine, we don't need to change. ;) |

For some reason humans find it very difficult dealing with the truth. Population growth is the real issue with the climate. Mohler nature can heal. |

Education, incentives for women to go on contraceptives (men are hopeless as they arnt the ones to get pregnant). Really the only way to reduce population is to make it attractive to not have children and easy, probably easy would be the main one... When you say not PC I suppose your talking about culling… If your willing to cull your own family first then I suppose you can start the topic;) |

Giving women control over their own body is politically correct, and seems to be all that is required to bring population under control.

Turn off the Internet. Turn off the power. Turn off modern medicine. Stop drilling oil. Stop producing food. Hell, we can't produce enough food to feed the current population figures, yet we want to increase the population???? Stupid humans. Turn off the life support systems that most humans rely on and cannot live without. Let nature take its course. If my family fails then so be it but I recon we stand a good chance against most in this civilisation. The strong will survive and the weak will be no longer....sorta like nature intended in the first place before some subhuman pox decided to keep everyone alive for financial reasons only. Financial reasons??? Yeah that's right. Keep all alive at any cost no matter the quality of life that remains. As long as you're alive is all that matters. How you remain alive is not really an issue.....que poverty. Even a seriously sick older person cannot exit the world if they wish to, or in some countries a rape victim cannot abort a child that is not really wanted. How bloody absurd are we? It's not about how that person feels....it's about how the rest of you are programed to feel if they want to take their own life or about their pregnancy...when in reality it's none of your bloody business. Then we like to sponsor 3rd worlders, under the guise that we are "educating" them, so they can create more 3rd worlders who are going to create even more.....bloody ridiculous. Why? Because now those countries are overflowing with people living in poverty that need to either seek asylum or refugee status due to the increase in war, malitia activity , civil war or just want out of a shitttty situation....wonder where the money comes from for all this war and unrest???? We knock down trees to create somewhere to live....yet we can't live without trees. We drill for natural gas and poison our water supplies.....yet we need water to live. We have filled our planets surface with cement...when we should be filling it with trees. Humans need to start recognising over population as the new climate change....cause it's real. Get rid of the bleeding hearts and take a step back to our default setting of being an animal. Nature will win in the end. |

I think it is more about going back to what we are supposed to be. No middle ages title, just life as it should be. Natural selection is nature's way of cleansing itself. Every other animal, without human interference, goes through the same selection...generation after generation....but not the human. What's this world going to be like with double the human population we have now? That's where we are heading with our current mindset. |

And yet removing fossil fuels will do exactly that. Far less cropping, farming. People can only do so much per day without that aid.
Of course mules and oxen could make a comeback. And even that ignores fertilisers. Although they could collect the crap, pulverise it and spread it. But I can't see millenials doing that. And back to dung fires which kill so many in poor countries even now. |

More Kenyans are turning to solar power rather than connections to the country’s electric grid Kenya has several notable solar power distributors including M-Kopa with locally adopted payment schemes including pay-as-you-go and microfinance.

blah blah, all pie in the sky stuff, you want no government's and anarchy.... as long as it doesn't effect your family because you guys pay taxes...… Natural selection is just a nice way of describing what is happening now in the middle east and Africa...… you just want the rest of the world to follow, except of course in your little pocket of the world. ;) At least you could have some real idea's, maybe round up of groups and kill them. Chemical castration Impose birthing rights like china did. Take away the goverment of a area and rule and see what happens, natural selection. instead your idea is to get rid the internet stop drilling oil so basic with no reason for them or thought of what that wll do. Yes i agree that there is to much population growth and starting with the 3rd world countries the rest of the world has to intervene and put a stop to it (even if the country has no oil), with contraceptive's , chemical castrating if needed ,even putting some of the highly unnourished souls to rest. Then they can attack the bigger countries and demand lower populations as well (im thinking china and India). No easy way to do it and very big brotherish... i suppose you can have that scenario or yours where you just get rid of civilization and see how it pans out...... I'm sure there are other ways to do it to, none seam to be working at the moment though. ;) |

What mass extinction event would that be? Surely not the one that is a computer model of all the species we don't know that are dying? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D "Earth Is Not in the Midst of a Sixth Mass Extinction “As scientists we have a responsibility to be accurate about such comparisons.” " "At the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America, Smithsonian paleontologist Doug Erwin took the podium to address a ballroom full of geologists on the dynamics of mass extinctions and power grid failures—which, he claimed, unfold in the same way." "Erwin is one of the world’s experts on the End-Permian mass extinction, an unthinkable volcanic nightmare that nearly ended life on earth 252 million years ago." "Surely our Anthropocene extinction can confidently take its place next to the juggernauts of deep time—the Ordovician, Devonian, Permian, Triassic and Cretaceous extinctions. Erwin says no. He thinks it’s junk science. “Many of those making facile comparisons between the current situation and past mass extinctions don’t have a clue about the difference in the nature of the data, much less how truly awful the mass extinctions recorded in the marine fossil record actually were,” he wrote me in an email. “It is absolutely critical to recognize that I am NOT claiming that humans haven’t done great damage to marine and terrestrial [ecosystems], nor that many extinctions have not occurred and more will certainly occur in the near future. But I do think that as scientists we have a responsibility to be accurate about such comparisons.” "Passenger pigeons all but serve as the mascot of the “sixth mass extinction,” their extirpation an ecological tragedy on a massive scale, and proof that humans are a geologically destructive force to be reckoned with. “So then you ask: in a non-archaeological context, how many fossil passenger pigeons are there? How many records are there of fossil passenger pigeons?” “Not many?” I offered. “Two,” he said. “So here’s an incredibly abundant bird that we wiped out. But if you look in the fossil record, you wouldn’t even know that they were there.” " https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2017/06/the-ends-of-the-world/529545/ |

Yes the current Anthropocene extinction event As increasingly accepted theories have argued—and as the Science papers show—we are now in the midst of the sixth great extinction, the unsettlingly-named Anthropocene, or the age of the humans. The numbers are sobering: Over all, there has been a human-driven decline in the populations of all species by 25% over the past 500 years, but not all groups have suffered equally. Up to a third of all species of vertebrates are now considered threatened, as are 45% of most species of invertebrates. Among the vertebrates, amphibians are getting clobbered, with 41% of species in trouble, compared to just 17% of birds—at least so far. The various orders of insects suffer differently too: 35% of Lepidopteran species are in decline (goodbye butterflies), which sounds bad enough, but it’s nothing compared to the similar struggles of nearly 100% of Orthoptera species (crickets, grasshoppers and katydids, look your last). The result of all this species loss—what the Science researchers dub defaunation—goes far beyond simply leaving us with a less rich, less diverse world. After all, the Earth bounced back from far worse extinctions and did just fine. But it bounced back a different way each time, and the most recent version, the one in which we emerged, is the one we like—and it’s easy to destroy. http://time.com/3035872/sixth-great-extinction/ |

Yes. And extinctions happen without interference from humans. But back to my previous post seeing as people don't seem to have read the article -- " “So you can ask, ‘Okay, well, how many geographically widespread, abundant, durably skeletonized marine taxa have gone extinct thus far?’ And the answer is, pretty close to zero,” Erwin pointed out. In fact, of the best-assessed groups of modern animals—like stony corals, amphibians, birds and mammals—somewhere between 0 and 1 percent of species have gone extinct in recent human history. By comparison, the hellscape of End-Permian mass extinction claimed upwards of 90 percent of all species on earth." |

So you happily make the 90% claim at the same time as acknowledging the impossibility of gathering the evidence from that far back.
Even the people who claim the current even is a mass extinction do not claim claim that the event is over. It is only just beginning. As your own evidence points out: It is absolutely critical to recognize that I am NOT claiming that humans haven’t done great damage to marine and terrestrial [ecosystems], nor that many extinctions have not occurred and more will certainly occur in the near future. |

Too lazy to follow the link? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D "I had written to Erwin to get his take on the contemporary idea that there is currently a sixth mass extinction under way on our planet on par with the so-called Big Five mass extinctions in the history of animal life. Many popular science articles take this as a given, and indeed, there’s something emotionally satisfying about the idea that humans’ hubris and shortsightedness are so profound that we’re bringing down the whole planet with us." So written by someone who was convinced it was true. "Like all extinction events, so far this one has been phased and complex, spanning tens of thousands of years and starting when our kind left Africa. Other mass extinctions buried deep in earth’s history have similarly played out over tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years. To future geologists, then, the huge wave of extinctions a few thousand years ago as First Peoples spread out into new continents and remote archipelagoes will be all but indistinguishable from the current wave of destruction loosed by modernity and its growing appetites. Surely we’ve earned our place in the pantheon next to the greatest ecological catastrophes of all time: the so-called Big Five mass extinctions of earth history. Surely our Anthropocene extinction can confidently take its place next to the juggernauts of deep time—the Ordovician, Devonian, Permian, Triassic and Cretaceous extinctions. Erwin says no. He thinks it’s junk science. “Many of those making facile comparisons between the current situation and past mass extinctions don’t have a clue about the difference in the nature of the data, much less how truly awful the mass extinctions recorded in the marine fossil record actually were,” he wrote me in an email. “It is absolutely critical to recognize that I am NOT claiming that humans haven’t done great damage to marine and terrestrial [ecosystems], nor that many extinctions have not occurred and more will certainly occur in the near future. But I do think that as scientists we have a responsibility to be accurate about such comparisons.” " So he says it is junk science. Now which experts do you want to cite to prove your assertion? |

"Many of those making facile comparisons between the current situation and past mass extinctions don't have a clue about the difference in the nature of the data, much less how truly awful the mass extinctions recorded in the marine fossil record actually were," he told The Atlantic last month." https://www.sciencealert.com/earth-is-on-its-way-to-the-biggest-mass-extinction-since-the-dinosaurs-scientists-warn Note: Junk science in quotes.

"Three scientists who have studied extinctions of thousands of species of vertebrates believe so, though others are skeptical of the doomsday-like findings."
"“This is the first mass extinction which the cause knows what it's doing and is harming itself,” another co-author, Stanford University biology professor Paul Ehrlich, said." https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2017/07/12/earth-is-on-its-way-to-the-biggest-mass-extinction-since-the-dinosaurs-scientists-warn/?utm_term=.2c05d3f42b8c "Ehrlich is largely responsible for this view, having co-published “The Population Bomb” with The Sierra Club in 1968. The book made a number of claims including that millions of humans would starve to death in the 1970s and 1980s, mass famines would sweep England leading to the country’s demise, and that ecological destruction would devastate the planet causing the collapse of civilization." https://dailycaller.com/2016/04/22/7-enviro-predictions-from-earth-day-1970-that-were-just-dead-wrong/ We seem to have survived the 1970's and 1980's.

Ahh yes you forgot this part 1970s awareness Climate scientists were aware that predictions based on this trend were not possible - because the trend was poorly studied and not understood (for example see reference[17]). Despite that, in the popular press the possibility of cooling was reported generally without the caveats present in the scientific reports, and "unusually severe winters in Asia and parts of North America in 1972 and 1973...pushed the issue into the public consciousness" so the popular press though it was going to cool , not the Climate scientists, good catch there ajax ;) |
