A Doctor of Theology indeed. Who said Climate Change/AGW was not a religion?

Not much point, when according to you, the IPCC doesn't "do" science....

So according to the "science" of the IPCC -

Floods - In summary there is low confidence in the human influence on the changes in high river flows on the global scale. Confidence is in general low in attributing changes in the probability or magnitude of flood events to human influence because of a limited number of studies and differences in the results of these studies, and large modelling uncertainties.

IPCC  AR6 WG1 11.5.4


Droughts - There is medium confidence in the ability of ESMs to simulate trends and anomalies in precipitation deficits and AED, and also medium confidence in the ability of ESMs and hydrological models to simulate trends and anomalies in soil moisture and streamflow deficits, on global and regional scales

IPCC AR6 WG1 11.6.3.6

The high-end scenarios RCP8.5 or SSP5-8.5 have recently been argued
to be implausible to unfold (e.g., Hausfather and Peters, 2020; see
Chapter 3 of the AR6 WGIII).

WG1 4.2.2

Most multi-model studies assuming rapid economic growth/business-as-usual scenarios (A2,A1B, RCP8.5) show an increase in future woody biomass and areas of woody cover towards the end of the 21st century in the temperate regions (Boit et al., 2016; Nabuurs et al., 2017) and in tropical forests in East Africa (Ross et al., 2021) but decrease in the remaining tropical regions (Anadón et al., 2014; Boit et al., 2016; Lyra et al., 2017; Nabuurs et al., 2017; Maia et al., 2020).

IPCC AR6 WG11 2.5.2.6

So that is what the "science" says. Anything that says otherwise is not following the science.

Accumulated Cyclone Energy (not mentioned by the IPCC) shows no increase in intensity or frequency of cyclones.

https://i0.wp.com/wattsupwiththat.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/image-141.png

So which "science" do you prefer? The one for the "science" or the one the "science" that says in effect "we are doomed"? ::)

It's a cult. A "Doctor of Theology" to a schoolgirl who became famous for NOT going to school.

But she has thd dar if the Gods through virtue and purity. ;D ;D

Greta - an autistic girl, a rabid Atheist who skipped school AND NEVER studied anything at Uni AND never paid a Uni fee - should NOT be entitled to a BACHELOR degree in Theology let alone a DOCTORATE!

It makes a complete mockery of the higher education system and should raise red flags and alarm bells for those of us who have kids and who have suffered/struggled to put them through their degree/s.

The time, the effort, the dedication AND the hundreds of thousands of dollars we’ve paid to get 1 child through Uni in a discipline which reflects their ability, affinity and personality ... is a JOURNEY which Greta AND her parents haven’t experienced. They arrived at a destination without taking the journey.

And that’s not right. It’s not right for her OR for any other child really.

Tell us what the "real problem" is. ::)

At age 16, high school dropout Thunberg was simply being used by her
parents as a public voice for their own climate advocacy... who could resist
a sweet, keen young female child sprouting climate change crapola,
complete with angry self-interest and conveniently timed crocodile tears?

And now this media darling is telling other 16-year-olds to give school a
miss, and instead turn up at street protests.  Uh... shouldn't she be telling
other kids to spend more time at school studying the effects of climate
change, and ways to reverse it?

Gotta give credit where it's due.

Using a young girl as a mouth piece/figure head for an organisation is a master stroke.
Any critique of the message can be dismissed as attacking or being triggered by a young girl.

It’s next level cruelty IMO. No childhood should be forever marked by manipulation and emotional blackmail.

Don't you love how Protestant door knockers use their children to front up at your door for some 'emotional blackmail'.
