Once upon a time, the national news shows never included weather reports. Weather was left to the local news. Nowadays, national news spends more time covering weather and its aftermath than anything else.
How DARE my Weather Man talk about Global Warming!!!

Emily in 2005 reached Cat 5 status just one week later in July than Beryl did. Oddly it took nearly the same path too.
Parts of Cali and Nevada just hit all time temp records.
Probably just a coincident, you know Big Science and all the money there directing the narrative. The poor broke oil companies just have no way to fight back and obviously have no financial ability or incentive to lie to easily swayed morons.

Press like lawyers have become ambulance chasers. Back in the day the national press had 1 hour of news per day to cover. now it is 24/7 filling air time with every piece of garbage it can.
I used to watch the NBC nightly news and meet the press. Stopped doing that about two years ago. Both are miserable experiences that would have you believe this country is on the eve of destruction. Look what the news does to produce unstable individuals/twats like Adolf Shooky. It’s just not worth it. Turn it all off.

Damn dude, your obsession with him is getting to the "no longer funny but kinda concerning levels"
The guy not only lives rent free in your head, but you should be paying him royalties to live there at this point.
What are you, his lawyer?
Fun fact: I don’t care.
And says the guy who can’t get @UCFKnight85 ‘s name outta his mouth.
How fūcking dumb do you have to be in order to deny man made global warming in 2024?
It wasn't that long ago that national news coverage of weather was nonexistent except for the occasional hurricane hits landfall events.
Nowadays, the news shows' weather people get more airtime than their WH correspondents.
Monday was the hottest day ever measured by humans, beating a record set the day before, as countries across the globe continue to feel the heat, according to the European climate change service.
Provisional satellite data published by Copernicus early Wednesday showed that Monday broke Sunday's mark by 0.1 degree Fahrenheit.
Climate scientists say the world is now as warm as it was 125,000 years ago because of human-caused climate change. While scientists can't be certain that Monday was the hottest day throughout that period, average temperatures haven't been this high since long before humans developed agriculture.
The temperature rise in recent decades is in line with what climate scientists projected would happen if humans kept burning fossil fuels at an increasing rate.

Well-said, Ucfmikes. Maybe it's because I have a brother who is a climate scientist, but this issue has always felt like a 'no-brainer' to me. It's going to take a monumental effort to begin turning this situation around, but we humans have shown we're capable to miraculous things (i.e. sending a man to the moon with less computing power than a cellphone) once we set our minds to it.
The hardest part is rallying 'Team World' to fight it.
This kills me as well. We have a real world example of it on this board with our resident high school drop out and pool cleaner @goodknightfl thinking his opinion on this matter should be given the same weight as literal PhDs armed with supercomputers.
The part that really kills me is the "government funded scientist conspiracy" to talk about climate change. Yes, all that government funding compared to the literal trillions of dollars made by oil companies. Where is the bigger financial incentive for misinformation?
tl;dr: republicans are fuking stupid.
All time is aprox 200 years.(usually less)
Swayed morons know there were temps before we kept records, and much/most were warmer than today. Some of us actually know mans golden bronz iron ect ages came during the warm periods. Man does very badly during the cold ones.
Overall, Earth was about 2.45 degrees Fahrenheit (or about 1.36 degrees Celsius) warmer in 2023 than in the late 19th-century (1850-1900) preindustrial average.

One must remember that the late 1800s were the end of the little ice age.
Ahahahahahaha holy shit here he is. Imagine being a pool cleaner with a GED and trying to correct PhDs on a subject!
You keep citing this and it's probably because you think "Oh, it's just a couple of degrees--no big deal." But that's not how science works.
A 2 degree Celsius (3.6 degree Fahrenheit) rise in global temperatures above pre-industrial levels is considered a critical threshold that could lead to dangerous and cascading effects of climate change. This warming would shift the distribution of daily temperatures to higher temperatures, making extreme temperatures more common. For example, at 1.5 degrees of warming, there would be up to 19 extra days of extreme heat per year on average, while at 2 degrees of warming, there would be around 29 additional days.
In the simpleton world of pool cleaner science it makes perfect sense
If the temperature of your pool goes up a couple of degrees, it’s no big deal. If it turns to ice 🧊 or starts boiling, then you start to worry
brainlets don't understand that the effect of rising temperatures isn't linear. an increase from 1.8 to 2.7 is not nearly as drastic as 2.7 to 3.6
regardless, screeching about the weather while telling people to ignore what they see culturally and financially on a day-to-day basis is never going to be taken seriously. climate change has been bundled into the same political package as every other far-left bible passage, and is being treated as such by serious adults.

Nailed it.
Already experiencing it too, with Gulf of Mexico hitting never before seen temps resulting in insanely fast hurricane strengthening.
1/2 the country wants some global warming right now. 9.5 inches of snow in parts of nw Florida. old record was 4.5 inches
I knew you were a simpleton pool cleaner! Know we know! ahahahahahahahahah LOL, That's such a fkn stupid statement
You don't even understand what global warning is, Like most retarded MAGATS. What a fkn joker
I know global warming means record breaking or tying lows and record snowfall. Just like it can be shown by every single bad hurricane, drought, flood, or high temp record .
We also know scientist today can figure out just what is the best average temperature for the Earth and life on it.

Is this an insult? Get a clue. You voted for dementia and then a low iq hoe. Luckily americans elected a real man for pres. once you finish at the gloryhole you will see our country getting better
The question still is Is man the main cause, and if that answer is yes, can we really do anything to stop it, or even slow it down a bit. We won't/can't stop China and others from building new coal plants as fast as they can build them, and we can't reduce enough, fast enough to offset what they are doing. Even if we manage by some miracle to slow the progress by 3 or 4 years, we really didn't make a difference.
So, where do you put most of your money and effort? delaying the inevitable or preparing to deal with it. I think you have to do both, but be realistic you are not going to stop it. Almost 97% (not my number) of greenhouse gasses are natural, so even if we could reduce human gas by 1/3, we would be talking about 1% change. the 1/3 number won't ever happen worldwide, and even if we could it doesn't change the problem. If the damage is bad enough, we kill 3/4 of mankind that might fix it.
I hear people here complain, I don't see them putting forward real fixes. Modern cars are lightyears cleaner and more efficient than 40 years ago, heating, cooling, and lighting our homes use far less power than even 20 years ago, modern electric plants in US are much cleaner than the near past, not to say nothing of wind, water, and solar power, and yet none of that has been enough to put a dent in the problem.
So, to the brainiacs on the board, explain what we as Americans can really do to slow the spread. We know how well scientist answers on Covid worked. In our household, we retired 3 years ago, we drive 75% less than we did and our 2 vehicles are more efficient, We went from incandescent bulbs to squiggly to LED's, our air conditioners use 1/2 the power they did 30 years ago. We gave up a 30 ft motorhome for light weight travel trailer towed by a Frontier, that improved gas mileage on the road by 1/3. It seems to me we have done a pretty good job, and yet have not made a dent. So again, put down practical fixes than can make enough of a difference to bend the curve in a meaningful way.
