TailingsPond + 1,008 GE March 18 (edited) Hahah Look at Coe's website! https://daviology38.github.io/autumnfrost/ Connection to Climate Change Many studies have been done looking at changes in the timing of seasons, *Cooter and Leduc 1995 and *Easterling 2002 both found that the average first frost date was coming later in the year(0.5 days per decade), while the last frost date is coming earlier in the year (1.3 days per decade). This suggests that summer is getting longer on both ends, moreso in the spring season. Our recent study on the *Autumn Season in the Northeast U.S. found that weather patterns related to summer are occurring later into the autumn season, while weather patterns related to winter aren’t occurring as often early in the season. This is to say that due to summer lengthening, the typical onset of weather we associate with autumn is delayed, and cooler weather is less likely to occur in September and October than before. The above map shows the past 5 years of temperatures for September and October plotted for some of the climate sites around Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont. We see that over the past 5-years, these sites have been seeing their first frost date (first day with a minimum temperature at or below 32°) towards the middle of October for sites further north, and towards early November for sites further south. This is a change of almost 2 weeks compared to the expected median timing of first frost for these regions! Expect these changes to be the new climate normal as we keep going forward.

footeab@yahoo.com + 2,190 March 18 Temp Trend is directly linear for going on 100 years... Before CO2 increase went assymptotic and nowhere close to linear, and in fact did not really start to get going until late 20th century in 1980's... and yet, temp trend is linear ALL the models show otherwise and are clearly blatantly wrong and nowhere close to reality. Trend was linear BEFORE CO2 giant increase, and during giant CO2 increase ANYONE with a brain can figure out --> Its not CO2 genius.

Ecocharger + 1,474 DL March 19 The end of the failed transition is now in sight. The oil majors are abandoning the artificial and foolishly designed "targets" for CO2 reduction, apparently aware that those targets are without any meaning and not related to meaningful climate effects. https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/Big-Oil-Chases-High-Fossil-Fuel-Returns-amid-Poor-Renewable-Showing.html "The oil and gas industry has stressed that affordability and energy security are at least as equally important as helping the world reduce carbon emissions. Big Oil relies on windfall profits to raise returns to shareholders in an attempt to lure them back after years of ESG-driven reluctance to invest in fossil fuel companies. After their U.S. peers, now European majors such as BP and Shell have been hitting the brakes on throwing their cash on clean energy." "ExxonMobil’s chairman and CEO, Darren Woods, said in November that “The solutions to climate change have been too focused on reducing supply. That’s a recipe for human hardship and a poorer world.” In remarks at the APEC CEO Summit, Woods noted that the final element critical to long-term success is market-based mechanisms, as “No government can afford to subsidize the energy transition forever.”" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There needs to be a better case for climate change related to CO2. In order to make the enormous sacrifices in human well-being which are being asked of the general populations, especially of the middle class and poorer classes, there must be a more robust climate science supporting the CO2 hypothesis of climate change. So far, the models constructed claiming to support this view have been shown to be inadequate and incomplete, and have not included relevant variables in their specification. Until then, there is no sense of public urgency to make any transition. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
