Given all the conspiracy theories that have been shown to be true, and all the "facts" that have been shown to be false, not only in the past few years, but throughout history, I have to wonder just who is gullible, those who question what the experts push off on us, or those who blindly accept what they say and will never accept the fact they may be wrong? Just look at past threads here, assuming they haven't been deleted or edited without notice to the poster.
And yes, I know where the admin of this forum stands.
I think that your supposition
Given all the conspiracy theories that have been shown to be true, and all the "facts" that have been shown to be false
is actually more accurate by the inverse
Given all the conspiracy theories that have been shown to be false, and all the "facts" that have been shown to be true
Fact: CO2 levels are much higher than 20 years ago (Mauna Loa continuous measurements).
Fact: CO2 (and methane) cause heat retention in the atmosphere, leading to higher temperatures than expected without the higher CO2
Fact: Arctic sea ice and mountain glaciers are mostly receding.
All the above are direct observations and you can 'do your own research'.
Result: warmer temperatures increase evaporation with resulting increase in atmospheric water vapor
Result: increased water vapor in the atmosphere results in precipitation events with increased volumes/rates.
That is 'Climate Change' and it is observable around the world.
There are many theories about why it is happening, but the likely (but maybe not only) cause is the increased burning of formerly sequestered carbon-base fuels.
That is how the admin of the forum stands.
Regarding deleting/editing thread/posts, I do that very sparingly -- mostly to remove obvious spam posts or terminate ad hominem attacks on other members. I will lock threads when it varies wildly off topic or the bickering becomes unproductive and uninformative to the original topic.
