Hurricane Ian & Climate Change Calamity
 
At this month's Weather Club meeting, a post-analysis and video of Hurricane Ian will precede an updated "Climate Change Calamity" presentation. It is this Thursday (Oct 20) at 1:30 PM at the Bridgeport Recreation Center. Important climate studies that are rarely seen in the media will be reviewed. These studies are published in scientific journals -- and yet the public hardly knows about them. One very important study is the $9 million NEEM Project from Greenland, which produced amazing climate change information.

You’re in the wrong group pal. This is The Villages, where an overwhelming majority do not believe in science, let alone climate change.

sounding 10-16-2022 10:28 PM

Ditto. That's why the club exists.

Is there a tooth fairy club??? After all, it would need to exist to gather all the believers in the tooth fairy, including presentations by tooth fairy "experts" and to call everyone else a "tooth fairy de-nye-ah"

Can't help but chuckle (sadly), at how perfectly you've nailed it.

On the flip side, if you're someone who is ruled primarily by a visceral hate of others who are, or think, differently, embrace lying/hypocrisy, love a lot of crazy conspiracies and enjoy personally attacking those who don't - you will probably feel right at home.

BUT, there are a lot of choices for golfing - so it has that going for it.

I will have to check that out. The study I mean.

Amazing how well you nailed it as well.
These are the groups/people that are setting the agenda and driving the direction of our country. Let's just hope the rest of us are able to stop them before they destroy this great country.

Go to the Univ of Copenhagen (Neils Bohr Institute) for details ...or just search for "The NEEM Project" on YouTube. They had big plans for a follow-up project -- but the funds mysteriously never came through.

Darn, can't make it. I have my Chemtrail meeting the same time.

A $9 million project? After watching the video of U.S Air Force planes and personnel involved in the project, I find it difficult to believe that more than that from our tax money wasn't spent on the project. How much did other countries contribute?

You'll have to try the Freedom of Information Act to find that out I guess. I'm afraid it's much like funding for the U.N.

Best be careful lest you self identify as one to be so characterized by those who KNOW

There is a tooth fairy! When I was little and lost a tooth, I would put it under my pillow when I went to bed. The next morning the tooth was gone, and in its place was a shiny new nickel. And that is the proof!
Are we having fun yet?? 😀😀😀

Thanks for the warning, but I’m sure I know the difference between the real science and those with an agenda

Yep, no need to convince me. I believe that Hurricane IAN existed and was evidence that the climate changed for a little while. Are they going to explain how man made the hurricane? If so, count me in. Spoiler alert: Mr. Clean may make an appearance and we know how he is able to change the kitchen climate.

Would that be the same calamity the Al Gore prediction that he made on Dec. 14, 2008, stating that the arctic would be completely ice-free by 2014?

Pretty much. Also similar to the "calamity" of another impending ice age that those same "experts" were predicting in the 1970's. At least back then they weren't proposing the world (and by world, I mean mostly the US) spend over $100 trillion to "combat" it.

sounding 10-17-2022 12:25 PM

Regarding "man made hurricanes" ... if one believes increasing "man-made" CO2 is causing climate change, then must also believe that increasing CO2 is causing hurricanes and tornadoes to decrease in strength and intensity.

JMintzer 10-17-2022 12:26 PM

Oh, look! Another "Climate Change" thread that will change no one's mind about anything...

Just in time, since it's been almost a week since the last one was closed...

You can stretch it twice as far. Just use both sides.

Stop with the climate change
 
If you believe in climate change or not you have to believe in pollution. We create so much trash we're running out of landfills. We've dumped so many chemicals in our water ways we're not sure if it's safe to drink and we pump tons of toxic fumes in our air every year. Doesn't anyone believe in the old saying "Don't s##t where you eat".

I believe that I do understand science, and scientific methods. I have an education and experience to corroborate that. I believe in climate change, but not for the reasons projected by politicians.

I am tired of people categorizing me as being a science denier.

The climate change predictions are based on models. The models can easily be flawed for a variety of reasons. The outcomes can easily be manipulated by the algorithm as well as attributes used in the model. So here are two real world climate related examples. Consider the so called spaghetti charts used to predict paths of hurricanes, that the meteorologist point to, just days or even hours before expected landfall. There are 22 possible paths, with some wildly different. No model gets it right. Next, consider the weather predictions for precipitation. Last summer in Michigan, we had a day with a rain forecast of 0% chance for the next 12 hour period. You guessed it. There was a huge downpour.

I am not disparaging meteorologists. I am just saying that weather prediction is difficult in the very near term. Long term has to be orders of magnitude more difficult.

I learned a long time ago that data can be truncated, extrapolated or interpolated to prove any point you want to prove. This allows corrupt people to get the result that they want.

“Building consensus is a politico-religious concept, not a scientific one. Consensus involves creating broad agreement amongst a group of people, but science should never lean on agreement to provide a false sense of comfort. When forming their worldviews, scientists must emphasize the evidence, not the opinions of their fellow scientists.”

Where and when is the next the next Q club meeting? I have all my HAARP videos ready so we can help educate these poor people…

guitarguy 10-18-2022 06:22 AM

What may be good for the climate can be terrible for the environment. .. wind farms many kill birds. Solar collection farms destroy local habitat.
