Personally, I wonder why MORE members of the Villages Weather Club are NOT commenting and giving THEIR opinions on THIS forum? There must be OTHER points of view. Just to throw out suggestions.......IMO a weather club might work with an agriculture club to grow trees from seeds and have as a club activity, the planting of small trees around the local area. This would be a good response to the excess CO2 in the atmosphere. They could advocate for electric-powered cars, boats, motorcycles, bicycles, golf carts, and lawnmowers here locally. They could advocate for locally-grown farm produce instead of produce TRUCKED in from long distances..........thus adding to the excess CO2. The US is the 2nd LARGEST polluting country on the planet so we are in a unique position to DO something about pollution (excess CO2). Pollution is a 1st world PROBLEM, so a Weather Club could be part of the SOLUTION. The large polluting countries are MAKING the WEATHER of the FUTURE. A weather club could advocate against WARS which waste energy and cause excess pollution (CO2) production. A Weather Club could advocate FOR the prevention of old-growth forest destruction in the US and the Amazon Rain Forest. Weather is NOT just a LOCAL phenomenon, it is part of a large CHAIN of GLOBAL considerations |

Yes, I agree. And I would like to hear from other members of the Weather Club to find out as a matter of transparency what the other members think. If the Weather Club is trying to recruit new members from The Village Forum, it would be nice to hear the philosophies of multiple members.

Scientists have determined a correlation between the recorded temperatures all around the world (NOT just ONE city) and the increased CO2 in the world since 1900. The whole-earth temperatures ate increasing just like the CO2 increase BECAUSE they are CORRELATED. The proof is that glaciers are melting. Polar ice is melting. Reef coral are DYING. Animal species are going extinct at a RECORD pace. Economic migrants are moving northward into BOTH the US and Europe. And Scientific prediction is for INCREASED heat and hurricane STRENGTH for the next 30 years. And one more thought.....it is easy enough to find a link or one expert to disagree with the GENERAL scientific CONSENSUS. And WHY ...........because the gas and coal industries in the US have a vested ECONOMIC interest in maintaining the STATUS QUO. They sell DIRTY energy! Therefore, they RESIST clean energy. There IS the "follow the money" situation. I wonder if that is discussed at the local WEATHER CLUB ????? |

Here is an article that the Weather Club SHOULD (?) be interested in........Newsbreak......"Devastating floods in Nigeria were 80 times more likely because of climate crisis". In the article, there are direct quotes from world renowned SCIENTISTS about global HEATING. The subject of this thread.

All told, ExxonMobil has spent more than $37 million on climate science denier organizations from 1998 through 2019, more than any individual funder besides Charles Koch and his brother, the late David Koch, the billionaire owners of the coal, oil and gas conglomerate Koch Industries. |
