Compare the graphs of world population and world temperatures.

We can't "reverse" the cycle. At the absolute best, we can slow it down a bit so the next planetary shift doesn't wipe us out in 50,000, but instead maybe in 55,000 years. If we had started during the Age of Agriculture and been better stewards of the planet, maybe we could've prevented the CURRENT situation from being as extreme, and as frequent, and for as long a period per series of events. But we couldn't have stopped it.

Planets are born to die. It's simply what they do. It can take millions of years but eventually they conk out. Our planet is no different. It is in the process of dying. It won't happen in the next 10,000 years. But we will see new "tricks" of nature that we might not have seen before.

The melting of glaciers in Antarctica could uncover a lot of volcanoes in about 50 years.

When it comes to climate change many will say do nothing and let nature takes it course. For those who truly believe we should not try to harness our own destiny and leave everything to nature, imagine yourself living in a cave, wearing animal skins for clothing and having to forage for food every day. Thanks for early human that were NOT satisfied with what nature dealt them.

Agree! Our weakness is that in trying to improve our lot, we didn’t know enough to see far enough ahead where we could forsee the problems we created along the way. Now we know the mistakes that were made, but some don't want to acknowledge humanities responsibilities. They, like a hit and run driver, are afraid of having to take the blame.

These are just a few that took only a couple of minutes to find. There are many more examples but based on your unserious and disrespectful response, it is obvious that in any dialogue with you, logic, reason and facts would be of no use.

To those who might care, I repost what I found last year. It was as accurate as is reasonable for layman dialog. With the increase in population and other human related activities, I expect the 2024 data to be slightly greater than that of 2023.

"AI Overview
According to current data, the Earth's temperature rose by approximately 2.12 deg F above the 20th century average in 2023, making it the warmest year on record, with the majority of this warming attributed to human-caused CO2 emissions; however, pinpointing the exact amount of warming directly caused by man-made CO2 in a single year is complex and depends on various factors, including the overall increase of all greenhouse gases and the Earth's natural climate variability."

People have been repeatedly misled into believing the 2023/24 global warming spike is the work of CO2, but that's totally false. The heat spike is due to the Hunga Tonga volcano -- which is explained in detail at the Weather Club.

AI = Artificial Ignorance. The 2023/24 warming spike is Tonga-caused -- not CO2 or Methane.

Wait and see.
Meanwhile, the AI Overview is just that, an overview of all scientific data. It does not stand alone as the expert. It is simply an overview of all pertinent data provided by scientific journals, factors, papers, reports, etc. You know, stuff the real experts put out, as in data, facts and figures. You dismis it because it doesn't tell a story you like. That's fine. Don't believe it, don't accept it. The truth doesn't change whether we believe it or not.

Oh Tonga, Tonga, Tonga - form a Tonga line. As I stated last Spring ( before 2 climate change enhanced hurricanes damaged Florida) Climate Scientists at first thought that Tonga would warm the Earth. Later they came to the conclusion that it had little or no effect. Plus it is now 3 years in our rear view mirror. No climate scientists care about it anymore - they decided NOT to beat a dead Tonga horse.
.........Plus 2024 was the warmest on the planet. And there is no "spike". It is a gradual warming trend which increased greatly in the last 10 years. The heating is GRADUAL (as in no spike) and the result of excess CO2 forming a layer in the upper atmosphere and reflecting (refracting) some of the suns heat BACK to the Earth. Automobiles exhaust and burning coal by the increased world human population of the last 10 or 15 years PRODUCES CO2 so MASSIVE that the world's oceans can no longer absorb it all. So it drifts up into the upper atmosphere and forms a heat reflective layer - that was not present 15 or 20 years ago. Also,the excess CO2 in the ocean has killed coral reefs.

People should look at a graph of temperature increase worldwide for the last 10 or 15 years. There is no SPIKE. Just a gradual increase as world population and therefore CO2 has increased.

I believe that I would bet on A. I. when it comes to the role that CO2 plays in Global Warming.

And look how many people just had to jump in and add to the post stirring with the same old tired arguments...

I think you meant to say "scientists of the most well funded institutions who will lose their funding if they dare stray from the party line"...

Common sense...
