Ever notice that 3rd world countries have all been ruled by GB or some of their European cohorts??

'They' still have to come up with something that is better than 'limited chaos'. Those places are the way they are because the green countries exploit them, especially Africa. At the risk of the wildlife it could go through a phase of development that would rival that of North America in terms of length and degree of change involved. It isn't like the money isn't already in existence but perhaps what is needed some global event that causes it to take that path at an accelerated rate.

As far as the stability of the land in the Mid-East all the water ways are rifts that are still expanding. The Dead Sea is a sink-hole and will eventually join the Med Sea and the other rifts. Nobody will care by the time that happens.

Think of Hurricane Harvey as being the norm. Think also of the loss of coastal regions like the Fraser Delta and the entire US southeast coast. Then there are the annoying little climate incidents like last year's wet autumn on the prairies, this year's summer drought in Saskatchewan, and the monsoon that ruined the planting season in Ontario. Perhaps you might actually consider thinking before you make your next post.

A hurricane which has been described on the news a dozen times as being the worst in U.S. can hardly be construed as being THE NORM!

.

Yes because a million years of human history gets all wiped out by a few railways.
Third world countries are third world countries because of the third world people that inhabit them.
And can you point me to the time when GB ruled all of China, not just Hong Kong ?

And then remind yourself that ALL first world countries were ruled by GB or allied to GB at some point.

That is because it stopped over a major city. Was there a high coming down from Canada because next week is +30 so that is a hp zone that goes south a long ways.

While man is probably not the cause of it, I'd say he's definitely contributing to it.



Exactly. There is no way that the scale of human activity has no impact on climate. Not to say that ALL climate change is a result of human activity, but the amount of change humans have caused to the landscape, the oceans, and the atmosphere means there HAS to be some impact.


These idiots who think it's all or nothing are complete morons.

What is especially misleading in this thread is the title itself.

Here Are The Countries Most Likely To Survive Climate Change



this statement requires that a massive assumption is made relative to the expected destructiveness of global warming... The experts have yet to affect a single accurate model or forecast, yet they are able to look into their crystal ball and predict an even more complex future.


Good for a laugh I guess, but little more

Boomer seems to be pretty good at massive assumptions; or at least, making a massive ass of himself. :)

Gotta love how they cant make a decent track for a hurricane, but oh we have the temperature data for the
last 500 years all marked out, and it's all perfect, and we can solve it just by sending more tax money.

Have you ever noticed that the worst fanatics to a religion are the new "converts"

They used to call themselves "reborn".....I call them "retreads" as in ....

I think that name is quite appropriate for the latest convert in this forum ....non???

I would be perfectly happy with it, thanks. We should ban all that traffic right now to get emissions down.


They get hurricanes in Vancouver now ?

OMG stop the presses, let the panic commence.

SEND MORE TAX MONIES RIGHT AWAY !!!

Your usual stupid answer. You are engaging in this forum due to tech that was probably manufactured in Asia. And are you going to give up drinking coffee, tea, and orange juice? And I said nothing about hurricanes in Vancouver. As usual you read your own prejudices into the post. Check out the Fraser delta and the region of Vancouver built on it. Most of it is just a few meters above sea level. Even a slight rise is going to cause problems.

Right - but as usual you miss the point. Storms like Harvey were once considered once-in-a-century events. They are now occurring at ten times that rate. That is the new norm. Harvey is classified as the worst only because it is the most costly. But before that it was Kartrina, and before that Sandy, and so on.

Here is a list of pre-Harvey hurricanes. Note that they have all occurred in the last couple of decades.

Good, most of the shithole countries will get wiped out, I say bring on Climate Change!!
Dummy, the ones in the first list, and you, will have to move to those places and kill the locals if you want to survive. Think you are up to the task?

Yeah, I believe in climate change, it happened when the ice started melting during the last ice age. I just don't believe man is the cause of it, after all, man was not around during the melting of the last ice age.

"The Pleistocene Epoch is typically defined as the time period that began about 2.6 million years ago and lasted until about 11,700 years ago. The most recent Ice Age occurred then, as glaciers covered huge parts of the planet Earth."

You do not have to believe in any climatologist's opinion.
Rather simply you just have to believe that C02 in the atmosphere traps in more heat. Thats it.

Even knowing that volcanic eruptions releases particles that reduces the suns input of heat, doesn't mean the carbon we are putting in the atmosphere doesnt trap the heat. After a few years when the effect of the volcano has subsided we are still left with this carbon trapping heat in our atmosphere.

Even if you believe that the Earth is going through a cycle that is causing warming from since the last ice age. Putting extra carbon in the atmosphere does not help in regards to this effect. It only increases it.
