  • ah, some actual data, thanks! still, it looks like an average variance of 1 degree celsius over 2000+ years.

    let’s be honest though - nothing is going to change in the next ~50 years or so, not enough to stop the slight raise in temperature. no one is willing to go back to living like medieval peasants prior to the industrial revolution. no one politician is going to enact any laws that will return society to that state. no coalition or governmental body is going to do it either. not in America, not in China, not in India, not in Europe.

    we would need most of northern africa and all of central australia covered by solar panels, wind turbines everywhere, and probably actual fusion reactors generating power in order to markably decrease global temperatures.










  • i skimmed through the article, seemed like really poor journalism (worse than usual for huffpost).

    the “relationship” - a stretch at best - is like claiming that shootings in Chicago and Baltimore are related because the perpetrators were both black - that happens all the time but no one ever tries to link the two, as they’re clearly two separate crimes that are basically unrelated. same thing here. just trash tier journalism
