global dimming and warming

[Christophe]

yeah it's not very clear these comments from a European expert on climate!

Well, I find that very clear: as we cannot avoid the inevitable, LET'S TRY to limit the breakage as much as possible ... but that's not really what is currently done with petro-fuels for example ...

[Ramboman]

Let's say "globally", with globalization
And then, we will no longer be there and our children will have emigrated to Canada or elsewhere

[Christophe]

Your various provocations are not welcome ...

[Ramboman]

Let’s introduce censorship then ...

This thing is crazy

We are really going to be in a mess in a few years: /

Exact, that is pretty scary.

I had already seen the program when it came on, but I couldn't help but watch a second time to be sure I heard correctly.

These 3 parts of reporting are important to understand the issues ...
Well, the European Commission is going to move ...

By then, the temperature will have increased by 5 ° ...

The problem is not the average temperature (we are only told about this, in this documentary as in others), the problem is the temperature peaks. A temperature spike of a few hours beyond 40 ° C causes havoc in agriculture and we are absolutely not protected against it.

The next solar cycle will break all records:

Photo of my thermometer taken in August 2003. There is no cheating, the outside temperature (probe in the shade) greatly exceeded 40 ° and that of the inside 35 ° C. The animals died by millions in my region.

The year 2008 is situated in a hollow of the solar activity.

+ 1 talk of average T ° is complete and quite deceptive pipo because:

a) some regions are warming much faster than the average T ° (+ 2 ° C in the Arctic)

(b) some regions will, on the contrary and on average, cool down. Example: more cloud cover due to increased evaporation of the oceans ...


Then, I always wondered how the "average" temperature was calculated of the planet before the satellites given that 70% of the globe = ocean and that I doubt that beacons have been installed every X km to cross the oceans ...
