He's a total hack that picked two random days that supported his world view then claimed victory. If 12/26/24 is warmer in your town than 12/26/23 was, what would that "prove"?
You'll first have to get him to admit that glaciers actually exist. If he hasn't seen something in person, like dinosaurs, they don't exist.
It's usually best to wait until the planet is completely destroyed (for human use) before you do anything to save it. Besides, we can always change our lifestyles and live like cockroaches.
It's not one day. One day's weather doesn't make sea ice move that much. It's more pointing out that the whole "ice caps are melting at high rates" is complete BS. If you can't see that, then I'm not sure there is much to discuss.
You're ridiculous. Yes it's one day. Read, man. 12/24/79 v 12/24/24. It's right there. These are the data points you posted.
LOL. Ok, so in Dec of 1979 Sea Ice in Antarctica was around 17% less than it is in December 2024. That's doesn't in any way sound like the "sea ice is melting at astronomical rates" crowd has been saying for decades. If you want to be ignorant and think that's bad, that's a you problem.
Exactly. It's not like taking a random temperature because sea ice doesn't fluctuate daily like that at all. That poster is just upset that their preconceived ideas of sea ice melting aren't true.
Of course not. But antarctic ice famously fluctuates. A lot. It increased for a couple decades since '79 (1% per decade), then dropped a lot. Then increased a little .. you get the idea. No matter the issue, two data points don't make a trend. Particularly coming from a known hack
LOL. So the answer to showing sea ice has increased 17% from Dec 79 until Dec 24 is to say "famously fluctuates"? Wow.
Yup. Famously fluctuates. Now just grab two data points and make some wild claim in X and watch the people lap it up. Like you did.
Sea ice extent is especially variable and it varies a lot by year and location. If we're comparing 1979 to 2024, the average global temperature has been about 2 degrees fahrenheit warmer in 2024 than it was in 1979. That's a big difference.
Yes. I see how easy it is to draw false assumptions by cherry picking two data points to fit your desired outcome.
Whatever helps you sleep at night. But be careful. If you sleep less tonight than last night - that means you'll eventually stop sleeping altogether
You think the right-wingers are strung out on cocaine, and that's making them deny global warming? Coca - Wikipedia I did read that cocoa farms are being damaged by GW, so chocolate is becoming more expensive. Cocoa bean - Wikipedia
