    Climate Change / Global Warming Discussion

    The Climate Change issue has no political color so I refrain to say anything having political meaning, and I always refer to the Science. This attitude of Governor DeSantis to deny the Science of the GHE and AGW is a serious lack of respect for people of Florida who have been hit by the recent...

    Climate Change / Global Warming Discussion

    Actually I gave a better look to the reported graph in the quoted post and I noticed that in June 2024 the Temperature Deviation line (Brown Line) went under the June 2023 Temperature Deviation (Yellow Line) for some days. And we have the coincidence that some days ago El Niño was replaced by...

    We are only halfway in June 2024, but this will likely be the 13th record hot month in a row. In fact in the reported graph the line of the June 2024 Temperature Deviation (Brown line) is almost always above the line of the June 2023 Temperature Deviation (Yellow line). But I disagree with Leon...

    We have FIRST SOURCE SAYING THAT EL NIÑO IS OVER! Now, in the following months, we will see if the 0.2°C Anomaly of the Global Temperature Deviation will stabilize or not. For the time being heatwaves in India and Pakistan are continuing.

    Since emissions of Aereosols and their precursor are reducing, the ALBEDO of Clouds is reducing and the Earth Energy Imbalance IS INCREASING. So the effects of AGW (Anthropogenic Global Warming) are WORSENING! Actually we were experiencing GEOENGINEERING without knowing it. The ESA EarthCARE...

    Wish to point out 2 positive things that Dr. Kate Calvin, NASA’s Chief Scientist and Senior Climate Advisor, says in the quoted video. 1) This trend of each month being a record warmest month doesn't have necessarily to continue and we can have months, and also years, with a Global Temperature...

    WELL SAID AGAIN! And we need to work out the Climate Change issue soon. If in August--September, when La Niña (cool flip-side of El Niño) will kick in, the 0.2°C Anomaly of the Global Temperature Deviation will not stabilize, we will be, as Dr. Gavin Schmidt Director of NASA GISS said, IN...

    In the reported graph the brown line is the REAL Atmospheric CO2 line which is compared with the red straight line. So it can be seen that the increase of CO2 concentration in the atmosphere is NOT LINEAR. A linear increase in atmospheric CO₂ concentrations would have been "bad enough". (NOAA...

    This warehouse in the Netherlands has 13,000 solar panels. It makes four times the energy it uses. This is the way to go to lower your Carbon Footprint.

    Sorry but I don't manage to understand your point. Of course I say what I think and how things should be according to me. The purpose is to keep the Global Temperature Deviation under the threshold of 1.5°C set by the Agreement of Paris. Hope that at least you will appreciate my Good Faith...

    Of course I agree with you David, but you are raising a more general matter.

    We knew that May 2024 has been 12th warmest record month in a row. But we didn't know about the Feedback Loop which established between the Climate Change issue and El Niño which is making El Niño stronger and continuing. This post is WORRISOME. PLEASE don't look it up.

    Sorry but I disagree again. I am beating on that drum because it's SO difficult to face the Climate Change issue as a purely scientific problem. I don't care about ideology.

    Prediction: Coal has fallen. Nuclear is next then Oil.

    Sorry but I disagree. The Climate Change issue is a Scientific issue and has to be handled without any political purpose. Also former Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry always pointed out the need to face the Climate Crisis has a purely Scientific issue.

    Agree. Electromagnetic waves power decreases inversely to the square of distance as it is stated by the Poynting Vector. So if you want to be safe use headphones and you will be ok. P.S.
