2023-04-28 at 4:41 PM UTC‘Endless record heat’ in Asia as highest April temperatures recorded
As climate change continues to accelerate, the tropical regions most vulnerable to higher temperatures and potential wet bulb temperatures are becoming less and less able to withstand the new normal. If record temperatures continue to be set in the coming years, as all trends indicate, it is only a matter of time before millions die and refugees begin making desperate attempts to reach regions still habitable.

these high temperatures are caused by slash and burning on an industrail scale for oil palm trees. thousands of acres of rain forest are being bulldozed flat and burned off to make way for palm trees,
all because everybody wants cheap nutella and cheap peanut butters.
its all you;re fault. -

2023-04-30 at 3:06 PM UTCAn Ominous Heating Event Is Unfolding in the Oceans
Warming in the Atlantic may be contributing to the extreme heat that’s hitting Spain right now, and it shows the broader problem caused by high ocean temperatures: What happens in the sea doesn’t stay in the sea. The oceans have absorbed something like 90 percent of the excess heat humans have put into the atmosphere, but the oceans are also capable of handing that heat back to the atmosphere, which in turn heats the land. “Both the atmosphere and oceans are becoming warmer and warmer,” says Boyin Huang, a physical scientist and oceanographer at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. “If the atmosphere pushes the ocean, then the ocean will push back into the atmosphere.”
The ocean has been acting as a heat sink all these years and softening the global warming. Oceans have already absorbed 90% of the excess heat. Since the specific heat of water is high, it takes a long time to both heat up and cool down. -
2023-04-30 at 3:32 PM UTCThe temperature within an ocean varies significantly. There's no physical or technological method available to determine the mean temperature of the ocean, because there's no way to take all the temperatures involved. When they say, "the ocean is this many degrees", they're lying.

please specify, in BTU, how many excess heat is that. -
2023-04-30 at 3:56 PM UTCThe IPCC has estimated that the world's oceans have absorbed around 20 zettajoules (ZJ) of heat from human-caused climate change between 1971 and 2018. This is equivalent to around 5 x 10^24 BTU (British Thermal Units).
To put this number into perspective, according to the US Energy Information Administration, global primary energy consumption in 2019 was around 595 exajoules (EJ), or approximately 1.4 x 10^20 BTU. Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed by the oceans from human-caused climate change over the past few decades is a very significant amount, equivalent to around 36 years of global energy consumption at current rates.
It's important to note, however, that the impact of this heat absorption on the world's climate and ecosystems is complex and far-reaching, and cannot be fully captured by a single number. -

what does "estimate" means. -

Yet you believe the weed you smoke is actually 30% THC every time they tell you it is. -
2023-04-30 at 4:01 PM UTCWhile there is some uncertainty in these estimates, the overall conclusion that the oceans have absorbed a significant amount of heat from human-caused climate change is supported by a large body of evidence. The use of multiple lines of evidence, including observational data and computer models, helps to increase the accuracy and confidence in these estimates.

estimated to be significant.
yes ? -
2023-04-30 at 4:08 PM UTCThose who claim that this estimation is not significant or accurate may be misinformed or may be intentionally spreading misinformation. It is important to rely on scientifically valid and peer-reviewed sources of information when evaluating claims related to climate change. The IPCC, which is the leading international body on climate change science, has concluded that the oceans have absorbed a significant amount of heat from human-caused climate change, and this conclusion is supported by a vast body of scientific evidence.

who are these "peers" that you spoke of. -
2023-04-30 at 4:10 PM UTCAll they have to go on is models. And whatever you put into the model is what you get out of the model. Very clever. They did the same thing with the fake pandemic. They used models, instead of real data, that way they could create the bogus models the way the money and the politics saw fit, and then declare it established science. No autopsies, no testing, no real measurements, just programmable models. That's not science, that's pseudoscience.
