Comment Re:We should expect fewer droughts from warming (Score 1) 222

The point is: we don't know if they where or not.
The fact that the romans did cultivate wine in brittany, UK not france (like we do since a few years, or even a decade again) tells us nothing about floodings anywhere else on the globe.
It tells us nothing about dimishing glaciers (as those periods where rather short) nor tell they us anything about the amount of sea level rising, as at that time not enough arctic ice melted.
Also: quite a time ago someone linked reports from China at that time, IIRC they reported about droughts and famines.

Unfortunately you did not read the links you posted otherwise you would have noticed that my comment about el nino/el nina.

Your links about tornados are irrelevant, as the destruction they made during the period where you claim their frequency was the lowest: was the highest ever recorded.

Ntw: we talked anout hurricanes. Bringing in Cyclones and Taifunes make sit only even more complicated for our parent :)

And it seems for you, too.

A storm brewing somewhere does not know how warm or cold it is at the pole.

And the pole temperature is irrelevant. Relevant is the difference in temperature between lower atmosphere and upper atmosphere. The warmer the water/air the faster it is rising upward, the stronger the storm is yielded from that.

Actually a no brainer if people had the simplest of education. I don't get it, I learned that 40 years ago in school, 5th or 6th class or something.

The way how storms form has not changed the recent 100 or 200 years.

Hurricanes are created alone by water temperature.

So more hot water (or the hotter the water) the more hurricanes.

No idea what you mean with "driven" ... you want to tell us they drive further north if the temperature difference between poles and equator is higher?

Interesting ... but not relevant. (And likely wrong anyway)

Yeah, a novice tells us why "theories" are wrong.

Hurricanes happen in the northern hemisphere, usually golf of Mexico and north of it.

If you want to talk about storms in the US and around you should focus on Tornados anyway.

So, why do I complain? Because you bring in El Nina and El Nino "years" or "phenomena" ... which are phenomena limited to the southern hemisphere like Peru, Chile, Brazil, Argentina and the south Atlantic ... they have absolutely no influence on hurricanes or the weather in the US.

It does not matter WHY someone wants to use a barely floating boat and travels over the mediterranean sea and "invades" Spain, Italy, Greece or ex. Jugoslavia.

They simply come and are not welcome, so from migration they sooner or later switch to invasion.

Regardless of that, doubling the population or tripple and quadruple it in europe would cause trouble. Currently we don't produce enough food for such a "migration".

My point was: you already have a fence at your south border ... so will other nations build up fences.

Hence the people who try to migrate will end up in concentration camps.

none of the dire predictions has materialized.
The predictions are that in FUTURE we have trouble. OFC they have not materialized that. What is your STUPID point?
You had several opportunities to offer the requested counter-examples, but failed. Neither did I fail nor had I the chance. WE are at 2014 right now, not at 2050. IDIOT!

Pffttt .. why don't you simply look at a map of Canadian population distribution?

And why don't you simply check the border to Mexico? When the huge migrations due to global warming start there will be borders like that all over the world.

No matter what: "welcome people of all backgrounds, colors, peaceful religions, and means." ... you might think so, I might think so, but neither do the politicians nor the general population.

The taxes are for finding solutions.

No one is sitting around and finding solutions for nothing. You find a solution because you figure it is cheaper than paying the tax.

The rest of your post is simply idiotic unscientific phantasy, or science fiction.

We as well could have cold fusion and hot fusion tomorrow. That is as likely as finding an economic industrial scale process to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.

But instead, it's about restricting growth in first world nations while forcing investments into third world nations, it's about power and control of the populous
Growth is not restricted.CO2 production is.
That s a no brainer ... no idea why you believe it is super easy to remove CO2 (at some point in the future, when it is probably to late) from the atmosphere but it is not possible to have an economy that uses less energy. Hint: Europe already is showcasing it. It is possible, and it is rather simple.
