We call it Climate Ouroboros.

The models are tuned quite literally to create today's weather from yesterday's inputs.

This is how they calibrate them.

And then the 'climate scientists' turn around, run today's weather through them and - voila! - warming!
"Proved" by models.

If these models didn't show warming, you would throw them out as broken models and look for another.

The early IPCC reports didn't even regard water vapor and clouds as - essentially - too complicated to model.

This paper from 2024: https://www.mdpi.com/2673-7418...
"...Nikolov and Zeller conclude that the observed decrease of planetary albedo, together with variations of solar output or TSI (total solar irradiance), account for 100% of the global warming trend as well as 83% of the interannual variability in global surface air temperature....Shaviv found that total solar forcing of the earthâ(TM)s climate, which includes indirect effects, is 5 to 7 times larger than that associated with direct solar warming. Such a large amplification factor would imply that the climate is much more sensitive to the sun than to CO2"

It's absolutely a DRAIN on the economy, as expected?

Right. "actively"
And the torrent of prosecutions happened when?

Before you proudly point out that Maxwell was arrested during Biden, I'd point out that Epstein finally saw a jail cell under Trump.

...I have been told for months by /. posters insisting that the US Supreme Court was Trump's lapdog, simply doing his bidding?

I look forward to the rationalizations about why the Supremes would flip on a MAJOR Trump initiative. To score points? Kavanaugh distracted by running rape gangs? Just to try to shut DEI SCJ KBJ up for a moment?

By that you mean the one that's actually releasing documents?

Don't get me wrong: this took way too fucking long, the 'censoring' part was necessary to try to protect victims but took too long AND was done completely incompetently.

And ultimately, I'm pissed because nobody's IN FUCKING JAIL. (Ghislane or her body-double excepted.)

So yeah, lots and lots wrong with the process but let's not let our TDS prevent remembering that Biden *also* had all these documents but he was uninterested in releasing them at all.

By that logic, the EPA should be confiscating lakes, and imposing limits on how much everyone has to drink (but cannot exceed) every day.

Hell, in your worldview maybe making people drink water but not too much DOES fall in the responsibility of govt.

Semantic nonsense.
By that definition water could be a pollutant. Oxygen could be a pollutant. Humans certainly are a pollutant.

The 'harmful effects' are speculated, not actual. Warming? 7x-10x more people die from cold weather than heat. Net warming of the planet will SAVE lives.

The mandate of the EPA and the 1970 clean air act have nothing to do with climate change and CO2 isn't a pollutant. They never did and it never was.

That the Left feels anyone is buying this little exercise in bureaucratic land-grabbing is funny; that they insist a 2007 Supreme Court ruling proves it so simultaneously claiming that the same Supreme Court ruling it otherwise today would just be a conservative court playing politics makes it hilarious.
Well, nobody ever accused the left of excessive self-awareness.

Since the 1970s, the left has relied heavily on courts to advance their agenda they couldn't pass democratically (you know, because everyone's dumber than they are). That this court is undoing that vast overreach isn't politics, it's housecleaning.

So pretend it's a genuine question instead of trying to be clever?

If 90% of the span of a system's resting state is MUCH warmer, but it has been slowly cooling over time, how theoretically will a small increase in that system's warmth suddenly "set off uncontrollable warming"?

Let's walk through an example:
I have a beaker of water at 140F. T=seconds.
If I let it cool/warm as follows:
T= 0 140
T= 50 40
T= 100 120
T= 150 0
T= 200 -40
T= 250 110
T= 300 60
T= 350 50
T= 400 80
T= 450 140
T= 494 40
T= 499 -20
T= 500 0
I'd love to understand how when T=500.001 if it goes to +10 that will somehow set off uncontrollable cascade of warming?

ELI5, professor.

Yes, this is essentially the path of earth's climate the last 500m years.

I would rather not run into the back wall of my garage.

1) I drive in
2) I MUST step on brake to stop driving forward.
3) engine stops
4) I put in park
5) car stops
6) I press the ignition button to kill the engine
7) engine stops

I invite you to explain how I can enter my garage and kill my engine without touching the brake.

... There are hundreds of Balkan clothing stores that need more stocks.

This is a lie.
Covered in their FAQ (https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/car-reliability-owner-satisfaction/consumer-reports-car-reliability-faq-a1099917197/)

"They use a weighted system that prioritizes issues based on severity, safety, and potential to cause a vehicle to be taken out of service."

I have a friend who is a big Rivian advocate and will talk your ear off about how awesome the brand is while admitting that his actual vehicle is an unreliable piece of shit.

I ... didn't know how important penile oxygenation was until you mentioned, and it appears to be so.

I will certainly be showing my wife this important research.

....so when I get home, I drive into the garage, come to a stop, car kills.
So I press the button to turn the car off 1 sec later, it restarts ... so it can then shut off.

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT.

Here's an idea: let me, as a consumer, decide if that "energy savings" is worth my hard earned $0.000266 ?

I don't even think people would mind much if it was installed by default. It's the "automatically on whenever you start the car" that's bullshit.

But...ecomarxists know better than the rest of us.

Quick question:
I apologize for questioning a fundamental tenet of the eschatology, but if the majority (something around 90%) of earth's history has been SUBSTANTIALLY warmer than today, how will slight warming now "suddenly turn into a runaway process" ?

Routinely, over the last 5m years, about every 140k or so there have been rather sudden warming increases, with a general decline thereafter. Where did that mechanism go?
