LOL!

When you drive in your car, can you tell how many microns of distance is between the rod bearing and the crankshaft?

You don't need to know do you? In fact, maybe 1 out of a 100,000 folks know the calcs for their car, if that.

Common sense tells you the car is working so you drive. Every 5k miles to change the oil.

40,000,000 people are ignoring 5,000 years of recorded history on fires, earthquakes, erosion and climate in California alone.

See these cliffs? I first surfed there in 1964. They were just building these apts and then those were well back form the bluffs then. However, every winter the high tides would come, big surf would come, heavy rains would come and huge slabs of the cliff faces would fall off the cliff face and across the sand. By the time i left the area in 1983 the cliffs had eroded substantially. We could already see that what we thought would one day happen was much closer to happening. One day the cliffs would be gone and the apts would soon follow.

That is some mystical climate change. It's coastal erosion. I was majoring in geography at UCSB. Coastal erosion was well defined as a science by the late 60's and sand slows coupled with run off from rivers entering the pacific is about a close to settled science as you can get even back then.

Fun fact. The sea level rise is nonexistent from 1964 till today at the surf spots I spent nearly 20 years surfing at back then.

These dingbats claiming these cliffs are falling due to climate change need a strong dose of common sense.









complete surprise!
