We can all see climate is not changing or warming. We don't need lectures in a long-running fear campaign from the United Nations, a front for socialism & globalism. This politically charged scam is a bid to reset the world economy by punishing, blaming & degrading the west. ..... #ClimateScam -- 97% of people are aware of this. "Running history of 30+ years detailing the climate scam we are all witnessing first hand. WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING? Available for download soon" **** "Nuclear power will be used is an asumption that may not materialize. Selling nuclear plants to the general public after the Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima accidents may end up to be a pipe dream. Each nuclear power plant takes about 20 years from the beginning of planning to actually providing power. The Fukushima accident was the meltdown of three reactors but also the partial meltdown of these reactors fuel storage pools which held a substantial number of full fuel loads, each. Japan is quietly polluting the Pacific Ocean with extremely massive amounts of radioactive compounds. Building any new reactors in Europe, with the exception of France, and the US is a very, very steep uphill battle that most likely will not materialize. I was in the power industry for almost 15 years and do not believe nuclear power will come back to the US and most of Europe in the near future anywhere near the numbers needed to replace fossil fuels. Two new reactors at Vogtle are being built that are many billions of dollars over budget and many years behind schedule. This is a common problem in building any reactor in the US. They eventually may become just another pipe dream. The US and France and others may be designing new types of safe reactors but these will have to overcome the NIMBY problem which is huge in Europe and the US due to the Fukushima accident. This belief that nuclear power and other technologies may be able to be used is not a verifiable approach currently, in my opinion. This is why his calculations are so important in the amounts and times of productions. Your post also, does not consider that human caused global warming could also be a hoax which is slowly coming to more light by new technologies being used in more and more scientific studies which clearly show CO2 does not drive global warming. Dr Willie Soon and Judith Curry are some of the key scientists, and many many others, pushing the scientific info that human caused global warming is a hoax. This info has been discussed by many on this board in detail. I became interested in human caused global warming in 2000 and worked at a location that had very high speed fiber optic internet capabilities in 2000. This way I could search and read articles that countered Michael Mann's hockey stick study which used 'tree rings' during my lunch time. When thinking that humans cause global warming one has to be aware that 96 to 98% of the heat load on the earth's atmosphere comes from the sun. This """HUGE""" variable was not considered in Michael Mann's hockey stick study. Milankovitch cycles were also not considered which are three separate orbit cycles of the earth around the sun. These factors should be an outline of areas you can read in the future to see what is currently happening in the human caused global warming universe.

Yesterday Was America’s Snowiest Nov 16 On Record; “Extraordinary” And “Paralyzing” Lake Effect Snow Set To Pound The Northeast; Energy Crisis Update; + Siberia Plunges To -47.8C (-54F) Yesterday Was America’s Snowiest Nov 16 On RecordA record for snow extent in the contiguous U.S. was broken yesterday (Wed, Nov 16). *The dataset only* extends back 2-decades, but still, in that time the United States has never logged a snowier November 16.** The National Snow Analysis from the National Operational Hydrologic Remote Sensing Center shows that a whopping 41.1% of the CONUS had snow on the ground Wednesday morning, besting the previous record of 37% set in 2014. For reference, the average Nov 16 snow extent for the 20-year period is 14.8% (which includes the 41.1% this year). Looking at this official dataset –and discarding AGW Party delusions of ever-increasing temperatures = ever-decreasing snow– snowfall extent has been increasing over the past 20 years: For the first 10 years (that’s 2003-2012), the United State’s average snow extent on Nov 16 was 12.2%, but for the last 10 years (that’s 2013-2022) the average has climbed to 16.3%. Facts don’t lie; but they do hurt agendas. *“Extraordinary” And “Paralyzing” Lake Effect Snow Set To Pound The NortheastYet more snow is on course to bury portions of the North American continent starting today, Thursday.* Western New York, for example, which gets more snow than almost any other corner of the U.S., is about to get pummeled by a winter storm “that is extraordinary — even by the region’s own standards,” reports bloomberg.com. Cold air sweeping across Lake Erie and Lake Ontario is forecast to drop 3 feet of snow near Buffalo, with some isolated spots expecting more that 4 feet — from late Wednesday to Sunday, reads a recent NSW warning. Such staggering totals would surpass the current three-day record in Buffalo — the 3.2 feet set during the November of 2000.; while snow records in Lansing (2.0? set in 1955); Charlotte (3.0? from 2014) and Jackson (1.1? set in 1989) are just another three on course to be “absolutely crushed,” according to fox47news.com. “This will be the start of a prolonged lake-effect snow event which will likely include paralyzing snowfall for the Buffalo and Watertown areas late this week through the weekend,” the NWS office in Buffalo wrote Wednesday. But Buffalo isn’t alone, of course; the entire Great Lakes will experience record-challenging snow in the next few days. The NWS has warned that travel could be “near-impossible” starting Thursday, and insists that drivers should pack a flashlight, food and water in their vehicles in case they get stranded. The snow is also expected to topple power lines, leading to outages. Widespread road closures are also a given, snarling transportation across the Northeast. And looking further ahead, even larger accumulations are forecast next weekend: GFS Total Snowfall (inches) Nov 17 – Dec 3 [ tropicaltidbits.com]. Western and Central regions won’t be spared this continent-wide invasion of early-season polar cold. Low temperature records and historic snowfall benchmarks are already being felled there, too — with much more to come, threatening to disrupt Thanksgiving (Nov 24), and beyond: GFS 2m Temperature Anomalies (C) Nov 16 – Nov 21 [ tropicaltidbits.com]. electroverse.co
