But it is not fair to just pick on a teenager like Greta who is totally uneducated.
Consider this statement from the UN dutifully reported by the AP in 1989


A senior UN  official says entire NATIONS could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels
if the Global Warming Trend is not reversed by 2000.


Tell me, OILCAN ( or whatever your name is these days)
What nations have we lost?

The trend has not been reversed. The levels are still rising. It could top out at 70 meters in my neck of the woods if we keep pushing our luck.

Ceasing to add to the input does not immediately halt the process or the promulgation of the effects of the process.

The hits we are just beginning to take will be bigger than they would have been had we heeded Greta or better still the unnamed person from the UN.

Fac nails it.  The GW trend was not reversed by 2000 and, as predicted, places like Maldives  Seychelles, Lousiana, Indonesia, Solomon Islands, Palau, et al are losing land.  The current measures of polar ice loss are actually showing an acceleration of melt that's MORE than was predicted.  Scientific estimates have tended to be conservative in their extrapolation.  Many climate effects are nonlinear, if your math is up to understanding that.  Ice and permafrost melt cause positive feedback mechanisms to  kick in, so that the coming years will see acceleration rather than linear increases.  Educate yourself, starting with an open mind, instead of hurling insults and expecting others to do the learning and thinking for you.  I am well and truly done here trying to explain how atmospheric sciences operate.

Mrs bambu just ate some canned soup.
"Amy's Kitchen" brand.
Nice soup.
Made in USA.
Trade.
Long way for a can of soup to travel.

Too much sodium in canned soup.

Once in a while is ok.
Gotta eat something.

I eat a lot of soup.Low sodium broth or bouillon with whole wheat pasta and frozen veggies. Healthier and more cost efficient.

Add a little chicken and you have bargain basement chicken noodle soup.

Bambu, it is wonderful that you are getting Canned Soup from America in Australia, and we have a lot of other good stuff that we can send you. For instance, for dinner tonight I am having Chili-Mac, it is cold and raining here and Chili-Mac is nice and hot and it is a good meal when it is cold outside.

For my Chili-Mac I am having the Stagg Chili which is canned chili from Pleasanton, California, mixed with canned Diced Tomatoes from Pleasanton, California, and I am going to add that to Anthony's Rotini Pasta from Oak Brook, Illinois.

And now the Canneries are running on Solar Power, etc, and the cans are being recycled. Soon the trucks will all be electric, and the ships will all have solar power, etc. We can use hydro power to power the electric railroads, etc. We can make it more affordable and cleaner to feed the planet.

And be sure to try the Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli which also comes in a can, it is good food. I think he started in Ohio, and he fed the soldiers, etc.

That is great that we can send canned soup all the way to Australia, that is cool, and we have lots of other great stuff to put on the ships to go to Australia.

Salute,

Tony V.

Though the Trump images may be amusing, this trend is generally not a good one where AI is concerned.

Will we train students in school how to determine if images are authenticated, and have reliable systems for societies to do proper certification of photojournalism?

News Item


On Thursday, 10 of the 16  5th District US Court Justices ruled there is no constitutional basis for requiring federal employees to be vaccinated.

Another Constitutional slap in the face of our clueless President.

A similar vaccine mandate for private sector businesses with at least 100 employees was blocked by the Supreme Court in January 2022.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Thursday evening.

Could someone sit down and explain how the Constitution works to this guy.?

After all he swore on a bible to defend it, not ignore it.
