Re: Geoengineering

It's a long list mate, which makes me think that somewhere between 66.6% and 80% of the population might be totally brainwashed!

Well, there’s you and Heath. Who are the others?

Oh well, what have we got to lose? Let's just do it anyway!

Just caught up with that Daily Mail piece.

Assuming it is accurate (maybe a big assumption) what are the reasons for objecting to, or mocking, experiments to find ways of reducing global warming? The consequences of continued inadequate action will be immense. Testing out option seems sensible to me.

Re: Geoengineering

watched this earlier always been a hot topic whatever your view point

What's the weather like where you are?

It's grey and murky here but at least in the UK they've given up any pretence that they are not engineering our weather.

Legacy media came out in lockstep this week to tell us the UK Govt is funding geoengineering experiments.

Why do tin foilers have such trouble differentiating between climate and weather?

Any solution is sensible if a problem exists.

You don't think man made climate change is happening?

Re: Geoengineering

I get you TBG but the story here is that a British rag is trying to pass off 22 deg as a heatwave horror, you and everyone else knows how ridiculous this is.

It's the same with a number of rags. They sensationalise and distort in order in order to sell copy. It's nothing new.
A London bus found on the moon and Freddie Star devouring a hamster spring to mind.

more specifically, there have been a number of similar headlines over the last year or two that have ended up getting large numbers of hits, as typically an American on social media will come across this and post it with a caption like

"your average brit wouldn't survive 10 minutes in Texas mid summer" or something along those lines, which will be followed by a bunch of British accounts arguing back - hey presto; easy engagement farming for the social media account and thousands more views of the article meaning more advertising revenue.

Indeed. There's money to be made in posting crap online and waiting for the responses to come rolling in, whether it be regarding poor bricklaying, politics, culture wars or 'How many of these 20 things have you done?' The respondents don't seem to realise that they have been had.

“Despite media speculation, next week’s conditions are likely to fall just outside of official Met Office heatwave thresholds. However, this shouldn’t lead to any disappointment as many can anticipate a very fine spell of weather with temperatures reaching 27°C during the middle of the week.”

Who to believe? The Met Office or the Mirror? Tough one boys.

Most problems benefit from elegant solutions don't they? It's a general rule of the universe

No i dont, just for clarity, however i do feel that we might!! be going through a cyclic climate period change, it wouldn't be the 1st time would it?

I'm still on the fence, but I have noticed that all the believers are Davos devotees, while the majority of world leaders who aren't too keen on torching their own countries are ignoring it. Make of it what you will.

So man made climate change isn’t happening but man made anti climate change is happening?
