hot girl summer all year!
Well I guess Erik the Red's going to be vindicated eventually. >

Greenland was warmer when he settled there. The Vikings were able to farm crops that simply cannot be grown there anymore like wheat.
It has to do with ocean currents more than anything else. The world's climate now is technically warmer overall. >

The problem is, there’s only so much individuals can currently do. It’s like trying to limit your exposure to PFAS. Because of corporate policy, they’re in our food and water now. >

And all rain water, world wide, is now unsafe for consumption because it has been contaminated by PFAS. >

Are you saying we have finally made up something that will limit human population...? >

And all I am reading are governments making coal mines >

This is what climatologists have warned about for decades. 
We are fucked. Hell, it's 75°F here in Texas in JANUARY. 
Weather systems are going to only get worse. Food productions will have to be shifted like they have never been. >

We're not fucked.  Humans have and always will adapt.  Stop being so negative.
incoming reddit rage in 5, 4, 3,........ >

Humanity has never faced a threat like this.  And we’re squandering the time we have to fix it, and have been for the past 40 years at least.  There’s no reason to believe that will change.
We’re fucked. >

If you need me I’ll be the guy not stressing over there on my boat crushin walleye. >

So humanity isn't fucked because you have a boat? >

No I just don’t stress.   We’ll be fine. >

Ignorance is bliss, I guess.  You have no idea what's coming apparently. >

I love how it eats you up inside that I don’t gaf. >

Naw, I'm just amazed at how short sighted you are.  Really incredible, actually. >

Make Greenland green again >

... and the rest of the world under water. >

Well, the most inhabited areas, at least. >

good, we can have sea finally >

Kevin Costner will be happy. >

Maybe if we thought a little less about manufacturing weapons or the latest consumerist fad, could take a step back and focus on making our lives more sustainable. Egotistical human nature becomes unsustainable at scale. >

The problem is, there’s only so much individuals can currently do. It’s like trying to limit your exposure to PFAS. Because of corporate policy, they’re in our food and water now. They’re in packaging we still use. Why? Because a small group of hyper wealthy people genuinely do not care if we live or die. We need to make sustainable choices easier and more accessible, but that’s hard to do with our current ruling class. >

Of course. The way life is set up, you have little choice among what is set up, and most people for understandable reasons take the practical route - they have a family to feed and other concerns. That being said, people can start from small things - like not littering, everyone can start from making the community they live in a better place, but even that is sometimes not attainable aside from very socially cooperative Swiss communities perhaps. >

The biggest thing we all do is drive cars.  We don't actually need cars, or at least we need them for a lot less than we use them for. >

We are f’ed! >

Meanwhile, the one being arrested is Greta Thunberg, not the fossil fuel executives who caused this disaster by misleading the world into thinking climate change isn't real while knowing it is real as well as bribing politicians to prevent climate change prevention policies. >

Yeah that was hilarious.  Pigs in their natural environment. >

things are picking up pace. >

mhm.. Perhaps those scientists who made climate simulations showing there is a possibility for a runaway effect were right.. >

Trump's gonna try and buy it again >

I swear he gave away the whole game when he said that.  Greenland is gonna be a very valuable piece of land soon. >

But is the stock market okay? >

Of course it is. Green technology is the trendy business nowadays. >

I hope every last stinking human gets fried. >

Not sure if there are any humans seeing that (most likely not), but every single organism on this planet will eventually got fried... >

This is how The Last of Us starts lol >

But there's no human caused climate change, right?  /s >

The estimate given by the researchers in the linked article for the melting of the ice causing that level of sea level rise is by 2100 to 2150, not 30 years.  From the article:
"The researchers in the study said they couldn’t estimate the timing of the committed melting, yet in the last sentence they mention, “within this century,” without supporting it, Stearns said.
Colgan responded that the team doesn’t know how long it will take for all the doomed ice to melt, but making an educated guess, it would probably be by the end of this century or at least by 2150." >

The main issue isn't sea level rise in the short term. It is that the oceans are also soaking up energy/heat. Events like storm surges are going to become more regular. 
This article notes:  

"As already found in a predecessor study, what used to be a once-in-500-y flood in preindustrial times has already become a once-in-25-y flood in the modern era, thanks to past local sea-level rise".

The oscillating jet stream has caused record cold in Siberia >

Between launching satellites and weapons detonations the weather has powerful forces effecting it. >

Care to elaborate >

I notice rain after fireworks. The explosion instantly vaporizes the humidity...rushing to higher altitudes. Rains afterwards every single time.
Relatively the current explosions of war are radicalling altering the natural weather patterns. The water vapor goes higher...the quantity is greater...and originates at co ordinates that normally wouldn't generate weather of significance.
Same with massive expenditures of blazing fuel during satellite launches. There have been an uptick in numbers. Those rockets are burning at high altitudes. 
These  man made "weather events"  reenter  local atmospheres at unpredictable co ordinates...possibly nudging our steady weather patterns we were familiar with. >

It's a very interesting anecdotal story.  I've never seen rain after fireworks and I've seen a lot of fireworks. >

The rain isn't immediate yet guaranteed the following day. Maybe your area the rain is rushed along by winds or is bone dry to begin with. >

No pun intended. I hate to rain on your parade, however this is not what happens when you light off fireworks. It absolutely does not cause rain to happen. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news >

Where I live there is rain the day after fireworks without fail. >

I couldn't find any studies on Google watcha got? >

My scientific observations are clear enough for my own hypotheses. No one else found it noteworthy...It's possible I'm not wrong. We know heat vaporizes H20 etc. You don't find my orienting statement feasible. Do you find the whole notion of war effecting weather patterns flimsy science too? >

Maybe it will actually become green. >

Will Greenland even exist 1000 years from now? >

It will just be a bit smaller. >

That's interesting.  How do you know? >

Will climate change end human civilization as we know it? >

We'll live. Not all of us will have a pleasant time doing so though >

Not sure if there has ever been a time when it has been pleasant time for everybody...? >

Haha that's certainly true >

There was another article that said Siberia is colder than it's been in 20 years. Seems similar to an ElNino/LaNina trend to me. >

Here in Iceland too. December was the coldest December in my area for 105 years.
November was record breaking hot, December record breaking cold and in the next 24 hours we will experience a 20°c (68°f) heat swing. Strange weather all around. >

I'm asking honestly here. Who was taking the temp of Greenland in 1023ad? >

I’m not an expert and definitely not an enthusiast in this science, so I probably miss something here. 
In Arctic regions (and similar) we can quite easily find out the composition of the air (thus by extension get inf. about the environment) by extracting and examining piece of ice that was created in that particular period. You mostly take for that purpose cylinders of ice that are meters long.
If I am not wrong, then we even estimated Roman industry based on the carbon content in material which dropped in their time period. >

Ahh okay. Thanks for answering.
