Just a lot of the people who use them to guess into the future it seems. Just like the ones who projected COVID 19 .Computers - ya - you mean that thing that you used to type your response with and connect to the WWW with? Ya - useless aren't they?
All of these dramatic environmental and biological changes we are collectively experiencing are real-life experiences - not simulations - unless we are all inside a computer animation ourselves. In which case - ya the simulation is faulty - esp in the denier camp.
As shown by these facts, there is nothing new. Just politics.
Environment and Climate Change Canada - Weather and Meteorology - Top Weather Events of the 20th Century
Rogers Pass Avalanche - March 5, 1910. Sixty-two train men and labourers perished 2 km west of Rogers Pass, BC, when their engine was hit by an avalanche and hurtled 500 metres into Bear Creek. Over 600 volunteers used pick axes and shovels to dig through 10 m of snow in the search for survivors.www.ec.gc.ca
Well as almost of the articles shown are about weather not global warming. So as shown by the facts not some guesses the weather in Canada has been like this many times over the years.Listing weather events when the discussion is about global climate change is rather silly, one might think.
Of course, one might think that using THIS site as a source on another of your posts is also silly, very silly.

Sad.
Take care.
So, rather than accept the facts shown that the weather in Canada is just being normal, you defer to try and win your point.Well one HAS TO deny all the many thousands of peer-reviewed articles and 10s of thousands of researchers and people living with the realities of climate change, Dave H - because of this one blogger. I mean the blog is called "No Tricks" after all - right? Gotta trust something called that Orwellian name, and the guy who blogs over all the copious available climate science and real-life experiences:

Please show us where you got this information.Thanks WMY for putting in the effort and sharing data. I think for me - the message I received some years back wrt global warming/climate change is that the extremely large additions of extra thermal energy from the effects of additional CO2 over time - eventually changes or increases the severity/intensity and the frequency of abnormal or extreme weather events (which operate over a shorter time frame).
That doesn't mean that extreme weather has never happened in the past or in Earth's past. But in that history EVERY SINGLE TIME the CO2 levels went up - so did the Earth's temperatures - and at NO POINT during at least the past 800,000 years have atmospheric CO2 levels been as high as they are now (400ppm plus). In addition, the five periods in earth is history with the highest levels of extinctions were all associated with climate change. Higher temperatures were linked to four of the mass extinctions in the last 525 million to 65 million years ago.

Only an extremely irresponsible or naïve person would ignore these scientifically-validated facts - or perhaps a very corrupt person.
That's where we are headed and why people following this stuff wanted a cap on emissions. And we are seeing the effects already. For the past 18 million years there has been more or less continuous presence of either an ice sheet or ice sheets covering significant parts of Greenland - and it's melting quicker and quicker. That's not a computer simulation. That's simply our reality.

So even if all the science were wrong (which it isn't) - we only have a finite amount of hydrocarbon reserves. We will run out of easily-accessible reserves sometime in the near future. And then what? once again: and then what? What's the argument against slowing down that eventuality? What's the argument against increasing our alternative energy portfolio?
There are no logical arguments; just greed, short-sightedness and irresponsibility.
And we loose salmon in the Southern parts of their ranges, we destroy forests and villages in fires, and we cost society way more by spending valuable time arguing against decreasing fossil fuel emissions and against beginning to change our infrastructure to cope.
All because the PR firms employed by the Koch Industries managed to prey on the greed and/or lack of science literacy of their supporters to generate doubt and thereby keep the high levels of sales of hydrocarbons & coal rewarding their shareholders while they are still alive - and screw the future of our kids and their kids. They can pay those costs. Quite the cartel.
Can do OBD - all scientifically verifiable. Which parts (specifically) did you need references for - and thanks for asking - that's great by the way. Glad you are interested in checking things out for yourself. That's the whole intent of the science process verses the denier blogs.Please show us where you got this information.
Let’s start with the graphs.Can do OBD - all scientifically verifiable. Which parts (specifically) did you need references for - and thanks for asking - that's great by the way.

Good stuff, accept the alternative is much worse. The earth has warmed and cooled many times. Man did not control that,however the Sun had a huge effect. We could stop damming rivers and help fish..In agreement that nuclear power needs to be part of that alternative energy portfolio (along w wind, solar, tidal and run of the river) investments - despite the complaints & resistance from some of the ENGOs. I don't think it is the answer to ALL of my (or anyone else's) concerns tho - but a part of that answer. Not every place is the best for each different energy source - obviously. Some places are more suitable than others for the production of energy and the site selection for different energy sources when mitigating against negative effects. And some energy sources are also more stable than others wrt energy output. That's the attraction for using nuclear along with other energy sources - it can come on stronger when wind or solar outputs decrease. An energy grid & input/output controls are critical to mixing energy sources. Lots of jobs available in all of these sectors, as well.

Spatial and temporal distribution of mass loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet since AD 1900 - Nature
Aerial imagery from the 1980s is used to calculate ice mass loss around the entire Greenland Ice Sheet from 1900 to the present; during the twentieth century the Greenland Ice Sheet contributed at least 25.0 ± 9.4 millimetres of global-mean sea level rise.www.nature.com
