Re: Oh dear, indeed... Archived Message Posted by Willem on February 29, 2020, 5:07 pm, in reply to "Oh dear..." she is some kind of polymath with the ability to get to grips with perplexing scientific data that perplexes and sets disparate wings of the 'science community' at loggerheads with one and other. It's pretty simple: CO2 emissions are going through the roof https://theconversation.com/the-three-minute-story-of-800-000-years-of-climate-change-with-a-sting-in-the-tail-73368 they explain: "The speed at which CO₂ is rising has no comparison in the recorded past. The fastest natural shifts out of ice ages saw CO₂ levels increase by around 35 parts per million (ppm) in 1,000 years. It might be hard to believe, but humans have emitted the equivalent amount in just the last 17 years." Furthermore, there is a strong concensus that the climate is warming up. The uncertainty is mainly by how much exactly and how quickly. The MSM ought to be making this message loud and clear -- something Greta is trying to get them to do. Note how they're happy to report on her protest movement but rarely on the crucial scientific findings. A bit like discussing Wikileaks but not the substance of the leaks.
