      Has the climate change hypothesis ever made a verified prediction? Seems like literally nothing they have ever predicted has come true. Ozone layer didn't disappear, sea levels didn't rise, nobody is dead. According to Al Gore we should've all been underwater by now. Yet now they expect us to believe the next round of bullcrap predictions because it's "the latest science"

        They have predicted it gets warmer with more CO2 and it got warmer. They have predicted the sea levels would rise and they are rising. They have predicted the glaciers would melt and they are melting.
        >Ozone layer didn't disappear
        Not climate
        >sea levels didn't rise
        Yes they did and are still rising
        >nobody is dead
        No one can attribute single events to climate change, but people are dying in record heat every year. People die in floods. Again, can't say without doubt that something wouldn't have happened, but last year, people drowned in Germany in an event that will become more likely thanks to climate change.
        >According to Al Gore we should've all been underwater by now.
        He never said that
        >Yet now they expect us to believe the next round of bullcrap predictions because it's "the latest science"
        Well if you blatantly deny facts and make up your own, who cares what you think? You'll make up your own world anyway.

          Shit, I can predict a cake will get sweeter if I add more sugar. But there's a difference between chemistry and cooking and that's the difference between science and art. Climatology is closer to the art of cooking.

            It's true tho. You guys can't nail anything on the head. Like I said, it's just kinda "if we add more of this to the mix, we'll get more that". Like eh, that's an insult to real science.
            Give us numbers that don't make me question if my truck isn't big enough to finally put NYC 20ft under, cause so far it's been fake results after fake results. Did you even predict this recent ozone hole? If so, how far in advance? After it was already inevitable?

            IQfy needs an IQ captcha. In the very least it should be a calculus problem.

            I have a very high IQ, I scored over the max on the WAIS (145 or 147, I forget) taken in a clinical setting.

            I know claiming a high IQ on the internet is cringe and you probably won't believe me anyway, but to be honest I think it's sort of the reason I find an image like this compelling in the first place. I was taught from a young age that I'm smarter than everyone else and I shouldn't listen to them, including teachers, but trust my own reasoning and intuition instead, both explicitly by my father and also by formative experience. Just assuming I'm always right is true frequently enough that it becomes a useful heuristic, but it fails when I'm faced with situations in which I don't know how little I know. Even knowing this doesn't really help me avoid overconfidence in these situations because I can't know which situations they are.

            A lifetime of thinking teachers and bosses are dumber than me, and everyone around me is moronic, has also given me an antagonistic and contrarian personality. I don't just think experts can be wrong, I also want them to be wrong. I want to take positions that are different from what everyone who thinks they're smart thinks, just to prove them wrong. I love to take untenable or unlikely positions and argue them just for the sake of the exercise. And, I hate everyone including myself.

            So go ahead and institute your IQ filter captcha, I would absolutely love it. And I will repost that image afterwards with glee.

            that's only because climate alarmists keep moving the goalposts. now if you inject any doubt, remind them of any history, or criticize any faulty plots, you're de facto low iq moron. it's a shutdown tactic, not an argument. it's more a reflection of the climate alarmists than the climate "deniers". i consider myself a climate realist, not a denier. i show the alarmists how pathetically wrong they are (and how they've been consistently wrong in the past)

            The trend is not really doubtable. Also, you see that the ice is still shrinking, but slower so. The other graph has data until 2005 and fits from 1995, where it starts falling off.. You see that it was steeper than it is today. So, yes, the trend did change. I'm not sure why you have to ask this when the information is literally out there. Just do your own research instead of parroting people :^)

            We shouldn't. Actually, "our" governments (which is actually countless of governments in 4d space throughout decades and across continents) are the ones disregarding scientific consensus for so long that we're steering right at possible turning points. We should listen to the actual experts in the fields. We should listen to the consensus of conferences and meta-analyses. We should ignore homosexuals like this Ehrlich guy who make claims like "by this year, something will happen for sure". We should look claims that are either straight forward like "I did a linear fit and if it continues like this, we will hit zero by that time" or that have the necessary scientific professionalism. Under what assumptions does something happen with what uncertainty? The IPCC releases thousands of pages regularly, explaining, testing and using their models. If the nerds who normally tell you "well if our models of the atmospheric dynamics, the carbon uptake in oceans bla bla bla are correct, then our models predict a span of bla with a confidence interval...." tell you we're fricked, then we are.
            Politicians are not scientists. It's part of their jobs to make statements that are stronger than what is scientifically safe. Trump said we'd be on the moon by a certain year and NASA immediately said that this depends on several things and started explaining under which scenarios, what timeline is realistic. Ignore the people who are always loud and look at the quiet people who recently became loud. That's when you should start to worry.

            This kind of thinking is what caused the pandemic response to be so overblown. More damage was done to people by the lockdowns and regulations than the disease itself because people went way too far in following the experts. These people only know about what's the best thing to do IF your singular goal is dealing with the concern of their field, they don't know how to balance mutually exclusive uses of limited money and don't know anything about the economy, don't know anything about what problems are more important than the ones they spend all their time dealing with, and they don't know anything about morality and human rights. Climatologists would do the equivalent of turning all matter into paperclips if you let them completely dictate policy. Even if their global warming predictions are true this time, I'd rather be free and eat meat and drive a car on a slightly warmer earth then live in a pod and eat the bugs in a slightly cooler earth.

            >1967: ‘Dire famine by 1975.’
            Doesn't mention climate change. Let's look into Paul R. Ehrlich:
            >Paul Ralph Ehrlich (born May 29, 1932) is an American[2] biologist, best known for his warnings about the consequences of population growth and limited resources.
            Not about climate change at all.

            >1969: ‘Everyone will disappear in a cloud of blue steam by 1989.’
            Same guy, still not about climate.

            >1970: Ice age by 2000
            Arguably about climate, but about smog, which we started filtering out of the exhausts. Also, in hindsight, CO2 warming outperforms shielding/cooling by smog. One of the few wrong predictions, but not consensus of any kind. It's one prediction.

            >1970: ‘America subject to water rationing by 1974 and food rationing by 1980.’

            >If sustained over "several years"
            Guess what we didn't do? Keep blowing out smog. But again, I think even with more smog, this would be wrong.

            >1972: New ice age by 2070
            Don't say it's man-made, say that it's a possibility that can't be excluded. By using moron-grammar, the cum eaters make it sound like they were sure about a new ice age by 2070. Not "we cannot exclude a natural new ice age, possibly as early as 2070"

            The title was "50 Years of Failed Eco-pocalyptic Predictions" not "50 years of things that couldn't be excluded at that time".

            If you don't have a smoke alarm, people tell you "if you don't have it, we can't guarantee that you wake up in case of a fire and you might die". If there hasn't been a house fire after 10 years, do you go around like

            you're the moron. it can be more clearly communicated by saying "sea level" and including a foot note that they've defined the sea level at the year 2000 to be 0m. take a lesson from physicists (real scientists): if we plotted the potential energy as a function of height close to the surface of earth, it would be a straight line. U(h) = mgh. we would define something (like the ground) to be our reference point. we certainly wouldn't label the y-axis as "change in potential energy", idiot.

            when we discuss potential energy in physics, we define a reference point where U = 0. then, anywhere else we say the potential energy is some value, mgy. we do NOT say the "change" in potential energy. same type of plot, more clearly communicated because physicists, unlike climatologists, know how to communicate.

            let me make it easier for your pea brain to comprehend. the entire point of defining a reference point of zero is so that you can avoid writing those pesky changes.

    yes, its a multi-discipline one.

    however, those that are against it politically want 100% proof, which is not possible until after it has taken place. and if it is then proven, they will ten switch the argument to something else. they are NOT interested in the science, only attacking the science and scientists for their political ends.

      On the contrary. When polled on the facts regarding climate change, conservatives routinely outperform liberals on knowledge. In fact, regarding science, all conservatives want is for climate activities to make their methods transparent. Statisticians who try to replicate climatologist models are unable to do it, because climatologists guard their secrets. It's why the creator of the hockey stick is being sued and statisticians are being called as witnesses to repudiate the climate alarmists findings

            So no ruling on climate change
            >The total time elapsed, from the filing of the notice of civil claim until the application to dismiss was filed, was eight years. It will be almost ten years by the time the matter goes to trial. There have been two periods, of approximately 35 months in total, where nothing was done. In my view, by any measure, this is an inordinate delay.
            >Additionally, based upon the evidence filed, the plaintiff and his counsel appear to have attended to other matters, both legal matters and professional matters in the case of the plaintiff, rather than give this matter any priority. The plaintiff appears to have been content to simply let this matter languish.
            So, instead of pursuing the libel stuff, Mann did other things, which the judge interprets as "Mann doesn't care enough"
            >the defendant intended to call three witnesses at trial who would have provided evidence going to fair comment and malice. Those witnesses have now died. A fourth witness is no longer able to travel
            lol, in the meantime the witnesses died of old age
            >The parties are both in their eighties and Dr. Ball is in poor health. He has had this action hanging over his head like the sword of Damocles for eight years and he will need to wait until January 2021 before the matter proceeds to trial. That is a ten year delay from the original alleged defamatory statement. Other witnesses are also elderly or in poor health. The memories of all parties and witnesses will have faded by the time the matter goes to trial.
            So, it was dismissed because Ball is an old frick and it just took too long. It never even came to a trial. That's your triumph? That is your proof that climate change is a hoax?

            By the way, the whole thing was just that one geezer said about another geezer that he "belongs in the state pen, not Penn. State". And the judge basically said "Frick off, you smell like piss and all your friends are dead, we won't have a trial on this"

      >and if it is then proven, they will ten switch the argument to something else
      They were distracted with denying covid for 2 years now. Ok, first they were distracted by claiming how dangerous it is because the Chinese have such long queues before a crematorium. Then once it became mainstream to take it seriously, they immediately were downplaying it for a year. After the vaccine came, they started spreading some century-old conspiracy theories like that it makes women infertile. When a rare, but serious adverse effect did pop up, they completely ignored that the governments immediately changed the program so that the risk groups don't get that vaccine anymore (young women and astrazeneca). Like, they are always one step behind and one step ahead at the same time, but inverted by 180°. I think, they are just chaotic stupid.

      The shills get BTFOd so hard they shut down. They use talking points and when clever anons prove it the shills regroup. Tldr it's because the climate alarmist shills have an unwinnable position. They're fixated on "the science" and yet can never define what they mean by "the science". This is because they couldn't give the proper definition of science if their career depended on it.

    As a layperson in this field, I cannot confirm or refute "the data." A chart saying one thing or the other means nothing to me because I don't know anything about where these people are getting measurements or models from. I need to use the accessory evidence that I can understand to determine whether it's likely to be true or not. Here are the facts that I can see:

    >Hypotheses about climate trends aren't based on controlled experiments and aren't falsifiable
    >Scientists have been making alarmist claims about apocalyptic climate trends since the 80s, and nothing bad has happened yet
    >They used to warn about an upcoming ice age but now say the exact opposite, which undermines their credibility significantly
    >Scientists can further their careers by publishing alarmist research that supports the consensus
    >Scientists face backlash for publishing research that contradicts the consensus
    >The peer review model makes it relatively more difficult to publish research that's politically disadvantageous, so there's a snowball effect which would tend to increase the amount of "evidence" for the consensus
    >The same people saying "trust the science" on climate are also people telling me to "trust the science" on trans children and other subjects I don't like

    This makes it very hard for me to take the climate alarmist claims seriously.

      In the same way astrophysics doesn't let you do controlled experiments. And they're obviously falsifiable.

        >Hypotheses about climate trends aren't based on controlled experiments and aren't falsifiable
        They actually are in huge parts, both even. A huge part about climate physics is understanding climate archives. Ice cores, organic material, stalagmites etc. The chemical processes like the solubility of limestone at different temperatures, or isotope fractionation are determined by controlled experiments. The global temperature is something like finding the Higgs boson in petabytes of data. You need all of your data, put in models, make sure there's enough redundancy and cross-checks and only if everything is self-consistent, you calculate a global average temperature. And you see that competing analyses get the same results. Ultimately it is a natural science and not lab science though. There is only one Earth and we cannot repeat these things arbitrarily often. But the same is true for geology, astronomy etc.
        >Scientists have been making alarmist claims about apocalyptic climate trends since the 80s, and nothing bad has happened yet
        "Scientists" is not a homogeneous mass. If one scientist gives crappy newspaper Interviews that doesn't discredit thousands of others who do good work. I think you're making it easy for yourself to just ignore warnings about actual dangers ahead. No one claims to know where the tipping points are. But there's a good chance they lie between 1.5 and 2°. Currently we're on a course to Miss The 2° even. Why are you trying so hard to not see this?
        >They used to warn about an upcoming ice age but now say the exact opposite, which undermines their credibility significantly

            You keep parroting this. Do you think people cannot genuinely talk to you and they are all part of a big conspiracy to deceive you? Do you think, the cia taught me canned answers I should give when cornered? This is a fricking anonymous imageboard, I could tell you to eat a dick and ignore you anytime. Why would I need canned answers?

            Who are you to tell me what flies and what doesn't? I answer your questions honestly and they don't fit into the fragile alternative reality you constructed to escape whatever trauma you may have suffered. Your mind sees my answer as a threat to its psychosis, so it attacks me with all force. I can't be rich. I must be elite. Scientists are evil and lying and stupid and keep contradicting themselves. They all have a political agenda because a scientist cares personally what other people eat or when they cut down the rainforest!
            I honestly don't care what you eat as long as it's not a burden to our planet. I honestly have never seen the rainforest, so personally I don't have any connection to it and you could cut it down for all all I care personally. On a more factual level I know how terrible it is for our planet to cut down and burn natural CO2 reservoirs. But that really doesn't fit into the "scientists = evil" theory. Or do you think that I have an irrational hate against Brazilian woodsmen and want to destroy their jobs?

            using percentages to hide your actual salary. typical. just admit you're wealthy are are trying to tell the poor how to live their lives, while making no sacrifices yourself. that's how climate alarmists like you operate, and it's disgusting.

            you do realize that your language betrays your content, right? you write like a wealthy elite because you are one. stop it with this "i'm one of you! i swear!" bullshit. it's obvious to people who actually are poor, and grew up poor, that you're full of shit with your faux sympathy.

            >the climate shill is insulting people for being a lower economic class than he is
            the mask comes off. why is it always these smug, wealthy elite jackasses who tell people of lower caste than they to change their lives? you're a plague.

    Not really no. It's about as scientific as econometrics. Most of it is fitting arbitrary models to data with very little understanding of what may or may not be going on.

      I wish it was this easy. At first, I thought that the environmental physics lectures would be smooth sailing, but they were actually quite hard. And I wish I could have just said "cars bad, eat bugs", but they asked me about eddies, energy transport, fluid dynamics, Navier-Stokes... and those were just the lectures for physicists, not for people whose sole job is to work on the environment.

        the hell are you two smoking and why should anyone give a frick about the state of our "species"? first of all, humans aren't going to go extinct no matter how extreme climate change gets. the tragedy would be to lose a lot of other beautiful species (which would eventually be replaced by new biodiversity after a period of turbulence). second, who cares if a number in a book says that there are 8 billion strangers you'll never talk to or interact with, or if it says you have 2 billion imaginary "species" friends instead? really?

    I'm pretty sure there was a very brief moment in history where some petroleum company(ies?) did research into climate change and realized how bad CO2 was for the atmosphere and were preparing to invest into green technology, before deciding to just lobby for "climate change fake" instead.
    I wonder what that timeline would have been like.

    • 2 years ago
      Anonymous

      I think this timeline was largely inevitable. If the west gave up on oil, every competing nation would have a distinct advantage. Oil therefore is a matter of national security - indeed, it could be that we can thank spooks for the oil companies' change of heart. Of course, we could have tried flattening these opposing nations, but then we'd be contending with the spectre of nuclear war. Honestly, I'm surprised we haven't formulated a quantitive/predictive theory of psychohistory yet. There's very little freedom for humanity as a whole.

          Green energy only makes sense because all the cheap oil is drying up, sadly. We talk green but nobody really wants to walk it because the EROI is usually inferior.

          Because people like to reflect on the events that lead to the end of something. I as an individual see very clearly that our global civilisation is on the precipice of collapse, and humanity as a whole possibly endangered. My reflection is simply that we were dealt a shitty hand. All power and no wisdom - that this was inevitable. Waxing philosophical like this is futile, sure, but it passes the time and maybe will help in the formulation of some nugget of wisdom that my descendants can use to not suffer the same fate. I mourn the environment, too, but most people alive have grown up in this barren hellscape and don't know any different. For most, it's hard to feel the loss of something you never really had.

          Say that to Venus. Not that it's a likely outcome, but a mere 50mya, Earth was a toasty 14C hotter. Could mammals our size even survive that?

            The worst case scenarios given by the IPCC are sugar-coated to hell and back. Realistically, we're going to see an increase in migrants and political tension as land and resource values shift with the climate. Like every other time in recorded history, this will lead to war (we may be seeing this already). But unlike ancient history, we're covering the whole map - there's no one else to carry the torch if the conflict spirals out of hand. One misstep and the enormous, frighteningly delicate web of trade that we rely on for modern technology collapses, bringing us back a good hundred years or more. Only, we have a society built on capabilities that would no longer exist. Further collapse. And if there's anyone to pick up the pieces, they have to deal with the fact that all the easy to extract resources have been exhausted, the land poisoned, and the weather made potentially severe or desert-like. Not the conditions you want to rebuild. Maybe we'll make our way through, but given that the climate crises was entirely "avoidable", I have low hopes.
