Press Release Number: 190420212020 was one of three warmest years on record, despite cooling La Niña
Extreme weather and COVID-19 combined in a double blow
New York/Geneva, 19 April 2021 (WMO) – Extreme weather combined with COVID-19 in a double blow for millions of people in 2020. However, the pandemic-related economic slowdown failed to put a brake on climate change drivers and accelerating impacts, according to a new report compiled by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and an extensive network of partners.
The report on the State of the Global Climate 2020 documents indicators of the climate system, including greenhouse gas concentrations, increasing land and ocean temperatures, sea level rise, melting ice and glacier retreat and extreme weather. It also highlights impacts on socio-economic development, migration and displacement, food security and land and marine ecosystems.
2020 was one of the three warmest years on record, despite a cooling La Niña event. The global average temperature was about 1.2° Celsius above the pre-industrial (1850-1900) level. The six years since 2015 have been the warmest on record. 2011-2020 was the warmest decade on record.
“It has been 28 years since the World Meteorological Organization issued the first state of the climate report in 1993, due to the concerns raised at that time about projected climate change. While understanding of the climate system and computing power have increased since then, the basic message remains the same and we now have 28 more years of data that show significant temperature increases over land and sea as well as other changes like sea level rise, melting of sea ice and glaciers and changes in precipitation patterns. This underscores the robustness of climate science based on the physical laws governing the behaviour of the climate system,” said WMO Secretary-General Prof. Petteri Taalas.
“All key climate indicators and associated impact information provided in this report highlight relentless, continuing climate change, an increasing occurrence and intensification of extreme events, and severe losses and damage, affecting people, societies and economies. The negative trend in climate will continue for the coming decades independent of our success in mitigation. It is therefore important to invest in adaptation. One of the most powerful ways to adapt is to invest in early warning services and weather observing networks. Several less developed countries have major gaps in their observing systems and are lacking state of the art weather, climate and water services.” said Prof. Taalas.
Prof. Taalas joined United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres in launching WMO’s flagship report at a press conference on 19 April. It comes ahead of the 22-23 April virtual Leaders Summit on Climate, convened by the United States of America. President Biden is seeking to galvanize efforts by the major economies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and meet the targets of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change to keep temperature increase to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels by the end of the century, and to 1.5°C if possible.
“This report shows that we have no time to waste. The climate is changing, and the impacts are already too costly for people and the planet. This is the year for action. Countries need to commit to net zero emissions by 2050. They need to submit, well ahead of COP26 in Glasgow, ambitious national climate plans that will collectively cut global emissions by 45 per cent compared to 2010 levels by 2030. And they need to act now to protect people against the disastrous effects of climate change,” said the UN Secretary-General.
In 2020, COVID-19 added a new and unwelcome dimension to weather, climate and water-related hazards, with wide-ranging combined impacts on human health and well-being. Mobility restrictions, economic downturns and disruptions to the agricultural sector exacerbated the effects of extreme weather and climate events along the entire food supply chain, elevating levels of food insecurity and slowing the delivery of humanitarian assistance. The pandemic also disrupted weather observations and complicated disaster risk reduction efforts.
The report illustrates how climate change poses a risk to the achievement of many of the Sustainable Development Goals, through a cascading chain of interrelated events. These can contribute to reinforcing or worsening existing inequalities. In addition, there is the potential for feedback loops which threaten to perpetuate the vicious cycle of climate change.
Information used in this report is sourced from a large number of National Meteorological and Hydrological Services and associated institutions, as well as Regional Climate Centres. UN partners include the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), International Monetary Fund (IMF), Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO (IOC-UNESCO), International Organization for Migration (IOM), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the World Food Programme (WFP) and the World Health Organization.
It updates a provisional version released in December 2020 and is accompanied by a story map on global climate indicators.

This is it? Did anyone experience climate change so severe you now want to volunteer to pay more tax to fix it? Or is the World Meteorological Organisation claim that we are already experiencing an unaffordable expensive climate crisis overblown nonsense?

The only things that “are already too costly for people and the planet” are the solutions and policies for the imaginary crisis they’re trying to foist on us.

Climate alarmists are not known for the ability to engage in critical thinking.
No, they engage in critical thinking. They just limit their critique to anyone who has a different opinion.
The Green blight
Ten megawatts solar array.
In a location that gets less than 4 peak sun hours per day average.
That’s before taking into account that Northfield only gets 192 sunny days per year.
Before considering Northfield’s 52 inches of snow per year and 47 inches of rain per year.
Before considering that their nameplate 10 megawatt solar array’s doesn’t produce at 100% efficiency. In fact, when spotlessly clean, the best solar panels make around 20% efficiency.
That ‘save the family farm’ solar array must have some odd contracts behind it for outrageous electricity rates for it to pay for the array, line conditioners, frequency controllers and connections to the grid.
Appears to have nothing to do with climate change. It’s all about paying for their hops crop and land.
Here in the climate emergency theocracy of Massachusetts- these landowners get massive subsidies and tax breaks and maybe 2-3 thousand dollars per acre per year from the solar company. What little farm land is left in this state is very good farmland and shouldn’t be converted to industrial solar.
Simplest thing to do is deny them the cash they want. They aren’t worth it. And suggest that they get therapy for their desperately needy souls.
How are you going to do that Sara? All the grant-giving institutions are run by true believers. They’ve won and we’ve lost.
It’s so easy to virtue signal with other peoples’ (taxpayers) money.
We’ve lost? Lighten up, Francis! We haven’t lost. They will all look as silly as someone walking barefoot in a blizzard, denying that it’s cold, because eventually, that funding will run out.
They have nothing and they know it, but they keep on pounding that drum and now, more and more people are ignoring them.
And the cost of the salaris of all these dimwits.
This Green energy thing is worse than we thought, thanks to Dr. Patrick Moore who posted this on Twitter: Article by Donn Dears:

Climate change challenges are real… and comes mostly from climate change policies… That’s what will have to adapt to.
This is halting progress. They acknowledge short term cooling parts of cycles in their updated pledge of theocratic allegiance to the Climate Crusades. Resist professional bondage!
So “warmer than the Little Ice Age” is a bad thing?
Hippo’s used to live in the Thames and during LIA it froze often. Somehow a climate between those extremes is catastrophic? Time they stopped and smelled what their shoveling, fundraising BS.
I’m looking out of my window right now, seeing if I can see a climate crisis. Anyone know what a climate crisis looks like? I need to know when to duck.
Wear a hard hat just in case you don’t see it coming.🤪
Hard hats are non-gendered, so every one can wear them … ha ha ha ha ha Ha Ha ha ha ha ha
So are a lot of people, apparently. Funny old world
I think I fell asleep and missed it. Can you stream it on Amazon Prime?
I heard that it’s a grotesque monster being part man, part bear, and part pig. If you see it, run for your life!
Climate is defined as 30 years of weather in a given location. So today’s climate crisis is actually 30 years of accumulated weather crises. These people who claim climate crisis need to document what weather was so bad 30 years ago until today or they have no argument. Unless they think they can predict the future 30 years, which is evidence of mendacity on their part.
“Climate Normals” is a defined term that allows weather from place to place, and time to time to be compared.
Climate is altogether a different thing.
I keep asking something like that: would it be better to go back to the LIA?
Never seem to get an answer.
They get 10 brownie points in the Climate Crusades point system for using the word “inequalities” with climate in a study or press release. That’s worth 10 free trips to far flung climate conferences and 10 free drinks at the conference bar with little parasols (Mann likes those.)
Warming so TINY that you can only find it by statistically massaging data? Nope, sorry, missed that….
I don’t necessarily mind massaging data. Generating it from whole cloth and modifying it repeatedly in subsequent years gets to me.
fine tuning
Gun deck, pencil whip, dry lab, rubber stamp, fudge . . .
It’s snowing here today. Unusual. Not a crisis. It was warm last week. Not unusual. Not a crisis.
Back to Glacial Periods.
Yeah it’s supposed to be snowing tomorrow up here in warm sunny Canada too. Oh wait, no, I was thinking of warm sunny Mexico. This is cold frozen Canada! No warming crisis here yet… somebody let me know when it happens, please.
You would think meteorologists would recognize weather. Guess not.
Maybe the WMO should hire Jane, as she knows who to call to fix the planet … https://newtube.app/user/RAOB/xPLyzd4
As I already have written responses from the UK Government, including the Climate Change Commission, who suggested that the IPCC had burden of proof evidence for the claims of man made AGW, and then subsequently from the IPCC themselves, that no such evidence can be produced, I have now asked for the evidence from the WMO, and I will be happy to produce this evidence once again that shows every single one of these ideologues have nothing but rhetoric and lies.
Yes, rhetoric and lies leaping out of this propaganda booklet from the very first page, it’s an astonishing piece, written in the best Lysenkoism.
Serious doom porn for the Greta generation.
What crisis?
And all this despite a world-wide pandemic (prompting months-long lockdowns, etc).
But the world is not yet Paradise- so we’re in an “emergency”!
Tom,
I think you pretty accurately described the crisis in their eyes! Only the really good people are supposed to enjoy those benefits; the masses should be paying heavily for the privilege!
You inadvertently described the real problem these people are trying to fix, item 5
Must put a stop to that
I get the distinct impression they’re also trying to fix items 1, 2, 3, 6, and maybe 7…
Experimental vaccines?
Sorry, that’s precisely the crisis! Our overlords intend to return the World to the conditions which obtained during the Middle Ages, i.e. serfdom.
As I mentioned above (correction, below), the crisis is that their intentions are being thwarted by a) people waking up and smelling the fraud and b) Mother Nature being a bit horrid to them regarding climate cycles.
What crisis ?
I’ll tell you:
My fig trees are frozen for the second year in row, Ok, there is the chance for a second cast out, but the fruits than mature very late around oct/nov. and are not of best quality.
Sorry to hear about your figs, Krishna.
My frost tolerant figs haven’t frozen for the first time in five years.
It was a cold winter this year, but consistently above 15° F during the coldest periods.
When temperatures linger below 15° F, I get die back, stalks and branches perish, roots survive.
When temperatures linger below 10° F, I worry about the roots. So far, they’ve survived a few brief nights around 5° F, with day temperatures around 10° F.
Yes, waiting for the stalks to grow and then fruit pushes the first ripe fig into September around here. And quite a few unripe figs when the autumn frosts arrive.
I look forward to a bumper crop of figs this summer. And frequent arguments with yellowjackets (wasps) and ants.
Mediterranean figs, I grow indoors. They don’t like hard freezes at all. Much better figs and I don’t have to flick wasps and ants off my figs.
Roots are ok, but the problem was freezing while casting out. That happend last year too, a month later, they casted a out for a second time – they are also called frost tolerant, but the buds don’t like these temps in the wrong moment 😀
Three years ago, cherries got frost just while flowering, all but 3 (!) cherries lost.
Never before that we had frost problems with what plant ever.
But as long as my frost tolerant Opuntia survived 18 years now…
Another I grow it indoors, I draw it from a seed of Opuntia Ficus indica.(cactus Pear) out of a fruit, they have a nice and fresh taste. und some times they are sold here in Germany 😀
Mediterranean figs, I grow indoors. They don’t like hard freezes at all.
While I lived there I saw them under snow, at a hight of 300/400 m above SL, max 2 km away from seaborder
Actually there is a real climate crisis and it explains the fact they’re lying harder and harder. They know this scam has almost run its course and the well will be drying up soon. Unfortunately for them, the ocean acidification, plastics, and even the clean water potential scams just don’t seem to be getting legs.
…. and by the way, I actually think that plastic pollution and clean water supplies are worthwhile causes, but they know that they just can’t support the bloated, elitist, hypocritical, parasitic, scumbagness that they’ve created over 20 – 40 years.
Yup, the plastic in the oceans is one of the causes of the current warming. It reduces evaporation which is a cooling effect. This allows the oceans to hold onto more energy. We are also adding salt to oceans which has the same effect. So, humans do have a hand in the warming.
Wow, we dared you to get stupider and you did. Bravo.
You are describing what’s the worst possible crisis for the psychopaths in charge.
I think you nailed it, nothing is more terrifying than not being able to identify the terror.
Me thinks they watch too much Hollywood garbage…
Eric, I’ll take “overblown nonsense” for a trillion bucks, please. Where I live (Mendoza, Argentina) the only significant news about weather is the late frost reduced the 2021 wine grape production by 15%. Next.
Oh no!!!!! That’s a disaster!!!!! I love Argentinian wine, red & white, so start up your motors people, get warming asap!!!!!
Nothing beats Chilean wine. Argentinium wine always tastes a bit bitter to me…or California wine, but it is hard to get here in Colombia…
I’ll take both, thanks.
More expensive next year, but Chilean is still very good value over here.
Same thing happened in France this year. Powerful stuff this global warming.
“2020 was one of three warmest years on record, despite cooling La Niña”
“With La Nina in the Pacific now officially started, it will take several months for that surface cooling to be fully realized in the tropospheric temperatures. Typically, La Nina minimum temperatures (and El Nino maximum temperatures) show up around February, March, or April.” – Roy Spencer 1st Oct 2020.
Not much effect of LaN in 2020…but in March / April exactly as predicted by Roy.
Based on Nino34 temperatures, the cold not over yet.
I published in August 2020:
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2020/08/23/solar-plasma-temperature-is-plunging-should-we-worry/#comment-3068819
Check out NIno34 temperatures, again down to Minus 0.6C – winter will be cold.
November 2020 update:
Nino34 SST anom’s hit minimums of minus1.4C-1.3C in Oct2020 and Nov2020 – so global coldest temperatures (+4 months) should be Feb2021 and Mar2021.* Spring could also be late in many parts of the world.
Early 2021 Update:
Nino34 anomaly stayed below minus0.5C until 7March2021 – Plus 4 months is early April, May, June, July.

Hello, Alan:
I am in the NE corner of Illinois, just below the state line. The weather forecast for today is for snow mixed with rain and COLD (not chilly) temperatures today and overnight, with some snow tonight and maybe tomorrow AM.
The geese are not happy.Not laying eggs just yet. Can’t leave the eggs uncovered to go fish for weeds in the shallows. That means hatching time may be late this year. Waiting to find out what does happen.
Can you guys address the impact the various active volcanoes may be having on the atmosphere? The Soufriere Hills volcano’s gas cloud has gone 14,000 miles, now south of Japan and if sulfur dioxide doesn’t block sunlight, what could be better?
Iceland’s newest (and most popular) volcano now has five vents in a line, all actively spewing lava and all outgassing. There are live volcano cams online to watch the show. Most of the activity comes around evening, but that is likely the way the pot is boiling, one big burp at a time.
There are reports that even Toba is quivering, which might mean that the side vents could erupt, if given enough time.
Thanks.
Hi Sara – re your question:
Can you guys address the impact the various active volcanoes may be having on the atmosphere?
Yes I can, to a reasonable degree of accuracy:
CO2, GLOBAL WARMING, CLIMATE AND ENERGY
by Allan M.R. MacRae, B.A.Sc., M.Eng., June 15, 2019
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2019/06/15/co2-global-warming-climate-and-energy-2/
[excerpts]
This formula works reasonably well back to 1982, which is the limit of my data availability.
5. UAH LT Global Temperatures can be predicted ~4 months in the future with just two parameters:
UAHLT (+4 months) = 0.2*Nino34Anomaly + 0.15 – 5*SatoGlobalAerosolOpticalDepth (Figs. 5a and 5b)
6. The sequence is Nino34 Area SST warms, seawater evaporates, Tropical atmospheric humidity increases, Tropical atmospheric temperature warms, Global atmospheric temperature warms, atmospheric CO2 increases (Figs.6a and 6b).
_______________
From my shaky memory – rush job::
It takes a ~century-scale volcano to have much impact (~0.5C for a few years) on global temperature – like El Chichon or Pinatubo – VEI 5or6 and the aerosols must get into the stratosphere to effect global major cooling. Mt St Helens blew sideways and did not have much cooling effect.
See plots in the above paper for more details.
Let me know if you find current data for Sato or similar..
Best, Allan
Of course locally it’s the ~random path of the polar vortex – which skilled meteorologists can predict, maybe a week in advance.
Thanks, Allan!
Here’s the latest I could find: https://www.volcanodiscovery.com/place/305192/earthquakes/sato/archive/2021-jan.html
Quakes near Sato, Miyake-shicho and Tokyo in the Philippine Sea in January 2021.
Hope that helps.
Apologies – to clarify, I meant recent data for the
Sato Global Aerosol Optical Depth
As I recall, my data stopped circa 2012 and I couldn’t find more recent. There must be an ~equivalent out there.
Good call Dr. Spencer but it’s a shame his satellites data set began at the bottom of cooling trend because the alarmists are using that short term warming trend as evidence to drive highly destructive environmental policies. With that said, his work will eventually reveal if there is a temperature trend developing.
Yep, 1979 was the COLDEST year in the NH since the 1940s peak.
Rudi, I noticed that lie as well. NOAA also fiddled with the ONI numbers to eliminate the El Nino that occurred through early May in 2020. This was the real reason 2020 was warm. Since the end of the El Nino the global oceans have been cooling with no end in sight.
If La Nina regains its foothold on the tropics there won’t be any warming in 2021 and probably not for years to come.
Meanwhile, here in the Massachusetts Climate Emergency Theocracy:
“Gas ‘peaker’ plant would make way for more renewables, Massachusetts utilities sayA proposed 55-megawatt natural gas power plant faces pushback over carbon emissions and other pollution, but backers say the affordable option for adding capacity will free up capital for clean energy investments.”
https://energynews.us/2021/04/20/gas-peaker-plant-would-make-way-for-more-renewables-massachusetts-utilities-say/
So, the idiots here don’t want highly efficient peaker plants- they might wish they supported them when the sun isn’t shining and the wind isn’t blowing.
Since summer is coming, they won’t have to worry about it until at least September.
Expert energy advice from 2018:
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2018/12/24/a-2019-resolution-honesty-in-energy-policy/#comment-2566340
Green energy (wind and solar) requires almost 100% spinning reserve, due to intermittency. That is why it is uneconomic energy nonsense.
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2018/11/16/stacking-concrete-blocks-is-a-surprisingly-efficient-way-to-store-energy/#comment-2520849
Here’s an even better solution:
1. Build your wind power system.
2. Build your back-up system consisting of 100% equivalent capacity in gas turbine generators.
3. Using high explosives, blow your wind power system all to hell.
4. Run your back-up gas turbine generators 24/7.
5. To save even more money, skip steps 1 and 3.
“…..relentless, continuing climate change, an increasing occurrence and intensification of extreme events, and severe losses and damage, affecting people, societies and economies….”
I can see that there is a need for a new branch of psychiatry- for those with the now epidemic “climate emergency mental breakdown”.
“the impacts are already too costly for people ”
Thus, shut down WMO and UN !
My impact is costly unusual heating in April, not finished yet:
I explained to this guy that I predicted decades ago that it was going to get colder about now. He got really angry at me, and shouted “STOP SAYING THAT!”
Like it was all my fault, and if I had predicted differently, it would be a lot warmer. Doesn’t work that way.
Scary thoughts:
This guy was of about-average intelligence – half of them are stupider than that!
– George Carlin
The global warming scam is promoted by scoundrels and believed by imbeciles – wolves stampeding the sheep.
The sheep are so stupid they will believe anything, if it is repeated often enough.
From the article: “2020 was one of the three warmest years on record, despite a cooling La Niña event. The global average temperature was about 1.2° Celsius above the pre-industrial (1850-1900) level. The six years since 2015 have been the warmest on record. 2011-2020 was the warmest decade on record.”
Let’s go to the satellite chart:
As you can see, the UAH satellite chart does not back up the claims of the WMO. The year 1998 is just as warm (statistically; the margin of error being 0.1C) as 2016 and 2020,
And temperatures have dropped by 0.7C since the highpoints, so where is this heat the WMO and the alarmists are talking about? Answer: The only place you will find it is in the computer-generated, bogus Hockey Stick chart. Everything they say is based on this Hockey Stick LIE.
And they like to back up their lies by altering the data … https://newtube.app/user/TonyHeller/Di9NTca
Note that global temperature is now where it was in 1988. That’s 33 years. And what will UAH say for April?
Another report for cop26 no doubt. Have I seen effects of climate change ? Yes I have the exact opposite of what were told is going to happen. IPCC climate models based on warming, which the public generally don’t see,the propaganda based on a scape goat term “climate change” which is fed to the public.
Today the sad excuse for a PM of the UK has bolstered the lie with yet another announcement
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-56807520
The pressure put upon the public is increasing leading up to cop26, the one tiny problem I see with these mandates and proposals is, no mandate from the people,this is a world wide conspiracy instigated by ,ipcc, who, most of the World governments and corporations who will profit from the great reset. The decit is made to look like there is a consensus of all the world governments, science,corporations, which is true its a blanket approach to decive the public that every one is on board, forgetting, brushing under the carpet the fact these self appointed guardians of the planet have no mandate from the people.
Its a two pronged attack on the one paw a insistent brainwashing agenda,and on the other, already implementing draconian measures,( we all know what these are already)
The first measure in their eyes is a justification for the second .this is undoubtedly the biggest conspiracy against the population of the planet that has ever been seen, the only comparison i can draw is the stalin/nazi era’s were descent, debate were stifled under threat of imprisonment.
The BBC once said ” the science is settled there is no debate”.
”The science is settled — there is no debate”. That’s what Pope Urban told Galileo before he was sentenced to house imprisionment for the rest of his life.
Surely he said it in Latin?
Scientia sit certa — non est disputandum
Very similar to what bojo said when the UK was put in lockup ,following yet another branch of corrupt science, follow the science. The parallel with climate science is becoming more obvious by the day.
UN partners include the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), International Monetary Fund (IMF), Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO (IOC-UNESCO), International Organization for Migration (IOM), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the World Food Programme (WFP) and the World Health Organization.
So quite clearly, completely independent unconnected political taxpayer funded groups, seeking even more taxpayers’ dosh for their bank accounts…..err sorry, their vital independent research projects! Where can I apply for some of this free cash? After all, these people of dubious parentage, need to enrich themselves somehow, & the bottomless stomach of the taxpayer cash-cow is always available!!!! Haven’t heard from Al Gore or Past-President Obama how their plans of jacking up their $4m sea-front properties are getting along!!!! I see an awful lot of bovine faecal content in here somewhere!!! Then again, perhaps the dumbing-down of education systems, as demanded by Agenda 21, is ahead of schedule!!!! After all, only the wealthy ruling intellectual elite are permitted to think for themselves!!!! We peasants must learn to tug our forelocks & bow our heads in respect to our superiors!!!! 😉
You forgot Bill Gates – he has also joint the millon dollar seafront club
So there are no actual meteorologists at WMO anymore. How do I, non-meteorologist, get one of these sweet, high paying gigs at WMO? I could pedal lies for a big enough paycheck, just like they are.
It is reported world-wide anthropomorphic CO2 emissions decreased in 2020 due to pandemic restrictions. Yet the levels measured at Mauna Loa continue their upward climb, not even a blip. I can only gather from this that reducing emissions will not avert the “crisis.” What will the WMO suggest next?
Mauna Loa,
measures and records the CO2 atmospheric concentration, and it keeps being mentioned continuously and repeatedly in regards of 2020 global lockdown.
In the other hand, the measurements from the CO2 observing satellites,
which actually measure globally the seasonal CO2 variation of the
emissions to atmosphere,
do not seem to be mentioned as much or at all.
Crickets!
cheers
So far the satellite CO2 measurements can’t blame the industrialized countries. That’s why they are launching another CO2 measuring satellite to get it right this time!
And most probably,
on that count of no any regarding and considering of the evidence and the data as for CO2 global emissions, it only means and consist as a non justifiable gross lack of responsibility by the very people trusted with matters of knowledge and the learning curve.
cheers
Atmospheric CO2 concentrations do lag temps, but in the other hand, the global CO2 emissions do not lag at all the temps or the atmospheric thermal variation. !
cheers
Also not subject to the residence time.
Obviously, pointing at the,
again the CO2 global emissions!
cheers
Dood, put down the crack pipe.
Care to explain a little bit more what you mean, dude!
No idea what you pointing at.
Read what you have posted, then try to think about it.
What have I posted that is beyond your intelligence, please quote and be specific, if you literate enough1
So you don’t get it. Got it, figured as much.
Thats all because Co2 is not a problem. It is, in fact, plant food, more is better.
My question – did anyone notice the crisis?
I looked out the window. I went into the garden. The air column is definitely cold for the time of year, sorry what crisis?…..
You can add to that what costs is the greentard babbling on about?
If we used the cost of covid19 as a benchmark the cost of climate change would indistinguishable from zero 🙂
It is cold here in my kingdom, also. I normally have a large population of violets blooming in the grass by this time in the Spring.
This year? Maybe 8 for the entire yard, and it’s going to snow tonight.
I am sad.
What impacts?
“Or is the World Meteorological Organisation claim that we are already experiencing an unaffordable expensive climate crisis overblown nonsense?”
I’ll go with overblown nonsense.
Are the individuals issuing this whining, overly melodramatic statement even vaguely aware of the number of volcanoes currently active, fetching up magma, and expending high volumes of volcano gases into the atmosphere? The list is quite long, and the link to it is here: https://www.volcanodiscovery.com/erupting_volcanoes.html
John Seach also has a list of volcanoes, active and otherwise, at Volcano Live. He’s indicating that Nisyros, a Greek volcano, seems to be waking up and the sulfur dioxide plume from Soufriere is now dissipated over the Pacific, south of Japan, 14,000 miles away from its source: http://volcanolive.com/news.html
Those are probably the simplest things to point to in order to let these panic-stricken money grubbers know that the Earth’s real-time activity in volcanism is probably the only thing that is keeping it habitable and cool enough that we don’t just shrivel up and roll away like dust bunnies.
If they ever learn or understand – even a little – that we mere mortal Hoomans have NO control over this planet, could someone please wake me out of my nap and let me know?
Meantime, this bunch of pseudo-religious money-grubbing twerps would be better off if they all moved to a safe haven: somewhere underground. We can help them move and then put a guard outside to make sure that no one disturbs them.
