The last ever dolphin message was misinterpreted as a surprisingly sophisticated attempt to do a double-backwards-somersault through a hoop whilst whistling the 'Star Spangled Banner', but in fact the message was this: 'So long and thanks for all the fish.'
Considering that over the past 50 years, our estimates of ocean fish population has decreased by 95%, the dolphins may just have realized there's not much fish left to be given to them.
"... you probably haven't realised the seriousness of the situation." I had that realisation more than 40 years ago, and I'm still waiting for any meaningful response from governments.
We are in the middle of another emergency right now with record low temperatures and snowfall in Canada. Can we please have some of this warming that climate change is supposed to bring us, our heating bills are getting a bit hard to handle. Considering that the coastal areas of the US and Canada have become the place where the nut cases out number the sane a rise in sea level is very welcome. I've listened to both sides of the global warming argument from people that are all very well educated scientists and there seems to be as much for it as against it so I'm going to live as much the same as I always have as possible. One big argument against the doom and gloom world ending scenario is that all the lying corrupt politicians have wholeheartedly embraced it and are using it to tax people and force them to change how they live. Politicians never have peoples best interests in mind and are only concerned with power and getting reelected. If a politicians says something is a certain way then I can almost guarantee that it isn't.
the only ones "for" climate change are the profiteers causing it....and very misinformed as most of our crops become unsustainable very quick and global famine happens. quit spreading your lies and your propaganda...as you obviously are not speaking in good faith and are more than likely being some sort of edgelord troll
Blue ocean events (expected to be moderately likely by 2030 and almost certain by 2050) mean drastically reduced temperature differentials between the Arctic and 60 degrees North, which means a sluggish jet stream. And this means big changes to climate patterns in the northern hemisphere. And...this means massively disrupted food production systems in the northern hemisphere. You can do the next one...
I am afraid you are absolutely right. The sluggish jet stream can create droughts simultaneously in America, Europe and Asia, reducing e.g. wheat harvest dramatically even without war. But we must not give up.
lmao, I saw articles predicting ice free arctic in less than 5 years like every year for the past 30 years and its still there, just wrong every time lol
@@xtremelemon8612 ... and in the mean time polar ice has been increasing. No, wait, strike that, ice continues to decrease, so the logical conclusion is, ..., anyone?
This is one of those "what can you say?" episodes. Well done for the clear and comprehensive explanation, but I wish there were even the faintest hope of anything getting done about it.
Talk about it. Make people aware. The more public pressure, the more likelihood of politicians putting in legislation to regulate these companies profiteering from the displacement of tens or hundreds of millions of people.
A colleague of mine recently said that the Inflation Reduction Act in the U.S. will "fix climate change"... all I could do was laugh. The IRA should have been done 30 years ago, in my opinion, yet everyone is patting themselves on the back and celebrating. I wish more people were pushing the severity of all this.
And very hard to try and figure out what to motivate yourself with when you're aware that the norm so many folk are chasing after is going to be gone very shortly in geologic terms and likely our terms too. During the cynical days, i wonder if this is why intelligent life seems to be extremely rare in the universe. It possibly expands and advances far too fast for it's own good, having a nice few centuries of huge growth before making it's habitat inhospitable. Damn our tribalistic tendencies from adapting to life in small groups. Maybe without them, we wouldn't be so caught up as a species constantly fighting and quarrelling as we are now.
@Dave? That's a stupid comment. It's the "dose of reality" that leads to the realisation of there being no chance of this getting fixed. 'Hope' here means, not some wafty aspiration but 'possibility.' It's a standard usage but if you want to nitpick words then at least make sense in your own terms. To say that hope got us here is fatuous. Try greed, selfishness, arrogance, stupidity, laziness and blind faith as causes [for starters].
I love to see any of these climate crisis pushes stake something against it. Like "if the sea doesn't rise by 7 metres by this date I will give my house to charity" or perhaps like a bad doctor loose their licence to practice. I think science and models would become better overnight if being wrong cost them in some way.
You don't understand models then. The purpose of a model is to simulate some variables trending in a certain way and predicting the outcome. The purpose isn't to be accurate. The purpose is to create indicators that can predict possible outcomes. It tells them which are the important variables to keep an eye on and what trends are bad. Scientists make tonnes of models covering a wide array of variables and different combinations of variables. Logic dictates that a large amount of those models will not accurately predict the future, because many of them are using opposite trends of similar variables. When people point to a model as a warning, like in this video, it isn't to claim a scientist looked into their crystal ball. It's to say that the trends that this model mapped are happening and this is what the model predicted if those trends continue.
@@haddow777 Humbug. The modellers play the game to attract funding and a great way to make a living. Make them pay if they get it wrong take back the funding and spoil their game.
@@Cruner62 you would have a lot of destitute weather forecasters than. I'm sorry, but it's kind of hard to comprehend such a shallow view of predictive models, so it's hard to respond. It's like you don't understand even the basic logic of what a predictive model's benefits are. Being wrong is a huge part of building a predictive model. That is why they don't just build one. I guess you see some predictive model's being talked about on the news and somehow think those are tbe only model's being made or something. In actuality, they make multiple models simulating multiple predictions. They run them in parallel. The more right one predicts, the mare they figure the variables it is using match reality. So naturally they hone their predictions to that model. They then make more fine tuned predictions and then make a whole bunch of new models based on the parts of each model that were correct. It's a long and error prone process to build the most accurate model. To try and claim that a model has to be accurate right out the gate does nothing but betray a lack of understanding of predictive model's and general logic. Also, people building and running model's aren't generally looking for funding. Models like that take specific understanding to build and a good amount of computer power. They're already funded. For them, if they get a model right, it just means they're going to refine the model by building a whole slew of new models with further refinements.
In 1924 there was a similar very rapid warming of the Arctic. The explorer Spefenson reported young thin rotten ice between Alaska and the North Pole. There was no ice around Spitsbergen. Glaciers were me!ting rapid!y. If I check the official global temperature records this was at a time when the Earth was at it' s coldest in the last 100 years. How can this be?
It wasn't similar at all. 2001 to 2007 was a bifurcation event leaving the sea ice in a state it hasn't been in probably since the early holocene. There is no way this bifurcation can be reversed given current ghg forcing.
@@chrisreed5463 But why are the the early 1920's shown to be the coldest recent period when all the contemporary evidence is that they were not? 1921 had record heat across USA and Asia. I checked the historic temperature records of the Arctic ports and they all show similar temperature in the 20s to today. What do you mean by a bifurcation event?
Even as person who is very concerned about global warming and the effects of human activity on the climate, I can see that this is an exaggeration of facts meant to scare people. The Arctic is not warming anywhere near this quickly. We don’t need climate hysteria, we need to understand the actual facts and then work to find solutions. We can’t change the damage from years of human activity overnight, but we can calmly move forward, working together, using real science, and build a better future. Hysteria will only lead to failure.
I have just checked the Danish Met Institute Graphs, and Arctic temperatures have fallen by 2.5C over the past six years, that's Winter Spring and Autumn, Summer temperatures on average have not changed over the last 30 years. Arctic sea Ice extent has also been increasing since 2015 We were supposed to see the Arctic Ice free in summer by 2012 Antarctic sea ice was at an all time record in 2014.
Of course climate changes because of earth trajectories - stop wars and destruction and adapt to suit the changes - almost all conflicts are of religious origins and others through ideologies of individuals like the current global cabals aiming at world domination.
Well I look at it this way, if it was global cooling that would be worse as we would all have to scrunch into the land around the equater to stay warm and grow food so we need to look at global warming as a plus not a minus.
It is your fault, turn off the Electric, don't buy anything made from oil, don't use animal products. Sack cloth and ashes is not a good look. Cosmetics, don't buy them. Drink nettle tea, it has no airmiles. Nett Zero is unobtainable it is a fantasy of rich westerners. Ask a typical African what it means to them. Nothing. They will continue to burn fire wood to heat their food, as they have done since the dawn of hominids on this planet. Desertification is mostly because they cook using wood fires. Use wood, get a stone age axe, go cut trees, cook out. The belief that the UK can make do without fossil fuels are deceiving themselves. 12000 wind turbines is no where like enough will need 151000 of them and the fact that the UK has shutdown another two nuclear power stations (not capable of getting energy from Scotland to England) means that 3000 Km of Moroccan HVDC interconnector is still on the drawing board. In the whole history of energy production, as soon as something makes a bit of money, it is nationalised. The only people to benefit from Nett Zero, will be Banks and Corporations, dealing in financial instruments.
CLIMATE ENGINEERING is the main reason for weather-related issues, including the overall warming of the planet. (Pollution plays a small part). The governments will deny it, but weather manipulation has been happening since WW2. There are over 160 patents for weather modification, so we absolutely have the technology to do it. Wherever you might live, look up in the sky and you will notice periodically smoke-like aerosol trails coming from commercial and military planes. These trails are filled with TOXIC aluminum, barium, strontium, etc. NANOPARTICLES that are manipulated by microwave energy(generated by HAARP and cellphone towers) to create droughts, floods, snowstorms, you name it. They are also extremely harmful to human health. There are many players with different agendas. PLEASE INVESTIGATE FOR YOURSELF.

The crazy idea that tinkering politicians would have a thermostat knob that they can turn on with measures paid for by taxpayers Stop the climate scam and green corruption with taxpayers' money
It’s curious, I’m 77 years old and I remember that as far back as 45 years ago “scientists” were predicting catastrophic sea level rise within 10 years and when that didn’t occur they predicted it would happen in the next 10 years, etc etc. Now 45 years later they’re still doing the same thing. It’s hard to believe people when they are so consistently wrong.
Tomorrow never comes. It's all based on dodgy climate models. More ice and snow in the northern hemisphere than since records began. The oceans are also cooler.
I've been wondering.... How do you animate the research articles, figures and other graphics??? One of the best-looking science-related channels on TH-cam!!!
THIS is NOT a science channel at all, clearly you do not know enough about this subject to realize YOU are being conned, stop being so gullible and do some real research on what the broad range of scientific studies have shown over the decades.
@@Splarkszter Better than that i am RIGHT ! This video is simply propaganda designed to convince the ignorant and gullible that something unusual is happening with aspects of climate, just another in a long series, when an examination of both the overall data, and the long history of such claims over the last fifty years have shown them to be spurious. Temperature, weather and climate are ALL TOTALLY within normal variability for our current interglacial. The data is VERY clear.
This all makes me wonder why anyone would move to Florida or any lowland coastal area. The costs of redoing all the infrastructure along the coasts as the sea levels rise or just finding places for everyone to move to if all those places are abandoned are astonishing - a much larger cost than changing our habits and using renewables. Carbon capture is still best done by not ruining what forests we do have and planting more in places that can support them.
It's because sea level isn't rising by 50 meters over night, but more like 15 cm or 6 inches every 15 years. You will be able to live in most parts of Florida for many decades, maybe centuries with a little bit of engineering magic.
@@ax14pz107 very interested in your comment. Does it suggest sea level rise will be non linear over time, ie spurts of rises more than 1 standard deviation from the mean, during certain time periods? If so, I would sincerely wish to learn more....thx.

Now semi-retired, I've spent much of my working life designing & manufacturing precision instruments for the geophysics community. You'll understand that my natural biases are towards making & archiving real-world measurements. I am skeptical of the accuracy of climate models that claim to predict the future, yet need to be "tuned" to make their postdictions of the past match the archived real-world data, & which then do a poor job of matching reality as the future arrives. After all, our planet, along with the plants & animals on it, has survived much worse than a degree or two of warming over a century or three. As you mention in your introduction, we're only just ~15,000 years out of a long period of glaciation, with some forecasts suggesting that another ice age is likely within another ~15,000 years or so. The records from various sources, especially deep borehole ice cores from Greenland & Antarctica, tell us that there have been multiple ice ages in the past. Similarly, we also know that there have been many times that the Earth was much warmer than today, & both animal & plant life flourished with upwards of 6 or 7 times as much CO2 in the atmosphere as there is today. Let us not delude ourselves into thinking that we can easily engineer ourselves out of these slow but massive long-term climate cycles. We need more data, especially over, & at extreme depths of, the world's oceans, & we need much more computing horsepower to improve the climate models to the point that they actually serve a useful purpose instead of simply exciting the alarmists into making more & more extreme forecasts of catastrophes in a distant future. One of humanity's greatest talents is our ability to adapt to many different environments - using fire, clothing, man-made shelters, etc, etc. Let us carefully observe what happens as the decades go by. We can do a lot by preparing contingency plans that are flexible enough, & we being skeptical enough, that we do not risk all our treasure on unproven schemes.
What do you exectly mean by tuning? Some tuning is fine, some is problematic. The idea that every tuning is bad is wrong. Let me explain. A simple prediction is if X then Y. Let’s look at gravity. If I have a bal in my hand and I drop it, gravity would predict it would fall. The bal not falling would be a failed prediction under the condition I actually dropped it. This is quite obvious. However, many people that are critical of climate models forget this condition. They thus conclude that the bal not falling is a failed prediction no matter if I would actually drop the bal. Climate models don’t only predict the influence of changing climate drivers but also how the drivers change in the future. A simplified example is a model that if the CO2 concentration would increase to 800 ppm the temperature would increase with Y. Just because we don’t see a temperature rise of Y is thus not evidence that prediction failed because the CO2 concentration didn’t increase to 800ppm. To check if a climate model is accurate you need to tune is by providing the actual changes in greenhouse gas concentrations but also changes in other drivers like solar influx. Yes, the earth experienced many climate changes. However that simply does not mean there can’t be an antropogenic influence on the climate.
I disagree with your statement that humans a so great at adapting to different surroundings. We adapt our surroundings to become how we like it, and that is exactly the problem. We don't adjust to live in harmony with nature, like animals do, we change nature to suit us. So, I see survival for only a handful, which will tell about the great flood that swept the earth, and it will turn into a myth for maybe the hundredth time in earth's history. And by the time the next civilisation starts to discover some proof for huge floodings in the landscape, it might already be too late again to alter their fate.
@@Vicartje Do you seriously think that humanity will be wiped out by the impacts of climate change? Given our immense numbers never yet seen before on Earth(about to hit 8 billion!), it would take uninhabitability of the Earth as a whole to truly kill us off. As you'll know, both the Arctic and Antarctic will be far more suitable for habitation if warming continues, while much of the Earth will remain habitable but under a different climate that will take getting used to. We may very well see a contemporary African humid period and a greening of the Sahara in the next century.
Show us your precision instruments that protect Fidji from drowning, Pakistan from being flooded, coral reefs from bleaching, Madagascar from catastrophic droughts... The future has arrived already.
Jrb_sland I read your comment and found it to be very well reasoned and satisfying. You remind me of Richard Feynman when he said: "When the models make predictions that are wrong then the models are wrong." Your last statement "... we being skeptical enough, that we do not risk all our treasure on unproven schemes." really strikes a cord in me. We can spend our entire GDP on CO2 reduction and only reduce the Global temperature a tiny fraction of one degree (F or C). We certainly do need to be very careful to adequately test our theories so that we can make the best use of our resources so that our expenditures can be worthwhile.
I live less than 500km from the arctic circle and I am not even going to watch this video because this kind of news are too depressing to me. I'm studying to have a career on renewable energy sector and I'll focus on doing my best to cut global emissions and protect the nature. That is all I can do..
Fundamentalist religion is the root of most of the gullibility that allows a large part of the population to be manipulated to be anti-science. This is particularly true in the US.
I enjoyed your presentation, however I feel you should present the lowest and highest temperature predictions not just the highest ie RPC 2.6 and RPC 8.5. Considering past predictions have been at or below RPC 2.6.
The Arctic minimum summer sea ice trend is zero for the past 17 years. In the past few years it was almost as high as 1995. The probability that this could be due to chance has now dropped to 10% (after Swart et al calculations, 2015). If the hiatus continues until 2027, it will become statistically significant (p
I've just now noticed from the uni bremen (deutsch) time series that there's an approximate cycle 3-4 years long of Arctic Ocean sea ice minimum (September) extent on top of the slow downward trend from 2006-2022 that didn't exist 1972-2006 (the period of their time series). So highest minimum extent years within a cycle were 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014, 2017, 2018, 2021, 2022 and lowest minimum extent years within a cycle were 2007, 2012, 2016, 2020 (of which 2007, 2012 were bigger & famous). Not anything like a Sine wave, they can't be overlaid for a really good match but there's something there. So if a cycle exists then 2023 will be lower than 2022, 2024 will be lower than 2023, and 2025 will be higher than 2024 (so 2024 will be lowest in the cycle). As I stated that's a rather cyclic-looking pattern laid ON TOP OF the slow downward trend of minimum sea ice extent. Hey, I almost made a prediction, never hardly done that before (I'm like Guy McPherson's lazy, handsome younger brother who just grunts "beats me" if you ask him "So what d'you think will happen about ").
Just love all the scientific speak........"could", "believe", "might", "speculate", "modeling", "suggesting", "estimated", "probably", "likely", ect.....
Unfortunately, we have to state that most news about the climate in the media is incomplete, misleading or completely wrong. The completely fundamental question of WHETHER the emissions of carbon dioxide affect the climate so much that it is noticeable is rarely addressed. It is presented instead as an established truth
When it comes to tipping points this is what the IPCC (Special Report on implications of 1.5C or more warming, Chapter 3) says:“there is little evidence for a tipping point in the transition from perennial to seasonal ice cover. No evidence has been found for irreversibility or tipping points, suggesting that year-round sea ice will return given a suitable climate”. The IPCC also do not believe the melting of the arctic permafrost will cause a tipping point in the release of warming methane gas “the carbon released to the atmosphere from thawing permafrost is projected to be restricted to 0.09-0.19 Gt C yr-1 at 2°C of global warming and to 0.08-0.16 Gt C yr-1 at 1.5°C, which does not indicate a tipping point”. The Earth's climate is a multi input thermodynamic system and will conform to Le Chatelier's Principle.
Judging by ice-cores taken at Greenland the temperature at that location, say over the last 10,000 years, has fluctuated within a steady range. On the basis that this natural trend continues then it is inevitable that the icecaps will continue reducing within this epoch, just as they have done until today.
Yes, over thousands of years; that's how the natural cycle works. We're speed running that process by dumping unheard of quantities of greenhouse gases in the air in a short time (centuries). Earth is a large system with a lot of inertia or momentum. We're only starting to get a sense of how much we've thrown it off while continuing to make the problem worse because emissions don't go down.
It's fun to watch this on Christmas 2022, as the entire northern hemisphere is having the most record breaking, widespread winter of all time. 7 feet of snow in Japan. Once again record breaking cold in Canada, USA.

2004 they said "no ice in the arctic by 2007". Then in 2006 they said the same about 2010. Then when that didn't happen it was no ice by 2014. Then that didn't happen it was 2017. Same old bulldust over and over. If your predictions turn out to be wrong time and time again then look at your certitudes.

The Hunga-Tonga-Hunga-Hapai underwater eruption last January ejected tons of ocean vapor into the upper atmosphere imposing some degree of warming albeit temporary to global rise according to a NASA report last August. These anomalies are not usually taken into account in computer modeling (well maybe now) but look at this year's droughts and floods which mostly attributed to climate change but possibly to this volcanic eruption.
@@Tengooda Most vocanic eruptions cool the atmosphere with aerosols that block sunlight, but not the HTHH volcanic eruption which will cause temporary warming as the water vapor some 400,000 tons is in the stratosphere and will remain there for about a decade. I think the article mentioned it could cause a T rise up to 0.5°C estimate.
@@williamm8069 A NASA article entitled "Tonga Eruption Blasted Unprecedented Amount of Water Into Stratosphere" dated 2nd August 2022 states, "the huge amounts of water vapor from the eruption may have a small, temporary warming effect, since water vapor traps heat. The effect would dissipate when the extra water vapor cycles out of the stratosphere and would not be enough to noticeably exacerbate climate change effects", but makes no mention of 0.5°C warming. I have not found that figure elsewhere - that is not to say it does not exist, but if you cannot provide a source you should withdraw it, particularly as you appear to be attributing some of this year's climate events to that eruption.
@@Tengooda I read that NASA article as well and was surprised but I was trying to find the source for you. Geologyhub YT channel mentioned the warming effect but I read it from another source. It could just have been scientists speculating without actual measurements. I know academically I should retract the statement but I was hoping someone else could have pointed it out. 400,000 tons of water vapor 60 km high in the atmosphere definitely made a disturbance to the jet stream and climate - the question is how much disturbance? I do remember the article mentioned the water vapor will remain for several years to almost a decade.
This is pretty obvious to people my age(38) than the new generation because they are not used to seeing 5 ft of snow like I did when I was 5 years old living in Wisconsin the whole time. I don't barely see even a foot of snow almost all winter now
Wisconsin here, too; plus I grew up in the Rocky Mountains. When I was a kid, we used to go drive past a glacier on Sunday drives. Even my aunt, who was married at the base of that glacier in the 1970's, didn't realize that it has melted away entirely now. Why doesn't she see it? Because in Utah, climate change has consequences so dire and immediate that you can't really acknowledge how bad it is--it's too awful to admit. Even as the snowpack that used to last until the end of August is now gone in June, and the fresh water source of that melting snow is gone with it. I moved to Wisconsin for the omnipresence of water, and the weather--including the cold winters. In the 14 years since, winters have only twice been close to the historical norms. People of our generation came along when the science was strong but the anti-science had just begun. When you have the genuine science come along at the right time to absorb it, and see the impacts shortly after, I think it may have made us more likely to be immune to the propagandists.
@@paintedwings74 What many don't want to realize it this planet is everchanging. There have been ice ages that have lasted thousands of years. I might not be ready for one myself, but I am definitely at better odds than many are of surviving whatever mother nature throws at us
@@jesperlykkeberg7438 Thats why it's called climate CHANGE and not global WARMING. The climate is experiencing more extreme shifts in weather. Once you understand that, you'll see how one area could be having warmer winters with less snowfall, while another area could be having colder weather with more snowfall
If you are genuinely curious, there are answers to that. Warmer winters mean a slower, wavier jet stream (more similar to the summer jet stream). The atmospheric motion of the jet stream keeps the arctic and subarctic air masses largely separated from each other. With the increased “waviness” of the warmer jet stream, you get large southward dips that carry arctic air into southernly latitudes. So the average air temperature is warmer, the arctic air is warmer, and the winter jet stream is weaker. However the now-warmer arctic air is still far colder than the air that would be typically above, say, Texas. So you get extreme winter events south of the arctic, while temperatures warm and ice decreases in the arctic.
Yes, let's completely overturn our current economic model based around fossil fuels (for which there is no currently adequate replacement) and cause mas starvation and death due to disrupted food and energy production and sharp decline in living standards all for MODELING which is really just interpreted and quite possibly "massaged" data foretelling things that may or may not happen. If the west's living standard is reduced by a significant margin, imagine what they would due to the impoverished peoples in the developing world! The Earth is a massively complicated (but adaptive) system, and it thrived and survived long before humans with massive disruptors. To think that humans could have such an impact is the height of hubris. Now, this is not to say that the Earth might not be warming or that we shouldn't develop alternatives to fossil fuels, BUT we need to ensure those systems ACTUALLY EXIST and CAN BE IMPLEMENTED BEFORE we cut ourselves off from the only fuel source which can currently sustain the global economic model. Furthermore, the idea of anthprogenic climate change has not been proven, and there isn't actually a consensus of scientific opinion (despite media and political screeching to the opposite). The scientists who present alternative data and opinions are slienced and shunned because they present what is not popular. Science is the quest for truth, and anything else is propaganda and biased in furtherance of an agenda, not the truth.
Biproduct of more fresh water in the surface of the sea. We see the same in Greenland, but overall the temps are rising. Both sea and land temps. It mostly shows as the sea doesn't freeze over anymore as it used to.

Papers predict . . . While in reality, the Arctic ice pack is much above the mean size going back over one century. Most studies start at 1979, which is near an all-time maximum
Nice to hear from someone who is thinking about this. I was a Teen in the 1970's in Montreal Quebec and my personal experience was that this was a very cold period. A good friend got frost bite on both of his heels. The media and the experts then were predicting that we were entering a new Ice Age. In I think 1974 I spent a whole summer at our cottage and almost everyday it never got much above 65 F. I used to complain that I was purple when I swam. Again bloody cold. Later in the early 80's I worked in Calgary Alberta. On my first winter there we had a 6 week long stretch where the weather every night and morning went below minus 45 Farenheit. I went out for a jog and my ear lobes froze solid. It was a great time to start a temperature series and declare it to represent the norm.
You should point out that we have Arctic sea ice surveys going back to the 1920s and even satellite data back in the early 70s. The only reason they start at 1979 is because, as you point out, 1979 was a maximum in what surveys since the 1920s tell us is a cyclical pattern.
@@grindupBaker ad hominem attacks are the refuge of those who disagree with the truth. Another fact is that the Arctic currently has more ice than 6000 years ago according to Science Daily (10/20/08) source, “Geological survey of Norway“. They go on to state that the Arctic may have been periodically ice free during that era
But he explained the 1979 start point by saying that's when the measurements became accurate. Therefore they can safely ignore all the prior data. That's one way to get rid of inconvenient contrary data. The trick, of course, is to say it with a straight face.
I wish we could just go back to another snowball earth! (When ice core samples for that period show approximately 25,000ppm CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere).
The summer of 2011 we had 60 days of triple degree heat and then the lowest sea ice level was recorded in 2012. This year with all the global heat waves going I’m placing my bet that 2023 Artic sea ice will be the lowest Ever recorded or no sea ice at all next summer. Hope next year I’m not saying I told u so.
Climate change makes me think of the Fermi Paradox, which questions why-- given the size and age of the universe-- we haven't seen any sign of any other life out there. One possibility is that all civilizations destroy themselves before achieving interstellar travel. I wonder if we are about to be an example of that. Another possibility is that we are actually alone. Life is just that special and rare and unique.
I was a research assistant at university for a scientist studying arctic plants. I logged plants in her study area into a database. I was amazed that most of the plants were the same as those I knew in the Pacific Northwest. In miniature. I expect many could grow bigger in warmer temps. I like the thought, anyway.
Anyone that wants to better understand warming periods should definitely check out Tony Heller. He covers the medieval warning period and even drought conditions and river levels.
Tony Heller is backed by the fossil fuel industry. He stands to gain from any inaction done towards climate change. It has already been proven that the medieval warming period was very localized over Europe. Current global temperature and co2 levels are near exceeding the maximums in all of human history, all in the span of just a decade.
I mean, we're almost certainly looking at a 3 Centigrade increase -- trying to calm ourselves by still talking about what would have happened had we done the right thing 20 years ago is just preventing people from seeing what the future will really be like.
And yet the climate models have consistently over-predicted warming and have repeatedly been revised to show less warming. It was an interesting hypothesis back in the 80s but has since become a political hoax.
@@kirklaird8345 that's not actually the truth. Initially the models over predicted, bevarar there were buffets like the pema frost. And now we're running out of buffers, and it's turning the other way. We know how much energy the sun insolates. We know how much the carbon blanket keeps. It's very basic science. Predictions from the 1800s were confirmed by satellites in the 80s. The only question is where that energy gets stored. And the more carbon we add, the faster we store more of it Where do you think it gets stored?
@@jonwatte4293 They are gaslighting you. CO2 is a greenhouse gas, but the wavelengths it absorbs and then emits are nearly totally absorbed. Adding more CO2 has very little effect. The models used the assumption that the forecasted slight increase in temperature due to CO2 would cause a significant increase in water vapor content in the atmosphere. This "accelerated feedback" mechanism was the main driver of the forecasts of increasing temps but it didn't happen. They have had to repeatedly revise climate models to account for the fact that temperature just hasn't increased like it was supposed to. In fact climate scientists cannot model cloud formation - which, after the sun's radiation, and our own atmosphere is the most important factor in climate. You should ask yourself this: If climate science was "settled science" then how did they overlook the so-called buffers you mention and why have all the forecasts been wrong requiring models to be repeatedly revised? The Maldives are still not submerged. The oceans are still rising at the same rate they have been rising for 150 years (about 1" per decade) and the Arctic summer sea ice is still there - and it hasn't changed much since 2006.
As an American Anglophile, I truly enjoy your accent. You speak English beautifully. To our point: The existential question about climate disaster SEEMS to be true.
So why is the arctic ice still there if it has been melting much faster? It was predicted to be completely gone durings summers many years ago. How does this fit in with collapsing far more quickly than previous models?
No it wasn't. There were like two models that had the most extreme outcomes of the most extreme scenarios showing that maybe, possibly, if we get extremely unlucky, the Arctic could melt in the 2010s. I know it's hard to understand, but something having an absurdly low chance of happening doesn't mean it 100% will happen.
One thing that you can add to this is volcanic actions of late,one of the last one's knocked the earth's axis by nearly 7inchs, may not sound much but it puts the Arctic in the sun for longer 🙃 Model's are just that Model's a slight miscalculation and it's going to be out by a long way ,just a guess at a worst case cenario
If you haven't had sleepless nights from the positive feedback loop of methane release in the Eastern Siberian shelf of the arctic ocean, you are part of the problem.
⚠️📢 We are still in an ice age and moving toward a warming period. The climate was never constant, to begin with. There isn't much humanity can do about. ❕️

@0:34 The ice extent on the picture is far from accurate, where it only shows 70-80 % of the real ice extent, which you can get from the Danish Institute for Meteorology, DMI. There you can also check that the icecurve is just normal, compared to the mean values between 2004-2013. There's no collapse what so ever in sight. About Greenland, there has been a small loss of ice during the latest 20 years, about 200 Gton /year. (1 Gton is eq to 1 km3 of water). It can sound a lot, but if it continue to do so it will take about another 2000 years for all ice on Greenland to melt. In the meantime perhaps the weather will change. Maybe you should have a re -think.

Loved the sea ice graphics. The ice was seen flowing back and forth while the cloud formations remained static, "Simulation" should have been added as a caption. You used the term "Computer Modelling" a number of times in this piece surely shooting yourself in the foot. Just a few short months ago the absurdity of this method of presentating flawed (or corrupt) data as mathematical fact was illustrated on the outbreak of Covid 19. The early models having been proved wildly wide of the mark on casualty numbers, were remodelled time after time in a vain effort to get near to real world statistics. Governments are intentionally destroying national economies in pursuit of the great reset using climate models. This is all theoritical, or junk, science. Empirical evidence shows that the Earth is cooling, Greenland ice is thicker, polar bears are becoming a pest to indiginous communities and Ms. Thunberg is showing early signs of growing up. Who funds the scientists who produced the papers on which you based your piece.? Any climate scientist unless nearing retirement, would be foolish enough to depart from the alarmist narrative, unless he or she had a driving ambition to ask if you want fries with your order.
are you seriously implying that academia ALL OVER THE WORLD is involved in some large conspiracy? who would gain anything from that? Data doesn't change no matter who funds the research.
Difficult to know what to say after watching this. Especially in the midst of the Putin madness and the resultant rush back to fossil fuels. At 69, I'm not going to see too much of this, but what a God awful mess we're handing over to our kids. My youngest is only 13 and my grand children are only 10 and 8 - they are going to see the full horror show. If they survive it. As a child of the 50s and 60s, who has spent his whole life seeing the world getting better and fairer and more prosperous, it's a real kick in the guts to realise now that my generation and the ones before it, are handing over a world of potential nightmare problems to our children and grandchildren. How did we manage to screw things up so badly? and, if we survive, will we learn our lesson? I'm afraid I very much doubt it.
For us babyboomers to get back at least some credibility one consequence is to try to approach a zero carbon lifestyle immediately. Which means strictly no flying, no fossil cars, plant based diet, abandon fossil heating, shop stop, handing over our houses to young families.

As regards the melting of Arctic Ice, the records nearly always seem to start in 1979. Strange that, considering it was a year of record extent for Arctic Ice. Even so, data from NOAA (2022) show winter (March) ice coverage has hardly changed since '79, and that the summer (September) coverage trend had stopped declining since 2007. How inconvenient! Didn't someone predict in 2007 Arctic ice free by 2010, or 2015, or 2013, or in 5 years? Or was it in 2008 the Arctic ice sheet would melt away. Also predicted in 2008 North Pole ice free in ... 2008 ... or in 10 years. 2009 prediction: Arctic ice free in 2014. 2012 prediction: snow will be gone by 2020. And 2013 star prediction: Methane catastrophe in 2 years because of ice free Arctic. 2018 prediction: zero chance of permanent ice in Arctic by 2022. It's still there, and it's stopped shrinking. If you consider global sea ice cover, it was basically flat from 1981 to 2008, rose until 2010, stayed level until 2015, dropped until 2018, and then rebounded almost all the way back to the 1990-2000 average. Nobody predicted theses changes, nor can they explain them. The changes have no relationship to the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. The climate crisis/emergency/apocalypse is make-believe.
@Brent Summers Thin ice is more conducive to the maintenance of bear and walrus populations. Despite all the predictions, the Arctic remains increasingly biologically productive. Even if the ice were to disappear in the summer, this would not cause the extinction of polar bears. The Arctic has been ice-free during the Holocene climate optimum, and during the previous Eemian interglacial (both of which were warmer than current). The polar bears and other fauna were present during these events, and neither of these (obviously) resulted in their extinction or the obliteration of Arctic ecosystems.
Canada's arctic islands where once covered in lush forests, but now my country is completely frozen half the time and half of it is frozen all the time . i don't mind if things warm up a bit.
Yes, and only 12,000 years ago Almost all of Canada was under ice almost 5 miles deep over a lot of it. I was in Canada the last 2 winters near Toronto. It was bloody cold much of the time and it snowed a-lot. This is just Weather but I do want to commiserate about it.

About time to recognize that those ‘doom mongers’ are proven to have been pretty much spot-on I should think. Especially with Kipling (or his parody) in mind.
Yet the forecasts (there have been many over the decades) that the Maldives would be submerged by 2020 hasn't happen (in fact they are slightly bigger than they were decades ago) and the Arctic summer sea ice, which was supposed to disappear by 2014 is still there - pretty much the same as it was in 2006.

The Arctic has been cooling for the last 8000 years. A little up and down for the last 100 years, but generelly it is still cooling. We are near the end of the inter glacial periode.
"The Arctic has been cooling for the last 8000 years. A little up and down for the last 100 years, but generally it is still cooling. " No, the Arctic is rapidly warming, with one town in northern Norway now averaging SEVEN degrees F warmer than the long-term average.

Here in Puerto Vallarta MX, the first wave of winter change hit us. El nino is here. I was first a tourist and became a resident in this region. When young it was dry with a rainy season, now we move into much more rain as the changes occur.

I have been in the rain forests of Brazil Colombia, Phillipines and Thailand. That rainfall was the first time I feared for my life and my neighbors. If a person fell on their back the rain was the equivalent of fire hoses in the face.

For most of the period of human civilization temperatures were WARMER than now.
Larger oceans and seas means that the Earth will be capable of retaining more latent heat. More latent heat contained in our oceans means dramatically higher global cloud cover than we have today. More cloud cover means that there will be more overall precipitation. This may result in more snow cover over higher elevation areas. It also bodes well for deflection of the Sun's light and heat away from Earth. What may be lost in the Earth's potential to deflect the Sun from the melting of the Arctic ice cap and the ice sheets in Greenland may be more than recovered elsewhere. Also, we really don't know for certain what sorts of effect an ice-free Artic would have on ocean currents. Everything at this point is just speculation. The only thing that is certain is that global warming is much more conducive to life overall than the opposite.

The 2017 melt season was also notable for its late melt events, one of them occurring on October 29 to 31, tied for the latest for any year in the satellite record. Between September 2018 and August 2019, the Greenland Ice Sheet set a record for ice loss (532 ± 58 billion metric tons). Between September 2019 and August 2020, the rate of ice loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet was much lower (293 ± 66 billion metric tons), but still above the 2002-2020 average measured by GRACE. Average ice loss for Greenland over the full 18-year record was 268 ± 14 billion metric tons per year. You facts are simply wrong.

Ironically a 40% decrease in sulfur pollution from Coal reduction also heats up Earth another 1 degree Celsius due to the Aerosol Masking Effect being twice as bad as previously thought. This is not mentioned in the news of course but any science search will show this truth.

Don't know why people give the IPCC reports so much leverage... these climate change patterns are carved into the rock beneath us. Species die out over and over, thanks to technology most of us might survive this one. Pity the natural progression is used as propaganda for politicians and their fellow capitalists, humanity has been convinced they actually have control over any of this.
Will the lack of food (27 countries that used to export grains, fruit and/or vegetables, are no longer exporting due to climate problems!) and clean water (droughts and salt water inundation) kill us, or will it be seas rising by 14 foot plus? Either way, not much time left. Less than 20 years I would say, and maybe not much more than 10...
Bering Sea warming? Maybe that's why the Oplio Crab season has been canceled. The quota for fisherman is determined by population. An estimated 1 billion crab are missing. Thus requiring the cancelation of an entire fishing season. Don't Look Up.
I can remember last year when you stated categorically that the Gulf Stream was not going to be affected any time soon when anyone who’s watched ‘The day after tomorrow’ has been expecting it for years 🤔😉
Gulf stream probably won't be under threat until we go past 4 degrees Celsius. If that does happen it will be at the back end of this century. Not any time soon on a human timescale but admittedly still pretty near term in the big scheme of things. That's why climate action is so crucial.
Many of the ideas from that movie seem to be copied from the 1979 novel "The sixt winter" by John Gribbin ad Douglas Orgill. I've red it in high school, took it as work of science fiction but never forgot it. Seems to have some things not wrong by now: Humanity will be too slow to respond accurate.

We are in the middle of another emergency right now with record low temperatures and snowfall in Canada. Can we please have some of this warming that climate change is supposed to bring us, our heating bills are getting a bit hard to handle. Considering that the coastal areas of the US and Canada have become the place where the nut cases out number the sane a rise in sea level is very welcome. I've listened to both sides of the global warming argument from people that are all very well educated scientists and there seems to be as much for it as against it so I'm going to live as much the same as I always have as possible. One big argument against the doom and gloom world ending scenario is that all the lying corrupt politicians have wholeheartedly embraced it and are using it to tax people and force them to change how they live. Politicians never have peoples best interests in mind and are only concerned with power and getting reelected. If a politicians says something is a certain way then I can almost guarantee that it isn't.

Blue ocean events (expected to be moderately likely by 2030 and almost certain by 2050) mean drastically reduced temperature differentials between the Arctic and 60 degrees North, which means a sluggish jet stream. And this means big changes to climate patterns in the northern hemisphere. And...this means massively disrupted food production systems in the northern hemisphere. You can do the next one...
I am afraid you are absolutely right. The sluggish jet stream can create droughts simultaneously in America, Europe and Asia, reducing e.g. wheat harvest dramatically even without war. But we must not give up.

Damn our tribalistic tendencies from adapting to life in small groups. Maybe without them, we wouldn't be so caught up as a species constantly fighting and quarrelling as we are now.
@Dave? That's a stupid comment. It's the "dose of reality" that leads to the realisation of there being no chance of this getting fixed. 'Hope' here means, not some wafty aspiration but 'possibility.' It's a standard usage but if you want to nitpick words then at least make sense in your own terms. To say that hope got us here is fatuous. Try greed, selfishness, arrogance, stupidity, laziness and blind faith as causes [for starters].
Nothing can be done about it. Even those who say change needs to be done will not change enough.
I love to see any of these climate crisis pushes stake something against it. Like "if the sea doesn't rise by 7 metres by this date I will give my house to charity" or perhaps like a bad doctor loose their licence to practice. I think science and models would become better overnight if being wrong cost them in some way.
You don't understand models then. The purpose of a model is to simulate some variables trending in a certain way and predicting the outcome. The purpose isn't to be accurate. The purpose is to create indicators that can predict possible outcomes. It tells them which are the important variables to keep an eye on and what trends are bad.
Scientists make tonnes of models covering a wide array of variables and different combinations of variables. Logic dictates that a large amount of those models will not accurately predict the future, because many of them are using opposite trends of similar variables.
When people point to a model as a warning, like in this video, it isn't to claim a scientist looked into their crystal ball. It's to say that the trends that this model mapped are happening and this is what the model predicted if those trends continue.
@@haddow777 Humbug. The modellers play the game to attract funding and a great way to make a living. Make them pay if they get it wrong take back the funding and spoil their game.
@@Cruner62 you would have a lot of destitute weather forecasters than. I'm sorry, but it's kind of hard to comprehend such a shallow view of predictive models, so it's hard to respond. It's like you don't understand even the basic logic of what a predictive model's benefits are. Being wrong is a huge part of building a predictive model. That is why they don't just build one. I guess you see some predictive model's being talked about on the news and somehow think those are tbe only model's being made or something.
In actuality, they make multiple models simulating multiple predictions. They run them in parallel. The more right one predicts, the mare they figure the variables it is using match reality. So naturally they hone their predictions to that model. They then make more fine tuned predictions and then make a whole bunch of new models based on the parts of each model that were correct. It's a long and error prone process to build the most accurate model.
To try and claim that a model has to be accurate right out the gate does nothing but betray a lack of understanding of predictive model's and general logic.
Also, people building and running model's aren't generally looking for funding. Models like that take specific understanding to build and a good amount of computer power. They're already funded. For them, if they get a model right, it just means they're going to refine the model by building a whole slew of new models with further refinements.
Ok
@@Cruner62are you brain-dead?
In 1924 there was a similar very rapid warming of the Arctic. The explorer Spefenson reported young thin rotten ice between Alaska and the North Pole. There was no ice around Spitsbergen. Glaciers were me!ting rapid!y. If I check the official global temperature records this was at a time when the Earth was at it' s coldest in the last 100 years. How can this be?
We are actually cooling. They give you statistics to fit their narrative.
Notice that nobody will give you a compelling answer & understand that data from this period & beyond has been erased or ignored by mainstream

It wasn't similar at all. 2001 to 2007 was a bifurcation event leaving the sea ice in a state it hasn't been in probably since the early holocene. There is no way this bifurcation can be reversed given current ghg forcing.
They have tampered with the temperature records and reduced the temperature 1920-1940.
@@chrisreed5463 But why are the the early 1920's shown to be the coldest recent period when all the contemporary evidence is that they were not? 1921 had record heat across USA and Asia.

Even as person who is very concerned about global warming and the effects of human activity on the climate, I can see that this is an exaggeration of facts meant to scare people. The Arctic is not warming anywhere near this quickly. We don’t need climate hysteria, we need to understand the actual facts and then work to find solutions. We can’t change the damage from years of human activity overnight, but we can calmly move forward, working together, using real science, and build a better future. Hysteria will only lead to failure.
I have just checked the Danish Met Institute Graphs, and Arctic temperatures have fallen by 2.5C over the past six years, that's Winter Spring and Autumn, Summer temperatures on average have not changed over the last 30 years. Arctic sea Ice extent has also been increasing since 2015 We were supposed to see the Arctic Ice free in summer by 2012 Antarctic sea ice was at an all time record in 2014.
Thought it is type of ice that has changed and thickness.

Carbon capture is still best done by not ruining what forests we do have and planting more in places that can support them.

Now semi-retired, I've spent much of my working life designing & manufacturing precision instruments for the geophysics community. You'll understand that my natural biases are towards making & archiving real-world measurements. I am skeptical of the accuracy of climate models that claim to predict the future, yet need to be "tuned" to make their postdictions of the past match the archived real-world data, & which then do a poor job of matching reality as the future arrives.
After all, our planet, along with the plants & animals on it, has survived much worse than a degree or two of warming over a century or three. As you mention in your introduction, we're only just ~15,000 years out of a long period of glaciation, with some forecasts suggesting that another ice age is likely within another ~15,000 years or so. The records from various sources, especially deep borehole ice cores from Greenland & Antarctica, tell us that there have been multiple ice ages in the past. Similarly, we also know that there have been many times that the Earth was much warmer than today, & both animal & plant life flourished with upwards of 6 or 7 times as much CO2 in the atmosphere as there is today. Let us not delude ourselves into thinking that we can easily engineer ourselves out of these slow but massive long-term climate cycles.
We need more data, especially over, & at extreme depths of, the world's oceans, & we need much more computing horsepower to improve the climate models to the point that they actually serve a useful purpose instead of simply exciting the alarmists into making more & more extreme forecasts of catastrophes in a distant future.
One of humanity's greatest talents is our ability to adapt to many different environments - using fire, clothing, man-made shelters, etc, etc. Let us carefully observe what happens as the decades go by. We can do a lot by preparing contingency plans that are flexible enough, & we being skeptical enough, that we do not risk all our treasure on unproven schemes.
What do you exectly mean by tuning? Some tuning is fine, some is problematic. The idea that every tuning is bad is wrong. Let me explain. A simple prediction is if X then Y. Let’s look at gravity. If I have a bal in my hand and I drop it, gravity would predict it would fall. The bal not falling would be a failed prediction under the condition I actually dropped it. This is quite obvious. However, many people that are critical of climate models forget this condition. They thus conclude that the bal not falling is a failed prediction no matter if I would actually drop the bal. Climate models don’t only predict the influence of changing climate drivers but also how the drivers change in the future. A simplified example is a model that if the CO2 concentration would increase to 800 ppm the temperature would increase with Y. Just because we don’t see a temperature rise of Y is thus not evidence that prediction failed because the CO2 concentration didn’t increase to 800ppm. To check if a climate model is accurate you need to tune is by providing the actual changes in greenhouse gas concentrations but also changes in other drivers like solar influx.
Yes, the earth experienced many climate changes. However that simply does not mean there can’t be an antropogenic influence on the climate.
I disagree with your statement that humans a so great at adapting to different surroundings. We adapt our surroundings to become how we like it, and that is exactly the problem. We don't adjust to live in harmony with nature, like animals do, we change nature to suit us. So, I see survival for only a handful, which will tell about the great flood that swept the earth, and it will turn into a myth for maybe the hundredth time in earth's history. And by the time the next civilisation starts to discover some proof for huge floodings in the landscape, it might already be too late again to alter their fate.
@@Vicartje Do you seriously think that humanity will be wiped out by the impacts of climate change? Given our immense numbers never yet seen before on Earth(about to hit 8 billion!), it would take uninhabitability of the Earth as a whole to truly kill us off. As you'll know, both the Arctic and Antarctic will be far more suitable for habitation if warming continues, while much of the Earth will remain habitable but under a different climate that will take getting used to. We may very well see a contemporary African humid period and a greening of the Sahara in the next century.
Show us your precision instruments that protect Fidji from drowning, Pakistan from being flooded, coral reefs from bleaching, Madagascar from catastrophic droughts... The future has arrived already.
Jrb_sland I read your comment and found it to be very well reasoned and satisfying. You remind me of Richard Feynman when he said: "When the models make predictions that are wrong then the models are wrong." Your last statement "... we being skeptical enough, that we do not risk all our treasure on unproven schemes." really strikes a cord in me. We can spend our entire GDP on CO2 reduction and only reduce the Global temperature a tiny fraction of one degree (F or C). We certainly do need to be very careful to adequately test our theories so that we can make the best use of our resources so that our expenditures can be worthwhile.

The Arctic minimum summer sea ice trend is zero for the past 17 years. In the past few years it was almost as high as 1995. The probability that this could be due to chance has now dropped to 10% (after Swart et al calculations, 2015). If the hiatus continues until 2027, it will become statistically significant (p
I've just now noticed from the uni bremen (deutsch) time series that there's an approximate cycle 3-4 years long of Arctic Ocean sea ice minimum (September) extent on top of the slow downward trend from 2006-2022 that didn't exist 1972-2006 (the period of their time series). So highest minimum extent years within a cycle were 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014, 2017, 2018, 2021, 2022 and lowest minimum extent years within a cycle were 2007, 2012, 2016, 2020 (of which 2007, 2012 were bigger & famous). Not anything like a Sine wave, they can't be overlaid for a really good match but there's something there. So if a cycle exists then 2023 will be lower than 2022, 2024 will be lower than 2023, and 2025 will be higher than 2024 (so 2024 will be lowest in the cycle). As I stated that's a rather cyclic-looking pattern laid ON TOP OF the slow downward trend of minimum sea ice extent.

Unfortunately, we have to state that most news about the climate in the media is incomplete, misleading or completely wrong. The completely fundamental question of WHETHER the emissions of carbon dioxide affect the climate so much that it is noticeable is rarely addressed. It is presented instead as an established truth
When it comes to tipping points this is what the IPCC (Special Report on implications of 1.5C or more warming, Chapter 3) says:“there is little evidence for a tipping point in the transition from perennial to seasonal ice cover. No evidence has been found for irreversibility or tipping points, suggesting that year-round sea ice will return given a suitable climate”. The IPCC also do not believe the melting of the arctic permafrost will cause a tipping point in the release of warming methane gas “the carbon released to the atmosphere from thawing permafrost is projected to be restricted to 0.09-0.19 Gt C yr-1 at 2°C of global warming and to 0.08-0.16 Gt C yr-1 at 1.5°C, which does not indicate a tipping point”.
The Earth's climate is a multi input thermodynamic system and will conform to Le Chatelier's Principle.

Judging by ice-cores taken at Greenland the temperature at that location, say over the last 10,000 years, has fluctuated within a steady range.

Yes, over thousands of years; that's how the natural cycle works. We're speed running that process by dumping unheard of quantities of greenhouse gases in the air in a short time (centuries).

2004 they said "no ice in the arctic by 2007". Then in 2006 they said the same about 2010. Then when that didn't happen it was no ice by 2014. Then that didn't happen it was 2017. Same old bulldust over and over. If your predictions turn out to be wrong time and time again then look at your certitudes.

And here I just read about the Thwaits in the antarctic collapsing faster than originally thought. Outstanding. We're just all kinds of screwed
The Hunga-Tonga-Hunga-Hapai underwater eruption last January ejected tons of ocean vapor into the upper atmosphere imposing some degree of warming albeit temporary to global rise according to a NASA report last August. These anomalies are not usually taken into account in computer modeling (well maybe now) but look at this year's droughts and floods which mostly attributed to climate change but possibly to this volcanic eruption.
"imposing [a] 0.5°C global rise according to geologists."
What is the source for that assertion?
@@Tengooda you could look yourself
@@Tengooda Most vocanic eruptions cool the atmosphere with aerosols that block sunlight, but not the HTHH volcanic eruption which will cause temporary warming as the water vapor some 400,000 tons is in the stratosphere and will remain there for about a decade. I think the article mentioned it could cause a T rise up to 0.5°C estimate.
@@williamm8069 A NASA article entitled "Tonga Eruption Blasted Unprecedented Amount of Water Into Stratosphere" dated 2nd August 2022 states, "the huge amounts of water vapor from the eruption may have a small, temporary warming effect, since water vapor traps heat. The effect would dissipate when the extra water vapor cycles out of the stratosphere and would not be enough to noticeably exacerbate climate change effects", but makes no mention of 0.5°C warming. I have not found that figure elsewhere - that is not to say it does not exist, but if you cannot provide a source you should withdraw it, particularly as you appear to be attributing some of this year's climate events to that eruption.
@@Tengooda I read that NASA article as well and was surprised but I was trying to find the source for you. Geologyhub YT channel mentioned the warming effect but I read it from another source. It could just have been scientists speculating without actual measurements. I know academically I should retract the statement but I was hoping someone else could have pointed it out. 400,000 tons of water vapor 60 km high in the atmosphere definitely made a disturbance to the jet stream and climate - the question is how much disturbance? I do remember the article mentioned the water vapor will remain for several years to almost a decade.
This is pretty obvious to people my age(38) than the new generation because they are not used to seeing 5 ft of snow like I did when I was 5 years old living in Wisconsin the whole time. I don't barely see even a foot of snow almost all winter now
Wisconsin here, too; plus I grew up in the Rocky Mountains. When I was a kid, we used to go drive past a glacier on Sunday drives. Even my aunt, who was married at the base of that glacier in the 1970's, didn't realize that it has melted away entirely now. Why doesn't she see it? Because in Utah, climate change has consequences so dire and immediate that you can't really acknowledge how bad it is--it's too awful to admit. Even as the snowpack that used to last until the end of August is now gone in June, and the fresh water source of that melting snow is gone with it.
I moved to Wisconsin for the omnipresence of water, and the weather--including the cold winters. In the 14 years since, winters have only twice been close to the historical norms. People of our generation came along when the science was strong but the anti-science had just begun. When you have the genuine science come along at the right time to absorb it, and see the impacts shortly after, I think it may have made us more likely to be immune to the propagandists.
@@paintedwings74 What many don't want to realize it this planet is everchanging. There have been ice ages that have lasted thousands of years. I might not be ready for one myself, but I am definitely at better odds than many are of surviving whatever mother nature throws at us
Pretty obvious? It recently snowed in Texas.
@@jesperlykkeberg7438 Thats why it's called climate CHANGE and not global WARMING. The climate is experiencing more extreme shifts in weather.
Once you understand that, you'll see how one area could be having warmer winters with less snowfall, while another area could be having colder weather with more snowfall
If you are genuinely curious, there are answers to that. Warmer winters mean a slower, wavier jet stream (more similar to the summer jet stream). The atmospheric motion of the jet stream keeps the arctic and subarctic air masses largely separated from each other. With the increased “waviness” of the warmer jet stream, you get large southward dips that carry arctic air into southernly latitudes. So the average air temperature is warmer, the arctic air is warmer, and the winter jet stream is weaker. However the now-warmer arctic air is still far colder than the air that would be typically above, say, Texas. So you get extreme winter events south of the arctic, while temperatures warm and ice decreases in the arctic.
Yes, let's completely overturn our current economic model based around fossil fuels (for which there is no currently adequate replacement) and cause mas starvation and death due to disrupted food and energy production and sharp decline in living standards all for MODELING which is really just interpreted and quite possibly "massaged" data foretelling things that may or may not happen. If the west's living standard is reduced by a significant margin, imagine what they would due to the impoverished peoples in the developing world!
The Earth is a massively complicated (but adaptive) system, and it thrived and survived long before humans with massive disruptors. To think that humans could have such an impact is the height of hubris. Now, this is not to say that the Earth might not be warming or that we shouldn't develop alternatives to fossil fuels, BUT we need to ensure those systems ACTUALLY EXIST and CAN BE IMPLEMENTED BEFORE we cut ourselves off from the only fuel source which can currently sustain the global economic model. Furthermore, the idea of anthprogenic climate change has not been proven, and there isn't actually a consensus of scientific opinion (despite media and political screeching to the opposite). The scientists who present alternative data and opinions are slienced and shunned because they present what is not popular. Science is the quest for truth, and anything else is propaganda and biased in furtherance of an agenda, not the truth.

Papers predict . . . While in reality, the Arctic ice pack is much above the mean size going back over one century. Most studies start at 1979, which is near an all-time maximum
Nice to hear from someone who is thinking about this. I was a Teen in the 1970's in Montreal Quebec and my personal experience was that this was a very cold period. A good friend got frost bite on both of his heels. The media and the experts then were predicting that we were entering a new Ice Age. In I think 1974 I spent a whole summer at our cottage and almost everyday it never got much above 65 F. I used to complain that I was purple when I swam. Again bloody cold. Later in the early 80's I worked in Calgary Alberta. On my first winter there we had a 6 week long stretch where the weather every night and morning went below minus 45 Farenheit. I went out for a jog and my ear lobes froze solid. It was a great time to start a temperature series and declare it to represent the norm.
You should point out that we have Arctic sea ice surveys going back to the 1920s and even satellite data back in the early 70s. The only reason they start at 1979 is because, as you point out, 1979 was a maximum in what surveys since the 1920s tell us is a cyclical pattern.
"the Arctic ice pack is much above the mean size going back over one century". Liar.
@@grindupBaker ad hominem attacks are the refuge of those who disagree with the truth. Another fact is that the Arctic currently has more ice than 6000 years ago according to Science Daily (10/20/08) source, “Geological survey of Norway“. They go on to state that the Arctic may have been periodically ice free during that era
But he explained the 1979 start point by saying that's when the measurements became accurate. Therefore they can safely ignore all the prior data.
That's one way to get rid of inconvenient contrary data. The trick, of course, is to say it with a straight face.
Seven decades of weather and climate engineering, but lets ignore that.
@Doug Kenney CO2 emission is a form of climate engineering, intentional or not.
I wish we could just go back to another snowball earth! (When ice core samples for that period show approximately 25,000ppm CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere).

Yeah this guy now has caught the CC bug. I presume every video from here on end will be more hysteria about the end of civilisation.
The summer of 2011 we had 60 days of triple degree heat and then the lowest sea ice level was recorded in 2012. This year with all the global heat waves going I’m placing my bet that 2023 Artic sea ice will be the lowest Ever recorded or no sea ice at all next summer. Hope next year I’m not saying I told u so.
Ha, ha, ha…. I’ll take that bet.
While I should probably find this terrifying i find it rather fascinating. It somehow reminds me of learning about ancient history.
humanity has destroyed the very branch of the tree it lives on through stupidity, now it is too late to make things right
Climate change makes me think of the Fermi Paradox, which questions why-- given the size and age of the universe-- we haven't seen any sign of any other life out there. One possibility is that all civilizations destroy themselves before achieving interstellar travel. I wonder if we are about to be an example of that. Another possibility is that we are actually alone. Life is just that special and rare and unique.
@@nsbd90now And not eternal.
I was a research assistant at university for a scientist studying arctic plants. I logged plants in her study area into a database. I was amazed that most of the plants were the same as those I knew in the Pacific Northwest. In miniature. I expect many could grow bigger in warmer temps. I like the thought, anyway.
Anyone that wants to better understand warming periods should definitely check out Tony Heller. He covers the medieval warning period and even drought conditions and river levels.
Tony Heller is backed by the fossil fuel industry. He stands to gain from any inaction done towards climate change. It has already been proven that the medieval warming period was very localized over Europe. Current global temperature and co2 levels are near exceeding the maximums in all of human history, all in the span of just a decade.
Heller is a liar.
I mean, we're almost certainly looking at a 3 Centigrade increase -- trying to calm ourselves by still talking about what would have happened had we done the right thing 20 years ago is just preventing people from seeing what the future will really be like.

And yet the climate models have consistently over-predicted warming and have repeatedly been revised to show less warming. It was an interesting hypothesis back in the 80s but has since become a political hoax.
@@kirklaird8345 that's not actually the truth.
Initially the models over predicted, bevarar there were buffets like the pema frost. And now we're running out of buffers, and it's turning the other way.
We know how much energy the sun insolates. We know how much the carbon blanket keeps. It's very basic science. Predictions from the 1800s were confirmed by satellites in the 80s. The only question is where that energy gets stored. And the more carbon we add, the faster we store more of it
Where do you think it gets stored?
@@jonwatte4293 They are gaslighting you. CO2 is a greenhouse gas, but the wavelengths it absorbs and then emits are nearly totally absorbed. Adding more CO2 has very little effect. The models used the assumption that the forecasted slight increase in temperature due to CO2 would cause a significant increase in water vapor content in the atmosphere. This "accelerated feedback" mechanism was the main driver of the forecasts of increasing temps but it didn't happen. They have had to repeatedly revise climate models to account for the fact that temperature just hasn't increased like it was supposed to. In fact climate scientists cannot model cloud formation - which, after the sun's radiation, and our own atmosphere is the most important factor in climate.
You should ask yourself this: If climate science was "settled science" then how did they overlook the so-called buffers you mention and why have all the forecasts been wrong requiring models to be repeatedly revised? The Maldives are still not submerged. The oceans are still rising at the same rate they have been rising for 150 years (about 1" per decade) and the Arctic summer sea ice is still there - and it hasn't changed much since 2006.

So why is the arctic ice still there if it has been melting much faster? It was predicted to be completely gone durings summers many years ago. How does this fit in with collapsing far more quickly than previous models?
No it wasn't. There were like two models that had the most extreme outcomes of the most extreme scenarios showing that maybe, possibly, if we get extremely unlucky, the Arctic could melt in the 2010s.
I know it's hard to understand, but something having an absurdly low chance of happening doesn't mean it 100% will happen.

There you can also check that the icecurve is just normal, compared to the mean values between 2004-2013. There's no collapse what so ever in sight.
About Greenland, there has been a small loss of ice during the latest 20 years, about 200 Gton /year. (1 Gton is eq to 1 km3 of water). It can sound a lot, but if it continue to do so it will take about another 2000 years for all ice on Greenland to melt. In the meantime perhaps the weather will change.

Just a few short months ago the absurdity of this method of presentating flawed (or corrupt) data as mathematical fact was illustrated on the outbreak of Covid 19. The early models having been proved wildly wide of the mark on casualty numbers, were remodelled time after time in a vain effort to get near to real world statistics. Governments are intentionally destroying national economies in pursuit of the great reset using climate models. This is all theoritical, or junk, science.

As regards the melting of Arctic Ice, the records nearly always seem to start in 1979. Strange that, considering it was a year of record extent for Arctic Ice. Even so, data from NOAA (2022) show winter (March) ice coverage has hardly changed since '79, and that the summer (September) coverage trend had stopped declining since 2007. How inconvenient! Didn't someone predict in 2007 Arctic ice free by 2010, or 2015, or 2013, or in 5 years? Or was it in 2008 the Arctic ice sheet would melt away. Also predicted in 2008 North Pole ice free in ... 2008 ... or in 10 years. 2009 prediction: Arctic ice free in 2014. 2012 prediction: snow will be gone by 2020. And 2013 star prediction: Methane catastrophe in 2 years because of ice free Arctic. 2018 prediction: zero chance of permanent ice in Arctic by 2022. It's still there, and it's stopped shrinking.
If you consider global sea ice cover, it was basically flat from 1981 to 2008, rose until 2010, stayed level until 2015, dropped until 2018, and then rebounded almost all the way back to the 1990-2000 average. Nobody predicted theses changes, nor can they explain them. The changes have no relationship to the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere.
The climate crisis/emergency/apocalypse is make-believe.
The ice is getting a lot thinner though. So the total quantity or mass of ice is decreasing fast.
@Brent Summers Thin ice is more conducive to the maintenance of bear and walrus populations. Despite all the predictions, the Arctic remains increasingly biologically productive. Even if the ice were to disappear in the summer, this would not cause the extinction of polar bears. The Arctic has been ice-free during the Holocene climate optimum, and during the previous Eemian interglacial (both of which were warmer than current). The polar bears and other fauna were present during these events, and neither of these (obviously) resulted in their extinction or the obliteration of Arctic ecosystems.

@@steve-r-collier The sulfur dioxide moves into the stratosphere and combines with water to form sulfuric acid aerosols. The sulfuric acid makes a haze of tiny droplets in the stratosphere that reflects incoming solar radiation, causing cooling of the Earth's surface.

About time to recognize that those ‘doom mongers’ are proven to have been pretty much spot-on I should think. Especially with Kipling (or his parody) in mind.
Yet the forecasts (there have been many over the decades) that the Maldives would be submerged by 2020 hasn't happen (in fact they are slightly bigger than they were decades ago) and the Arctic summer sea ice, which was supposed to disappear by 2014 is still there - pretty much the same as it was in 2006.

Sad they don't talk about Antarctic sea ice gains.
that is because it isn’t increasing. But it does appear more stable. Global temperature changes have been more apparent in the northern hemisphere probably because a far greater proportion of the southern hemisphere is ocean.
The Arctic has been cooling for the last 8000 years. A little up and down for the last 100 years, but generelly it is still cooling. We are near the end of the inter glacial periode.
"The Arctic has been cooling for the last 8000 years. A little up and down for the last 100 years, but generally it is still cooling. " No, the Arctic is rapidly warming, with one town in northern Norway now averaging SEVEN degrees F warmer than the long-term average.

Half the Arctic ice mass that was there in the 1970s has melted away, the permafrost is melting and collapsing at a dangerous and destructive rate, etc., etc. With all due respect, you must not be reading the scientific evidence because scientists are very scared about the rapid warming going on in the Arctic.

Thankyou for your work. It is comforting to hear someone speaking the facts ina calm and rational manner.
Here in Puerto Vallarta MX, the first wave of winter change hit us. El nino is here. I was first a tourist and became a resident in this region. When young it was dry with a rainy season, now we move into much more rain as the changes occur. Hurricanes were rare, int 4 years we have been directly hit by two severe cyclones and one with torrential rains 2 days later. I have been in the rain forests of Brazil Colombia, Phillipines and Thailand. That rainfall was the first time I feared for my life and my neighbors. If a person fell on their back the rain was the equivalent of fire hoses in the face. We live on ridges of the sierras and wet air moves in from the Pacific, meanwhile those same neighbors drive Ford Rangers and Chevy Suburbans as daily cars. We need a way to change their desire to be that potentate in the covered palanque travelling alone. The desire for personal transportation is overwhelming in a nation that needs good public transportation.
When someone talks about "Mother Nature" we know we are in the presence of a great and gifted scientific mind.
There is absolutely no point in looking to future technological solutions ( the search for which I am in favour of) while we continue to ignore the simple solutions which we already have. Here in the UK we are wasting 20% of our energy just heating leaky housing. We desperately need to insulate our housing. We continually fail to do so. If we won't take the simple measures, which would actually benefit people, what hope is there of taking the harder ones which will come at a cost . INSULATE NOW!!!!!!!!
Thank you for mentioning a future fraught with destruction as not being a place to bring children. The human overpopulation concerns alone are devastating.
Thank YOU for recognizing overpopulation. Too few recognize overpopulation as a general problem, let alone a driver of climate change.
We wouldn't be wrecking this planet as much if our population hadn't soared out of control upwards of 8 billion. The Earth has been bent and twisted every way we, humanity, have demanded to support our disgusting numbers. In the end, it becomes starkly apparent that we are a cancer to all other life on Earth.

@@paulwelch4643 IDOT !, clearly you have no knowledge of the climatic history of the planet not even our current interglacial !
Only the ignorant and gullible would be taken in by such obvious propaganda.
Sea levels are currently ONE TO TWO METERS LOWER than 4500 years ago, if ALL the Arctic ice cap and Greenland sea ice shelves melted TOMORROW it would raise sea levels by ZERO MILLIMETERS , thats because they already displace their full volume of water.
Only 8000 years ago there was NO summer Arctic sea ice and almost NO Greenland land ice temperatures during the Holocene Thermal Optimum were 6-8 Deg C warmer than now.
For most of the period of human civilization temperatures were WARMER than now.
It's easy to say that isn't it! Another ignorant view.
you hate mankind. you're nothing but an asshole.
The next "new" research will probably show just the opposite. Remember in the 70's when we were about to enter a new ice age?
Oh look, someone hasn’t done their research
Larger oceans and seas means that the Earth will be capable of retaining more latent heat. More latent heat contained in our oceans means dramatically higher global cloud cover than we have today. More cloud cover means that there will be more overall precipitation. This may result in more snow cover over higher elevation areas. It also bodes well for deflection of the Sun's light and heat away from Earth. What may be lost in the Earth's potential to deflect the Sun from the melting of the Arctic ice cap and the ice sheets in Greenland may be more than recovered elsewhere. Also, we really don't know for certain what sorts of effect an ice-free Artic would have on ocean currents. Everything at this point is just speculation. The only thing that is certain is that global warming is much more conducive to life overall than the opposite.
I almost suspect you've been paid for such an ill-informed opinion.
So, how many past dominos have we passed, and still not encountered, despite so much pessimism?
Don't be so impatient! We're getting there exponentially.
*Looks at snowball earth predictions of early 2000s, with scientists saying "It's hard to predict short term changes, but these long term changes are certain"*

Small error correction at 3:30 "the 1 million square kilometres that's scientifically defined" S.B. "the 1 million square kilometres that's scientifically and entirely-arbitrarily, meaninglessly defined". Possibly not needed but just in case a listener who is as thick as pig shit comes along in the next few years and Thinks, owing to their staggering stupidity, that the Arctic Ocean knows whether there's 1.1 million square kilometres of area with ice lumps floating in it or 0.9 million square kilometres of area with ice lumps floating in it around the North Pole and decides to "Do Something Special For Earth" at that moment. The Arctic Ocean's brain doesn't know to do that. I've discussed this with the Arctic Ocean.

There is plenty of new desert here for climate deniers to bury there heads in, but climate change Is real and most of present and predicted effects are unwelcome.
A better appreciation of these studies and commentaries is provided by Tony Heller and the CDN.
Tony Heller, has never had one climate science class in his life, yet he presumes to refute the findings of the world’s 15,000 climate scientists from 180 countries.
Heller’s target audience isn’t scientists who he knows will easily demolish his nonsense. His target is laymen who will be wowed by his so-called scientific prowess. This is how propaganda works. Target an audience that knows less than you do.
CDN was created and managed by John Robson and he is the Executive Director of CDN. There is no scientifically investigative corporation, institution or company or actual scientists that funds or is responsible for the CDN organization. This means this organization has no roots tied to real scientists who research both sides of the argument. The only loose connection to an actual educational institution or any form of science is with the Christian Augustine religious College in, Ottawa Canada where Dr. John Robson teaches history.
@@hosnimubarak8869 Google is a bitch isn’t it? Go back to sleep. Keep forking out your carbon taxes.

Some have become extremely wealthy, the rest of us much poorer and looking into the abyss of dark, very cold winters, bug burgers and confinement to our 2 mile radius life (already being experimented with in Oxford and Canterbury in the U.K.). Still, continue to fret about the threat to polar bears (thriving), the threat to the Great Barrier Reef (thriving) and the threat to the Maldives (investing in more reclamation for tourist hotels and airports). The Obamas and Pelosis are so concerned about rising sea levels they invest in seaside mansions and private beaches. The tropical forests of Malaysia and Indonesia are being destroyed by the lucrative biofuel industry devastating the habitats of the Asian tiger and orang-utan. Child slavery thrives in The Congo to satisfy your desire to drive electric vehicles, you smug, delusional lot. One 300 ft 3mw wind turbine requires 335 tons of steel, 4.7 tons of copper (grows on trees), 3 tons of aluminium (also grows on trees), 2 tons of rare earth elements (more demand for child slaves) and 1200 tons of concrete. And recent studies indicate a potential serious impact on sea life and coastal currents by offshore wind farms. The top energy provider in Germany is in the process of removing a large wind farm to enable the expansion of a coal operated power station to provide a more reliable source of energy this winter. But not to worry, the new generation wind turbine will be 1000 ft tall. Be careful what you wish for. And, finally, ice cover in the Arctic Ocean and Greenland is perfectly normal for the time of year, but the Antarctic is recording record low temperatures. And by all means continue to ignore the sun.

Okay, I'll bite. What about "the history of climate/weather reports from the late 19th and early 20th centuries".
Predicting an ice free Arctic in 10 years are we? Are you sure you want to make this prediction?
Greenland has seen above average ice gains in 4 out of the last 6 years. 540 gigatons in 2017 and 500 gigatons in 2018 if my memory serves me right. This is way above average.
Antarctica recorded it's lowest temp in recorded history. Coral reefs in Australia are at a 36 year record high. How can this be with a warmer world?
Beware of making predictions. The internet is forever!
In 2017, the cumulative daily melt area for the Greenland ice sheet was the smallest since 1996, yet still higher than any year between 1979 and 1994 (1995 was a high melt season). The 2017 melt season was also notable for its late melt events, one of them occurring on October 29 to 31, tied for the latest for any year in the satellite record. Between September 2018 and August 2019, the Greenland Ice Sheet set a record for ice loss (532 ± 58 billion metric tons). Between September 2019 and August 2020, the rate of ice loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet was much lower (293 ± 66 billion metric tons), but still above the 2002-2020 average measured by GRACE. Average ice loss for Greenland over the full 18-year record was 268 ± 14 billion metric tons per year. You facts are simply wrong.

2018 - 500 gigatons net gain which is above average...
2019 - 180 gigatons net gain which is 200 gigatons below the 1981 - 2010 average of 380 gigatons.
2020 - 375 gigatons net gain which is 5 gigatons below average...

So many new coal power plants being added around the world these days. Governments are issuing very confusing messaging around this, unfortunately.
Ironically a 40% decrease in sulfur pollution from Coal reduction also heats up Earth another 1 degree Celsius due to the Aerosol Masking Effect being twice as bad as previously thought. This is not mentioned in the news of course but any science search will show this truth.
The message is clear. The globalist know the climate story is nonsense. They are allowing third world countries to use coal because it is about defeating the West. That is all it os about.
