Excellent presentation. I agree with everything Dr Curry tables. her book should be prescribed reading for every single person in the entire World. Maybe that way, people would be far more careful about how they vote and we all get governments that are really interested in humanity and not their own self indulgent well being.
Dr Curry is a great summariser of all nformation and data which is freely available on the Internet. She is also a very accomplished scientist in her own right. Her conclusions about climate are spot on. It is a terrible shame that the main stream media ignore her and many other eminent scientists about the true nature of our climate. Please continue to keep up the good work. There will be a reckoning when the majority realise they have been scammed.
Curry's position is, "Well, it's not all that bad." Unfortunately, it is. The United States cattle herd has shrunk down to 1951 levels due directly to drought. It's only going to get worse from here and it's the fossil fuel companies fault. Actually, no. I'm as guilty as everyone else. I just purchased a 2023 F150 to haul equipment with. The problem? The batteries aren't here yet. In another 6 years or so, I'll probably be trading that truck in for an F150 EV.

@@Cspacecat The US cattle herd has shrunk because Bill Gates has bought all of the land in order to implement his policy of banning meat consumption. As for drought, is it as bad as the 1930's when thousands left their farms and trekked to Florida? Was that caused by CO2?
@@Cspacecat While we contribute, it's more like p1ssing in the Pacific and then saying we caused the tsunami. The reality is that the planet goes through a climate optimum roughtly every 110,000 years. We're a bit overdue. The last one was 125,000 years ago (more or less), called the Eemian. 110,000 years before that, La Bouchet. 110,000 years before that, Purfleet, and just over 100,000 years before that, the Hoxnian optimum. We know thanks to the Vostok ice cores. Most of the planet's history is of a cold world, and cold worlds don't encourage life. When our fossil fuels were laid down, CO2 was at 7,000 ppm. Today it's at 430 ppm, which is really rather low. When our primate ancestors turned up, it was at 1,000 ppm and that's the level we pump into greenhouses because it's the level plants evolved to eat. Just before we started warming, CO2 was at 180 ppm and plants were starting to die. At 160 ppm photosynthesis stops, so you can say goodbye to oxygen. At 150 ppm all plant life dies and the planet shortly after. We're getting better, and CO2 saturated at around 300 ppm, so the temps won't go up much more until we hit about 800 ppm (it's logarithmic, so it has to double), and you won't notice much. We've contributed something, but our less than 4% contribution to the 0;.04% that is atmsopheric CO2 (over 96% is entirely natural) isn't driving this. It's entirely natural forces. Now calm down, chill out a bit, and focus on mitigation and finding cheap, reliable energy alternatives, because after we hit optimum the temperature will drop to -6 to -8 for the planet, and if we've not got cheap energy that doesn't require fossil fuels (both wind and solar require coal) and isn't affected by subzero temperatures and 8 foot deep snow drifts, a lot of people, animals and everything else will die. We need REAL answers, not this neo-Marxist BS.
@@socratesrocks1513 The Eemian interglacial temperature maximum was about 125,000 years ago. We reached the Holocene interglacial maximum about 7,000 years ago. "Today it's at 430 ppm, which is really rather low." The normal CO2 concentrations for the last several million years have been 180 ppm during glacial periods and 280 ppm for interglacial periods. "We've contributed something, but our less than 4% contribution to the 0;.04% that is atmsopheric CO2 (over 96% is entirely natural) isn't driving this. It's an entirely natural force. " You've done a rather good job of cherry-picking. You do realize all this information is readily available on Wikipedia? The other thing you didn't know is I'm an engineer whose uncle was a physicist. Due to my uncle, I started college at 14. In the 1850s, Eunice Foote, an amateur scientist and activist for women's rights, and John Tyndall set the foundation for our modern understanding of the greenhouse effect. The fossil fuel industry had a clear understanding of the effect of its byproducts back in the 1940s. They started building their oil rigs to compensate for sea level rise back in the 1950s. My uncle worked for the oil industry. I understood the effects of greenhouse gases back in the 1960s. The human species has been modifying the climate for the last 10,000 years by cutting trees which blocked the uptake of CO2, and started farming which released CO2 and CH4 into the atmosphere. This is what prevented the climate from quickly cooling off which normally occurs after all interglacial maximums. Instead, we've had an extremely stable climate during this time, allowing our civilization to prosper. So, no. There's nothing natural about any of this. There will be a direct ratio of CO2 concentrations to temperature until we hit a tipping point and then temperatures will accelerate.
An efficient, pragmatic approach to a problem that exists. Folks who live in tornado alley do so for several reasons, land cost, and fertile soil only part of the draw. We know that springtime brings rain and the warm moist air flowing north out of the Gulf that often is confronted by a cold mass of air coming south from the snow fields and result in tornados. We dig basements, and storm cellars to provide a secure spot to save what we consider most precious to us. We don't stand outside and protest the storm or throw handfuls of money at it. I am happy that scientists such as Judith Curry are willing to state the obvious to the religious fanatics on the climate doom side. I wish it would do some good.

There are livable solutions. If not, they have nothing to worry about. Right?
My body temperature can vary by 2 degrees in a few hours and that is normal, yet the UN is worried about average global temperature change of 1.5 degrees 25 years from today. That is undeniable stupidity.
That extra degree determines whether large portions of the human population will be able to grow crops on marginal land. It's ok though. The price of food will increase 50% over the next 50 years or so and the human population will drop 2 billion in population. Technology is going to advance at a certain rate. The damage is in the works regardless of what you or I believe.
@@Cspacecat It certainly will if we get rid of fossil fuels and thus have no fertilisers, no diesel to bring in the crops, no reliable energy production for greenhouses, and we don't make an effort to extend and develop desalination. But hey, let's wreck art and say we're doing it 'for the planet' because that gets people on our side! (morons!)
@@Cspacecat The amount of food grown in the world has steadily, and dramatically, increased (much faster than population) for many decades on a negligible increase in planted area. There is no indication that will change. Our World in Data has an excellent chart showing all three ( area, output, population) together. There is significantly much more food available now that at any point in recorded history. By the way, CO2 is plant food, not pollution. Check the chemical equation for photosynthesis. There is an article titled “Carbon Dioxide Fertilization Greening Earth, Study Finds” on the NASA website to back that up. It also says climate change is responsible for 8% of the INCREASED greening of the earth. Stop getting propaganda from MSM hysterical headlines and check actual facts.

Thousands of climate scientists disagree with you. And their opinion is based on scientific data supported facts. Carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are increasing at an alarming rate. Unfortunately, ignorance of science doesn’t make you invincible to the effects.
Earth's climate, beyond human understanding due to it's complexity and extraordinary length climate cycles which are much longer than we can possibly know. Money channels are the future of channelling wealth into political groups, of which the UN, IPCC, NOAA and governments have become addicted to. When you look very closely at the money movement, you can see that the climate is the least of their concerns, it's all about the money and securing more and more funding.
The proposition in Dr Currys book and summarised in this presentation is obviously the way to go. Which rational person could possibly disagree? Unfortunately, climate change and net zero has been completely hijacked both politically and financially, such that there are significant vested interests pushing the unscientific, un-risk-assessed, emotive approach that facts and rationality will, I fear, not be able to overcome. The alarmism will only end when ordinary people revolt by refusing to comply with current climate policies, where they can, and when climate sensitivity is proven to be much lower than currently IPCC assumed, and its clear the average global temperature shows no correlation with or causation by co2.
the difference between cool and warm summers is around 5C without people noticing and they're talking about 1.5 or 2.4C which is nothing.... warm climate is beneficial
planet used to be much warmer, CO2 used to be around 2000 ppm and life on earth flourished in such climate... plants grow better in higher CO2 concentrations, periods of warm climate were periods of prosperity and increased food production...

This seems like a good summary of her book, which contains thousands of references. It's a great resource, although a bit of a dry read. I would, however, recommend it to anyone who is seriously interested in this topic.
Judy Curry's book is CRAP. "thousands of references" yes, references to OPINIONS and not DATA or the PHYSICS or the MATH. Curry and her "book" are both HORSESHIT. A check in the box for climate gate conspiracy.
Excellent concise summary of the real state of the discussion. The principle driver of all the climate nonsense is political rather than proper science, but there is seemingly no shortage of 'gun for hire' scientists willing to support the politics rather than the science.
And as humanity plunges off the avoidable cliff people like you will still be saying "it's just natural cycles but funny how the climate alarmists were right but for the wrong reasons".
A little more concentration on the monetization of carbon via taxation, carbon credit trading and associated derivatives might have been helpful. The greed, lust for power and the depopulation aspects are, in my opinion, the primary drivers behind climate alarmism and associated scientific and political skulduggery. This would include not only the 'adjusting' of raw data to match poorly executed models (instead of the proper scientific method of changing the hypothesis when it is confounded by data), and the blatant stifling of any other research or discussion by choking off of grants and vilification of any scientist having the temerity to disagree with the politicised narrative. Prof Curry being an excellent case in point. Hats off to her and the many others now speaking out despite the evil machinations of assorted politicians, maniacal billionaires, bought and paid for 'scientists' and the likewise mainstream media hacks who have now successfully managed to propel themselves to the very bottom of the 'least trustworthy people' listings (previously held by lawyers, realtors and corrupt politicians). All crowing on and shamelessly virtue signalling they are 'saving the planet' whilst stuffing their pockets with ill gotten booty and attempting to install global totalitarianism asap. Show me the money and I'll show you the incentive as someone has quipped. In my world the jails would be overflowing with lot of them ...
Knowledge of what is not known, is also knowledge. An attitude that motivates a quest for better understanding and certainty about what is, and what to do. Thank you for your brave heart Dr. Curry.

The only issue I have with the video speaker is that the person talking is a provable imbecile simply because she stated "If Antarctica starts to lose ice it will be because of volcanoes" and only an actual imbecile could genuinely have that thought in their "brain".Apart from that slight wart it might be all great for all I know.
When individuals or groups are in pain, their cognitive resources might be more directed towards stopping the pain rather than engaging in thorough, balanced decision-making. This leads to simplistic solutions that seem to address the pain but fail to tackle the underlying issues comprehensively. The challenge, therefore, lies in exposing how truth is created. Reducing pain is an extremely deceptive mechanism as it rewards becoming instantly calm, even as we speak.
During the Great Leap Forward in China under Mao Zedong's leadership from 1958 to 1962, there were numerous unrealistic agricultural experiments and policies. One such experiment was based on the concept of "close planting," where it was believed that planting crops like wheat very close together would lead to massively increased yields. The idea was that the crops would support each other, allowing them to grow denser and supposedly even enabling a person to walk on top of the densely packed plants. However, this method, along with other misguided agricultural innovations of the time, led to widespread crop failure and was one of the factors contributing to a devastating famine.
Dark matter phase transitions could be a primary climate driver. If the solar system passes through an area of higher liquid dark matter content the planets cores would all receive more heat due to increased phase transitions thus heating the earth from the inside out. This could be controlled comparatively cheaply. Heating of the planet from the inside out would result in : Increased ground temperatures Increased sea temperatures Increased nighttime temperatures Increased seismic activity Increased earthquakes We are currently passing through the S1 dark Matter stream which, as it is going the opposite direction around the galaxy was described as a dark matter hurricane.

Yes adaptation! So all we have to do is make sure, by 2060, that ever person in the world who lives in the tropics, has access to air conditioning. So, on the days that it’s too hot, they can go inside and turn the air conditioning on, so they don’t die of heat stroke. Brilliant !!
Large areas of the world do that anyway, the climate as always changed and always will and man has always adapted, cold areas where you can't live without heating will no longer need to use so much energy, every 21,000 years the Sahara Desert greens over nothing man does will change that.
In this instance, the adaptation needs to be in the direction of the generation of more power from all fossil fuels as humans are a tropical species and much more deaths are due to cold than heat. The periodic cooling has already commenced, prolonged minimal sunspot activity with large planet alignment, and will last until 2035+. In the meantime, we should build numerous modern nuclear fission generators in geologically and politically stable lands all over the earth for the time when the coal, oil and gas deposits become unworkable.

Thank you, Dr Curry, but may I ask who were the persons in your audience at this lecture? Are any of them likely to be able to influence future policy-making decisions? I fully agree with your overall message, but forgive me for saying that your delivery was less than dynamic, which is a shame, because this is a message that needs to be heard.
Again with this false claim - if you're going to wheel it out again, at least provide some evidence. Also acknowledge that, in this speech, she is referencing the IPCC's reports and looking at the political choices - she isn't arguing about climate science. So some climate scientists might disagree with her political analysis, but did she include any scientific opinions that they would disagree with?
@@loz6441@loz6441 I'm not referring to the politics, that all opinion. It's the science that she misrepresents. All climate scientists, except the odd outliers like Curry, think current warming is caused by human activity, that its dangerous and that's it's urgent to cease it's causes for the wellbeing of humanity. There is debate about how much, how fast and how bad - 2C or 4C, 1m of sea level rise by end of century or 3m, 100 million dead or 1 billion etc. BTW the 97% figure was an old study. It's more like 99.97 but it depends on how the questions are asked and wether those asked are actually climate scientists.
@@wheel-man5319Curry says almost nothing about the science. It's all conjecture about the politics. "The science demands that we reduce CO2 emissions to prevent bad weather". So what about sea level rise, ocean acidification and unsurvivable heat waves. If the AMOC (aka the Gulf Stream) shuts down (this is looking increasingly likely), I wouldn't call that "bad weather".
And this is not caused by the approach of the coming galactic current sheet? I think you are all a bit off the mark, there are recent changes in all of our solar system planets, look around.

I did not hear any remarks about "tipping points" . Paul Beckwith and Hanson both emphasize that an ice free arctic will happen within 20 years. This is guaranteed to happen based on the well documented trends of the reducing area of the summer minimum of arctic ice cover. The summer ice cover is also measurably thinning. This means that the ice cover will suddenly disappear causing a sudden and drastic increase in the amount of heat being absorbed into the arctic ocean. Furthermore scientists that study permafrost are concerned that the rapid rise in temperature could cause a sudden and rapid melting of permafrost causing a "methane burp". Methane is short lived (30 years) but has 80 times the warming impact of CO2 per unit. The methane burp could add significantly to global warming within a year after "the burp". These risks are the elephant in the room that Curry does NOT talk about. Why not? Serious climate scientist such as Beckwith and Hanson put these risks at the top of the list. Curry needs to explicitly talk about these risk to be fully credible.

"We've contributed something, but our less than 4% contribution to the 0;.04% that is atmsopheric CO2 (over 96% is entirely natural) isn't driving this. It's an entirely natural force. " You've done a rather good job of cherry-picking. You do realize all this information is readily available on Wikipedia? The other thing you didn't know is I'm an engineer whose uncle was a physicist. Due to my uncle, I started college at 14.
In the 1850s, Eunice Foote, an amateur scientist and activist for women's rights, and John Tyndall set the foundation for our modern understanding of the greenhouse effect.
The fossil fuel industry had a clear understanding of the effect of its byproducts back in the 1940s. They started building their oil rigs to compensate for sea level rise back in the 1950s. My uncle worked for the oil industry. I understood the effects of greenhouse gases back in the 1960s.
The human species has been modifying the climate for the last 10,000 years by cutting trees which blocked the uptake of CO2, and started farming which released CO2 and CH4 into the atmosphere. This is what prevented the climate from quickly cooling off which normally occurs after all interglacial maximums. Instead, we've had an extremely stable climate during this time, allowing our civilization to prosper. So, no. There's nothing natural about any of this.
There will be a direct ratio of CO2 concentrations to temperature until we hit a tipping point and then temperatures will accelerate.
An efficient, pragmatic approach to a problem that exists. Folks who live in tornado alley do so for several reasons, land cost, and fertile soil only part of the draw. We know that springtime brings rain and the warm moist air flowing north out of the Gulf that often is confronted by a cold mass of air coming south from the snow fields and result in tornados. We dig basements, and storm cellars to provide a secure spot to save what we consider most precious to us. We don't stand outside and protest the storm or throw handfuls of money at it. I am happy that scientists such as Judith Curry are willing to state the obvious to the religious fanatics on the climate doom side. I wish it would do some good.

My body temperature can vary by 2 degrees in a few hours and that is normal, yet the UN is worried about average global temperature change of 1.5 degrees 25 years from today. That is undeniable stupidity.
That extra degree determines whether large portions of the human population will be able to grow crops on marginal land. It's ok though. The price of food will increase 50% over the next 50 years or so and the human population will drop 2 billion in population. Technology is going to advance at a certain rate.

There is no indication that will change. Our World in Data has an excellent chart showing all three ( area, output, population) together. There is significantly much more food available now that at any point in recorded history.
By the way, CO2 is plant food, not pollution. Check the chemical equation for photosynthesis. There is an article titled “Carbon Dioxide Fertilization Greening Earth, Study Finds” on the NASA website to back that up. It also says climate change is responsible for 8% of the INCREASED greening of the earth.

Earth's climate, beyond human understanding due to it's complexity and extraordinary length climate cycles which are much longer than we can possibly know.
Money channels are the future of channelling wealth into political groups, of which the UN, IPCC, NOAA and governments have become addicted to. When you look very closely at the money movement, you can see that the climate is the least of their concerns, it's all about the money and securing more and more funding.
Drivel
The proposition in Dr Currys book and summarised in this presentation is obviously the way to go. Which rational person could possibly disagree? Unfortunately, climate change and net zero has been completely hijacked both politically and financially, such that there are significant vested interests pushing the unscientific, un-risk-assessed, emotive approach that facts and rationality will, I fear, not be able to overcome. The alarmism will only end when ordinary people revolt by refusing to comply with current climate policies, where they can, and when climate sensitivity is proven to be much lower than currently IPCC assumed, and its clear the average global temperature shows no correlation with or causation by co2.
the difference between cool and warm summers is around 5C without people noticing and they're talking about 1.5 or 2.4C which is nothing.... warm climate is beneficial
planet used to be much warmer, CO2 used to be around 2000 ppm and life on earth flourished in such climate... plants grow better in higher CO2 concentrations, periods of warm climate were periods of prosperity and increased food production...

A little more concentration on the monetization of carbon via taxation, carbon credit trading and associated derivatives might have been helpful. The greed, lust for power and the depopulation aspects are, in my opinion, the primary drivers behind climate alarmism and associated scientific and political skulduggery. This would include not only the 'adjusting' of raw data to match poorly executed models (instead of the proper scientific method of changing the hypothesis when it is confounded by data), and the blatant stifling of any other research or discussion by choking off of grants and vilification of any scientist having the temerity to disagree with the politicised narrative. Prof Curry being an excellent case in point. Hats off to her and the many others now speaking out despite the evil machinations of assorted politicians, maniacal billionaires, bought and paid for 'scientists' and the likewise mainstream media hacks who have now successfully managed to propel themselves to the very bottom of the 'least trustworthy people' listings (previously held by lawyers, realtors and corrupt politicians).

The only issue I have with the video speaker is that the person talking is a provable imbecile simply because she stated "If Antarctica starts to lose ice it will be because of volcanoes" and only an actual imbecile could genuinely have that thought in their "brain".Apart from that slight wart it might be all great for all I know.
When individuals or groups are in pain, their cognitive resources might be more directed towards stopping the pain rather than engaging in thorough, balanced decision-making.
This leads to simplistic solutions that seem to address the pain but fail to tackle the underlying issues comprehensively.
The challenge, therefore, lies in exposing how truth is created.
Reducing pain is an extremely deceptive mechanism as it rewards becoming instantly calm, even as we speak.
During the Great Leap Forward in China under Mao Zedong's leadership from 1958 to 1962, there were numerous unrealistic agricultural experiments and policies.
One such experiment was based on the concept of "close planting," where it was believed that planting crops like wheat very close together would lead to massively increased yields.
The idea was that the crops would support each other, allowing them to grow denser and supposedly even enabling a person to walk on top of the densely packed plants. However, this method, along with other misguided agricultural innovations of the time, led to widespread crop failure and was one of the factors contributing to a devastating famine.
And where does this pain come from? How much of it is imagined or self-inflicted, while CO2 is used as a scape-goat?

Dark matter phase transitions could be a primary climate driver. If the solar system passes through an area of higher liquid dark matter content the planets cores would all receive more heat due to increased phase transitions thus heating the earth from the inside out. This could be controlled comparatively cheaply.
Heating of the planet from the inside out would result in :
Increased ground temperatures
Increased sea temperatures
Increased nighttime temperatures
Increased seismic activity
Increased earthquakes

Yes adaptation! So all we have to do is make sure, by 2060, that ever person in the world who lives in the tropics, has access to air conditioning. So, on the days that it’s too hot, they can go inside and turn the air conditioning on, so they don’t die of heat stroke. Brilliant !!
Large areas of the world do that anyway, the climate as always changed and always will and man has always adapted, cold areas where you can't live without heating will no longer need to use so much energy, every 21,000 years the Sahara Desert greens over nothing man does will change that.
In this instance, the adaptation needs to be in the direction of the generation of more power from all fossil fuels as humans are a tropical species and much more deaths are due to cold than heat. The periodic cooling has already commenced, prolonged minimal sunspot activity with large planet alignment, and will last until 2035+.
In the meantime, we should build numerous modern nuclear fission generators in geologically and politically stable lands all over the earth for the time when the coal, oil and gas deposits become unworkable.

I fully agree with your overall message, but forgive me for saying that your delivery was less than dynamic, which is a shame, because this is a message that needs to be heard.
Virtually all climate scientists disagree with Curry's point of view.
Again with this false claim - if you're going to wheel it out again, at least provide some evidence.
Also acknowledge that, in this speech, she is referencing the IPCC's reports and looking at the political choices - she isn't arguing about climate science. So some climate scientists might disagree with her political analysis, but did she include any scientific opinions that they would disagree with?
@loz6441 She mentions many ideas that are politically incorrect. Her science is spot on, however.
@@loz6441@loz6441 I'm not referring to the politics, that all opinion. It's the science that she misrepresents. All climate scientists, except the odd outliers like Curry, think current warming is caused by human activity, that its dangerous and that's it's urgent to cease it's causes for the wellbeing of humanity. There is debate about how much, how fast and how bad - 2C or 4C, 1m of sea level rise by end of century or 3m, 100 million dead or 1 billion etc. BTW the 97% figure was an old study. It's more like 99.97 but it depends on how the questions are asked and wether those asked are actually climate scientists.
@@wheel-man5319Curry says almost nothing about the science. It's all conjecture about the politics. "The science demands that we reduce CO2 emissions to prevent bad weather". So what about sea level rise, ocean acidification and unsurvivable heat waves. If the AMOC (aka the Gulf Stream) shuts down (this is looking increasingly likely), I wouldn't call that "bad weather".
BTW yoy say "unsubstantiated claims". That is exactly what Curry is doing - No references or evidence for anything she says.
And this is not caused by the approach of the coming galactic current sheet?
I think you are all a bit off the mark, there are recent changes in all of our solar system planets, look around.
The electric universe, while might agree that electro static forces and the z-pinch effects are compelling in explaining the the large structure of the universe and enabling small objects to stick together. Cosmically the Milankovitch cycles and solar radiation variability are way more significant in driving climate.

So this is what becomes of a person that washed out of climate research decades ago, and went into administration when she couldn't reconcile her scientific findings with her strong political beliefs - now a full time political activist, on behalf of fossil fuels investors.

@@woodrow60 You can't refute a word I said about her or this:
She often lies about what expertise and consensus are, because her purpose is to convince folk that there is no consensus and that scientific expertise is an excuse for corruption. Such is the realty with her political agenda. She needs you to think that the research scientists are the ones who are political, not the fossil fuels interests that pay the salary of the "skeptics." She is also known for lying about Oreskes, Conway, Flannery, and Schneider because those authors identify the conflicts of interest that drive the "skeptic" attacks on mainstream climate science. It’s a fact that the short term profits of the fossil fuel industry are at risk if the findings from climate science are used to take any action to combat climate change. At least she doesn’t dismiss anthropogenic global warming out of hand.
Dr, Curry is an exellent scientist, no question. And her book is proof for that. But, she is not a good speaker. How can someone in front of a live audience give a speach by reading word for word from a scrip? Looking up only for fractions of a second. And no Q & A at the end. I'm disappointed.
Not quite shooting the messenger - clearly your demands are more important than the message.
Dr. Judy Curry is PAID via this institute by fossil fuel funding to give this "lecture" just as you heard it.
I did not hear any remarks about "tipping points" . Paul Beckwith and Hanson both emphasize that an ice free arctic will happen within 20 years. This is guaranteed to happen based on the well documented trends of the reducing area of the summer minimum of arctic ice cover. The summer ice cover is also measurably thinning. This means that the ice cover will suddenly disappear causing a sudden and drastic increase in the amount of heat being absorbed into the arctic ocean. Furthermore scientists that study permafrost are concerned that the rapid rise in temperature could cause a sudden and rapid melting of permafrost causing a "methane burp". Methane is short lived (30 years) but has 80 times the warming impact of CO2 per unit. The methane burp could add significantly to global warming within a year after "the burp".
These risks are the elephant in the room that Curry does NOT talk about. Why not? Serious climate scientist such as Beckwith and Hanson put these risks at the top of the list. Curry needs to explicitly talk about these risk to be fully credible.
blah blah blah...you're talking about the WEATHER.
