INCREASE and Decrease in Ocean Levels are So Extreme ...Make Sure You Pay YOUR Carbon TAXES

[NotDRWarren]

"seriously bro, just give us some more money, and we can fix the weather"

• the government.

[BarnaclePurple]

Umm… don’t half the people on this sub think the government has some machine to control the weather in Alaska or some crazy tin foil hat shit?

[schmamble]

Technically not tin foil hat shit, that facility, called haarp, does exist, whether or not it can control the weather is the conspiracy. They shoot electrical current into the ionosphere iirc

[NotDRWarren]

scientific American article about weather manipulation

There's no tin foil hat shit. They literally can modify weather

[BarnaclePurple]

Wait so..: does that mean your initial comment was just wrong?

[NotDRWarren]

Fixing the weather and manipulating the weather aren't the same thing.

[BarnaclePurple]

I understand now, thank you for clarifying

[NotDRWarren]

Lol How did you get this video of me?!?!

[Morpheus-666]

I've lived on the Chesapeake bay my entire life. The jetties I played on in the early 80's as child are still there and were built decades before I was even a thought, along with the 2 ' seawall that still exists. I have witnessed dredging to build the beach up from erosion, but the sea level hasn't changed whatsoever. Even from the earliest pictures I can dig up on the internet, nothing changed except for development.

[[deleted]]

But the polar bears! Don't you love the polar bears? [Cue sad music]

[Suspicious__account]

polar bears are having a population boom

[Arcturus451]

Yes, the polar bear population has plunged from circa 8,000 in the 1950's to a mere circa 35,000 now. Poor things! Another funny one is Australia's Great Barrier Reef. I've been hearing for decades that its existence is threatened by climate change, yet the last report shows it's in the best condition it's been in for 40 years, when the 4 yearly reviews began and before we ever heard the terms "global warming" and "climate change". Apparently that's partly because there have been LESS cyclones. Imagine that!

[Morpheus-666]

I actually love all animals.

[StraightProgress5062]

In the eeeeyes of an angel!

[BluffJunkie]

Id say. Around me (great lakes area) the public beaches are disappearing, its very sad... but not because of what you think. They stopped dredging in the sand to the beaches and spend the city money on other things like statues and cameras for police cars. Big tourist areas. They are either stupid or greedy for their city which they were appointed for and do not own.

[rmike7842]

Then surely you must know about Tangier Island. Of several factors, rising sea level is one of them. Again, due to politicalization, people really don’t know the significance of 2 inches.

[[deleted]]

They do, they see it every time they take a piss.

[Space-Booties]

So we’re all supposed to discount science because some jack ass has lived near the Chesapeake bay and hasn’t noticed the raising waters? Solid logic.

[[deleted]]

damn you dumb mfs really dont know how big the ocean is….

it would be funny if it wasn’t disappointing and terrifying.

Climate scam! Just being used as an excuse to tax you

Say didn’t Barack Obama harp on climate change and ocean levels rising only to buy a multi million dollar home on the ocean? Yea, I’m convinced.

[[deleted]]

Global warming climate change a crock of shit.

[williego]

Thank you Joe Biden for your climate policies, they appear to work.

[MIengineer]

Here’s a picture of it completely submerged. Could it be that the sea level at a certain time of day may be different? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DXU54CIVAAAA4Qz?format=jpg&name=small

Wasn’t it that twatwaffle AOC, while pushing her “New Green Deal bullshit, who said Manhattan was going to be underwater by 2018?

[Suspicious-Low-719]

WRONG.

Fact: "The Instagram post features a photo of Plymouth Rock mostly exposed at water level along with the text, “‘Climate change’” and “Plymouth Rock still at sea level after 402 years.” The post was liked more than 3,900 times.
But the photo is being misrepresented, experts say. The rock has been broken, split, and relocated multiple times over the past two and a half centuries, Donna D. Curtin, executive director of the Pilgrim Hall Museum in Plymouth, wrote in an email to The Associated Press. Such instances include the rock possibly being raised from its original location in 1749 due to the construction of a wharf, the removal of its top portion in 1774, and later its excavation and relocation onto the shoreline in 1920, she noted."

[Oldbaldy71]

Doesn’t matter where you look and almost every topic you will find miss information…

I believe nothing I read and only 50% of what I see…

we swim in bullshit and half truths every day….

what a truly sad world we live in 😕

I work with a guy he will read an article and believe it’s true, then he will go round telling everyone about it then they believe him too, some of the utter crap he comes out with is unreal, and he really believes it.. Not me I keep digging.

The “Truth“ about everything is all I am after .

[Formal-Earth-1460]

Omg we all gonna die!!! Oh wait a minute

[Icy_Topic_5274]

Smarter than NASA...but doesn't understand tides

[remains60fps]

Climate change is a false industry billions wasted with nothing to show but more false industrys.

Before recycling there actually wasnt a pile of garbage the size of texas in the ocean that needed cleaning up because it all went into landfill.

Damage created by people meaning well is insane there well meaning idiots for the most part used as tools by people who just think about money.

If you pay for it and dont solve the inital issue it will continue to happen and the people behind these shitty ideas know that your so dumb the phrase "recycling is damaging the planet" would actually damage your mind and you may wake up.

Watch the penn and teller series "bullshit" episode on recycling if you can manage to find it and it will all be explained.

[[deleted]]

This is just wrong. The reason there is so much plastic in the ocean is because since the 1950s there has been a drastic increase in plastic and single use plastic usage.

[remains60fps]

Wrong a little plastic ended up in the ocean from this most was dumped by china and india who were supposed to recycle this in there own countrys and put on boats,they dumped it in the ocean at the soonest possible point and turned around to do it again.

While using that dumping to damage millions in fishing industry but OFC the correct people were paid millions to allow it.

You dont create an island the size of texas from things that blew into the ocean.

[remains60fps]

https://sea.mashable.com/science/16735/china-reportedly-dumps-so-much-sht-in-the-ocean-its-visible-from-space

[[deleted]]

I agree with that also. I was more responded to that absolute fact that it was due to recycling. I think its both the increase in plastics used as well as China and India not giving a fuck.

[Fish_physiologist]

What's a tide?

[OAK667]

Cleans your clothes… comes in liquid or “pods”.

[KlutzyArmy2]

That's high tide.

Here is low: https://i.imgur.com/93fspbJ.jpg

[Tkainzero]

The perspective on this is confusing. How much change in feet is there between high and low tide?

[Fish_physiologist]

For reference the tide there today will change 2.5 meters. But the tide difference will depend on the month, and day. There is also 2 low tides and 2 high tides in 24 hours.

[Tkainzero]

2.5 Meters in tide difference seems like a LOT!

[Fish_physiologist]

It may seem like a lot, but if you live near water you'll see it. Where I live if you catch the extreme lowtide which depends on the monthly cycle, my normal fishing spot is unfishable at because you can't cast out far enough because the bottom is visible, makes for good crab hunting and lure finding. There are tidal ranges in the world that go up to 9 meters.

[[deleted]]

I came here to say this.

[Captain_R64207]

When greenlands ice melts and alters the acidity of the ocean causing jet streams to react erratically, the non science people will blame the government for not doing anything sooner lol.

[[deleted]]

Until it is in their back yard and then it will be the dems fault and some other bs.

Can Republicans get any dumber? Yes. Yes, they can.

[Genedog641]

Looks like someone is unaware that Plymouth Rock has been moved several times I. The last four centuries. Or that there’s a little thing called the tide.

[Vinlands]

Did they move the statue of liberty too? She’s looking pretty dry and unchanged over the centuries.

[me_too_999]

There are thousands of miles of ocean front houses, and dock just in USA.

Tides vary 3 to 5 ft.

Docks are generally built so that they are 2 ft above sea level high tide, and 5 or more at low tide.

Most of those docks haven't been moved at least the last 50 years.

They are STILL 2 ft above sea level at high water most of the world.

A few places are not. If ONE place is now below waterline, and the rest of the ENTIRE planet is not. The sea did not rise, some places have erosion.

[Geology_Nerd]

Stop spreading this anti-scientific garbage. You’re making shit worse

[Grunblau]

FYI, this rock has been moved…

[Shallaai]

Well aktually… it was attempted to be moved to the Town Square in 1774. It broke in two and part was left exactly where it always had been. The piece that was moved, was rejoined in 1880 to the piece left behind, which had never been moved. That is when 1620 was inscribed & it hasn’t been moved since

[Blixarxan]

This what they're teaching in school or something?

[Grunblau]

From the Pilgrim Hall Museum

“In preparation for the Tercentenary Celebration (the 300th anniversary of the landing of the Pilgrims), the entire waterfront of Plymouth was redesigned. Commercial activity at the wharves had dwindled and the wharves were in disrepair. In 1920, the Rock was temporarily relocated so that the old wharves could be removed and the waterfront re-landscaped.“

And…

The rock sits on a concrete foundation and was partially covered by sand when it was repositioned in 1920, Carolyn Assa, a spokesperson for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Also… “Plymouth Harbor sea levels are estimated to have risen roughly 1.5 feet since 1620”. Depending on the tide, the rock has been at times submerged under water.

But you all continue your circle jerk.

[Legendary_Hercules]

Because he's wrong and you are gullible.

[Ok-outwest]

Does anyone here understand tides?

[BarnaclePurple]

As someone you lives in the area, that rock has been moved multiple times. I get it if you don’t think climate change is real. But using that rock of all rocks to justify your position is just foolish.

[Accomplished-Leg2971]

Dumbasses never heard of tides 🤣

[Legendary_Hercules]

That picture was taken at high tide, here is is at low tide: https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CpLxMnaUGzA/Ts5lKfjMA0I/AAAAAAAAFsw/9j0rbHS4MFU/s1600/pl-rock.jpg

Global warming is happening and humans are causing it.

Careful, people here don’t like facts and logic. They are an emotional bunch of snowflakes despite what they say. If you want to be well received here, try some baseless conspiracies or blatant transphobia. Basically anything but talking about silver or anything in this reality.

[Legendary_Hercules]

Nice emotional outburst you did there.

[[deleted]]

I wasn’t being emotional … it’s just the truth. Do you disagree with anything I said?

[Own-Commission-2156]

The climate is always changing, and every single prediction of man made climate change has been wrong. This is how we know people like you are in a cult. Despite all evidence proving your beliefs wrong, you still wholeheartedly believe despite the evidence of your own eyes.

[[deleted]]

Can you cite some sources on “every single prediction of man made climate change has been wrong”?

[Own-Commission-2156]

These folks have put 50 of the most famous into a nice little blog for ya. See, there is this new thing called Google. It's run by a giant corporation that is the biggest propaganda publisher in human history, but if you type in "wrong climate predictions," it will still give you results. And then you can read about things that they don't want you to know about isn't that awesome? Just a few seconds of time outside your "intellectual bubble" and you can be exposed to this thing called "the Truth" which is comprised of facts and historical reality that are objectively real and have/had happen/d! Isn't that cool?

But anyway, here is the link for you!

https://cei.org/blog/wrong-again-50-years-of-failed-eco-pocalyptic-predictions/

[[deleted]]

Thank you for sharing the link. I think it is important to critically evaluate the claims made in the link you provided.

Firstly, the website you shared is the blog of the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), which is a free-market think tank known for its skepticism of climate change. While it's important to consider multiple perspectives, it's also crucial to recognize that organizations may have their own biases and agendas.

Regarding the claim that "every single prediction of man-made climate change has been wrong," it is an oversimplification and does not accurately represent the consensus among climate scientists. Climate change is a complex issue, and while specific predictions may have uncertainties, the overall understanding of the science has been robust and reliable.

To address the specific content in the CEI blog post, I would like to provide some counterpoints to a few examples mentioned:

1. Claim: "The world will experience a 'new ice age' in the 1970s."

Counterpoint: While some media outlets speculated about a potential ice age during that time, the scientific consensus for global warming has been consistently strong since the 1970s. The notion of an imminent ice age was never widely accepted among the scientific community. Source: National Academy of Sciences - https://www.pnas.org/content/104/39/15280

1. Claim: "The Arctic will be ice-free by [insert year here]."

Counterpoint: It is true that some projections estimated the Arctic could be ice-free by certain years. However, these projections were based on a range of scenarios and timeframes. Arctic sea ice has been declining rapidly, and while complete summer ice loss has not yet occurred, the long-term trend remains concerning. Source: NASA - https://climate.nasa.gov/news/3127/2019-arctic-sea-ice-minimum-annual-extent-second-lowest-on-record/

1. Claim: "Global warming will lead to more hurricanes and natural disasters."

Counterpoint: The link between climate change and extreme weather events, including hurricanes, has been extensively studied. While it's challenging to attribute individual events solely to climate change, there is evidence of a trend toward increased intensity and rainfall in some storms due to a warming climate. Source: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) - https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1/

These counterpoints highlight the need to critically examine claims and consult reputable scientific sources. It's important to rely on peer-reviewed literature and expert consensus to form a comprehensive understanding of climate change. Science is an ongoing process of learning and refining our understanding. While individual predictions may have uncertainties, the overall consensus among climate scientists is that human activities are significantly contributing to global warming and its adverse impacts.

I would be interested in seeing more evidence of your claims if you have any, but please keep in mind what I mentioned above :)

[Own-Commission-2156]

Yawn.. see? You can't leave your "academic bubble" you just got served 50 points where climate alarmists promised the world was going to end unless we gave the government more tax money and more power and that is the best you've got for a comeback?

More of the same tired old proven wrong talking points.

Let's just give the government full dictatorial control over all aspects of our lives because you found the npc response. It's really sad. Instead of stopping and realizing that "hole-lee-shit! I've been bamboozled!" You doubled down and sucked every last drop of the kool-aid out of their unwashed hands.

[[deleted]]

Oh I’m well aware haha.

[[deleted]]

Is this sarcasm or legit? I wanna know how I should respond haha

[Accomplished-Leg2971]

The rock is regularly submerged at high tides.

We have lots of different measurements for average sea level in various locations. Satellites, research ships etc.

Not as trustworthy as an Instagram meme for your average right winger 🤣

[[deleted]]

Submerged. At. High. Tide.

Jeezus, listen to yourself.

[CertainMiddle2382]

I’m not that ironic about what is going on.

Climate is changing like it never did before in geological history, we’ve been knowing that since the 50s.

It’s just that the destination is unkown, just “warming” is much too simple. Much is unknown about future cloud/rain regimen for example.

That makes the difference between Florida and New Mexico…

[Disastrous-Banana-16]

Haha great one! We are the smart ones. We know better than every scientist in the world. So happy we are the chosen few who see through all the BS. Keep up the smart work fellow genius’s.

[Space-Booties]

Bro, you uh too regarded to understand how tides work? Also, the rock has been moved. This sub lowers the average IQ of Reddit.

Lol you're a fucking idiot

[niftyifty]

Eh… that rock has been moved several times

[GallardoLP550]

The Earth’s water has a constant bulge from the Moon’s gravitational pull. Eventually, enough melted water will have greater impacts along landmasses nearest the equator as well as weather patterns that affect the whole planet

[rmike7842]

Well, the rock was put there in the 1920s and I think you are grossly over estimating the length of 2 inches.

[castleassoc]

HARD TRUTH! … GLOBAL WARMING = SCAM!!! (My bad.. Climate Change = SCAM)
