CLIMATE BY NUMBERS

Can a tech firm help farmers survive global warming?

It was nearly impossible to drive the back roads of southern Indiana this summer without being lulled into a trance by the monotonous perfection of the cornstalks. They lined every route, forming a canopy that stretched for miles, strong, straight, and taller than any Hoosier. In late August, the U.S. Department of Agriculture stated publicly what the growers had known for weeks: this year’s crop would almost certainly be the largest in American history.

Unpredictable weather is hardly rare, or new. For thousands of years, floods, droughts, tornadoes, heat waves, and early frosts have been agriculture’s unyielding enemies. But even the most sophisticated farmer would have trouble planning for the vagaries of today’s climate.

Using standard climate science statistical techniques, I am 97% confident that Obama will reach 0% approval during March, 2017.

Scientists predict average global temperatures could increase between 4 and 9 degrees in the next 50 years due to the accumulation of industrial emissions in the atmosphere, particularly carbon dioxide, which is released by the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil

Obama says we have to prepare for global warming. Same bullshit the experts have been saying since Obama’s high school Choom smoking days.

Ellensburg Daily Record – Dec 7, 1988

WASHINGTON (UPI) — Global warming may increase the strength of hurricanes, posing a lethal threat to low-lying areas already facing inundation from rising sea levels, atmospheric scientists said Tuesday.

At a major conference on global climate change. experts said warmer water temperatures could increase the power of hurricanes by 40 percent to 50 percent. They said while maximum hurricane winds peak at 175 mph now, they could reach 220 mph by the middle of the next century.

(CBS News) CBS News is learning the Obama administration knew of the risks associated with the Obamacare rollout well before last month.
