“nearly all Democrats”

Democrats know that climate change is an existential threat which can be controlled by the US  government.

The survey of 1,704 U.S. adults, which was conducted from Oct. 19 to 21, found that nearly all Democrats (78 percent) and a plurality of independents (45 percent) view climate change as “an existential threat that must be addressed now with major legislation.”

Yet less than one-quarter of Republicans (24 percent) agree. Instead, more than 6 in 10 believe, falsely, that global warming is either “not a real threat” (38 percent) or a threat that “the government has already done enough to address” (24 percent).

Poll: More than two-thirds of Republicans say climate change is ‘not an emergency’

Unfortunately, global warming destroyed the planet more than twenty years ago.

“COVID Conspiracies”

CO2 Coalition’s Newest Member Tony Heller Just Got Kicked Off Twitter for Covid Conspiracies

Twitter kicked me off after I posted this Pfizer document obtained under FOIA. Apparently Daily Kos believes Pfizer is part of a “COVID conspiracy.”

Our next-door neighbor died of a blood clot in his brain after getting vaccinated.  I wonder if Daily Kos thinks he was part of the conspiracy too?

This comes two weeks after he drained the US petroleum reserve in order to increase the supply of oil.

The DMI “Improved Model”

DMI’s explanation for why the altered the data. They claim the new model doesn’t change the relative positioning between years and primarily affects melt season volume.

“We have improved the DMI operational ocean and sea-ice model HYCOM-CICE with higher horizontal resolution and updated HYCOM and CICE code. In particular, the sea ice code has been greatly improved with meltponds, sea-ice salinity, improved thermodynamics and much more.

The freshwater discharge from Greenland has also been greatly improved using freshwater product from GEUS, which especially improves the coastal ocean currents and thus the ice transport nearshore Greenland. The model has been running continuously since September 1990.

The model has been running continuously since September 1990. Therefore, we have by December 07, 2021 updated the graphics of sea-ice thickness and volume using the new and improved data on Polarportal and ocean.dmi.dk.

The improved model setup has led to higher variability as well as less adrupt melting during the melt season, which gives a shift of approximately half a month for the time of minimum ice volume. The trend between the years is almost unchanged. Thereby, a year with a large sea-ice volume in the old setup also has a large volume in the new setup, and similar for years with low sea-ice volume.”

DMI Modelled ice thickness

The “new and improved” version put 2021 below the 2004-2013 mean, below 2017 and below 2018. The two years which saw a large reduction in December volume were 2020 and 2021. There aren’t any melt ponds in December. The 2004-2013 mean, and 2017, 2018, 2019 didn’t change significantly – but 2020 and 2021 dropped sharply.

There was very little change to the 2021 summer volume, but lots of change to the winter volume.  The is the opposite of other years and the opposite of their description of the changes.

The changes they made occurred during winter, not summer. It appears they rotated the 2021 data several degrees clockwise, which brought spring volume up and winter volume down.

The sailors are trapped in the ice because of an early freeze up, and DMI has altered the data to show the exact opposite.

The 2017 data is rotated counter-clockwise in the new version, but the 2021 data is rotated the other direction. Their changes aren’t credible and are a complete mess.
