=== "CLIMATE CHANGE" (erst. "GLOBAL WARMING") DEBOONK ===

"97% of scientists agree on man-made climate change":

  • claim derived from ~12,000 papers on "climate change"
  • 7,930 had no position on the subject
  • 3,896 claimed humans contribute to "climate change" (extend of "contribution" n/a)
  • 78 said humans did not contribute to "climate change"
  • 40 were inconclusive
  • the total (7,930 + 78) 8,008 papers which did not explicitly support the narrative, were disregarded
  • ∴ 12,000 - 8,008 = 3,992 -> 3,896 ÷ 3,992 (100) = "97%"

"CO2 causes climate change":

  • CO2 as a component of total Earth atmosphere: 0.04% (400ppm)
  • total human contribution to the atmospheric CO2 since the Industrial Revolution: 3%
  • human contribution to CO2 increase as a component to total atmospheric gas: 0.0012% (i.e., 3% of 4%)
  • Conclusion: For "man-made climate change" to be believed, one must accept that a change of 0.0012% in a carbon dioxide, over the span of 150+ years, makes significant change to the Earth's atmosphere.

Potatoes; Not the answer you wanted:

Protein quality: Potatoes have a low protein content (1–1.5% of fresh weight), but the quality of potato protein is very good. The biological value of potato protein is between 90 and 100, which is higher than that of soybeans (84) and legumes (73).

Legumes contain high amounts of lectins. Peanuts are legumes.

  • Digestive Issues: Active legume lectins can bind to the cells lining the digestive tract, potentially disrupting the breakdown and absorption of nutrients. This interference with normal digestive processes may result in bloating, gas, stomach upset, and diarrhea.

  • Mineral Absorption Interference: Legume lectins have been found to interfere with the absorption of essential minerals such as calcium, iron, phosphorus, and zinc. This interference can prevent the body from effectively utilizing these important nutrients.

  • Autoimmune Response: Prolonged exposure to lectins that bind to cells for extended periods may trigger an autoimmune response in some individuals. This immune system reaction could potentially contribute to inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and type 1 diabetes.

  • Malnutrition Risk: In cases where legume lectins hinder the absorption of vital nutrients like minerals or disrupt normal digestion, there is a risk of malnutrition over time if these effects are not addressed or compensated for through dietary adjustments.

  • Gastrointestinal Discomfort: Consumption of high levels of active legume lectins, especially from raw or undercooked legumes, can cause gastrointestinal discomfort such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.

  • Inflammatory Conditions: While not conclusively proven in scientific studies yet, some theories suggest that lectins may play a role in promoting inflammation within the body, potentially contributing to chronic inflammatory conditions.

This shit is dangerous. I don't think people deserve to be made fun of because of their size, I get that, but to try and normalize being size 16 and beyond is bat shit crazy. There are so, so many negatives and zero positives. To have a convention where everyone gets together and they tell each other how great they are, how this it's natural and is just they way they are...nothing about this is sane. Medical professionals should be outraged.

The population was never this big in the past. Look at photos from people in the 60s and 70s. Everyone was a normal healthy weight and obesity was an exception. I think a lot of this comes from the crap they allow in the food in North America. The FDA is totally captured/corrupt. That whole business with Aspartame is all I need to know about them to see they are so full of shit. The paper they write their findings on has more value in it then the words themselves. The people running it should get jail time.

I'm not putting all the blame on the FDA though. People are their own worst problem. There is a complete lack of will power and accountability. I'm big into fitness and have seen many a person lose the weight. Anyone and everyone who puts forth a solid effort can do it. It's a matter of self control and determination.

Legumes are an excellent source of plant-based protein for several reasons:

Legumes are high in protein. A single cup of cooked beans, lentils, or peas contains around 15 grams of protein[2], which is nearly a quarter of the daily protein requirement for an average adult. This makes legumes one of the most protein-dense plant foods.

Legumes contain all the essential amino acids. While they are considered "incomplete" proteins because they lack sufficient amounts of certain amino acids like methionine and cystine, this can be easily remedied by combining legumes with other incomplete proteins like grains[1]. This complementary pairing creates a complete protein profile.

Legumes are a sustainable protein source. When legume plants die, the nitrogen in their amino acids is released back into the soil, serving as a natural fertilizer for future crops[5]. This makes legumes an environmentally-friendly protein compared to animal-based sources.

Legumes provide additional health benefits. Beyond just protein, legumes are rich in fiber, complex carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals[2][3][4]. Studies show that regularly consuming legumes can help lower cholesterol, control blood sugar, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease.

In summary, legumes are an optimal plant-based protein due to their high protein content, complete amino acid profile when combined with other foods, sustainability, and additional nutritional benefits[1][2][3][4][5].

There's always claims of links between various diseases and mouth bacteria.

The actual issue is that people with terrible dental hygiene tend to also not look after their health in any other way.

Cancer is caused by anything that destroys cells, bacteria, viruses, chemicals, etc. when healthy cells are destroyed your body makes new ones using DNA and the more it has to do this the more the process fucks up with mutations because radiation particles flying through hit the dna molecules and knock some off, so your body forms tumors instead of healthy new cells. This is why we all die eventually of old age too. Cell replication breaks down. Scientists have to know this, they must just do "breakthrough studies" like this so they have something new to publish.

I appreciate you sharing those notes. Now I see it is possible for pepper plants to live even longer than two seasons! The pepper plants seem to be like short-lived tropical trees.

My parents have a singular serrano plant left but it's a very productive plant, we have a hard time using up the harvests, and it's been alive at least three years now.

I have a serrano plant that's even older, but it's a tiny bonsai like plant. It's got 7 peppers and that's yuuuge for it.

And I'm trying to replace my Filipino pepper plant. That one must have been six years old before it died. That was sad, I loved that plant, but they live 3-9 years so I guess it was just its time. I don't know if this was normal but before it perished it did start putting out way more peppers than usual. A last gasp chance at propagating offspring perhaps.

So, they will eventually die, but you can definitely keep the same plants going for years.

I have read suggestions about pruning them way back before overwintering but I've never done it. And we don't exactly have proper winters.

Government "experts" told farmers, who had only farmed for generations, that they were doing it wrong, and that they could double or triple crop yields by planting seeds closer together. Those crops all failed.

They also ordered farmers to produce steel, which they had no means to produce, so they'd melt down their farm equipment into slag in order to meet their "steel" quota, which would be used to make bridges that would later collapse. But without sparrows to kill bugs, with failed crops due to government farm science, and without farm equipment, they starved to death.

NATO has become a dangerous anachronism,
which should have been dismantled when the Warsaw Pact was disbanded.

Europe should of course remain allied with the USA,
a former European colony after all,
which still shares many values with European civilization.

However, Europe must extricate itself from the USA's 'leadership',
which usually involves pointlessly mass-murdering people by the tens of thousands.

European foreign policy must stop being directed
by the 'Neocons' and/or other corrupt/evil forces
currently in control of the USA.

According to NOAA it is 1 foot in the last 100 and 6 inches of that have been in the last 30 years.

10-12 inches in the last 100 years for the US is not the same as a foot globally. Neither is it incompatible with a global mean rise of 8 inches over that time.

They go on to claim another foot in the next 30 years. This will not happen.

How do you know it won't happen?

They claimed that New York would already be under water.

No one claimed that.

They claimed that the Arctic ocean would be ice free by now.

One paper, looking at the huge drop in sea ice in the summer of 2007 projected that the arctic would be ice free by now.

"Hur dur global warming exists" is not a valid excuse.

"Hur dur sientis lighd" is not a valid argument.

It does not excuse their lies.

Science progresses by correcting errors. No one is lying. It's called finding things out.

It absolutely does not justify drastic and harmful government policies, including those that simply cost a lot of money.

Adaptation is more expensive than amelioration. So we should spend money to ameliorate. Because not doing so will simply cost a lot of money.

Global warming is not an existential threat, it is an inconvenience at best.

This is from the same school of thought that brought us "disproving claims of climate alarmists about rising sea levels" by misreporting a paper showing that sea levels were reducing the land area of islands, but some were expanding due to human land filling.

Sorry if I don't trust you, but the denialist industry puts out a lot of lies.

Controlling CO2 will not slow down global warming in any meaningful way.

I don't trust you any more. What's your best proof of that?

Except that the it is so people have been caught lying in the past

This paper was by Yuxin Zhang,Hao Li,Dong Li,Xiyong Hou,Peng Guo & Jiawei Guo. Can you point to where they have been caught lying in the past, please.

and the it's not so people are relentlessly silenced and slandered.

Funny you should mention slander, having just implied that 5 people have been caught lying in the past, without providing any instances. But who do you claim has been silenced and slandered because they said that the sea level was not rising?

The vast majority of sea level rise happened millions of years ago.

I'm not sure what that even means. The sea level rises and falls primarily with the amount of ice sheet on the planet. What happened "millions of years ago", and how are you accounting for sea level rise to say that "the vast majority" of it happened then?

That kind of sea level rise will never happen again because the vast majority of the ice caps have already melted.

There's about 80 metres of sea level rise left in the ice caps. That would displace nearly a third of the world's population. Surely that's of some concern independent of what happened millions of years ago?

The sea level rise propaganda claims that catastrophic sea level rise will happen in the near future

Can you link me to an example of "sea level rise propaganda"? I don't have a sense of "catastrophic sea level rise" or what you mean by "near future".

But when you call out that propaganda everyone starts shifting the goal posts and claiming they did not say that.

In the current example, a study showed that of 13,000 islands nearly 1000 were shrinking and nearly 800 had grown, the growth mostly due to human land filling.

And this has been reported here as "Approximately 13,000 islands around the world have increased land mass over two decades, disproving claims of climate alarmists about rising sea levels".

Explain again which side is pushing out propaganda, because I'm not seeing your point of view.

But an inch over 100 years is not significant.

Sea level rise was ten times that thirty years ago. It has accelerated about 30% since then. Currently it's rising an inch in between 7 and 8 years.

During the last ice age, the concentration of atmospheric CO2 was, on average, 180 ppm. Today it's 423ppm.

The last time it was about 4,000 ppm (which is 10x higher, not 100x higher) was during the Ordovician. That was 500 million years ago, and the surface temperature at that point was an average of 120 degrees Fahrenheit, compared to 59 degrees today.

Are you aware that before the ice age started the concentration of co2 was 4k ppm and today it is only 400 ppm?

How did we enter into massive global cooling during a time when co2 was 100x higher?

Why should the forests of Europe be so powerful as to change the world's climate? Isn't that just one of those silly "blame everything bad on white people" tropes? 12% of the world's population on 6.8% of the world's land covering 2% of the surface of the planet and it was the slow and primitive manual labor tree felling that started climate change. That sir, is absurd.

Like I said, the change due to the deforestation of Europe was tiny and not noticable by human beings without instruments. But it was measurable with modern instruments. Why Europe? Just because it was the first continent to be deforested. And losing 1% of the world's trees does change the ratio of oxygen to carbon dioxide in a measurable way.

What is the actual mechanism by which humans control the climate?

Our activities change the ratio of oxygen to carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

It has, but never this quickly without a supervolcano or asteroid in the mix.

Surely you don't claim this is a fact base on science.

What is the actual mechanism by which humans control the climate? Is it number of trees? Are you aware of the fact that there are more trees now then before the Middle Ages?

It was nothing anyone would notice without instruments, though. It's accelerated vastly since the widespread use of oil as a power source.

It's based on reading data. A combination of reading both the scientific publications directly and reading sources I trust to summarize papers without partisan editorializing.

Anthropogenic climate change is happening. It's real. The planet is warming and the oceans are rising.

It's also quite slow on the timeline of a single human life. It's not something that "hasn't happened but is going to." It's been happening for centuries and it will continue to happen, so slowly that any given individual person can barely notice it.

It's also global, and therefore our system of national governments is probably profoundly helpless to stop it.

It all just depends on how you define "catastrophic" and how you define "near future."

That's a funny game called "moving the goal posts". They define it as one thing to demand immediate and drastic action, then redefine it when it is time to show the facts. The fact is that there is nothing alarming about it. So anyone who is alarmed has been greatly misinformed. Bamboozled.

Sea levels have risen about 8 inches since 1900

Oh rly? According to NOAA it is 1 foot in the last 100 and 6 inches of that have been in the last 30 years. They go on to claim another foot in the next 30 years. This will not happen. When it doesn't happen they will move the goal posts and erase all evidence that they made these claims. And people like you will continue claiming that they are the experts and anyone who does not believe them is (enter every slander and insult). The "authorities" are liars. They claimed that New York would already be under water. They claimed that the Arctic ocean would be ice free by now.

"Hur dur global warming exists" is not a valid excuse. It does not excuse their lies. It does not justify continuing to believe them and demand that everyone believe them. It absolutely does not justify drastic and harmful government policies, including those that simply cost a lot of money.

Global warming is not an existential threat, it is an inconvenience at best. The institutions that we used to rely on to give us the facts have been corrupted and turned against us to implement horribly destructive programs that benefit the oligarchs at the expense of everyone else. Controlling CO2 will not slow down global warming in any meaningful way.
