Climate change is a hoax, bro.

I mean it seems it might be exaggerated, and the source might not be humans, but the weather is really strange the last few years. The fact the climate has changed seems pretty undeniable. Even the OP article shows that, with "just 5 inches short of 30-year snowfall record"

My friend, I am in complete agreement about variation, and changes on climate. That is common. I'll try to find you a great JRE where a guest cites multiple excellent historical examples of decades long increases and declines in global temp since the dark ages.
The social and economic impact of the changes. For example:.

  • Farming in Greenland
  • Growing wine grapes in England (pre-GMO).
  • Longer Summers ushering in the renaissance economic boom.
  • The boom in great cathedral construction that swiftly ended from a cold period; and increased starvation, etc.
  • I forget the specifics of the cold trends (lack of advancement is the boring norm)

I'll try to find the link.

On a related tangent; The tremendous water erosion on the back of the Sphinx, and Sphinx enclosure walls suggests that these structures after many thousands of years older than the Pyramids, as there are no signs of water erosion on the Pyramids...

The tremendous water erosion (+3ft deep in solid stone) suggests that the Sphinx was likely surviving as an ancient structure long before the end of the last ice age (13,000 years ago)....

It's worth considering details such as these as we ponder climate change, and the survivability of the human race. Even if humanity had to start from scratch (as it clearly did)... :-/.

I love leaving these little nuggets....

TB.

So then you agree climate change is happening

Yes.

The thermodynamic system that Earth resides in, is definitely not in a perfect steady-state condition.
