Reuters is reporting that scientists says climate change worsened the massively destructive Colorado fire over the holidays
i wouldnt doubt that for a mnute
far too much evidence of the negative effects of global warming
You see these headlines and say WOW, Alaska! Then you look up Kodiak and see its on an island in the Pacific off of Alsaka and Kodiak's monthly highs never average below freezing, even in January and February.
You also see Ketchican Alaska, a bit further south of Kodiak had a record low on December 26th, yes the same day. "Water pipes, freezing fuel lines, freezing trees going down into power lines. It's definitely impactful to the communities," said National Weather Service Forecaster Kimberly Vaughan. "

Same people are warning we are due for more intense and more frequent hurricane and tornado activity.

most people wont b motivated to do anything or commit resources until some serious weather related event happens to their family
You mean like arsonists setting fires in the warm dry seasons. Setting fires to forests that are not maintained. You know what happens to your teeth and you don't do proper maintenance? People can control maintenance but people can not fully control arsonists.

Likely a liberal loving, college professor, climate fear monger trying to show the world how global warming is starting fires. Whoops.
MSM the entire time, including the gov of CA kept blaming global warming as the reason for the fires. Come to find out, it's one of their own.

That's the unfortunate part, KellyM_1964.
It's analogous to the anti-vaxxers that got hospitalized with covid then wishing they had not been in denial and taken the vaccine when they had the chance.
they will do squat
its almost as bad as the dummies on social media who think just one american male is running around and deliberately setting ALL THE FIRES the past 3 years in california , plus oregon , plus colorado , plus the massive canadian province BC and claiming that is the reason why global warming contributing to increases in number and scope in forest fires is a hoax perpetrated entirely by the left who want to destroy american lives
The climate warming is no hoax. The fact that man has contributed and continues to contribute is no hoax either.
The question is how the WORLD deals with it. How much can we actually change it? And what actually will change as a result of warming?
If we KNOW wildfires will be more common and contribute to global warming why in the hell are we not putting resources into PREVENTING WILDFIRES???? Why wait til they happen and then point the finger at global warming?? Political agenda is why. 
Are we going to trust the same folks who said; "We have a plan!! We will stop COVID!!!" "White Supremecy is our greatest threat". "Jan. 6th was worse than 9/11 and Pearl Harbor." Inflation highest since 1982. Store shelves lacking goods, etc. Ahhhh, not me!
Great Lakes are dropping--CLIMATE CHANGE!!
Great Lakes are rising--CLIMATE CHANGE!!!
China continues to be the WORLDS BIGGEST POLLUTER yet we ignore that. How's that supposed to work and WHY do we ignore that fact?? ANSWER; POLITICAL AGENDA.
TAKE THE F-ING POLITICS OUT AND IT MAKES NO SENSE.
We (the US) are moving to less and less green house gasses. Others are not. I am all for electric cars. Windmills need a technology boost, remind me of the first home satellite dishes, huge and expensive. Like covid lockdowns, don't force it and make things worse in other areas. Let technology lead the way.
The world's oceans saw record warming
in 2021 as climate change continues
YAHOO NEWS -
Thanks to the relentless pace at which humans are adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, ocean temperatures in 2021 were “the hottest ever recorded by humans,” according to a report published Tuesday in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences.
Since 1958, the researchers found, the world’s oceans have warmed at a steady pace. But that rate sharply accelerated in the late 1980s, warming eight times as fast as in the decades prior.
“The increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere from human activities trap heat within the climate system and result in massive changes in the climate system,” the report states.
WOW!! Eight times faster!!!
How many degrees is that? 10, 20, 30???
0.234 F

remarkable how it is very clearly accelerating

Imagine this happening now; https://www.mlive.com/news/2022/01/remembering-the-great-blizzard-of-1978-when-winter-packed-a-wallop.html
Yes, I'm so freaking old I was there. My best friend was in a 4x4 club, I had a snowmobile. Together we worked with the emergency management to help the elderly, dig them out, get them persciptions, etc.
If this happened now Biden and Kerry would be talking non-stop it is climate change!!!
19 million americans under serious winter weather alerts
thousands in ne have lost power and more to come
according to some repos on social media this is another disaster that is entirely joe bidens fault
and nancy pelosi
and Letitia James too
and CNN

Yeah, that's what the rightwingers on social media are claiming.
It's almost impossible to get home owner insurance for those of us that live on the coast in South Florida. Just today, 2 insurers sent letters to customers noting their coverage will end May 1st.
Ok, so that's a business decision based on risk. I get it.
But don't try to sell us your car or health insurance throughout the state! You're not dependable.
Newly released NOAA report suggest big trouble ahead
NOAA released an updated report about sea level rise in the U.S.
They found the sea level could rise up to a foot along the
U.S. coast in the next 30 years.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. —
“This is a global wake-up call and gives Americans the information
needed to act now to best position ourselves for the future,”
said Rick Spinrad, Ph.D., NOAA Administrator.
They said that over 20 years ago and nothing happened. Al Gore said all the homes on the coasts would be underwater. Big nothinburger

• 10-12" of sea level rise along the U.S. coast in the next 30 years
(Equal to amount measured over the last 100 years)
• More damaging flooding projected
(Tidal and surge heights to increase and reach further inland ten times more often)
OBVIOUSLY this incurs massive financial costs.
• Emissions matter! Failing to curb future emissions could cause 3.5' to 7' sea level rise by the end of the century (incurring even more devastating financial costs)
Established in 1995,
Just another large snowstorm.
