Americans already feeling effects of climate change, says report

Americans are already feeling the effects of climate change, according to a leaked US report.

Since 1980, the average temperature in the US has risen significantly, with the past few decades the warmest for 1500 years.

The report, written by scientists from 13 federal agencies, is still awaiting approval from the Trump administration before it can be officially published, but a draft copy was obtained by The New York Times.

"Evidence for a changing climate abounds, from the top of the atmosphere to the depths of the oceans," say the authors in the draft report, with thousands of studies contributing to an irrefutable body of evidence.

"Many lines of evidence demonstrate that human activities, especially emissions of greenhouse (heat-trapping) gases, are primarily responsible for recent observed climate change," they say.

The report points out that the ability to attribute some extreme weather events to climate change is improving. It says there is relatively strong evidence that humans contributed to the European heatwave in 2003 and the record temperatures in Australia in 2013. Globally, it is extremely likely that humans are responsible for over half the mean temperature increase since 1951, the authors say.
But I thought it was snowing in Texas. confused

We can't call it "climate change" anymore in this admin because of feelz. We call it "weather extremes" or something. Because if you pretend it's not happening, then it's not really happening apparently.

"I'm not a believer in man-made global warming. It could be warming, and it’s going to start to cool at some point." -Trump 2015

Rob, just stop. You do not want an actual discussion on this lol. None of you do and I can tell just by the circle jerk that immediately started. Nobody wanted to engage, they just wanted to leave snotty remarks.

Which is fine, the board is near dead, but lets not deny it.

Apparently globally we are all feeling the burn with climate change!

"The report finds that in past few years Americans have witnessed “record-breaking, climate-related, weather extremes as well as the warmest years on record for the globe.” This is largely a result of global average annual temperatures increasing by more than 1.6 degrees Fahrenheit since 1880.

On top of this, it is very likely that if humans stop emitting greenhouse gases today, the planet would still warm by an additional 0.5 degrees Fahrenheit by the end of this century. Compare this with temperature records from the Vostok ice core, which points to an approximately 8 degree Celsius swing from glacial to interglacial times, and you can see why a couple degrees makes a large difference."

What did I say that was wrong? The OP posted this, and the only thing they made is a comment about snow in Texas. Was that meant to stir legit discussion?

Then you came, whined about what climate change is being labeled as, then took a shot at Trump. Can you explain how that was, in any way, an attempt at legit discussion over this? I am genuinely curious how you will explain this.

But in reality: my first post directly to you wasn't "whining" or "attacking Trump", while your first post to me was an attack :/

Translation. Works in a Climate Controlled Office and thus is
taking advantage of His WHITE PRIVILEGE!

Bashy is a Hypocrite and thus a large part of the problem.

SHAME ON HIM!

He is solely responsible for killing Mother Gaea! !

Lol no, you came in whining about different labels of climate change. You truly feel your comment indicated a legitimate discussion was to be had? You can't be that delusional Rob.

The first thing you said was about naming it. "We can't call it climate change" lol. You started off whining.

I was speaking in regards to my first post to you, which I clearly said, I didn't attack you :/

The "extreme weather" re-labeling is a fact though, you can look it up :/

Honestly, it seems like you're trying your best to derail the thread and pick a fight :/

I believe Rob is talking about an article I saw about Trump not allowing people to use the term "climate change." I guess because he doesn't believe in it (at least not the man-caused version). That's pretty cool, right? Our fearless leader is disallowing certain language. That's great. Not Orwellian or subjugating at all.
