0.000004%

And the continuous rise has been for 0.0000003%

The Earth is doing what the Earth does, 99% of everything that has ever lived on this planet is now extinct.

Our time on this planet has been minuscule. The last dinosaur lived closest to us than it did to the first dinosaur.

To think that it’s us and cows that are driving climate change, and that we’ve managed to do it in the last 260 years.

To think We’ve managed to destroy the planet in the last 0.000006% of the planets existence, is very efficient, combined with a lot of Hubris.

The planet will be just fine, life on Earth will continue for another 5-8 billion years. Our descendants may, or may not, not be part of it.

Re: Climate Change
 

It's the speed that's the problem. Most warming periods, at least since life has been around, were so gradual they are imperceptible in a human lifetime. Even in a civilisation lifetime.

The last increase took about 20,000 years to rise 6c. We've done that 1c in about 100 years. It's dramatically faster.

Re: Climate Change
 

It is also that us humans have spread out and populated areas that are vulnerable to small climate changes and have also put in boundaries so populations can't simply relocate.

Re: Climate Change
 

There have also been periods of more sudden climate change, the Little Ice Age being one of them.

Re: Climate Change
 

This was a regional phenomenon which only affected the North Atlantic Ocean and neighbouring land masses. Its effect on global average temperatures was extremely modest and really not sudden at all in comparison to what’s happening now.

Wikipedia is not a reliable source for citations elsewhere on Wikipedia, or as a source for copying or translating content. As a user-generated source, it can be edited by anyone at any time, and any information it contains at a particular time could be vandalism, a work in progress, or simply incorrect.

Re: Climate Change
 

OK. Here’s the northern hemisphere dataset presented by the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change.

The same dataset is presented by the Open University:

At some point it’d be great if you could ditch the tiresome quips and engage with the subject.

Re: Climate Change
 

Wikipedia is a reliable source, edits are monitored, and vandalism or incorrect information generally gets fixed pretty quickly, especially on popular subjects/pages. Unless you can prove otherwise, there is no reason to believe any information is incorrect. If you can prove otherwise, you can of course edit/correct it yourself.

That article is simply to discourage using another wikipedia article as a citation.

Re: Climate Change
 

So if i don't like the "truth" i can edit "the truth " to reflect the truth as i see it

Re: Climate Change
 

Yes, you can be as big an ass as you want.

Re: Climate Change
 

Yes. And then you can watch as people who are suitably qualified undo your edits. Often within an hour.

All decent Wikipedia entries, especially in the sciences and traditional arts subjects, are well referenced and maintained by people who know what they’re doing.

You could try editing it to reflect your truth but you’d just end up looking like a clown.

So, just because the graphics are nice and clear and it obviously reflects data used by respected organisations, here’s the global temperature graph once more, demonstrating that the ‘little ice age’ was a mere polar bear’s fart compared to the rapid warming occurring now.

Incidentally, the Wikipedia graph uses a dataset first presented by Prof. Ed Hawkins, climate scientist at Reading University. I’d take his “truth” over yours on this topic any day. ;)

Why don't you check the sea levels at Cleethorpes beach ( whilst it's still there)?

Well

The word “could” working overtime in that headline.

Re: Climate Change
 

It supposedly was being swallowed up a long long time ago,but it's still here covered in yorkies every day in the summer

Someone posted a thread (POLL) on City-data asking ppl which is more real. Climate Change or the Bible and I picked CLIMATE CHANGE on the poll because the bible is made up BS for control!!!

The last I looked the poll was tied 9 to 9
