A little more detail. I marked 4 of the 5 largest extinction events. Crossing the purple line shown in the diagram resulted in extinction events throughout Earth's past. This is about 5C from where we are today. If we cross that threshold, the feedbacks might become overwhelming.

@JarvisAeneas Climate change exists in periods of human history. There are minimal human-effects on it; and the ones that do exist are tiny.

@GerardAMorrow Yet the Permian extinction occurred after GHGs were released by volcanoes and warmed the Earth 10C.

Scientifically CO2 is a greenhouse gas, so it increase/decrease will cause temperatures to rise/fall. But it doesn't. There is no relationship between CO2 and temperature anywhere in the scientific records. The IPCC reports are written by the bureaucrats - I once spoke via messaging to a scientist from a UK university during the writing of the an IPCC report, he told me the scientists, "hold the pens" but don't write the script.
Diablo@cicero6666

The WG1 does contain good science. There has been selective gate keeping and the IPCC has had its own scandals. It does not show there is a problem with climate caused by CO2. The bureaucracy above it ‘processes’ the information to produce consistently alarmist advice for policy makers.

@lomaxx If you opened a Roth IRA for you and your spouse and put the max in an index fund each year in the Roth. After ten years you might have half your money in the Roth which you can withdraw tax free in a few ways. You could also help your kids add to their Roth- no estate taxes.

This is where the “tax the rich” crowd lose me. Say I earn 90k a year and in 2027 I inherit $200,000 I invest that $200k and after 10 years in the stock market it’s now worth $400k If I sell it and realise the $200k capital gain, what the govt and the “tax the rich” crowd are saying is that I should be taxed as if I make $290k every year. Now if I try and split that CGT income across 2 people I’m “greedy” and avoiding tax But if I sell down in 4x $100k lots over 4 years and minimise my tax, that’s ok and nobody bats an eyelid - but it’s the same principle.

@aaron_lubeck @jasonc_nc I federal job guarantee is locally managed in municipalities and nonprofits, but funded by the Feds. What jobs can your local govt not afford to pay? What jobs can local charities not afford to pay? It would revitalize small town America.

@DavidJHarrisJr This recent push to abolish property taxes is to increase profits for residential rental corporations. Property tax is a use tax to prevent the concentration of wealth. If the tax is eliminated, the wealthy will end up owning it all.

Ron DeSantis: “[People] have their homes paid off and they bought it 30 years ago for a certain amount. Now they're being told it's worth so much more and they have to pony up more and more money. It's almost like they have to pay rent to the government, just to be able to enjoy their property. That's wrong.” Thoughts?

Imagine that building a house by hand take 10 people Then somebody invent the shovel and now it takes 3 people What happens next? Do 7 people lose their job? No The number of houses increase by 3x Why? Because everybody wants more houses, one in the city, one at the beach, one in the mountains, etc etc The demand for houses is infinite. Now replace “shovels” with “AI” and “houses” with the “economy” and you will understand why there’s not gonna be any mass unemployment caused by AI

Cutting to the chase, sea level is rising at about 1 foot per century. If you honestly feel you cannot cope with that, then you have just 100 years to move up 12 inches. Or move up 3 feet and be safe for 200+ years
GO GREEN@ECOWARRIORSS

Not only is sea level rising, but it’s rising faster every year Since 1960, 43% of global sea level rise attributed to thermal expansion of water Melting ice : 27% came from mountain glaciers, while 15% came from Greenland Ice Sheet and 12% from the Antarctic Ice Sheet eos.org/research-and-d…

isn’t it incredible that McDonalds sold their billionth burger by 1963 and their 80 billionth by 1990 when apparently no one was ever buying fast food?

Sandy Tregent@SandyofSuffolk

Just so you know. Boomers didn't have fast food. Except fish and chips. Boomers didn't have ready meals. Except Vesta beef curry. Look it up. Boomers didn't have colour TVs, front loading washing machines, central heating or holidays abroad. Boomers didn't have babymoons or baby showers nor did they go on stag or hen weekends. Boomers didn't go to restaurants. Except on birthdays. Boomers didn't have new clothes every year, every season. They made do and mended. But Boomers had a fabulous time in the 1960s to 1980s because people were friendly, respectful, dignified and hardworking. Boomers also had law and order and a judiciary who punished ALL criminals. Boomers were happy with their lot. Yes. I'm a Boomer. Just so you know.

@Pr0gman @Mark___Taylor Gasoline is cheaper in NJ with full service with employees pumping your gas at $16 per hour than PA self service pumping it yourself. It’s not the labor costs.

@Mark___Taylor Hear me out. So I have a bad habit called KFC. With the app you can save a ton. In MA a $10 special cost me $20.. over the border in NH it dropped back to $10. Higher minimum wage has a huge impact. KFC isn't a career that you raise a family on, it's a starting point.

You’re delusional if you think current inflation is because of the minimum wage. You can’t hardly find a job for 7.25 an hour because inflation is so high nobody even offers it. I live in a low cost area and McDonalds is paying $12 an hour.
Lady Demosthenes@LadyDemosthenes

When the mob was raging and rabbling for higher minimum wage, they were warned “this will raise costs.” “No!” they screamed, “that will never happen.” Which brings us to the present where the mob is raging and rabbling about how expensive fast food is… Surely no correlation.

We've given $3,000,000,000,0000 to Africa, and it has led absolutely nowhere. We could have had multiple colonies on Mars by now. At some point, we need to realize that Africa is a deep hole in the ground that will never be filled by our money.

Billionaires don’t work a billion times harder than teachers or farmers. You don’t earn a billion dollars through hard work. That money comes from the ruthless exploitation of underpaid labor, where a small group of billionaires amasses grotesque, unjustifiable fortunes.
