WHERE'S ALL THE "EXTRA" GLOBAL WARMING COMING FROM? METHANE!!! Only 1% compared to CO2, short-term Global Warming Potential/Global Temperature Potential is 120 times greater (Paul Balcombe et al). End result, EQUAL contribution to atmospheric heating! A slowly METHANE BOMB!

@RogerCoppock What about the immediate-term for CH4 warming effect, and the "short-life" of about 10 years? Decaying at about 8% per year, means a huge replacement flow, that does not seem to be mentioned or accounted for... Thank you, cheers. Roger

Table #2 of esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/aggi/aggi.…, says 2024 total forcing of all GHGs was 3.539 W/m^2. Over the area of the Earth, that is 1,558 Megatons TNT per hour. The total yield of the world's nuclear weapons = ~4,000 MT. THEY COULD ONLY POWER THE ANTHROPOGENIC GHE FOR ONLY 2.6 HOURS!

“Methane could be a development accelerator. Especially for countries in the 🌎south.But we require the right management tools, the infrastructure needed to verify/account for the amount of methane we have.” @Fatima_Denton (Director, UNU-INRA) @WeDontHaveTime @ClimateCrisisAG

@RogerCoppock Please do not use a straight line through data that may not be linear. Use a power, exponential or other curve to look for non-linera correlations. Temperature is one, methane another and likely CO2. Thank you Then project it forward 10, 20 or 40 years. It will likely scare you

Let me fill you in on history, Peter. 1712 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcomen_…

@bob_fedderly @JohnRustad4BC Hi Bob. 3 of 4 Nordic countries increased GDP, without extracting fossil fuels. BC can emulate the leaders, or Norway, who chose fossils, and environmental destruction.

@JohnRustad4BC With respect, there are ships leaving the west coast of BC laden with LNG, propane and oil, with much of that production going to countries that are new customers. With a bit of time we will be less reliant on the US and price differentials should improve. How is this worse?

So much for “elbows up.” Canadians want and need leaders who are willing to stand up to the United States—They thought they were getting that with Mark Carney. As it turns out, Pierre was correct and Canada is now in a worse position than before. Here in BC, we also have a leftist government that preaches “elbows up” but then sends our jobs and taxpayer dollars overseas, instead of building Ferries in BC. Under the BC NDP, trade reliance on the USA has shot up, all while forgoing any diversification. As a result, we sell our natural gas to the Americans for a massive discount. It makes no sense and it makes Canada weak! Should provincial Conservatives have the privilege of forming government in BC, we will prioritize action instead of virtue signalling. We will create jobs and incentivize business in BC. This is how we stand up to Trump.

@ThomasDigby1 Why not re-introduce fish, aeration to restore eco balance?

Who's gonna help me #FreeLostLagoon? Urgent need to reconnect to ocean and re-create intertidal estuary. Photo last friday.

@WxNB_ @RogerHallamCS21 Have methane emissions increased?

A weather station in Storforshei, Norway, on the edge of the Arctic Circle, has now hit 30°C (86°F) or greater for 12 consecutive days. Let that sink in.

@AssaadRazzouk @pmagn What % and timing on the price increases? How much of the increase was speculators betting on "futures", ie price increases? How much of the increase went to farmers?

Olive oil: Up 50% after Spain droughts Onion: Up 89% in India last year Cabbage: Up 70% in Korea Rice: Up 48% in Japan Vegetables: Up 30% in China Vegetables: Up 80% in California and Arizona in 2022 after droughts Weather events behind these price increases “completely unprecedented from a historical perspective” - and temperatures were “far outside the range of what we would have expected in a stable climate that wouldn’t have been influenced by human emissions” #Facts ft.com/content/66b06e…

@BernieSanders Extortion and Racketeering?

Let’s review: 1) Trump files a bogus lawsuit against CBS 2) Paramount caves; pays Trump over $16 million 3) Trump’s FCC approves Paramount’s sale to Skydance, giving Redstone family a $2.4 billion payday 4) Trump allies now own CBS News This is authoritarianism in action.

@Harold_Steves Love the Steveston area! Do you offer guided walks or bike rides explaining the importance of shoreline grasslands, and fresh/tidal areas for young fish habitat? Cheers

I now chair Britannia Shipyard Nat Hist Site. We want to finish the site ASAP as a Living History Museum, provide Stay-cations, bigger, better Maritime Festival & events through the year; have rapid bus/LRT to Steveston. Major #ClimateChange is imminent. We must have alternatives

@MarkJCarney Some housing? Wastewater treatment plants? Fresh water supply? High speed rail? Lo carbon future?

Canada has the potential to become its own best customer. It’s time to build — with Canadian steel.

@WeDontHaveTime The carbon free future starts with REDUCTION, buying and using less, including flying and imported goods. Then substituting the 1/8 remaining, with electricity.

The journey to a carbon-neutral future runs through electrification. ⚡️ From global collaboration to local innovation, "The Journey of Electricity” broadcast explores what it takes to scale sustainable energy worldwide. 📺 Watch more @WeDontHaveTime: app.wedonthavetime.org/posts/d3270e9d…

@CNBC Where is Mark Carney, PM of Canada's response? Close the US border. Seize US assets. Cut off oil, gas and electricity exports. This global wickedness cannot be tolerated.

@LeonSimons8 @ECMWF @CopernicusECMWF @tugberksamur @danmiller999 @ClimateDad77 @WeatherProf Please stop using linear, straight lines, through data that is not linear. Climate change is accelerating. Please use polynomial curves that fit the data and show increasing change. When you do that, predicting temperature increase is frightening. Maybe 2C by 2030!

Global warming reached an estimated 1.51°C in May 2025. 'If the 15-year warming trend leading up to then continued, global warming would reach 2°C by December 2036' May was the first month below this trend in almost two years. Global warming accelerated significantly!

@IEA Oil gas and coal are VERY much greater than renewables. Where is the base for renewables getting more investment?

Around $2.2 trillion is set to be invested collectively in renewables, nuclear, grids, storage, low-emissions fuels, efficiency & electrification this year. This is twice as much as the $1.1 trillion going to oil, gas & coal. Learn more ➡️ iea.li/43FIxCN

@WeatherProf More moisture, more heat absorbed, higher temperatures, more moisture ... runaway!

~7% increase in moisture in 2024 as compared to 1990s. About in line with Clausius Clapeyron

@RogerCoppock @trumplicans2024 Almost everything!

@trumplicans2024 As a youngster, I took long bicycle and hiking trips in the wilderness alone. A kid could not do that today.

@ryankatzrosene This is a warning. When Europe loses its glaciers, it loses its fresh water, agriculture, fish, soils, forests. It is a cascading calamity, not just a village destroyed.

Re: Blatten Glacier collapse; interesting point by glaciologist Rachel Carr in recent Bloomberg Green newsletter: “It was the least worst scenario — any loss of property or homes is a tragedy, but they were prepared for it”. As the newsletter (by Laura Millan) points out, much of the rest of the world doesn’t quite have the capacity to respond effectively and in advance, and “Billions of people globally live downstream from glaciers and at least 15 million are directly exposed to floods from glacial lakes bursting”.

@Harold_Steves How do we stop these NDP fossil fools??? They are totally denying climate change.

We reached 1.5C in 2024 & wildfires will continue in Canada with floods in other regions as we stay near that temperature. If El Nino combines with a low air pressure year in the Arctic we could reach 2C by 1929-1939 . It's past time to #keepitintheground newscientist.com/article/248194…

@pmagn @Harold_Steves Climate Watcher. Try using an Excel or R polynomial curve to fit the data. I suspect it will be at least a second order exponential, ie x squared, maybe x cubed or x to the fourth. It's accelerating at a scary pace, and seems to almost be runaway! Let me know your ccx results

@Harold_Steves Off the charts decade
