Climate change and the impending apocalypse

So have the other nations though and when you look at the graph it our outsourcing doesn't match our deindustrialisation. We do outsource but we actually actually manufacture 2% of the world's goods whilst being 0.85% of the world's population

The biggest jump has been in the last 18 years when our deindustrialisation has been flat,it was already gone to the service sector post millennium. By far the biggest factor is the switching from coal being our biggest source of power to renewables. Hopefully there is jobs created in the area of the pit that is closing

I wonder about your sources sometime.

Do you aye, class that you spent your time looking. There is probably different lists but Make Analysts has us dropping from 8th in the world to 12 and around 2% of global manufacturing goods, which they blame on brexit. Regardless if it's 2% like they say or dropped lowe it'll definitely be above 0.85% of our world population.
https://manufacturingdigital.com/articles/why-has-the-uk-dropped-out-the-top-10-manufacturing-nations

"Part of the UK's drop from the top ten is down to positive manufacturing growth in other countries.

China, the US, Japan and Germany continue to dominate, accounting for 55% of world manufacturing output while the UK accounts only for 2%.
Manufacturers in these four nations are ramping up investment in industrial robots, AI, automation and electric vehicles, with strong governmental support and investment"



Al the above just accounts for goods UK is now the world's 4th largest exporter due to our service industry being massive. There is Co2 linked to the service sector, from the use through tourism, banking and technical services which all use power. Whilst brexit is affecting goods badly the service sector is flying and as a service nation that's what probably is keeping us in growth

Services trade sees UK become world’s fourth largest exporter

Miles Celic, CEO of TheCityUK, said the news was “very encouraging”, adding: “The UK’s strong export performance has been supercharged by services generally and the financial and related professional services industry in particular.

“Britain is the largest net exporter of financial services in the world, and the second largest exporter of financial services overall, behind only the US.

“The industry is an enormous national advantage for the UK and one that generates jobs and drives growth across the country.”

not sure if the floods in Valencia are attributable to climate change but this was the aftermath in one part this morning

They received 343mm of rainfall in 4 hours. That's absolutely not 'normal' and most likely attributable.

Quite staggering footage and data!

Hope they're OK, MY.

Our infrastructure and systems just aren't set up to deal with these events. Especially in places where aridity is a far more challenging issue than excess!

They are fine, quite a bit further south of valencia. Apparently roasting sunshine.

The videos from Spain are absolutely mind boggling. The devastation is off the scale.

There was a devastating flood in Valencia 1957. That was before climate change though. Not sure what the scientists attributed that flood to?

Also a big one even further back, in Noah's time. I don't think The Scientists are claiming that floods never happened before, rather that they are becoming more frequent.

People that highlight every flood now and say it's because climate change are silly. People that don't look at the higher frequency of major floods and attribute it that or the phenomenal growth in world and sea temperatures to climate change are sillier

Yeah, that's why you and I probably disagree. The planet is (according to experts) 4 billion plus years old. Accurate weather records are, roughly, 150 years old. Feel free to provide the evidence that floods are becoming more frequent from Noah's time until now.

We are in a short-term, in relation to Earth's lifetime, trend.

It was interesting to hear about some of the ideas that were talked about in Baku regarding how to fund poor countries paying for the damage we've inflicted on them. Many of the ideas were obviously about taxing the superwealthy.

We've always had the oil companies trying to obscure the evidence but now we've got another level of **** trying to feed us s***. It'll be interesting/sad to see what happens to NOAA under Trump.

There's records that go back much longer but the use other factors like geology to back up scientific findings. I wouldn't ask for someone on here or any form of social media to give you the information. I'd go to scientist that have studied it for decades, 99% will agree and back it up with data that the world has seen an unprecedented heating. This heating brings higher rainfall, therfore more floods. I'd say the evidence is so clear that only people who havent tried to look at a range of scientific sources wouldn't believe in man made climate change.

what Stairway says is absolutely correct. If you don't believe geologists, meteorologists and 99% of the scientific consensus, you could also ask Exxon Mobile and Shell, who conducted extensive research in the 70s into the consequences of burning fossils fuels, and upon creating a projection that CO2 levels would be at catastrophic levels by 2060, embarked on a massive dis-information campaign, downplaying their own findings.

surely, in such circumstances, the burden of proof is on the person saying that climate change doesn't exist.

The thing that was bothering me about COP 29 is that India seemed to be the spokespcountry for the ‘poorer nations’. 5th largest economy in the world and rising and 3rd largest polluter.

All handily helped along with huge volumes of cheap Russian oil as well!

I'm on my phone so can't do the copy/paste of relevant papers and links, but look up the scientific discipline of palaeolimnology. Search for articles that use sediment deposition, isotopic proxies to measure changing flood frequencies.

This isn't new science - it's well established, with many examples of historical flood analyses!

Well we have had a few ice ages thrown in there too so not much flood data there. Plenty of evidence of glacial erosion. Oh and the fact that the ice and permafrost is the lowest levels in human history.

We've had ours for a few years

We have a really cheap overnight tariff so in winter use that time to fill up the battery from the grid
