Well done again Doug. They're not listening. They can't listen. They're too wrapped up in their own anti-science fantasies to realise the absurdity of the claim that all warming of the planet since 1850 has been caused by the accumulation of man-made emissions of CO2 and other gases and that nature has played no significant role whatsoever. They just suck up the pseudoscientific nonsense being plied by the BBC for instance on behalf of fraudulent outfits like World Weather Attribution (based at Imperial College London), the latest of which is that the California wildfires were made 35% more likely because industrial greenhouse gas 'pollution' since 1850 has driven all of the 1.2C rise in global mean surface temperature since then! It's absurdity built upon sheer nonsense, but they fall for it every time.

It's the Sun of course - that great big ball of thermonuclear power (yes, nuclear fusion IS real!) on earth's doorstep - which drives virtually all climate and weather related activity on the planet, with the possible exception of some internal heat from the core. Its influence is mediated of course by the vastly complex ocean-atmosphere system, which nobody understands except Just Stop Oil protestors and politicians!

Thanks again for posting Joel. I’m not sure can keep this up for much longer! I’ve said it all a dozen times before but still things keep going from bad to worse.

The only glimpse of hope on the horizon is Trump’s dramatic dismantling of the deep state: https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/baptism-of-fire-tuesday-january-28.
