Now, it has to be said that a person hasn't lived a full life unless you've been through one of these joint replacement surgeries. The type of surgery needed was more complex than what can be done locally. Deleteīack in mid-May, my wife and I traveled away from the glorious sunshine and warm weather of eastern Washington State and drove to Seattle so that I could have joint replacement surgery at the UW Medicine surgical pavilion across from the UW campus. It's perfect, because it can't be proved, models can be manipulated, and nothing can really be done about CO2 at a level that matters, unless of course.you create a global technocratic socialist system.hmm.

Thank goodness!Ĭlimate Change is one of the methods to their madness. I'm betting on a quick wake-up and we're seeing that right now all across the globe. The question is how much damage has to occur. Thankfully, things which do not conform to nature will fail. Pure authoritarianism in a pyramid scheme. Hopefully, the people will see the elite's power-grab for what it is sooner than later. That's what is being pushed presently at a global scale. Hmm, haven't we seen that recently in WA? Think v. Others with moral standards are marginalized or eliminated. Those who bow completely get the benefits. Socialism, well you know what that is: flat-lined equity, not a natural reality. Of course, the problem is that science changes constantly based on new data, but authoritarians don't want to lose their control. A technocracy is a form of government where science and technology rule. Throughout history, there are people who believe they can produce utopias. Note that looking at data for other regions in the US shows nearly identical patterns). Data seem consistent with the idea that periods of intense heat are increasingly common (e.g., these data from NOAA. I am fine with casting a wary eye toward sensational press headlines, but the trends are not favorable and I feel like you overcorrect for overwrought headlines.Īlso, it seems like 2022 has been marked by numerous heat waves - beginning with recording breaking heat in Australia and South American in January and earlier anomalous heat in the US. Anthropogenic climate change seems to be making these extreme events occur more frequently. Yet here are we are again with an extraordinary heat dome during the northern hemisphere summer. Is it not somewhat unusual for two nearly identical 'black swan' events to occur in consecutive years? Cliff, if memory serves you described last year's PNW heat dome as a black swan event (and I thought you more recently estimated it to be something like a 1 in 1000 year event but can't dig up that blog post, so maybe I'm misremembering that)

I should know this, but I'm not a regular follower, so I'm going to ask you a direct question:ĭo you think that either 1) global warming is not occurring, or 2) global warming is occurring but not caused by human activity? But as someone else mentioned, the frequency of these events is as important, if not more so, than their magnitude (within reason).īut your comments I quoted also raise another question. That last sentence seems like a poorly-worded way of expressing 'the magnitude of recent heat waves is well-within historical variations'. Truth is that all heat waves are mostly natural, with a little addition by human caused warming.' But that does not say anything about what percent of the warmth is natural. You said: 'even a small amount of warming can greatly increase the frequency of such an event, particularly if the distribution is bell-shaped (Gaussian). So why are we even talking about attribution of individual events? It seems like the appropriate answer to questions about individual events is 'that's not the right question to ask, you should be asking about the frequency of events.' I don't see anything in these comments to suggest that any of us are trying to attribute any particular event to climate change. I suspect that most of us are intelligent enough to see this within an analytical framework of changing parameters of a distribution (mean, SD).

He was attributing a certain number of events to climate change, not specific ones.

Fred was not attributing 'an event to climate change'.
