For all the histrionics over climate change, the one indisputable fact remains that prior to our species even existing on earth the whole damn thing has ALL melted AND ALL frozen countless times. And will again, regardless of how lame one's virtue signalling Prius or coal powered (lol) Tesla is.
One theory I discovered and researched recently is that we may have possibly inadvertently delayed the next coming big freeze for a while with all this carbon crap we burn that's holding heat in. More ironic than rain on your wedding day, that's for sure!
I enjoy irony, and I agree with your assessment. Even if the climate should change one way or another, it won't happen so quickly that we can't do what we've always done: adapt.
Quiet Sun Means Cooling of Earth's Upper Atmosphere
New measurements from a NASA satellite show a dramatic cooling in the upper atmosphere that correlates with the declining phase of the current solar cycle. For the first time, researchers can show a timely link between the Sun and the climate of Earth's thermosphere, the region above 100 km, an essential step in making accurate predictions of climate change in the high atmosphere.
Though air and sea temperatures worldwide have been quite warm in 2020, the eastern and central Pacific Ocean recently grew milder with the return of La Niña, the cooler sister to El Niño. La Niña brings cool water up from the depths of the eastern tropical Pacific, a pattern that energizes easterly trade winds and pushes warm surface waters back toward Asia and Australia. With this see-sawing of the heat and moisture supply across the Pacific, global atmospheric circulation and jet streams shift.
This La Niña fits into a larger climate pattern that has been going on for nearly two decades—a cool (negative) phase of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO). During most of the 1980s and 1990s, the Pacific was locked in a PDO warm phase, which coincided with several strong El Niño events. But since 1999, a cool phase has dominated.
The Effects of Solar Variability on Earth’s Climate, by The National Academy of Sciences
Solar irradiance, the flux of the Sun’s output directed toward Earth, is Earth’s main energy source. The Sun itself varies on several timescales—over billions of years its luminosity increases as it evolves on the main sequence toward becoming a red giant; about every 11 years its sunspot activity cycles; and within just minutes flares can erupt and release massive amounts of energy. Most of the fluctuations from tens to thousands of years are associated with changes in the solar magnetic field. The focus of the National Research Council’s September 2011 workshop on solar variability and Earth’s climate, and of this summary report, is mainly magnetically driven variability and its possible connection with Earth’s climate variations in the past 10,000 years. Even small variations in the amount or distribution of energy received at Earth can have a major influence on Earth’s climate when they persist for decades. However, no satellite measurements have indicated that solar output and variability have contributed in a significant way to the increase in global mean temperature in the past 50 years. Locally, however, correlations between solar activity and variations in average weather may stand out beyond the global trend; such has been argued to be the case for the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, even in the present day.
As a quick reply to your parting paragraph.... duuuuhhhhh hoooodathunk? Kek.
Q hivemind is in full effect here. We are unravelling the mysteries of the universe and scraping the horse shit out of the stables simultaneously. It's a Zen thing.
Everyone in the whole world who is paying any attention at all knows about this and is preparing accordingly and that definitely includes our corrupt government who loudly denounces it and promotes junk carbon science for their globalist overlords. The thousands of pallets of provisions they have squirrelled away are not for our benefit. This is the perfect culling opportunity and they are milking it for everything it is worth.
Yeah good point there... the planet doesn't need saving. We do. A good meteor strike global cataclysmic event will just clean house and let it all start again... When the dust settles, life will resume anew. Without us.
It really is terrifying considering how many of us are now crammed on this tiny blue marble and reproducing like a virus... causing massive damage to the host organism- mother Earth.
This glaring fact and the inevitable conclusion of our current trajectory of population growth won't be a pretty one, unless we go full Elon and expand our footprint to other planets in other Goldilocks zones in other parts of the Universe we know absolutely Nussing about at present.
I do understand and get the whole "there's too many of us" sentiment these globalists use as their narrative for all things aimed at human population reduction. The thing they don't ever dare say but most definitely mean is:
I've pretty much accepted that consciousness is quantum, so death doesn't really scare me anymore.
I welcome a meteor or nuclear war. I just don't give a fuck. The Ruling Class has pissed me off to the point that my entire existence is now about dragging them down from their thrones. I'm sick and tired of them controlling everything. I just want the smug inbred pricks to realize their mortality.

TL;DR: When the sun goes through cycles of being warmer and and cooler, so does our planet.
Most awesome post, Anon.

They want us to believe we are on the brink of extinction, yet life survived a fucking meteor.
I don't think some fumes are gonna matter lol. I do agree that petro is beyond obsolete though.

Another day when all we need is a good sharp knife and someone hands us a broken dirty plastic spork.
Save us, Alanis!!!
