Netflix Planet Earth and Climate Change

[Walt Longmire]

Watched the series. They couldn't go 5 minutes in any episode without mentioning 'global warming' or 'climate change', Then I find out they herded walruses off a cliff to their death and.....gasp....blamed it on....you know it.....climate change. Just do an internet search for Walrus falling from cliffs. It will come right up. Turns out walruses have been congregating there for decades already. Just took a bunch of climate change fan boys to herd the walruses off with a drone.

Oh, and every species has only 5% or less of it's original numbers left. Most are extinct already according to them. The planet and everything on it is dying. The seas are boiling. So much fresh water running in from all those melting glaciers, that the ocean isn't even salty anymore. We're all going to be toast by 2040. Less than 20 years. Live it up folks. The party is almost over.

When my daughter was in 4th grade, some environmental wacko came and talked to them about saving water. 
 

They were told that 99% of the earths water was salty and can never be used for drinking.
 

Of the 1% that was drinkable 99% was locked in the ice caps or glaciers. 

Of the 1% that was not frozen 99% was in rivers, lakes, swamps and wetlands that need to be untouched for environmental reasons like fish and birds. 
 

Of the 1% we can use 99% has been too polluted to drink. 

Of the drinkable 1%,  99% is used to grow food. 
 

So something like only .00001% of the water left on earth that is fit to drink is being used by rich American kids to take showers. 
 

Not a sing teacher called her out on her bullshit.

I'm still dead from the global cooling of the 70s. These new global cataclysms are going to have to get in line...

A weak mind is easily controlled.

Here in drought prone California they tell us it is not raining due to climate change.  The problem with that narrative is that some actual scientists found some petrified tree trunks in a dried out lake bed and were able to estimate that in the last 1,100 years California had two major droughts.  One lasted 220 years, the other lasted 140 years.

Time to build water desalinization plants? No.  We build a bullet train that nobody is going to use.  Politicians finally found a way to tax the weather.  You want to have less pollution?  Build nuclear power plants.

BEGINNING about 1,100 years ago, what is now California baked in two droughts, the first lasting 220 years and the second 140 years. Each was much more intense than the mere six-year dry spells that afflict modern California from time to time, new studies of past climates show.

Quote

The findings suggest, in fact, that relatively wet periods like the 20th century have been the exception rather than the rule in California for at least the last 3,500 years, and that mega-droughts are likely to recur.

Quote

The evidence for the big droughts comes from an analysis of the trunks of trees that grew in the dry beds of lakes, swamps and rivers in and adjacent to the Sierra Nevada, but died when the droughts ended and the water levels rose. Immersion in water has preserved the trunks over the centuries.

Quote

Dr. Scott Stine, a paleoclimatologist at California State University at Hayward, used radiocarbon dating techniques to determine the age of the trees' outermost annual growth rings, thereby establishing the ends of drought periods. He then calculated the lengths of the preceding dry spells by counting the rings in each stump.

The bullet train was built for one simple reason. To further enrich a bunch of already rich politicians.

Has it even been built, and if so is it operational?

Quick, Oscar!

Buy up that cheap, useless land that no one wants real cheap, I'll have the state buy it from you for a railroad for a 10,000% profit and we'll split the take.

Worked for Southern Pacific in the 1800s, no reason it can't work for hippie Marxists in the 2000s.

When they tried to put tunnels into the hills in central California, the rock needed support.  They had massive cost overruns and Governor Newsom sensibly canceled the project with the stroke of a pen.

Teachers are afraid of "rocking the boat" because if they deviate from the "norm", they can be fired.  The system forbids dissent!

No kidding. I WAS a teacher. Operative there is WAS. I rocked the boat.

My son-in-law teaches high school.  I often hear stories that make my blood curdle.  It's a constant soap opera.

I'm often reminded that I could never do that job,  because I have no PC and would have already said the wrong thing before the day even started.

I've got a hoodie sweatshirt that says:

Yep. I just said that.
Welcome to my brain.
You might want to buckle up.

Might as well cancel it. They already banked the millions they all made off the public. The land for this was bought and sold several times by all the regular crooks, each pocketing millions.

In the 70s we were sure to cause a premature ice age.  The sky is falling.

In the 90s we were sure to cause global warming.  The sky is falling.

Now we're sure to be causing climate change...you know...weather.  The sky is still falling.

In the 70's our brain dead teachers were telling us we'd be out of oil by 1990. Of course we would also have flying cars by then. Stupid liberal teachers.

Social Security only had 10 years left too.  Of course that was before they started paying out to illegals and deadbeats afaik.  Certainly more believable in current times.

Yeah, in 20 to 40 years a new crop will be available for harvest.
