In 2021, Krista Myers led a paper which surveyed 2780 Earth scientists. Depending on expertise, between 91% (all scientists) to 100% (climate scientists with high levels of expertise, 20+ papers published) agreed human activity is causing climate change. Among the total group of climate scientists, 98.7% agreed. The agreement was lowest among scientists who chose Economic Geology as one of their fields of research (84%).

From Myers, Krista F.; Doran, Peter T.; Cook, John; Kotcher, John E.; Myers, Teresa A. (20 October 2021). "Consensus revisited: quantifying scientific agreement on climate change and climate expertise among Earth scientists 10 years later". Environmental Research Letters. 16 (10): 104030.

I would like to get a couple dozen climate scientists together, you know the type that claim what the weather was like 1,000 years ago by looking at core samples, and what seasons were like looking at tree rings. Give all of them the exact same things and then watch how wildly their answers vary. I am sure you could find a 200 year old oak tree that blew over in a storm.

We've had all kinds of scientist tell us fish would boil, a coming ice age, etc. Been hearing the science experts get the climate wrong for decades. They were nothing more than palm readers with a degree.

The implication being that without human activity the climate would never change.

Dire famine in the United States was predicted by 1975


In 1969 a scientist said humans would disappear in a cloud of blue smoke by 1989


A new ice age was predicted in 1970 to happen in the first part of this century


Prediction in 1970 of water rationing by 1974 and food rationing by 1980


More predictions by climate 'scientist' morons at this link

The United States can not be projected until the middle east taps out, the plan has always been to use up other country's resources first.

When the shortage occurred in the late 70's, many were predicting we were at peak oil and oil would be gone in 25 years.

Peak oil kept making new peaks as finding and extracting oil became better and better.

I have heard some say we will NEVER run out of oil. I suspect synthetic oil will be produced at competitive prices in the future.

Oil fields thought to be depleted are replenishing. Petroleum isn't as finite as was originally believed.

The Iceland volcano is probably wiping out all of 2023's carbon gains, or credits, offsets, or whatever metric....

From there the sun does the rest.

But yeah, call it climate change if it makes you feel better.

I notice a lot of times in summer driving in and out of an asphalt jungle can add as much as 4 degrees F. Another thing all that pavement gives rain water less places to soak in, especially if they do not do a good job maintaining the storm drains, then they claim "historic flooding" due to "man made climate change." I don't remember if it was this past summer of the one before, all the hoopla over the "historic flooding" in the Mojave Desert. I saw way worse with my own two eyes when I lived there 50-55 years ago. Summer thunderstorms that dump a lot of rain quick there are not unusual, yet they started calling them monsoons created by man made climate change, what a bunch of horse crap.
