richie3846 it's the rate of change that is also a big problem. The earth may have been warmer before but species evolved to cope with that warmer world . Dinosaurs being a perfect example, reptiles flourished for many millions of yrs in that warmer climate. The trend of the earth since has generally been a cooler trend. Modern nature has evolved in this cooler world. The sun was less bright millions of yrs ago so the planet was able to cope with much more co2 in the atmosphere then now. There seems to a trend between an ever brighter and warming sun over many millions of yrs and the general trend of co2 in the atmosphere decreasing over many millions of yrs. A delicate balance between the two. We are now altering that balance.

SollyOlly yes and they are twisting things to say that it is the climate change movement etc that are the ones all about power and money etc. Scientists working for governments etc etc . That they want to control the people etc. Completely twisting everything around. That twisting of the truth is very dangerous.

WYorksWeather yes I've seen that. But there is alot of denial out there. These people can not be reasoned with. They have it in their heads that its all a scam. Many of the comments on this video on YouTube really think this film is telling the truth. Dangerous stuff. There seems to be a fightback going on against climate science and I find that very worrying. Of course it is difficult to gauge how much of the general population believe this denial nonsense and maybe I'm being a bit ott.

A propaganda piece for deniers. Climate the movie. Lol

raz.org.rain This article about the possible link between the cold blob and warm summers in Europe. Just a moment... WWW.SCIENCE.ORG

raz.org.rain yes I noticed that. Looks like it's back.

With above average temperatures in the Atlantic combined with la nina I presume that could mean a very active hurricane season this yr?

Was the drop quicker then expected?

Wonder could the reason behind the warm oceans ( also having an effect on temperatures around the planet) be because of the oceans currents not operating properly as usual due to climate change.

Perhaps the warmer then average sst's have helped to have had such a miserable winter?
-
In Absence of True Seasons maybe it's a case of waiting for El Niño to completely fade? Then hopefully a shift to dryer conditions will occur. The warmer ssts of recent times I'm sure won't help though.

Didn't realise until lately just how much denial is still out there. This was an article in fb that got over 1000 laughing emojis. With one comment in the comment section getting over 400 likes. Really makes me angry seeing this type of denial.

al78 excellent lol. That's very true indeed.

ANYWEATHER To your little dig at C02 levels. Its 0.04% actually. Such a small percentage but without it earths average temperature would be around minus 18c. Shows how sensitive the atmosphere is to co2.

Reasons for not looking forward to winter in the UK?
sundog replied to Sunny76's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
One of the things I liked about autumn was the anticipation of the forthcoming winter. Cant even have that anymore. The only anticipation I have during autumn these days is how bloody crap winter will likely be , not much fun. Lol. -

lassie23 can't blame you. Feels like we don't get proper seasons anymore. More especially autumn and winter. Those 2 seasons are dying a death. -

sundog replied to Sunny76's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Got interested in the weather in the first place when I was a kid growing up in the 80s due to the winter season. Nowadays even weeks before the end of winter I often look forward to spring due to the lack of wintery type weather during winter. Our winters have become so bland and boring overall. I have lost alot of faith in winters at this stage. But I will still hope beyond hope that going into next winter and any winter that it might deliver something even though my expectations will be very low. -
