    The enhanced CO2 effect hypothesis has no truth in it. However faith based narratives will continue but without the corrupt aid from enhanced CO2 effect hypothesis believing bureaucrats.

    10 Big Findings from the 2023 IPCC Report on Climate Change

    8. Carbon removal is now essential to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees C.

    Deep decarbonization across all systems while building resilience won’t be enough to achieve global climate goals, though. The IPCC finds that all pathways that limit warming to 1.5 degrees C (2.7 degrees F) — with no or limited overshoot — depend on some quantity of carbon removal….

    We have passed the 1.5 degrees C barrier. Nothing bad has happened. The benefits of global warming continue.

    Seems you’ll continue to make your Social Media posts, despite the facts. Another false statement- we’re at 1.1 deg F, not 1.5 deg F. Also, From the link you obviously ignored.

    “since 2008, extreme floods and storms have forced over 20 million people from their homes every year.

    Coastal communities in the tropics, for example, have seen entire coral reef systems that once supported their livelihoods and food security experience widespread mortality, while rising sea levels have forced other low-lying neighborhoods to move to higher ground and abandon cultural sites. “

    The Social Media poster refutes the IPCC

    Well, no. But they still need to get out of the way of the tsunami.

    Not of interest -- mere personal attack.

    Copernicus (EU) and Berkeley Earth show data indicating that the global average temperature is over 1.5 degrees CENTIGRADE greater than it was at the start of the current warming period.

    And there has been no difference in the occurence of floods and storms despite the increase of atmospheric CO2 concentration from 280 to 420 ppm.

    And the coral reef systems despite regular die offs and recovery have seen not correlation with CO2 increases. Sea level is increasing but at the same rate for the last few centuries. Wind patterns and land sinking (especially land created by human land fills) are sinking. All of this is unrelated to increasing CO2 in the atmosphere.

    The information in your post was ignored because it has been repeatedly discredited.

    Completely accurate as anyone with an interest in the truth knows.

    Mankind’s influence on the climate is clear and unequivocal. Natural influences on the climate are only in the order of +/- 0.1 degrees C.

    The following, from IPCC AR-6 cuts through the nonsense.

    https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1/chapter/chapter-3#faq-3-1/

    Human Influence on the Atmosphere and Surface[​IMG]
    • The likely range of human-induced warming in global-mean surface air temperature (GSAT) in 2010–2019 relative to1850–1900 is 0.8°C–1.3°C, encompassing the observed warming of 0.9°C–1.2°C, while the change attributable to natural forcings is only −0.1°C to +0.1°C. The best estimate of human-induced warming is 1.07 deg C.

    The time frame of ~ 1930 - ~ 1960 is left out. Why? As an engineer you should realize that when selected time periods are culled from a continuum it is a dead give away of “how to lie with statistics”. Also what is the meaning of “likely “? And the AR’s are political documents.
