We can turn global warming to our advantage - Russian govt.

[Tranquillus in Exile]

Russia is planning to “use the advantages” of warmer temperatures brought about by climate change, according to a document published by the government at the weekend.

The report notes increased opportunities for navigation and trade as ice melts in the Arctic, an area where Russia has also boosted its military presence in recent years.

The two-year, “first stage” plan lists other advantages including decreased spending on heating over the winter and the possibility of new areas available for farming.

But the 30-point paper also focuses on the risks of climate change and the dangers it poses to public health, animal environments and the Russian permafrost.

Russia is warming on average 2.5 times quicker than the rest of the planet, the report said, adding that the country’s industry, transport and agriculture would have to adapt to these changes.

Russia is planning to “use the advantages” of warmer temperatures brought about by climate change, according to a document published by the government at the weekend.

What "warmer temperatures"? During what period of time? Why is that period of time "holy" as opposed to any other conceivable period of time? Where is this "global temperature data" that we are supposedly basing claims like this on? Define "climate change".

The report notes increased opportunities for navigation and trade as ice melts in the Arctic, an area where Russia has also boosted its military presence in recent years.

So? Ice melts and freezes in the Arctic all the time, depending on whatever the weather does.

The two-year, “first stage” plan lists other advantages including decreased spending on heating over the winter and the possibility of new areas available for farming.

So? Heating and farming increases and decreases all the time, depending on whatever the weather does.

But the 30-point paper also focuses on the risks of climate change

What "risks"? Define "climate change". Why should I be irrationally afraid of an undefined buzzword? Why should I deny logic, science, and mathematics to believe that the Earth is somehow being warmed by magick gases using the IR emitted from Earth's surface?

and the dangers it poses to public health, animal environments and the Russian permafrost.

What "dangers"? Define "climate change".

Russia is warming on average 2.5 times quicker than the rest of the planet,

Made up numbers. Also, you can do a simple google search and discover that there are various headlines using that same language, thus effectively claiming that "everywhere" is warming faster than "the rest of the planet". Does that not raise any red flags?

We constantly have to adapt to whatever the weather happens to bring at any given time. None of this is "groundbreaking news", nor anything to be afraid of.

There are two distinct questions here, which deniers love to confuse:

1. Have global temperatures broadly risen in the past century?

2. If so, how much of that is man-made?

If the answer to #1 is Yes, and the answer to #2 is Not much (which is possible), that means we can do little or nothing about it. Too bad.

Yes it is. The permafrost is no longer perma. It is melting away releasing gasses into the atmosphere. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/04/...iberia-yakutia-permafrost-global-warming.html It has been frozen since the age of mammoths. You refuse to accept what is real.

PUKE..... Shitty song about a shitty socialist "utopia"...

Define "climate change". What "threat"?

[1] How are you measuring "global temperature"? We don't have the ability to do so with any usable accuracy...

[2] See #1.


I got one for you too:

How is CO2 "warming the Earth" using IR emitted from Earth's surface? Your answer MUST conform to logic, science, and mathematics for me to accept it.

indeed. the scientists have been fudging the data for many years now.

it's truly a vast conspiracy.

Putin says he can use global warming to his advantage. Our leader does not even believe it exists. Putin recognizes that it is a scientific fact and he plans accordingly. Trump plays golf.

Below is the composition of air in percent by volume, at sea level at 15 C and 101325 Pa.

Nitrogen -- N2 -- 78.084%
Oxygen -- O2 -- 20.9476%
Argon -- Ar -- 0.934%
Carbon Dioxide -- CO2 -- 0.0314%
Neon -- Ne -- 0.001818%
Methane -- CH4 -- 0.0002%
Helium -- He -- 0.000524%
Krypton -- Kr -- 0.000114%
Hydrogen -- H2 -- 0.00005%
Xenon -- Xe -- 0.0000087%
Ozone -- O3 -- 0.000007%
Nitrogen Dioxide -- NO2 -- 0.000002%
Iodine -- I2 -- 0.000001%
Carbon Monoxide -- CO -- trace
Ammonia -- NH3 -- trace

29% of Earth is land mass. Of that 29% humans occupy less than 1% of that area. Of the remaining 28% about 40% is pure wilderness. 14% is true desert and 15% has desert like characteristics. 9% is Antarctica. Most of the remaining 22% are agricultural areas. There may be other areas with a human footprint of some kind.

The notion that man is causing the planet to heat up based on CO2 that amounts to less than 1% of the gas in oxygen can only be believed by morons.
