Dangerous heat and humidity could affect 1.2 billion people by the turn of the century if global warming goes unchecked, scientists say

Yep, I’ve been predicting “normality” would return when these articles started surfacing again. Next up will be a spate of stories about homos, trannies, men-beating-girls-in-sports, “transitioning,” more “detransitioning,” blah, blah, blah. All indications things are getting back to normal.

The corona virus will kill us all before then so no worry.

IF the temperature rises 1.5 degrees C, as the warmists scream, the global temperature will be back up to where it was during the Medieval Warm Period, when the British (BRITISH) wine industry threatened that of France.

(But then, maybe that is what the warmists are trying to prevent with their hysteria.)

“Scientists say...”

We'll have to watch out for that.

Maybe governments can issue air conditions and dehumidifiers.

In 10 years? Wait until August in most every state in the contiguous 48. Just like every year.

I’m getting worried...almost 50 posts and no Goebbels photo yet. Things are slipping around here.

You have to really feel sorry for poor Bob Kopp. He’s been slaving away on his research for years. He spent countless hours writing this paper and it passed all the difficult peer reviews. He finally got it published in the journal of Environmental Research Letters.

Then COVID hit and nobody gives a sh!t anymore.

[ConservativeInPA]

Extreme Cold conditions will affect 4.3 Billion by the end of the decade. See, I’m a climatologist, you can be one too. Just out do me.

[Rummyfan]

That’s 80 years away. We only have 10 or 11 left, right?

I think we're down to ten now. If the virus doesn't get us first!

[mass55th]

The same scientists who previously said we’d all be dead by this time in history.

[Wonder Warthog]

I looked at various links from the article and found NOWHERE that “extreme heat and humidity” were even defined. It might be there, but if so, it is well hidden.

[C210N]

Good. I look forward to saving a few bucks on my heating bill.

Hopefully, I’ll have some left over after paying my Air Conditioning bill.

[sbnsd]

Maybe governments can issue air conditions and dehumidifiers.

And then there will be governors in certain states that will ban the sale and use of them because they care about their constituents.

“The Climate” and whatever direction it may take over the coming decades is a negligible problem, in the total sum of all the concerns of mankind, because of one factor that the alarmists never seem to take into consideration. Human beings are highly adaptable creatures, perhaps the most adaptable in the entire span of biological organisms that have ever existed on this planet. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Pestilence, War, Famine, and Death, have been charging at mankind from the beginning, and yet, we survive, sometimes even thrive.

We either succeed in the endeavor, or have a major learning experience. There is no final failure.

[Right Wing Assault]

I stopped counting when I got to the second "could."

I say Bob Kopp could be wrong.

That was easy! I only needed one "could", too.

[glennaro]

The very next Democrat/Left President will declare a national emergency over “climate change”. Though the government will likely “allow” you to work (after all, they need you to support their bloated payrolls, benefit packages and pork spending), they likely will prohibit you from driving a car among many other things you can well imagine (air conditioning (except in public buildings) gone!; airplane trips (except for government or connected private individuals severly curtailed!; these sorts of things)

[PerConPat]

They are breaking out the champagne in:

Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway;
Qaanaaq, Greenland;
Upernavik, Greenland;
Khatanga, Russia;
Tiksi, Russia;
Belushya Guba, Russia;
Utqiaġvik, Alaska,United States;
Honningsvåg, Norway ;
Uummannaq, Greenland;
Hammerfest, Norway.

On the plus side, the high heat and humidity *MAY* knock out the coronavirus.

Universities should ban gas driven cars

Actually that is an excellent idea. Put your money where your mouth is. Save the planet from global warming- no driving on campus. must park elsewhere and get to classes the best way you can. no busses or electric cars (requires electricity from coal fired plants).

Trump should do an executive order
