UN weather report: Climate woes bad and getting worse faster
The Associated Press ^ | November 6, 2022 | By SETH BORENSTEIN (D-AP)

SHARM EL-SHEIKH, Egypt (AP) — Earth’s warming weather and rising seas are getting worse and doing so faster than before, the World Meteorological Organization warned Sunday in a somber note as world leaders started gathering for international climate negotiations.

“The latest State of the Global Climate report is a chronicle of climate chaos,” United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said. “We must answer the planet’s distress signal with action -- ambitious, credible climate action.”

In its annual state of the climate report, the United Nations’ weather agency said that sea level rise in the past decade was double what it was in the 1990s and since January 2020 has jumped at a higher rate than that. Since the decade began, seas are rising at 5 millimeters a year (.2 inches) compared to 2.1 millimeters (.08 inches) in the 1990s.

The last eight years have been the warmest on record, the WMO said in a report that didn’t break new ground but was a collection of recent weather trends, data and impacts in one central place.

“What climate scientists have warned about for decades is upon us. And will continue to worsen without action,” said University of Georgia meteorology professor Marshall Shepherd. “Two things must go away: Climate delayism and speaking about climate change impacts in the future tense. It’s here.”

Decades and decades of being wrong, and no doubt, there will be more decades to come of being wrong.

Anytime a lib starts prattling on about climate change I ask them to explain the difference between “climate-change” and “weather”.

Then I watch and enjoy as they struggle to get two consecutive intelligent sentences out of their mouth

"0.2 inches per year sea level rise"

"Everybody off the beach!"

Are they publishing the same report every year?
Except maybe adding some more hyperventilation.

The only thing we have to fear from Climate Change are the Progressive's overreactions and legislation overreach.

“ as world leaders started gathering for international climate negotiations.”

…..by flying thousands of miles in a private jet and limos to meet together!

More “the sky is falling” from Chicken Little liberals. Trust me, their conclusion will have something to do with milking U.S. taxpayers for more of our hard earned money. No, scratch that. It will have EVERYTHING to do with it.

I’d wager the entire Global Warming scam is more than $1 trillion/year industry when you count the ridiculous “transition” to green energy and EVs. That money is completely wasted and doesn’t do anything productive.

Don’t bother talking to me about rising oceans until Obama sells his beach house and publicly says it was a mistake.

Yes, it’s the worserliest it’s ever been here in North Idaho. The first part of October was a nice 65 to 75F, just delightful. I was starting to get worried that Global Warming was real, but then BOOM! Went straight from Indian Summer to cold winter.

The elitists think they can hide their racism behind a fraudulent "man-made climate change" scheme, with the intent of killing off half of the population.

Fuel shortages, food shortages, restricted medical care, doctor assisted suicide, abortion on demand, destroy the family, mutilate and molest your children, no borders, empty prisons, streets flooded with deadly drugs, silence religious expression, destroy our freedoms and our Constitutional Republic,..... (what'd'I miss?)

Obama owns two houses at sea level, one in MA and the other on Oahu. If he’s not worried, neither am I.
