  • The problem is the AMOC is highly variable. They used the original models as well for comparison. One of the things this model does that’s new is model the salinity variability better.

    If they’re wrong, that’s probably a good thing, unless they’re wrong in that it will be worse than predicted.

    The issue is climate predictions have been very pessimistic already, and we are blowing past them already.

    It’s kind of like, we were right, but it’s happening earlier than expected. Honestly, that’s not a good feeling.

    My wife does research on resilience, and one of the things they have to do is use a large number of climate models to make sure they aren’t underestimating effects.

    Sadly, we don’t know what we don’t know.

















  • …I’ve never met a “MAGA” in real life. I know a bunch of Republicans, but not the stereotype obsessed over on social media. It’s reminiscent of the McCarthy era and communism. Everyone talked about communists all day, every day, but they were sooo good at blending in that nobody saw them.

    What is MAGA even refer to? People who don’t think the benefits of excessive immigration outweigh the negatives? People who are annoyed with the people online ranting about obscure gender issues? If this were the case, then a lot of the democrats i know are apparently MAGA.

    Comment in question. I probably wouldn’t have banned you personally. But let’s not pretend like you were just expressing a different opinion. You were trolling, and trying to get a response from people. I have personally had the unfortunate experience of sitting at a bar coincidently next to these ding dongs, and seen them roll into town waving their flags and rolling coal as they went to Trumps campaign rally in the town I live in.
