Except they are talking about diverting water from the Mississippi river to cover the water shortage. They are already taking most of the Colorado's water.
I don’t think they’ll be able to since Arizonas water rights where done to supersede Californias water rights, and Arizona has returned water rights back to Native control. It’s projected that in 2023 Arizona is going to start seeing water shortages because of this. California is doomed…

California is waterless by choice, much like the magnitude of wildfires is by choice. They don’t want to build dams to capture the water, so majority (like 80%) of fresh water runs off into the oceans, so the people in that state will suffer and since they don’t dreg the forests floors the fires become bigger and more intense by the fuel that canvases the forest floors. Oh well let them enjoy it because it seems they like it like that.
Amazing how you know how to fix the problems but they don't. You better ring them up and give them the benefit of your knowledge - don't worry if they put you on hold for a while, keep hanging on :cwl:

@Gregs24 gets a reality check.🤔😂

https://www.nature.org/en-us/about-...es-in-california/californias-wildfire-future/

“Our paper, Wildfires and Forest Resilience: the case for ecological forestry in the Sierra Nevada, cites over 130 scientific studies to make the case for ecological forestry as the best solution to combat megafires in California’s fire-adapted conifer forests. Our major findings are:”

Just another non biased educational information for stopping mega fires. But hey I’m an idiot who doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

“Amazing how you know how to fix the problems but they don't.” 🤔
Seems educating myself is a bad thing🤣

So you’re saying that climate doesn’t have any weight on weather?
No, I'm saying weather is not climate. You can have extremes of weather unrelated to climate. Always have, always will. The frequency of those extremes however can be related. Additionally cold extremes can be caused by global warming as more energy is injected into the atmosphere resulting in weather pattern changes. Some places will get hotter, some wetter, some dry and some even colder.

It is all very well understood by climatologists and meteorologists.

They know it the choose not to do anything. Why I said Californians love this and we shouldn’t meddle. Let them suffer. California will be waterless in about 20 yrs if it takes that long. Again by choice. Their forest fires are out of control again by choice. Nothing to do with climate.

Hello; Climate is average weather over a long time. A funny thing is when we get lots of snow or it snows in places that rarely get any snow it is merely a local weather phenomenon. In the summer when we get some hot days the story becomes it is climate warming and somehow not a local weather phenomenon. Interesting how that works.
Thing is the average climate of large areas may be changing. Those who point out such has been the case over millions of years get labeled as deniers or some other such derogatory term. This does at least two things. First being the attaching of the idea that we are too dumb to understand, so can be ignored. Next thing being since we are too dumb, then it becomes the duty of our self-proclaimed superiors to use force. Probably lie to yourself that you are doing it for our own good.

Another thing is we got a taste of the extent of the power grab during the covid times. The outcome is not yet sure, but we are warned.

Here is an item I have heard about. Seems the story is back in the 1930's some very high temperature records were set and recorded. Saw on the local Knoxville TN weather news last summer about local area record temps that came close to the 1930's records. The 1930's was also the time of the dust bowl for that matter.
To the point which is one I would like cleared up. A story i have heard is when building the predictive computer climate models, part of the process was entering real and inferred climate of the past. The record temps apparently did not fit well into the models. What I heard is those data years were omitted, it seems to tidy things up. Not much of a point but enough, if true.

The local news station reported that the warmest winter on record for Cincinnati was an avg temp of 44F degrees, set in 1876.

This winter has been warm, avg temp of 38F.

I was worried last fall because all the climate models said we were in-store for record cold.

Hello; 1876 is interesting.

It might sound like an extract from an early draft of George Orwell’s 1984. In fact, it was the plan for Whitby, targeted as the government’s first “Net Zero village”. An entire community would have all their heating systems ripped out, by force if necessary, and replaced by hydrogen or heat pumps.

I believe this is from the UK? There goes the "we are not forcing anything on you" argument.
