    This won’t be the first time climate change has happened for Greenland. Eric the Red named it Greenland partly because in those days there was nowhere near as much ice as there is today and temps were warmer. But During the Middle Ages the little ice age occurred and Greenland became too cold and the resulting harsh living conditions caused the Vikings to abandon Greenland.

When I sit in a train in a station and my mind wonders of trough the window, and the train next to the one I sit in go's off , it looks for some seconds that my train is moving. So, we walk and drive and build on land, so that is the solid reference. Stupid is the best word. And it's not that it is warmer in one country that it not is colder in others....

      "Who is measuring the temperature of the air above the oceans ?" I was planning on a little ironic answer, but let's be polite. You have probably heard that meteorologists have used satellites for some time to measure high and low pressures, temperature, wind-speed and direction?. The first weather satellite, Vanguard 2, was launched on February 17, 1959. Of course capabilities have improved greatly since then. The first satellite with high-resolution FTIR spectroscopy capabilites was launched in 1998. FTIR Spectroscopy has the capability to see how much heat the different greenhouse gases radiates back into space. Water vapor is the winner, but we can't do much with that as it is linked to the temperature of oceans and athmosphere. CO2 comes in on a good second place, and that we can do something about. You see, add a little CO2, it gets warmer thus more water vapor....and there you go.

    It is so weird that folk cannot make logical steps. A high school science class can fill a closed fish tank with different gasses and measure how much each will absorb different wavelengths of light. Careful measurements and you can know precisely how much per pound of carbon. It is also not a difficult exercise to get a ball park figure of how much fossil carbon has been burned. Every bit of that carbon is no longer fossilized and the total heat is also added to each hour so that is more than 100 years ago, and what was added then is also hanging about. You can point to other things all you want , but that thing remains the huge non natural thing that swamps everything else because the scale is also a part of the calculation,

    • @freedem41
      @freedem41 5 лет назад +1

      @Porcelain Throne actually that is an interesting question very throughly investigated by the writers in the several years of the original Star Trek. Spock started out as a superior being but as the exploration wore on he ended up very maimed by his lack of emotions. This was not a planned thing but a place driven by trying to write for that charector. You will notice that when they redid the show they had the anti-Spock as Data. Rather than having enotions and trying not to, Data does not have emotions but seeks them out. Lor his "brother" also lacks emotions and sees them as a weakness. All this of course is "literature" but the writers actually struggle and discuss this in the episodes and beyond and that is a big part of why they are so classical.
      In point of fact there are people who have brain damage and lose all emotions, and they are indeed extremely disabled as the foundation of every action starts with emotions, even if logic helps with specifics in achieving the goal it is emotions that set every goal.
      Empathy of course is another matter of discovering in yourself how others would feel in a circumstance. The ripping babies out of their mothers arms never to be seen again is a perfect example of a total lack of empathy, added to the lack of understanding of almost everyone else who had the slightest amount of empathy would also react.
      This is of course quite different from sympathy of only a positive response as those with the empathy for the folk deciding to grab the children would have a much more negetive reaction of horror that such a mind could exist.

    Well done video and they make a pretty strong case. But you can never take such things as face value. Gotta do a little checking. In just a few minutes searching I discovered that Greenland was just as warm back in the thirties. It cooled off about 1.5 degrees till the 50's, then started warming up again. Seems odd they failed to inform us of this important fact. Important why? Because it means something other than CO2 caused the warming in the 30's and that something could well be doing it again.

      Lakes dry up due to the rise in temperature. It dries out the soil so much that it can no longer absorb any water, so all water that comes down from the melting glaciers due to the same rise in temperature, has no where to go but to cause floods and mudslides or until it finally does reach soil that can absorb some of the water.

      There are warm/cold fluctuations historically, in Greenland. Perhaps, it seems likely that the warming cycle is overwhelming the cooling cycle, given the fact that the glacier in Prince William sound; that was shown in this video, has retreated several kilometers. Inuit are not known as farmers, but it has warmed so much that they are farming and even on a commercial scale. Btw., Greenland got it's name from a Viking named Eric the Red and historians in several videos about him and the Vikings and the discovery of North America, by his son Leif Eriksen, have said; that Greenland was given this name, in order to appeal to and attract new settlers, to come there.

    You forgot to say that 1000 years ago the Danes and the Vikings colonised Greenland in large numbers and set up farms. This was during the ''medieval warm period '' when global temperatures were about 5c hotter than todays, and large areas of ice disappeared so farming could take place , this lasted about 400 years until the northern hemisphere went into the ''little ice age '' in about 1400 and the ice sheets returned and the Danes and Vikings left. So Greenland being ice free is not a new phenomenon, it has happened many times over the last 18,000 years.

    The world loses hundreds billions of dollars,because of the phenomena and disasters of global warming, and climate change (the change at the directions of winds )...
    60% of the(land)breeze and the(sea)changed in Iraq and this difference arrived at other countries of the world...
    This difference caused the change of the directions of winds,which needs to balance...
    You spend more than 80 years to study the age and the thickness of the ice at the poles(north and south ),but you didn't spend one day to return ice to his place...

    The simple solution to Greenland's drying out is to put many small rock and earth dams and planting reeds and willows on and around that slow the flow of water so it can be absorbed into the surrounding land this has worked in Australia it would also prevent the evident soil loss in the muddy waters flowing out to the sea.
