    Default National Geographic climate disaster school... --- OPEN THREAD

    Yet ANOTHER Moonbat attempt to hide in the kiddie pool. Moonbat is obviously too damn stupid to learn precisely how this works... Time to shut down his kiddie pool thread and move all discussion over to this thread in which ANYONE may participate...


    Here is Moonbat's batty OP, in its entirety:

    Natural Disasters and Climate Change
    Students use maps and graphs to understand how the frequency of billion-dollar natural disaster events has changed over time. They analyze how climate change affected the 2017 California wildfires and the flooding from Hurricane Harvey.

    Directions here;

    U.S. 2020 Billion-Dollar Weather and Climate Disasters: Overview

    2020 in Context…
    In 2020, there were 22 weather/climate disaster events with losses exceeding $1 billion each to affect the United States. These events included 1 drought event, 13 severe storm events, 7 tropical cyclone events, and 1 wildfire event. Overall, these events resulted in the deaths of 262 people and had significant economic effects on the areas impacted. The 1980–2020 annual average is 7.0 events (CPI-adjusted); the annual average for the most recent 5 years (2016–2020) is 16.2 events (CPI-adjusted).


    https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/monitoring...saster-map.png
    2020 sets the new annual record of 22 events - shattering the previous annual record of 16 events that occurred in 2011 and 2017. 2020 is the sixth consecutive year (2015-2020) in which 10 or more billion-dollar weather and climate disaster events have impacted the United States. Over the last 41 years (1980-2020), the years with 10 or more separate billion-dollar disaster events include 1998, 2008, 2011-2012, and 2015-2020.

    --- Define "climate change".
    --- Define "climate disaster". (this term has been added to the Lispy Leftist list in my sig, btw)

    Weather happens, dude.

    As we've always dealt with them throughout all of history. None of them are caused by "it", whatever "it" is...

    Nope, they are open discussion threads, in which ANYONE can participate. Whenever someone such as ITN or myself does this, the kiddie pool thread always withers away and the open discussion thread blossoms. Sucks to be stupid, eh Moonbat?

    This is what happens when leftists refuse to define their meaningless terminology. It makes no sense to us English speakers.

    Overall natural disasters are actually going down globally.

    They are simply being overly hyped by the left like they always do.
    Disasters happen; it's all a part of weather. There's nothing that you, I, nor anyone else can do about it, since we don't control the weather.

    What IS "climate change"? It is just a meaningless buzzword... Climate is a subjective term, usually defined as "weather over a long period of time", and climate is not quantifiable (there is no such thing as "more climate" or "less climate". Climate is also very localized (as weather is), so there's no such thing as a "global climate".

    No, did you notice the two seasons mentioned?

    I don't I based that off of predictions/forecast.

    February 23 2021

    Due to the ongoing La Niña, severe weather and tornado activity could abruptly fire up and rival one of the most notorious severe weather seasons ever (2011).
    Overall, tornado activity is forecast to be slightly above normal for the year.
    Based on past decades, the chance for tornadoes typically increases from February into March in the South.

    December 11 2020

    Water temperatures have cooled in the Pacific since this past summer in a phenomenon called La Niña. This co-operative oceanic/atmospheric occurrence is one of the reasons that this past hurricane season was record-breakingly busy.

    La Niña typically allows for more favorable atmospheric conditions in the Atlantic while its counterpart pattern, El Niño, typically allows fewer tropical storms and hurricanes to form.

    Soooo, what did Q NUT Daily "predict"?

    Ahhhhh, so you've outsourced your thinking to others and simply parrot whatever a "holy link" tells you?? Got it. Summarily dismissed.

    Seriously, what is it with you lefties and Q-anumnumnum? I've yet to meet a conservative who brings it up nigh as often as the average liberal brings it up... What is it, even?

    You would be much better off letting me do your thinking for you rather than letting the MoSM do it... However, you'd be the best off to stop outsourcing your thinking to others and to instead learn how to think for yourself. Learn HOW to think, not WHAT to think...

    Whenever someone such as ITN or myself ( SAME PERSON ) does this, the kiddie pool ( ORIGINAL ) thread always withers away and the open discussion ( COPYCAT ) thread blossoms. Sucks to be stupid, eh Moonbat?
    It's outside of my experience - so I'll take your word for that.

    Haw, haw..................................haw.


    Incidentally, dumbass sock- the ORIGINAL thread has as much response as the TWO copycat threads dumped here by you and your sock COMBINED.
    You should desist from trying it again. You are, after all, banned from my threads for being a troll's sock .
