President Donald Trump - J.D. Vance Administration

This is part of the problem. It's telling a slanted story.

Arctic Sea Ice Near Historic Low; Antarctic Ice Continues Decline - NASA

Arctic sea ice retreated to near-historic lows in the Northern Hemisphere this summer, likely melting to its minimum extent for the year on Sept.11, 2024,

The historic low via satellite was 1.3 million in 2012. At the end of 2024 we were at 1.6. Do you ever hear about that increase? Or do they always just phrase the study to only show change as decreases?

Antarctica is similar. 2024 was a decline over the highs from '21 to '23, but still considerably higher than the low in 2012.

Antarctic ice has grown again – but this does not buck overall melt trend

The issue with all of this is we presume that whenever we started measuring these things it was "normal", and thus any change is going away from that "normal". Which may not be the case. Maybe we started recording data at a local "high" and we are just returning to average.

As far as the land loss that is a relative thing. Overall we are still gaining. Some islands are losing, but more are gaining. Again we like to pretend that when we started paying attention is exactly how it was before humans messed anything up. That simply isn't the case. The world was changing long before we figured out fire.

It is extreme hubris to presume that we are the drivers of the change we are seeing today. We certainly have an impact, but it's not the difference in environmental apocalypse vs "normal". "Normal" was always a point in time, not some set truth that humans ruined.

Mead lake made headlines when the water dropped to historic lows. They found boats, cars, and maybe a body or two in the exposed mud. A year later because of historic snowfall and melt, the lake was completely recovered (or close to it). No headlines.

The cognitive bias alive in climate sensationalism is some of the worst around.

Will be interesting to see how Soros / Clinton / Comey / Brennan / Clapper respond to this. Will they deny it happened or do what they normally do and attack the stories?

This is getting uglier by the day.

You’re proof that Trump is the stupid voters president

I don't see what I have to do with it at all, I don't vote. Now, you can go back to wearing your triple diaper on your face.

That a stretch. 14 year old little league baseball players are not a hotbed of gang members. But keep on being a Trump sucker

Is it? Aren’t those kids from the same country? Maybe use your time writing the Venezuelan government to take control of their gangs because it’s hurting their youth. Parents ruin it for the kids. That would mean you’d have to put your TDS down and using critical thinking skills.

Pretty sure we just had a President that was elected from a basement with the “highest vote” total.
