7 RESPONSES TO “THERE IS NO HUMAN RIGHT TO A SAFE OR STABLE CLIMATE”
Ulric Lyons | April 9, 2024 at 12:36 pm | Reply
“extreme heat that is becoming more frequent”
Very brief Saharan plumes like in July 2022 and July 2019 rely on negative North Atlantic Oscillation conditions and the associated more southerly and wavier jet stream. So they are more common during low solar periods, and rising CO2 forcing is expected to increase positive NAO states.
The major longer lasting positive NAO driven heatwaves are all discretely solar forced, as in 2003, 2006, 2013, and 2018, and we have actually been fortunate to have had so many warmer drier summers during a centennial solar minimum.

In the old days, governments used to build pyramids when they wanted to consume energy that provided no intrinsic value. At least they look cool and last a long time.

This perverse ruling suggests two insane things:
1. That human actions have caused whatever climate events that the elderly Swiss women are complaining about.
2. That human actions can miraculously ‘make climate safe’.I lived in Switzerland for a winter 35 years ago. It was a strange one. There was an unbelievably warm and wet period running up to Christmas, rather analagous to an ‘atmospheric river’ in California. Rainfall occurred up to 3000m all over the alps, washing away almost all the non-glacier snow in Swiss Ski resorts. The hoteliers had a disastrous 8 weeks, since most people simply cancelled their bookings.
After the rainfall, there were stable high pressures from Moscow to Madrid for about 6-8 weeks. Weather was good for walking, not for ski-ing. We did a glacier ski tour normally done in March in January, and there wasn’t actually any snow atop the firn ice even at 3500m. We climbed down ladders to get onto the glacier (in March, we walked straight out of the tunnel onto snow, since metres of snow had accumulated by then).
In February, we had another unusually warm day at the end of a warm sunny week, with temperatures well over 20C at 1600m. This was followed by 5 days of snow, then rain, then snow, causing landslides to occur. Train lines were taken out. However, we were able to ski nicely for a week thereafter and then we had another week of blizzards, including hurricane force winds of 245kph at 3500m. The village I was working in was cut off for two days, trees were blocking rail lines in the valleys and children were blown so violently across the ice rink that it had to be shut for safety reasons. We didn’t demand ‘safety’, we bought ham, cheese, bread and wine and spent the windy afternoon safely indoors.
The month of April was also most unusual. It kept on snowing down to low altitudes right up to the end of the month, which didn’t help the hoteliers as they had mostly shut up until June.
That was the third bad winter in a row for the European Alps, a bit like a three year drought in California.
The next winter the snows came early, continued vigorously in December and the next few winters had some really great snow conditions.
If you want certain weather, I suggest you go live right in the middle of the Sahara desert. It may prove challenging to grow crops there, but you will know that the weather will be fairly consistent all through the year…..

Check out the effects of Tambora’s 1815 eruption on the following year’s weather. There are things which we can’t handle and it does make sense to adopt many wim-win options which work regardless of the nature, cause, Extent and direction of future climate or if a major food crop failed. The idea above seems like a job creation scheme for lawyers though.

This reminds me of the lyrics of Camelot:
It’s true! It’s true! The crown has made it clear.
The climate must be perfect all the year.A law was made a distant moon ago here:
July and August cannot be too hot.
And there’s a legal limit to the snow here
In Camelot.The winter is forbidden till December
And exits March the second on the dot.
By order, summer lingers through September
In Camelot.
Camelot! Camelot!I know it sounds a bit bizarre,
But in Camelot, Camelot
That’s how conditions are.
The rain may never fall till after sundown.
By eight, the morning fog must disappear.
In short, there’s simply not
A more congenial spot
For happily-ever-aftering than here
In Camelot.Camelot! Camelot!
I know it gives a person pause,
But in Camelot, Camelot
Those are the legal laws.
The snow may never slush upon the hillside.
By nine p.m. the moonlight must appear.
In short, there’s simply not
A more congenial spot
For happily-ever-aftering than here
In Camelot.Loading...

Reminds me of protection sought from EMFs a while back. Hard to impossible for courts to deal with perceived harm and limited scientific understandings. Damage from such may greatly exceed benefits.

Nice compendium of articles debunking the 3rd greatest of all scams ever.
The fact that Trump has signed contracts and covered-up his affairs with other women, is evidence that he repeated this behavior in Russia. Trump made many trips to Moscow, visited the Beverly Hills nightclub, casino, and restaurant, and embarrassed himself and other Americans - including my daughter who was a manager at this joint venture. In Russia, every hotel room assigned to a foreigner has cameras and listening devices in the ceiling and walls. Russia also has "professional" KGB/FSB women soliciting sex with foreigners for the purpose of recording these encounters. These are used by the KGB/FSB to entrap a foreigner and bribe him to work for Russia.
I lived and worked in six dictator-led countries from late 1980's to mid-2000's. While walking down the hallway in the Prebaltiskaya Hotel in St. Petersburg, I passed an open door and saw all the recording devices stocked on shelves with room numbers assigned. It is my estimate that Trump was photographed with his pants down and with a Russian woman. This evidence was probably presented to Trump at the Helsinki Summit in 2018 when Putin met with Trump privately with no western translators or other officials. Trump left that meeting with his head down. He then walked to the microphones and agreed with Putin on all issues, including that the Russians did not interfere in the 2016 election. The Russians later openly admitted to this interference. (www.reuters.com, November 7, 2022).
What this means to Americans, those who are not brainwashed or a part of the Trump cult, is that Trump is under the control of Russia KGB/FSB and will do as they tell him to prevent further negative stories about him to be published.
