Second link: Worse fires are due to ecological policies of not pre burning forests. You know, people read, right? First link also notes trends of drought in the past 20 years. Not just predicting. Second link: You can't prove causation for forest management is the issue. But you can correlate drier weather to more forest fires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had ice glaciers the height of skyscrapers on top of Canada all the way to Virginia. It melted without human industrialization. Over thousands of years. Now we're seeing loss of glaciers in a matter of decades. Edited July 1, 2021 by Boges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cite me drastic climate change now please. 3 days of hot weather is not climate change. Just like a rough winter isn't a sign of a coming global cooling.

Just like a rough winter isn't a sign of a coming global cooling. I never claimed that. Though 45 plus temperatures in BC is rather alarming, it would be an outlier if it wasn't part of a larger trend of drought. There are plenty of trends and not outliers that indicate a warming of the climate. https://www.ucsusa.org/resources/ten-signs-global-warming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infidel Dog Posted July 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 Sheesh...settle down warmiacs. "Climate Change" had nothing to do with the Lytton fire. They don't know what caused it but it appeared to have started in the town central. Quote The cause of the fire remains undetermined, but Hildebrandt said it may have been sparked by a train passing through Lytton. https://globalnews.ca/news/7996127/lytton-wildfire-damage/ And anybody who doesn't know it gets hot - like real hot - when it gets generally hot in a BC summer has never driven through the Fraser Canyon in August. Me and my buddies from the days before Al Gore started brain training NPCs to believe the world would end as a result of nice weather would laugh in your face if you told us Lytton doesn't get abnormally hot in summer. We wouldn't care what some selective bit of questionable data told you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infidel Dog Posted July 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 No, gaslighting and name-calling are just signs of desperation. Keep trying though.

Desperation from those desperate to believe in climate end-times always makes me smile. You need that right? Anyone who disagrees with your views on climate change has to be someone who thinks we're just a week or two away from extinction. Not for you the sanity of an actual climate change argument. It's like when you paint those who oppose the Big Lie as extremist Antifa/BLM supporters. If they were not, you'd actually have to have a sane argument. Anyway, climate change provides the conditions for extreme weather events to be more extreme, but the Lytton fire was probably caused by a hillbilly on a quad staying in one spot too long.

Infidel Dog Posted July 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 Again...what on earth are you talking about? The topic is the Lytton fire. As I understand it you believe this fire was caused by something you call "climate change" which as I understand it involves coming apocalyptic, climate catastrophes. If any of that is not what you're suggesting just tell me. We'd have nothing to argue about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infidel Dog Posted July 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 So it probably wasn't caused by your "climate change" except maybe it was. Is that what you're saying? All I know is you sure get excited when I say: Quote 1 hour ago, Infidel Dog said: "Climate Change" had nothing to do with the Lytton fire. They don't know what caused it but it appeared to have started in the town central. https://globalnews.ca/news/7996127/lytton-wildfire-damage/ I just thought of something... Did they ever decide if it was Mrs. O'Leary's cow kicking over a lantern that caused the great Chicago fire of !871? Whatever. I'm pretty sure that one wasn't "Climate Change" searching the globe for a city to burn up either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infidel Dog Posted July 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) But yeah, if we agree it wasn't something called "climate change" that burned down Lytton yesterday what are we arguing about?

Because I think that was what we were arguing about. Since you got climate change and what caused the fire mixed up in a post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
