Friendly reminder that the polar cell is destabilizing as arctic heating colossally fucks up the behavior of the jet stream. Abnormally high temperatures are being measured in the Arctic this year.

This further melts sea ice which is important because it reflects incoming infrared radiation (sunlight). Melted, the IR radiation hits deep blue ocean water and absorbs the energy. This in turn gets released as thermal radiation and further contributes to warming.

The ice goes first and then the permafrost in the ground follows.

>In the northern circumpolar region, permafrost contains 1700 billion tons of organic material equaling almost half of all organic material in all soils. This pool was built up over thousands of years and is only slowly degraded under the cold conditions in the Arctic. The amount of carbon sequestered in permafrost is four times the carbon that has been released to the atmosphere due to human activities in modern time.

Guys, why are the global elite becoming preppers? I thought preppers were crazy?

>Those who can afford to pull out all the stops for so-called self-preservation are doing so — in a fashion that goes way beyond the submerged corrugated metal units adopted by reality show "preppers" — to prepare for anything from nuclear bombings to drastic climate-change events. Gary Lynch, GM at Rising S Bunkers, a Texas-based company that specializes in underground bunkers and services scores of Los Angeles residences, says that sales at the most upscale end of the market — mainly to actors, pro athletes and politicians (who require signed NDAs) — have increased 700 percent this year compared with 2015, and overall sales have risen 150 percent. "Any time there is a turbulent political landscape, we see a spike in our sales. Given this election is as turbulent as it is, we are gearing up for an even bigger spike," says marketing director Brad Roberson of sales of bunkers that start at $39,000 and can run $8.35 million or more.

What to do about it? There are autonomous machines responsible, running without the guidance of any individual to generate profit, or establish control. These huge machines such as the military and yum brands cannot he dismantled under our economy. What is the solution? The culture is toxic and global.

Donald Trump is right though. Climate science IS fake news because those alarmist researchers are not factoring in the impact of the current expanding effect of clean energy startups (billions of dollars raised and given to problem-solvers, not problem-criers). This impact immediately breaks the core assumption of all fo their models, and it's by design. These fake news artisans pick the most convenient "models", then plug in some numbers and say "LOOK THE WORLD IS ENDING UNLESS YOU GIVE ME MONEY".

It's a classic trick to alarm the lower IQ factions of the population but I am glad we have level-headed men like Donald J. Trump at the top to take all the heat bravely but keep everything stable. Donald Trump will literally go down as the next Washington or Lincoln when the dust settles.

Except Donald hasn't made any kind of crime while in office. He is more akin to a Lincoln who was hated during his office (so hated he got shot) by the low IQ factions of the population.

I am personally surprised that Trump even dares to challenge climate alarmists because they have so much social power. I honestly did not think he was a man of such strong character but look at him go.

Sad. Clean energy startups ask for money from private VC funds and they have an actual plan. Climate alarmists want your tax money to fund their retardation, even though if they had a real solution they could just go to one of the countless VC funds hot on clean energy right now. But nope, it's really just a scam.

Is it really global warming though? With the added water vapour in the atmosphere you will see more snow fall during winter and this will become more difficult to remove, essentially extending winter/wet spring. If the summers get hot and dry, then forest fires will burn up large areas of carbon sinks and open up more land that will reflect solar radiation come winter. It doesn't seem at all certain that the long term trend will be warming; could judas likely turn into a glaciation period when snow packs last longer and longer each year until they just stick around.

But what's really up in the air is how the removal of so much ice weight at the poles is going to affect plate tectonics. I forsee more earthquakes and possible volcano activity in our near future as well.

Well, I don't know about that, but I do know that the central banks are the foundation of our modern economic system that gave us all of this prosperity. Any kind of regulation for them would probably end up fucking a lot of people up.

But well, historically there has never been some kind of big public outrage against central banks. If you have serious concerns then mobilize your fellow citizens.
