The problem is that people can feel that something is coming.

But it doesn't help that the MSmockingbirdM sells hysteria.
Nor does it help that there are some very bad people trying to get rich off of the people's care for their planet.

Like the R-12 ozone thing... what was wrong with R-12?
Its patent was running out.

However, the people working with "grand solar minimum" have accurately predicted the temperature every year for a decade now.
We are entering an ice age.

We are also seeing the end of Big-Ag as oil based fertilizers are leaving the ground almost barren.

The sun is undoubtedly the biggest factor affecting climate. Yet nobody talks about the sun spots or its cycles because they know it'll mess up their narrative.

Milutin Milanković
Milutin Milanković (Serbian Cyrillic: Милутин Миланковић [milǔtin milǎːnkɔʋitɕ]; 28 May 1879 – 12 December 1958) was a Serbian mathematician, astronomer, climatologist, geophysicist, civil engineer and popularizer of science.
Milanković gave two fundamental contributions to global science. The first contribution is the "Canon of the Earth’s Insolation", which characterizes the climates of all the planets of the Solar system. The second contribution is the explanation of Earth's long-term climate changes caused by changes in the position of the Earth in comparison to the Sun, now known as Milankovitch cycles.

I agree with Milankovic except that he assumes the sun is static. The sun is far from static. The sun goes through cycles like it is breathing. We are entering a long solar minimum, like the end of an exhale. The next solar maximum will be in 2024. Sunspot activity is increasing. The Schumann Resonance is doubling and tripling intermittently with increasing frequency.
I am 50 years old. When I was young the sun was yellow, now it is white and I burn faster.
I included some links for further review.

Schumann resonances
The Schumann resonances (SR) are a set of spectrum peaks in the extremely low frequency (ELF) portion of the Earth's electromagnetic field spectrum. Schumann resonances are global electromagnetic resonances, generated and excited by lightning discharges in the cavity formed by the Earth's surface and the ionosphere.

Drakos the problem is you conflate headlines and single predictions, as opposed to hard science.
We have had many-many indicators and there has been extreme proof of what is going on.

And then you show red herrings of atrocities which are important that we need to handle as well.

But, as it turns out had we been handling climate change the atroities you listed would not be as extreme and in some cases not exist at all.

Food security is less possible because of the disappearance of arrid land (either from lack of water or flooding),

Dependence and support of Aggressive Regimes occurs because they have fossil fuels.

Pollution of the environment with waste products in many events happens because a lack of alternatives.

The problem is in large complex systems you can either spend much more time and energy , to handle all the problems if you do not deal with exacerbating causes.

I am not going to go into a long issue by issue debate. But even small change against status quo, takes extreme actions and vocaling by minorities.

Here is my take on the subject. If Climate Change is real then why the hell are the Politicians, Scientists and actors using more Fossil Fuels than anyone.... flying all over the earth telling people they need to reduce their Carbon Emissions. Friggin Hypocrites.

First thing, it is the rare politician that actually cares.

So, if the climate change castrophists were actually correct, and the world ends in fire in 10 years, those politicians wouldn't do anything inconvenient.

But they will do things that make them look good in all the other rich people's eyes. Have to have the expensive car, and arrive on the private jet. If you fall on hard times and can only afford a Cadillac, you are just forgotten by that crowd.

Second thing, a single volcano produces more CO2 than all of humanity.
Further, CO2 doesn't affect temperature. (Al Gore proved this)
And the plants could really use some more CO2 in the atmosphere.

So, instantly we can see that those politicians just want something to tax.
The more they tax, the more money they get.


I wouldn't call those congress-critters hypocrites, they are pure evil.
(if only they were just hypocrites)

What a pleasure to read a critical article; almost feels like heresy today, because it's not allowed to discuss it.
Imagine another scenario: The catastrophic climate change is true, but it's not because of greenhouse emissions. Nobody seems to be looking at that.

You should rewind your timeline further back. Thomas Malthus was whinging about how overpopulation was gonna mess everything up, especially global food supply, in the 1700s.
Overpopulation is off the environmentalists' agenda for um political reasons.

We also have Victoria aged authors complaining about pollution.

Then there are all the Mayan amd Biblical predictions which may have been local, but many of those civilizations collapsed partly because of environmental factors.

I despise single use plastics and conserve way more energy than my neighbors (they put the average up and I think they lower it to encourage conservation). However, I can't really get on the whole carbon trading scheme because it is just monetizing the whole thing.

The timeline goes back through centuries and millenia. I focused on the recent past, so people realize the contemporary disinformation being pushed into the masses, and hopefully wake up.

You mention several good points here, I also want to mention some points from my experience working in sustainable development in Latin America.

The areas we live in are experiencing increasing temperatures, and especially here in the tropics we can attribute much of this to decreasing shade (tree cover) and the urban heat island effect (concrete effect).

We advocate agroforestry systems and other design solutions to many local problems associated with development. People here are working hard to 'develop', they are not thinking the world is going to end, and if it does start to end let me tell you that these hardy people will find a way to make markets and keep living.

Good point. Big cities are a big source of heat. Suburb temperatures are temperate on average, but when you go downtown on the same day or night, summer or winter, you can feel a drastic change with a higher temperature.

Urban development destroys habitat and exerts great pressure on wild life. But on the other hand there are vast areas on this planet that are not urbanized where wild life still thrives. So naturally, ecologists will put the focus on the disturbed areas as if the whole planet is suffering the same outcome, which is far from the truth. Bringing awareness about the negative human impact on ecosystems (pollution, habitat destruction, garbage dumping) is a noble endeavour, I fully support that, but blaming everything on climate change and using it as a political tool is where I draw the line. Politicians will say and endorse anything to help their campaigns, yet they are among the biggest polluters (private jets, big houses, lobbies, industrial contracts). I'm yet to see any of those hypocrites take the bus or bicycle to go to work.

A recent example of political hypocrisy is Canada's prime minister Justin Trudeau, he got busted with blackface on numerous counts in his past, so what does he do? He blames his fuck up on his "privilege" and blames the rest of Canada for being "a racist country"! The art of deflection at its best. And that same prime minister smiled to the cameras with Greta on his side a couple days ago, to make him look good. If he doesn't, he will get canceled. But even with the blackface fiasco, he's still around. These people get away with anything, they lecture us about how we should behave, yet they do the opposite and hide/lie about it. (Exit tangeant).

Here is my take on the subject. If Climate Change is real then why the hell are the Politicians, Scientists and actors using more Fossil Fuels than anyone.... flying all over the earth telling people they need to reduce their Carbon Emissions. Friggin Hypocrites.

Do as they say, not as they do. Here's a pure example of their hypocrisy where Extinction Rebellion co-Leader Skeena Rathor repeatedly dodges and refuses to answer a simple question: do you have a TV and electronic devices at home. Also, according to her, the climate change crap should be a collective effort, yet paradoxically, SHE shouldn't be counted as part of the effort!?

From 1970

Today :D

The armadillo is playing ping pong.

Yes, those bastards are walking for no reason. Because they are walking, they need to eat. And when they eat, they fart and exhaling CO2. And CO2 is ruining everything. Shoot those bastards before they destroy the planet

I am not sure that armadillo's fart CO2 (carbon dioxide), I may be wrong, but like most critters they fart hydrogen sulfide (CH4). That is a little different from CO2.

CO2 is good and essential for plants to live. CH4? It stinks (hell it is a fart), and is pretty flammable.

Am I a chemist? No, just used to light my farts when I was in the Corps for laughs. I also fart CH4 more so now that I am up in age. Lots of fiber in my diet.

...be very careful writing with commonsense and logic in these parts...lol

Interesting post. Enjoyable, entertaining and educational. The more viewpoints we listen to, the better we understand the problem and it’s solutions. And all solutions don’t involve mankind.
Thanks for sharing.

Not only sun cycles and spots, but also our procession through the universe. A wise man once said.

"He who has no carbon footprint should cast the first carbon tax."

Ok. I was the one who said that. Great article @drakos!


I agree 110% with the content of this post! It is actually fantastic if you ask me! This post is well thought out and I consider outstanding content! Evidently many others think it worth commenting on as well! Look at the number of comments! Wow, I am jealous!

Much better than the first post which I perceived to be, low energy.

Now, here is a picture of a cat-fight for those of you that don't read posts thoroughly, but just read the comments for entertainment value...

Thought I would share the above gif as the comments are pretty civil on this post.

So it seems @felipejoys is not happy with @drakos, his post, or my comment saying why I liked @drakos' post here. I am asuming this is why he is downvoting me. Well thank you for the downvote and here is why @felipejoys!

I assume you read my comment. I am glad that my opinion has grabbed your attention! I just noticed that your downvote manna is at around 0.31% that is a great deal of downvoting. I also counted around six posts on your blog that were just the same thing over and over. I checked out your blog because I was curious as to who you were and what type of content you shared on Steem. Never heard of you.

I am curious as to why you have used your delegation in such a manner? I mean it is your business, but I will restate to you what I tell everyone. I am not intimidated by anyone. Your downvote is a waste of time and manna.

I will tell you what I told @coininstant and friends (maybe he will upvote me for mentioning him): I will upvote what I wish, agree with what I wish, and your downvote does nothing more than bring me attention. Thank you for that. I appreciate it. This is all about me, baby. I mean it was me you downvoted, no?

Have a nice week and good fortune on #newsteem! Now let's get some popcorn for the shit-storm this comment will bring!

On STEEM, EOS or BITSHARES? have crypto?

Self proclaimed community watchdogs are actually hacking and stalking people.

This group https://steemit.com/@steemspeak is ran by https://steemit.com/@fyrstikken, They are hacking people that enter this discord server https://discordapp.com/invite/sqxV63P . Once you are hacked they profile you long enough to know all of your activities. They introduce workplace gangstalking visits and bring it to your attention cleverly and discretely so only you get it. They are very covert and tricky with everything they say and do in this server. Some claim to have worked for or are working with the FBI and the NSA. Mixed with decommissioned traders and coding criminals, Its a scary mix of creepy people and their intent is to drive you crazy and deplete everything you have ever acquired in life, even your freedom.

My hacking started with them introducing ransomware that has options, dump my coin or delete my system drive. They acknowledged this to me in the server as it happened.

This hacking and stalking is done so they can manipulate the target to pump and dump for them. Threatening and Making victims wear head phones, so nobody in your household can hear thier dramatization towards you. In 2017 this server was side marked as a drama show for entertainment purposes only as an excuse to say whatever they want all the way down to killing a politician. They have a server side command called "hey asshole" making a prompt come up instructing everyone to wear headphones. They want everyone wearing headphones so nobody in your vicinity can hear them mess with you. Fystikken says its because of "mic feedback" but once your a target you get exactly why they make everyone wear headphones.

With headphones on they subliminally direct victims with very low suggestive whispers mixed into their radio shows music. Combine this with them being able to manipulate their own individual outputs sound volume, which they control on the server side, they can pick what individual people hear at any given time. They decide who you hear on the server and change the volume controls for them. They can make some really low or off for those trying to investigate. They control who hears what and know who is who.

This team will find absolutely everything they can about you prior to using their suggestive and threatening program. They Introduce pictures that mean something only to the target, inducing paranoia while they watch and listen thru all of your circumvented devices. They are very aware of what makes you tick. They know your work schedule and use it for work stalking along side of this. I received multiple threatening letters to my work and home addressed to my screen name from this group.

Fyrstikken tells people they are drafted like they did with Facebook at the beginning. He says Facebook was started by forced labor and V2K controlled slaves, just like he creates with his gang for steem and crypto. "Get to work bitch" he tells people once circumvented and intimidated.

Human trafficking is worse than drugs.

The Greta post was to underline the ridiculousness of the issue. This post was to prove it.

Good job. Appreciate you clarifying your thoughts and conclusions. Great post!

There is nothing to fear except fear itself.

Shame on those who use fear to manipulate others into doing their bidding.
