re: #567 Thanos

That’s general, doesn’t seem specific to the steppes. One of the mistakes made in communicating AGW problems is that Scientists take areas that are already at extreme end of scale and try to indicate that existing problems are outcomes of AGW (See here) when many people know better.

They would do better by focusing on how much the small rise we’ve seen already has raised the AC bills in TX to my mind. If you want to convince Americans, show them exactly where it’s hitting their pocket book.

Well Thanos, this got started with a comment about AGW leading to National Geographic showing photos of Mongolians. And as to the general issue of the deserts getting bigger, well you were the one who brought up the Gobi.

I really don’t understand your beef.


As to the effects on America. I think the papers I posted about our food production going getting reduced by 65-90% and the SW becoming uninhabitable because meltwater will dry up are some pretty good examples of stuff that I post about things right here. Ohhh and then there is the whole lose our major coastal cites part too.
