Yawn.

Conjunctions are no big deal.

And they are totally predictable, and have no consequences.

lol, wrong thread (it's deleted now), sorry.

That´s nothing. What worries me most of all is that the earth doesn´t seem to be flat after all. Looks like I´ll have to re-think a whole lot of stuff.....

Actually the picture is of Typhoon Maysak which was raging in the Pacific last March.

This however is Patricia

Now that proves it.  See, all the images have the same fisheye lens effect.  Therefore if it's rounded, it's flat.

Don't worry, the earth has kept it's flatness.

http://wattsupwiththat.com/2015/10/26/did-we-really-save-the-ozone-layer/

In an effort to save the ozone layer, 29 nations and the European Community signed the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer in September of 1987. Over the next decade, the Protocol was universally signed by 197 nations, agreeing to ban the use of CFCs. Since 1986, world consumption of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) is down more than 99 percent, effectively reaching zero by 2010.

The Montreal Protocol has been hailed as an international success in resolving a major environmental issue. The Protocol has been praised as an example to follow for elimination of greenhouse gas emissions in the fight to halt global warming. But despite the elimination of CFCs, the Ozone Hole remains as large as ever.

Yeah, I guess you´re right. It has always seemed pretty flat to me. Anyway, if it really were a spinning ball we wouldn´t have the same time simultaneously all over the world. This is the clincher, strange how nobody mentions it.

From the British Antarctic Survey Ozone Bulletin:


Antarctic Situation at 2015 October 26

Antarctic ozone today:  Ozone depletion remains extensive and the ozone hole covers most of Antarctica.  The ozone hole grew rapidly from mid August onwards and peaked at some 26 million square kilometres in the first half of October.  It is slowly beginning to shrink and is now around 23 million square kilometres.  This is the largest hole that has been recorded at this time of year.  The ozone distribution is that of late mid spring with ozone amounts over the continent beginning to recover from their minimum, and higher values around the Southern Ocean.   Values currently range from around 130 DU over Dronning Maud Land, to nearly 400 DU over parts of the Southern Ocean.  These highest values are lower than at the same time last year.  There are significant differences between the various satellite measurements.  Temperatures in the lower part of the ozone layer are still below the threshold for Polar Stratospheric Cloud (PSC) formation over parts of Antarctica and the area with PSCs remains larger than average, but is rapidly decreasing.  Through most of the ozone layer temperatures are below the long term average but are warming and in the higher parts of the ozone layer are above the PSC formation threshold.   The polar vortex is larger than average in size.

The 2015 ozone hole:  Meteorological conditions were favourable for the creation of a significant ozone hole, with a stable polar vortex.  Ozone hole levels were briefly reached over the Antarctic Peninsula on August 5 and over Halley the next day in a dynamic event.  Significant ozone depletion over the continent began in mid August.  Depletion became more widespread by September, exceeding the mean for the last decade and greater than in the last couple of years.  Ozone declined by about 1% per day near the centre of the ozone hole.   The ozone hole peaked at some 26 million square kilometres in the first half of October.  It was the largest ever for the time of year in the second half of October.  The polar vortex was the largest over the past decade in the upper part of the ozone layer from July to September and the area with PSCs was also larger than average during this period.  Halley station saw its lowest ozone values since 2011....et cetera....

Hmmm, 26 million square kilometers seems pretty substantial. Let me see...Russia´s land area is about 17 mil km2, U.S.A. about 10.....And these two combined account for like one fifth of the planet´s land area. This friggin´hole can´t have been this big there in the eighties when everybody was gonna die unless they stopped spraying stuff.

Energy Department smashes pumpkins for causing climate change






How scary are your jack-o’-lanterns? Scarier than you think, according to the Energy Department, which claims the holiday squash is responsible for unleashing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

Most of the 1.3 billion pounds of pumpkins produced in the U.S. end up in the trash, says the Energy Department’s website, becoming part of the “more than 254 million tons of municipal solid waste (MSW) produced in the United States every year.”

Municipal solid waste decomposes into methane, “a harmful greenhouse gas that plays a part in climate change, with more than 20 times the warming effect of carbon dioxide,” Energy says.

What’s a Halloween-loving pumpkin carver to do?

Turn that pumpkin in to … energy?

Municipal solid waste can be used to harness bioenergy, the Energy Department says, which can help the U.S. become less dependent on carbon-based fuels while limiting stress on landfills by reducing waste. The agency has partnered with industry to develop and test two integrated biorefineries — “facilities capable of efficiently converting plant and waste material into affordable biofuels, biopower and other products.”

Neither of these proposed facilities is operational yet, but someday, all that squishy, orange squash could become clean, green energy.

Until then, happy carving!

Notice how they play up one number in comparison to the other.

NOAA withholds climate documents from Congress


The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has refused to answer an Oct. 13 subpoena from by Rep. Lamar Smith (R) of Texas, chairman of the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology. Rep. Smith, a prominent climate change denier, demanded that internal communications surrounding a recent climate change study by NOAA scientists be turned over to his committee for examination.

Thomas Karl, the director of NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information, published the paper in question in a June issue of the peer-reviewed journal Science. By explaining relevant data trends, Karl and his colleagues dispute “the notion of a ‘slowdown’ in the increase of global surface temperature” and argue climate change is as prevalent as ever.

Smith, who regularly tries to disprove climate change, insists the NOAA scientists manipulated data to get the “results they needed to advance this administration’s extreme climate change agenda.”

[...]
The agency says it has given the committee all data and information available to the public, as well as explanatory briefings on the research. And the agency says their obligations to the committee end there.

“Because the confidentiality of these communications among scientists is essential to frank discourse among scientists, those documents were not provided to the Committee,” the agency told Nature. “It is a long-standing practice in the scientific community to protect the confidentiality of deliberative scientific discussions.”

Yep.




But it needs a little extra touch

Most of the 1.3 billion pounds (enough to fill 4500 Olympic Swimming Pools) of pumpkins produced in the U.S. end up in the trash, says the Energy Department’s website, becoming part of the “more than 254 million tons of municipal solid waste (MSW) produced in the United States every year.”

So why again are climate change skeptics/deniers so threatening, if their views are so kooky? I mean, half the submissions on /r/science are completely off the mark and probably make most of the authors facepalm, anyway.

Because there are lots of billions invested in the scarecrow called "global warming".

Not just that, but the United Nations / NWO is based on it. IMHO of course.
