    Ever hear of HAARP built in 1993?
    Could of caused the Earthquake in Turkey and maybe even zapped up some wildfires in Canada.

        All that's missing is some cartoon smoke and fireman emojis to get across this message across to the sheeple:

        SUMMER HEAT? NOPE! THE END IS HERE UNLESS YOU TAKE GOV'T APPROVED ACTIONS TO SAVE THE WORLD.

          Obviously you didn't bother reading it did you?

          What is happening now is NOT a normal summer heatwave.

          It's the first time an event of this magnitude has been recorded.

              This is the first year in a long time that I haven't had to turn my AC on yet.

                Ah! Right! So that minutia of trivia totally outweighs these facts?
                Got it.

                      On July 21st, 1983, Vostok Station experienced the coldest air temperature ever recorded on Earth, a bone-chilling -128.6 degrees Fahrenheit. This is cold enough to give you frostbite almost instantly, and it is incredibly unsafe to go outside, even covered in warm clothing.


                      Currently, the highest officially registered temperature is 56.7C (134F), recorded in California's Death Valley back in 1913. The hottest known temperature in Africa is 55C (131F), recorded in Kebili, Tunisia in 1931.

                        One of the few advantages that come with age – and believe me, there aren’t many – is that one can look back at all the predictions made by futurists that turned out to be wrong. I am still waiting to travel in my flying car or by jet pack. Unless I missed the news, we still have not colonized the moon or Mars. And those colonies at the bottom of the ocean have yet to materialize.

                        One area where it seems particularly wrought with inaccurate predictions is climate. In the 1960s we were all going to die from famine driven by overpopulation. We were heading for a new ice age in the 1970s. The oceans were going to be void of fish and the hole in the ozone layer was going to kill us all. Then we started to hear about global warming and the predictions became even more dire. When that didn’t happen, the green mafia coined the phrase "climate change" to basically blame any natural disaster or unusual weather event as yet another human-driven greed and gluttony.

                          24/7, Hareeba: 'We're burning alive'

                          May 23, 2023: ABC: NOAA predicts a scorching summer for Southern California Summer is less than a month away, and experts say Southern California can expect hotter than average temperatures. [Fukkin experts again.]

                          July 1st, 2023: For the first time since 1877 the temperature in downtown Los Angeles DID NOT ONCE reach 80 degrees in the months of May & June. The streak ended on July 2nd, 70 days.

                            So that little piece of trivia somehow overrides the fact that the planet has just experienced the hottest day ever recorded?

                            Does that not in the least ring some sort of alarm bell with you?

                              so what's your solution? Carbon tax? No more using fossil fuel? No more eating meat?

                                Las Vegas did not hit 100 degrees until June 30th. Broke a standing record held since the 1940’s or something as such.. One can make a small case for either side of the argument.

                                But why should the Government force people to follow their elitist and greedy power grab.

                                    No. The Sun can influence Earth’s climate, but it isn’t responsible for the warming trend we’ve seen over recent decades. The Sun is a giver of life; it helps keep the planet warm enough for us to survive. We know subtle changes in Earth’s orbit around the Sun are responsible for the comings and goings of the ice ages.

                                    weather.gov

                                    Times of maximum sunspot activity are associated with a very slight increase in the energy output from the sun. Ultraviolet radiation increases dramatically during high sunspot activity, which can have a large effect on the Earth's atmosphere. The converse is true during minimum sunspot activity.

                                      As time goes on, the amount of mass lost by the Sun will increase, particularly as it enters the giant phase of its life. But even at this relatively steady rate, the growth of helium in the Sun's core means that we will heat up here on planet Earth. After about 1-to-2 billion years, the Sun will be burning hot enough that Earth's oceans will boil away entirely, making liquid water impossible on the surface of our planet. As the Sun gets lighter and lighter, it will counterintuitively get hotter and hotter. Our planet has already used up approximately three-quarters of the time we have where Earth is habitable. As the Sun continues to lose mass, humanity and all life on Earth approaches its inevitable fate. Let's make these last billion-or-so years count.

                                          So you are just going to keep on ignoring all the evidence?
                                          Just like you don't believe Biden won the election.
                                          Just like you don't see Trump's guilt on so many fronts.

                                            Just like you don't believe Biden won the election.
                                            Just like you don't see Trump's guilt on so many fronts.
                                            Just like you believe Trump colluded with Russia.
                                            Just like you believe Trump incited violence
                                            Just like you believe there was an insurrection on J6
                                            Just like you believe the 51 former intelligence officials who said the Hunter laptop story was Russian disinformation.
                                            Just like you believe Adam Schiff when he repeatedly lied saying he saw evidence of collusion with his own eyes
                                            I can name at least 2 dozens other lies you choose to believe that aren't true.

                                            So you are just going to keep on ignoring all the evidence?

This is cold enough to give you frostbite almost instantly, and it is incredibly unsafe to go outside, even covered in warm clothing.


                                              Currently, the highest officially registered temperature is 56.7C (134F), recorded in California's Death Valley back in 1913. The hottest known temperature in Africa is 55C (131F), recorded in Kebili, Tunisia in 1931.

                                              The hottest I was in was Vegas at about 110F...yikes! Everyone walked in the shade of the hotel signs and bill boards.
                                              My ice cold beer was warm in minutes after leaving the casino.
                                              What's the hottest/coldest you guyz have endured?

                                                The coldest extreme I ever endured was when I told my girlfriend that I thought her sister was very attractive

                                                She asked me, but I didn't realize it was a trap at the time

                                                  I think the solution starts with continuing to focus renewable energy and governmental regulation that makes it standard as soon as possible. Minimizing or compensating for carbon emissions in the meantime. Can make a real difference

                                                  But I definitely believe this whole thing of putting it on the individual consumer to be "more environmentally responsible" has always been a bullshit approach. If I personally recycle and quit eating meat and buy an electric car, awesome, I'll have made a 0.000001% difference in our nation's carbon emissions. The answers always needed to come from the top and be sweeping and systemic, it was simply easier for them to be greedy and push a sense of environmental responsibility on the little people

                                                    That's a real trick question when you get genetics involved. Most sisters have probably been told before that they had a striking resemblance to their sibling, so if you said her sister wasn't attractive you might have gotten in trouble for that too

                                                        Definitely the hottest place was Bangkok. I just flew in from New Zealand and Melbourne, Australia which were nice and warm, and as soon as those automatic doors at the Bangkok airport opened and I walked out, it was like stepping into an oven. The heat just punched me in the face. I remember thinking WTF NO fukking way people can live here. Luckily I seem to adapt pretty well to hot weather. I enjoyed Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar and Laos very much. I sweated the entire trip but got used to it almost immediately. AC is a must in the city but the islands there was always a nice breeze. When I went to Chiang Mae in the north, it was pretty cold at times.

                                                        In the Caribbean where I am now, its almost as hot but the trade winds make a huge difference. You can get away without ac when sleeping depending on where your bedroom is facing. If no window is facing northeast, then you certainly need ac to sleep.

                                                        Coldest place was in Toronto in the 90's around New Years.

                                                              this after all is a place to share ideas once in awhile rather than just hurling insults and statistics. It's kinda funny how he's repeatedly claimed he's blocked posters because they refused to answer his questions.

                                                              My question still remains to anyone who is a far left activist like hareeballs and others. What should humanity do about it? Are you in favor of torching the sky like they are reporting recently in order block the sun's ray to cool the Earth? Do we go back to the horse and buggy? Ban all plastic and rubber products? Do we eat lab grown meat and bugs? Do you really believe electric cars are eco friendly? If so, what powers the charging stations and what happens to the old batteries?

                                                              I don't have the answers. I try and limit my carbon footprint when I can but I probably can do more. I bet all of us could. So its hotter. Ok fine. I like warmer much better than colder. There's tons of water in the oceans and desalinization plants work great. I live on an island. There are 2 plants here taking in sea water and turning it into some of the cleanest drinking water in the world. You don't need to buy plastic bottles of water but people still do. Speaking of, why aren't 7/11's equipped with filtered water stations where you can fill up your used water bottles for a fraction on the cost of a brand new bottle? Imagine filling up your old water bottle for 5 or 10 cents rather than $1 for a new one?

There will be technologies we can't yet imagine in the future that allow humans to survive man made or natural changes to the environment.

                                                                    Based on what I've read from climate scientists who study this stuff for a living, there is a genuine threat of Earth becoming uninhabitable within the next century or so, and that's messed up. Future generations deserve our best effort.

                                                                    And personally, I live in Florida, almost every year there are more hurricane threats than the year before, climatologists attribute that to climate change, and I fully believe it. The planet is already feeling many of the effects of global warming, far beyond "hottest day ever", perhaps we've dodged a few bullets and are lucky that it hasn't already been worse
