Global Warming Is Causing More Rain;
Indonesian Transgender Prostitutes Hardest Hit
Earlier I wrote about a "global warming" group that writes -- invents -- fake "news" stories about how global warming affects Real People Living Real Lives and plants them in the lazy, leftwing Gaslight Media.
Just the News highlighted one of their Fake Stories, released just in time for Easter -- global warming is making chocolate more expensive! Please like and share!Ahead of the Easter weekend, multiple media outlets reported that chocolate prices are soaring, and according to the coverage, the main culprit driving the inflating costs is climate change. Across multiple platforms, the reports followed a similar message, using similar language to describe the problem and its causes -- and the reports all came out the same week. "Easter egg prices soar as cocoa crops are hit by climate crisis and exploitation," the Guardian reported on Good Friday. The article blames the shortage of cocoa, which is used to make chocolate, on rising prices of fertilizers, deforestation, illegal mining practices and "extreme weather events."Spoiler: This is all made up. Just the News checked the easily-found data and reports that cocoa yields are up, not down, in the recent past.
They're seriously telling "journalists" to just make up climate panic stories, even when they have absolutely no evidence. I'm sure the "journalists" were already inclined to do so, but now they have "Experts" telling them that it's ethical to just make up political lies. I mention this because, courtesy of Matt Walsh, I think I've found another fake story suggested by this group.
[The "journalist" responsible for this propaganda lie] didn't respond to questions if he was aware of this data or if he ever sought it out.
The Guardian, NPR and The Conversation are among the hundreds of media outlets associated with or listed as partners with an organization called Covering Climate Now (CCN), which encourages reporters to insert "climate crisis" narratives into all their stories.
Covering Climate Now boasts partnerships with hundreds of major media outlets across the world. According to CCN, its partners have a combined audience of 2 billion people -- one-fourth of the globe's population -- in 57 countries. The group provides advice to reporters on all beats to not only insert a "climate crisis" narrative into every beat, but also how to cover the topic. This includes telling journalists not to platform what it calls "denialists," which includes anyone who "ridicules" climate activists or suggests that climate change is not producing a global emergency. The site is full of tips on what language to use, how to write headlines and suggested stories for journalists to cover, all in line with an anti-fossil [fuel] message.... ... The organization encourages reporters to make statements attributing "extreme weather" to climate change, even in the absence of any data to support the claims. "Even in the absence of explicit attribution data, it's accurate to say that climate change is making extreme weather more common and more severe," CCN tells its partnered media organizations. It then provides tips for language journalists can use to blame "extreme weather" on climate change for any story.
This ain't no prank, Jack! Published April 3rd. Not April 1st.
They said the thing! They said the thing!
Joya Patiha, a 43-year-old Indonesian transgender woman, first started to notice that changing weather patterns in the mountain-ringed city of Bandung were affecting her income as a sex worker a decade ago. The rainy season was lasting longer across the West Java province, winds were stronger and in some particularly bad years Patiha lost up to 80% of her earnings. Trans women like Patiha are among the most affected by extreme weather linked to climate change, as well as suffering disproportionately when disasters strike. "No one is coming out during the longer rainy season," said Patiha. "It is very hard to make money during that unpredictable weather." Indonesia is particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, and trans women, who tend to face more stigma and marginalisation than trans men or other LGBTQ+ Indonesians, are also among those hardest hit by extreme weather.
According to the The Independent, it's a bad thing that a prostitute has left prostitution for a career in the theater. What the hell am I saying? It's all made up!
That's because many trans women, like Patiha, are shut out of the formal economy and survive as buskers and sex workers, occupations that rely on them being able to solicit clients outdoors. Sherly Wijayanto, a 28-year-old trans woman from the capital Jakarta, worked as a busker for around seven years until the increasingly volatile weather made her seek other options. "I no longer want to endure the heat and rain on the streets," said Wijayanto, who joined trans-led arts group Sanggar Seroja, where she now sings with the theatre company and runs the social media channel.
None of this is true. None.
As well as seeking to adapt their precarious livelihoods to the new climate reality, these women and the groups that support them are also seeking to raise awareness of the challenges posed by extreme weather in a nation composed of more than 17,000 islands. Despite gender-fluid communities being historically accepted in Indonesia, a rising tide of conservative Islam in the world's largest Muslim-majority country has fuelled anti-LGBTQ+ persecution.
"Those outside the binary category are often labelled with the category 'deviant', (and) associated with the causes of environmental problems and disasters," said Darmawan, who has researched how climate change affects trans Indonesians.

And since that prediction didn't come true they decided to ban fertilizers and then point to Global Warming when there isn't adequate crop yield in a mature technology.

This is before all the construction overruns, of course.
When asked why such an expensive plant was needed, city spokesmen said, among other things, that "global warming" was going to cause more landslides into the reservoir that provides Portland's drinking water, so a more expensive plant was needed to deal with all the dirt in the water from the extra landslides.

UN climate chief presses for faster action, says humans have 2 years left 'to save the world'

1) The entire planet is warming
2) The cause is the increased CO2 from man's industrial revolution
3) A warmer planet is a net detriment to mankind
4) Humanity can stop the warming AND keep it at the "right" level of heat.
Personally, I'm agnostic on 1), but given the actions of the people desperate to prove it, I lean toward it being false.
2,3, and 4 are completely unproven.
But that won't stop our "betters" from destroying millions (billions?) of lives.

There's a missing step in there that most true believers don't know is a necessary step for the whole theory to work:
Increased CO2 leads to increased water vapor.
CO2 is a weak greenhouse gas. Water vapor is much stronger. CO2 cannot do, on its own, what the scientists assert is happening. It has to be something else. They settled on water vapor, however they simply cannot prove the causal relationship between the two.

Turbidity in water is indeed a problem in water treatment plants, because the chlorine doesn't come into contact with the interior of the bits of dirt in the water.

McDonald's $25 Deal Angers Customers, Shows Damage California's $20 Minimum Wage Is Doing to Fast-Food Industry

I was told something years ago that I've always remembered and watched in effect.
A Big Mac meal at McDonalds is always pretty much the same as minimum wage. Almost like there's a connection.

Eh, I think most accept that water vapor re-emits radiation. That's just a simple energy measurement. Not sure about the CO2 -> water vapor link there.
The overall problem is that CO2 re-emission is dwarfed by water vapor's re-emission and CO2 only re-emits two parts of the EM spread.

This partnership marks a significant milestone toward realizing the shared vision of President Joe Biden and Indonesian President Joko Widodo to accelerate the U.S.-Indonesian partnership in key areas including tackling the climate crisis. USAID aims to contribute up to $50 million over five years, subject to the availability of funds, toward achieving the agreement’s climate and biodiversity objectives, enhance Indonesia’s resilience against climate change, and improve conservation and biodiversity—including protecting Indonesia’s iconic species, such as the orangutan.
The United States stands ready with the Government of Indonesia to embrace opportunities that come with the green economy and reduce emissions by protecting forests and peatlands. To support the MOEF’s goals, USAID will coordinate closely with the Government of Indonesia at all levels and with local, national, and international stakeholders. ...

I'm reminded of an incident with a college football player and a girl in his school a few years ago. There was video so you could watch it unfold.
She approached him in a restaurant, got in his face and started screaming. About what...I don't know. He got up and actually seemed to be trying to calmly respond but she got angrier and slapped him several times at her full strength. He pulled back and punched her, once, at full strength in the face and she fell back like a rag doll.
She spent...6 months?...in the hospital and he went to jail.

Spoilers: She got her ass beat by a raider in the first episode and wound up stabbed in the gut. She wounded him and got away, but later her caught up to her and her dad rescued her. This was after they established she has significant weapons training.

The relentless advance of climate change brought more drought, flooding and heatwaves to communities around the world last year, compounding threats to people’s lives and livelihoods, the UN’s World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said on Friday.
Insufficient water adds to hardship faced by civilians, IDPs throughout Myanmar
People in three states told Myanmar Now about the difficulties they face in getting sufficient water, a problem that has become worse with climate change and increased privation due to conflict
Climate change is burning through the economy — with 13% of Americans reporting hardship from weather disasters in the last year, Treasury says.

The trillion or so in student loan debt has already been paid for with the loan. Modern Monetary Theory would claim that as long as the economy is growing and inflation is under control, the USA can print to infinity.

Strange how leftists *spit* don't trivialize the Holocaust whenever they call conservatives Nazis.

It's becoming a theme in leftist writing that the Nazi swastika is now good because it's being used against Jews.
They don't even touch on the Hindu origins of the symbol, either.

I personally witnessed the lower crop yields in the farm next to me due to decreased fertilizer application. What used to be taken away by three tractor trailer loads was little more then half that. They applied it with one row yes fertilizer, one row without.
One row brilliant green growth, one row lime green growth. One row a foot tall, one row nine inches tall. I pointed it out to my wife from a certain angle where you could see about 20 rows and she was amazed at the difference. Stripes.

I used to work for some Dot Indians and this one guy had swastikas drawn all over the money safe. I know it's a Hindooooooo good luck charm but on the other hand the guy was such a humongous piece of shit maybe he meant it the other way.
As an aside, if you ever want to become racist against Indians just start working for them. Seriously, works like a charm. You'll come to hate them with a burning passion.

Granted, I did skip a couple of steps. Israel commits genocide being the big one.
Swastika is now a sign of fighting oppression.
And, remember, all efforts at fighting oppression are good, no matter what.

I understood and wasnt correcting you.
And I'm pretty certain the Nazis would have told you they were fighting oppression.
The greatest trick the Left ever pulled was that the Nazis were cartoonishly evil for no purported reason and didn't see or claim themselves as mere victims of a particular oppressor class.

Wanna see someone loose their shit? Ask them to prove every part of that.
Available data strongly disputes that CO2 at current levels is doing anything to the climate. I won't disagree with reducing it, ideally by tax breaks on building / maintaining nuclear power plants, but as-is it's clearly not catastrophic.

"When my team and I went to South Korea, we were floored at the level of digitization and real-time monitoring of shipbuilding progress, with readily available information down to individual pieces of stock materials," Del Toro said.
"Their top executives could tell us to the day when ships would be delivered," he said. That's a stark difference from the US, which is facing problems with its shipbuilding capacity, labor availability, and resources.

They were driving me around one night in their big-ass Mercedes, and we somehow wound up in a park with lots of prostitutes, both straight and trans.
I thought them grotesque, but my hosts apparently did not: the car windshield got all fogged up inside, in no time. Pant. Pant.
A few years ago I saw one of the gang members getting all hot and bothered seeing Walton Goggins as a tranny on "Sons of Anarchy", and it took me back in time....

1) The entire planet is warming
2) The cause is the increased CO2 from man's industrial revolution
3) A warmer planet is a net detriment to mankind
4) Humanity can stop the warming AND keep it at the "right" level of heat.
Personally, I'm agnostic on 1), but given the actions of the people desperate to prove it, I lean toward it being false.
2,3, and 4 are completely unproven.
But that won't stop our "betters" from destroying millions (billions?) of lives.
Posted by: Formerly Virginian at April 11, 2024 12:18 PM (zjgNU)
Since a warmer planet would create a longer growing-season, Point #3 is pretty much false. The hysteria with which they say "1.5 degree Celsius increase in a century .... reee!!!!" is an indicator. There are three temperature scales and the one used for astronomical phenomena is Kelvin. 20 degrees C increasing to 21.5 degrees C sounds much more dire, than 293.15 K increasing to 294.15 K. But they express the same temperature, just using a different scale.
