It's far worse than that.

The "Ice Age" animals melting out of the so called permafrost?

It means that conditions today are approaching what they were
during to so called ice age. That's the only way "Ice Age"
animals could get into what we call "Permafrost."

Check this out:

https://www.businesstoday.in/visualstories/news/turning-green-nasa-discovers-transformation-of-sahara-desert-amid-heavy-rainfall-174404-27-09-2024

If the Sahara is greening, as they claim, it's getting colder.

Remember: The Sahara was a lot greener prior to climate optimum.
But as the earth warmed up, as the climate got further & further
away from it's "Ice Age" norms the Sahara desert began to form.

And NASA is describing those pre climate optimum conditions...

No, actually. If the Sahara is greening it means it is getting WETTER.

We're not having a debate here.

The Sahara desert formed during climate optimum, only AFTER
the climate put some distance from the cold of the "Ice Age."

The Sahara was green when the earth was colder.

The so called "Permafrost" wasn't there during "The ice age."

While all you say MAY be true, it isn't necessarily so that if (accepted
arguendo) the Sahara is greening NOW, it is only because it's getting
cooler.

Hot temperatures with more MOISTURE would result in the Sahara getting
greener.

The Sahara is getting hotter. Not much doubt. Pretty much everywhere on
the equator is getting warmer around 1/2 the global rate.

This is what even the models created by Exxon 50y ago confirmed.

According to the plots of the few met stations out there, the desert is
not so much getting wetter but the rain events -- when they happen --
produce a few more mm than they used to. For each 1C warmer air holds
around 17% more water vapor.

The trends for increasing temps are robust.
But the trendlines for the precip annual total and monthly averages
still only show as "weak" at the 80% confidence level. In most
science we'd like the confidence of a trend to at least be 90% or higher.

Your cowardice defines you.


Let's talk now about your craven cowardly act of running away from this
massive aquatic lie you repeatedly tendered on Trump:


https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/dec/22/delta-smelt-fish-trump-california-aoe

"Last fall, Trump signed a memorandum directing federal agencies to
review and roll back environmental standards slowing down the flow of
water to farms in the Central Valley. In February this year, the
president nominated David Bernhardt to serve as his interior secretary.

...turning down the pumps isn’t quite as easy as shutting off a faucet.
The multi-story state and federal pumping plants operate in tandem and
are powerful enough to make rivers flow backward.

If the delta smelt go, California may be able to pump some more."

https://envirobites.org/2019/06/24/farmers-vs-fish-the-story-of-delta-smelt/

"To move water around, over 1,400 dams and miles of aqueducts have been
constructed. A tidal wetland-turned-agricultural land, the Sacramento –
San Joaquin Delta is the center of California’s water distribution
system. About half of California’s developed water moves through the
delta via two pumping plants: Central Valley Project (CVP) and the State
Water Project."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Valley_Project

"The Central Valley Project (CVP) is a federal power and water
management project in the U.S. state of California under the supervision
of the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR). It was devised in
1933 in order to provide irrigation and municipal water to much of
California's Central Valley—by regulating and storing water in
reservoirs in the northern half of the state (once considered water-rich
but suffering water-scarce conditions more than half the year in most
years), and transporting it to the water-poor San Joaquin Valley and its
surroundings by means of a series of canals, aqueducts and pump plants,
some shared with the California State Water Project (SWP). Many CVP
water users are represented by the Central Valley Project Water Association.


Two large reservoirs, Shasta Lake and Trinity Lake, are formed by a pair
of dams in the mountains north of the Sacramento Valley. Water from
Shasta Lake flows into the Sacramento River which flows to the
Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and water from Trinity Lake flows into the
Trinity River which leads to the Pacific Ocean. Both lakes release water
at controlled rates. There, before it can flow on to San Francisco Bay
and the Pacific Ocean, some of the water is intercepted by a diversion
channel and transported to the Delta-Mendota Canal, which conveys water
southwards through the San Joaquin Valley, supplying water to San Luis
Reservoir (a SWP-shared facility) and the San Joaquin River at Mendota
Pool in the process, eventually reaching canals that irrigates farms in
the valley. Friant Dam crosses the San Joaquin River upstream of Mendota
Pool, diverting its water southwards into canals that travel into the
Tulare Lake area of the San Joaquin Valley, as far south as the Kern
River. Finally, New Melones Lake, a separate facility, stores water flow
of a San Joaquin River tributary for use during dry periods. Other
smaller, independent facilities exist to provide water to local
irrigation districts"

get cooler to get more vegetation...

You're stating what you want to pretend is a fact, apparently
unaware that it's baseless.

Know what isn't baseless? The fact that the Sahara Desert was
created by the earth warming. That, it was significantly greener
when the planet was colder.

Cooler = Green

Warmer = desert

This is fact. It's our planet's history, our climate history.

Nothing you are "Arguing" is based on any fact.

No. That is absolutely NOT fact.

"desert" has a scientific definition that relates to how much
precipitation they get.

It literally has nothing to do with the temperature.

The largest desert in the world is the Antarctic Desert with an area of
nearly 5.5 million square miles. It's not warm.

The second largest desert is...

...the Arctic Desert with an area of about 5.4 million square miles.

The Sahara. Doesn't matter how much of a coward you are, trying

Certainly not. He is saying that your contraposed proposition implies
that without correlation there is no causation.

Now observe that since the start of CO2 measurements in the atmosphere,
CO2 variations always follow temperature variations. The correlation is
quite good (R²~0.5). CO2 variations follow temperature variations after
6 or 7 months. According to what you see, would you say that temperature
variations may be a cause of CO2 variations, or just the opposite.

More facts like the one below, easy to find:

- The Siberian desert, also known as the Great Arctic Desert, is the world's
largest desert, covering an area of 13.1 million square kilometers. Here
are some interesting facts about this unique region:

Despite being called a "desert," the Siberian desert is not actually very
dry. It receives around 100-200mm of precipitation per year, mostly in the
form of snow.

- Yes, Antarctica is a desert:

Precipitation

Antarctica receives very little rain or snow, with an average of about 15
centimeters (6 inches) of precipitation per year across the entire
continent. The interior of Antarctica is drier, receiving less than 50
millimeters (2 inches) per year, while coastal regions receive more than
200 millimeters (8 inches).

- Atacama Desert, cool, arid region in northern Chile, 600 to 700 miles
(1,000 to 1,100 km) long from north to south. Its limits are not exactly
determined, but it lies mainly between the south bend of the Loa River and
the mountains separating the Salado-Copiapó drainage basins.

Speaking of which:

We do not exist in a vacuum. We have a climate history. The
Sahara wasn't always this big desert. It used to be a lot
greener. And then the earth warmed up and the desert formed.
And presently that desert is reversing itself. Looking at
the climate history of the planet earth, smaller means a
colder planet and larger means a warmer planet. And it's
getting smaller, according to NASA.

It's not the only such indicator.

The animals melting out of the Siberian "Permafrost," for
example. It wasn't frost, not during to "Ice age." If it
were no animals would have been in it! No, it froze over
only LATER, only AFTER those "ice age" animals were buried.
So conditions are the way they were during the "Ice age."

Permafrost = warmer. No permafrost = colder.

This is due to how the earth circulates the energy from
the sun. Most of it falls along the equator and then from
there it's circulated around the globe. Antarctica is as
cold as it is because it's walled off by the circumpolar
current, keeping the warm air from the equator from ever
reaching it. The continent is actually much colder than
can be accounted for by it's position as the south pole.

The permafrost issue is similar. It's about HOW the planet
circulates the energy from the sun. In fact, this is exactly
why we are inside the Quaternary Period, our present ice age.
The formation of the Isthmus of Panama changed the way the
planet circulates energy, causing some areas to cool down
considerably.

Still, it took hundreds of thousands of years for the deep
ocean temperatures to plunge as low as they are now...

And yet, idiots think it all comes down to CO2.

No. Energy from the sun falls in a way that is distributed based on the
angle of incidence the sun's light makes with the surface.

"To move water around, over 1,400 dams and miles of aqueducts have been
constructed. A tidal wetland-turned-agricultural land, the Sacramento –
San Joaquin Delta is the center of California’s water distribution
system. About half of California’s developed water moves through the
delta via two pumping plants: Central Valley Project (CVP) and the State
Water Project."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Valley_Project

"The Central Valley Project (CVP) is a federal power and water
management project in the U.S. state of California under the supervision
of the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR). It was devised in
1933 in order to provide irrigation and municipal water to much of
California's Central Valley—by regulating and storing water in
reservoirs in the northern half of the state (once considered water-rich
but suffering water-scarce conditions more than half the year in most
years), and transporting it to the water-poor San Joaquin Valley and its
surroundings by means of a series of canals, aqueducts and pump plants,
some shared with the California State Water Project (SWP). Many CVP
water users are represented by the Central Valley Project Water Association.


Two large reservoirs, Shasta Lake and Trinity Lake, are formed by a pair
of dams in the mountains north of the Sacramento Valley. Water from
Shasta Lake flows into the Sacramento River which flows to the
Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and water from Trinity Lake flows into the
Trinity River which leads to the Pacific Ocean. Both lakes release water
at controlled rates. There, before it can flow on to San Francisco Bay
and the Pacific Ocean, some of the water is intercepted by a diversion
channel and transported to the Delta-Mendota Canal, which conveys water
southwards through the San Joaquin Valley, supplying water to San Luis
Reservoir (a SWP-shared facility) and the San Joaquin River at Mendota
Pool in the process, eventually reaching canals that irrigates farms in
the valley. Friant Dam crosses the San Joaquin River upstream of Mendota
Pool, diverting its water southwards into canals that travel into the
Tulare Lake area of the San Joaquin Valley, as far south as the Kern
River. Finally, New Melones Lake, a separate facility, stores water flow
of a San Joaquin River tributary for use during dry periods. Other
smaller, independent facilities exist to provide water to local
irrigation districts"

Because a desert isn't defined by TEMPERATURE, doofus.
We do not exist in a vacuum. We have a climate history. The
Sahara wasn't always this big desert. It used to be a lot
greener. And then the earth warmed up and the desert formed.
And presently that desert is reversing itself. Looking at
the climate history of the planet earth, smaller means a
colder planet and larger means a warmer planet. And it's
getting smaller, according to NASA.
No.
The Sahara getting smaller does NOT mean a colder planet.
I'm basing my statements on the actual climate record, the
history of the planet earth. You, on the other hand, are
a fucking idiot spewing idiocy.

Prove it. Show us these multiple REASONS as they actually
occurred in the Sahara. You're pretending to not be insane,
remember? So back up your claims.

You're proving that you Klimate Kooks are so stupid that
you're not even aware when you're spewing baseless claims.
You don't know the difference between a statement based
on fact and one based on mythology.

You want a "Cite" to when the Sahara desert formed as we know it,
you couldn't find any, not in all your milliseconds of searching,
and this makes you an "Educated" climate activist?

Dude, I honestly love this! You keep testifying to the fact of
your ignorance on the topic, and I don't want you to stop. I've

Short cite :
The Sahara is probably the area that went through the most impressive
changes, as imagining it as anything other than the harsh and brutal,
but still magnificent, place it is today is hard to do.

However, studies show that, from about 10.000 to 5000 years ago, the
Sahara wasn’t a desert at all, but rather a green, lush and humid
territory, full of rivers and lakes, inhabited by most animals that we
know populate Central Africa today, from giraffes and elephants to
hippopotamus and…crocodiles!

It was also home to grazers and the populations were livestock owners as well al
farmers. This helps explain the explosive wealth of Egypt. As the Sahara
drying expanded, these herdsmen and farmers were driven to concentrate in the
Nile valley bringing with them well developed skills and existing portable
wealth.

Four more reasons to not vote for Trump in 33 days.


26) Trump broke the law by trying to withhold nearly
$400 million of U.S. aid for Ukraine in an effort to
extort a personal political favor from Ukraine's President Zelensky.
Trump wanted Zelensky to interfere in the 2020 election by announcing
an investigation into the Bidens. Delaying this aid to Ukraine
weakened Ukraine and strengthened Russia.

27) Trump personally attacked and ruined the careers of everyone
who stood in the way of his illegal Ukraine scheme, including
Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch and Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman.

28) To cover up the scheme, Trump ordered the White House and
State Department to defy congressional subpoenas.

29) For these reasons, on December 18th, 2019, Trump
became the third U.S. president to be impeached.
He was charged with abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
