1/11❯ You've been lied to. The impacts of rising CO2 levels are in both the past and the future, and they are overwhelmingly positive. https://sealevel.info/learnmore.html?0=madrasfamine#famine…

2/11❯ The fact that elevated CO2 is dramatically beneficial for crops has been settled science for more than a century. This was not the "mid 20th century." https://sealevel.info/ScientificAmerican_1920-11-27_CO2_fertilization.html…

3/11❯ Thanks, in significant part, to rising CO2 levels, crop yield improvements have outpaced population growth. https://twitter.com/ncdave4life/status/1670084555355611136…

4/11❯ It's impossible to overstate the importance of that blessing. Compare: ● Covid-19 killed ≈0.1% of world population ● The 1918 flu killed ≈2% ● WWII killed ≈2.7% ● The global drought & famine of 1876-78 killed ≈3.7% of world population https://twitter.com/ncdave4life/status/1707076924986511369…

5/11❯ Temperatures are not "approaching dangerous levels." That's brazen FUD, from the climate industry propaganda machine. Most of the Earth is, by all objective measures, much too cold. https://twitter.com/ncdave4life/status/1712376919067414622…

6/11❯ Are you familiar with the term "climate optimum?" Do you know why historians and scientists (other than climate activists) call the warmest climate periods "climate optimums?" If you go to ResearchGate or Google Scholar, and search for "Climate Optimum" (or Eemian Optimum, Mid-Holocene Optimum, Roman Optimum, or Medieval Optimum), you'll find thousands of papers using that terminology. Those "optimums" were warm periods. https://scholar.google.com/scholar?as_sdt=0,34&hl=en&q=%22climate+optimum%22…

7/11❯ The reason the warmest periods in history are called "climate optimums" is that the consensus among historians & scientists that those warm "climate optimums" — including periods warmer than now — were objectively better than colder periods. https://twitter.com/ncdave4life/status/1509179583920324617… Or, look at the flip side: cold periods, like the Dark Ages Cold Period (DACP) and the Little Ice Age (LIA). There's a broad consensus that those cold periods were, by all objective measures, worse for humanity than the warm "optimums." https://scholar.google.com/scholar?as_yhi=2010&q=%28%22Dark+Ages%22+OR+%22Late+Antiquity%22%29+%28%22Little+Ice+Age%22+OR+%22Cold+Period%22+OR+%22Cool+Period%22+OR+%22Migration+Period%22%29…

8/11❯ There are no significant negative impacts from manmade climate change. https://twitter.com/ncdave4life/status/1660797336577101825… That SHOULD make you happy. If it doesn't, perhaps you work in the climate industry. It's akin to learning that a war is ending — when you're in the munitions business.

9/11❯ Humans are a tropical species, and most of the Earth is much too cold. https://sealevel.info/GasparriniFig2_combined3.png… Warming saves lives, and excess cold causes many times more human deaths than excess heat — even in tropical counties, believe it or not! Here are some recent papers about it: 1. Masselot et al (2023). https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanplh/article/PIIS2542-5196(23)00023-2/fulltext… 2. Gasparrini et al (2022). https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanplh/article/PIIS2542-5196(22)00138-3/fulltext… Composite of two figures from the paper: https://sealevel.info/GasparriniFig2_combined3.png… 3. Zhao et al (2021). https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanplh/article/PIIS2542-5196(21)00081-4/fulltext… Discussion: https://unherd.com/thepost/bjorn-lomborg-how-global-warming-will-save-lives/… Summary: https://sealevel.info/Zhao2021_Lancet_warming_saves_lives.png… 4. Gasparrini et al (2015). https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanplh/article/PIIS0140-6736(14)62114-0/fulltext… Figure 2: https://sealevel.info/Gasparrini2015_fig2.png…

10/11❯ Here's a 1974 CIA study about the threat of global cooling: https://sealevel.info/CIA1974ClimateReport/… This graph from that study shows how cooling threatens food supplies: https://sealevel.info/CIA1974ClimateReport/CIA1974_excerpt10a.png… There are no important negative impacts from anthropogenic warming. All the major impacts are positive.

11/11❯ The scientific evidence is compelling that manmade climate change is modest and benign, and CO2 emissions are highly beneficial. https://twitter.com/ncdave4life/status/1432810945017962505… The benefits are large and well-measured, and the supposed significant harms are merely hypothetical, and mostly implausible. If those facts are surprising to you, it means you’ve been misled by unbalanced & inaccurate information. I.e., you’ve been conned. That's not surprising, because: “Climate science has metastasized into massive shock-journalistic pseudoscience.” - Dr. John Clauser, 2022 Nobel Laureate (Physics) To understand a highly politicized issue like climate change, you need balanced information. On my website I have a list of high quality resources to help you learn about it: https://sealevel.info/learnmore.html It has: ● accurate introductory climatology information ● in-depth science from BOTH skeptics & alarmists ● links to balanced debates between experts on BOTH sides ● accurate information about climate impacts ● links to the best blogs on BOTH sides I hope you find it educational and encouraging.
