That said, getting hold of them was hard and needed a special order.

All these car manufacturers pushing this horrorshow deserve to go under. Tbh it looks like most will soon....

Do you know why the earth is so much colder when the southern hemisphere is in winter than when the northern hemisphere is in winter?

Because anyone not seeking money from the green energy VCs will tell you all about that and how the earths axial precession causes 26k year ice age cycles - what happens to the climate when the sun is mostly shining on ocean rather than land. Guess which phase of that cycle we are in right now...

what was your rationale for accelerating that descent into the next ice age again? Cos yeah, no amount of claims based on zero facts is going to convince me of anything, I find your assumption that humanity under miles of ice a worthy endeavour to be nothing short of grotesque malthusian snake oil.

Posting a link that says exactly what I said: "but you can easily appreciate that sea levels have been much higher than today for much of this period of the Earth's history"

Is pretty much the opposite of debunking as far as I know.

Do you understand sea levels rise when it is warmer and fall when it is colder?

In our very recent history, sea levels were 10 meters higher than they are now, that means in our very recent history it was significantly warmer than now. back when the nile was the green cradle of humanity.

From here the only way is colder - enough ice formed in the last few thousand years to drop the sea level by 10 meters, and even if it did warm and melt enough ice to rise the sea levels back to 10m higher than now, Penguins already survived it. We will to.

going back to 2 miles of ice above your fav city puts us back in the era passing bible stories verbally (but at least we know now they will use gaza and tel aviv instead of soddom and gommah).

Oh, and btw, the decline in the Penguin population is almost certainly China overfishing, do you have any idea how huge Antarctica is?

But don't let a few facts stand in the way of you believing what you read in the local tabloid.

We are due to enter another ice age, quite possibly in our lifetime. It has already been warmer longer than 2 of the past three warm periods. Quite possibly because of/thanks to AGW.

The oil has run out and now 2 miles of ice above new york is coming to a store near you.

Everything else is a distraction and propaganda.

But either way the Penguins will be fine.

Personally I'm on the not side.

And also

The only people I have seen deny climate change are the AGW idiots who think the climate has ever been stable, and who demand global action to try to put it into some sort of climatic stasis.

The rest of us have always accepted the SCIENTIFIC FACTS that:

(a) The Earth's climate has always changed and always will.

(b) The Earth's climate is EXTREMELY COMPLEX and cannot currently be accurately modeled in a computer.

(c) While humans, like EVERYTHING ELSE, have SOME effects on climate, there are plenty of other causes of change including many we probably do not know/understand. Some of these other sources, like the sun, have a far greater impact than humans.

(d) The Earth has been both significantly hotter and extremely cold many times in the past before there were enough humans to have had ANY effect on any of those previously very extreme changes.

We ALSO embrace things like the laws of economics, the record of human history, and accept basic human nature - so we:

(a) Believe humans will continue to advance technologically and thus we as a species become better able to deal with climate change with every passing decade, making it retrograde to go nuts trying to offset it now - even if we could, and if we could afford it, and if its happening.

(b) Know that far more people are dying today from other sources than from climate, and that reducing some of the deaths and suffering of people TODAY is achieved using some of those fossil fuels people like you want eliminated or made too expensive because YOU claim it will save some future persons from some imagined future horror.

(c) WE actually believe a pet theory should be PROVEN before we implement policies that have a negative impact on the lives of millions of people in the name of "solving" the supposed problem. In fact, we'd like to not only see the problem PROVEN to exist, but we also want to see that the proposed solution will actually work, will be the most cost-effective option, and will have the least impact upon the lives and liberty of the people who are alive today.

if "something might happen in the next 60 years to wipe out half the population" counts as making a species endangered, every species on the planet counts as endangered.

Also IUCN, with only 180,000 individuals the Emperor penguin is now classified as Endangered.

I think someone has been out hunting headlines.

For all the wrong reasons.

And also at least the satellite versions.

And all of which are part of the S300 systems EW package Iran possess, the Cobra V8 has a touted range of 250km.

Also been demonstrated now in Ukraine.

They claimed

They jammed the control link so the operators couldnt control it, then used gps spoofing to make its "lost communication fly home" protocol land itself in hostile territory.
