You doing you

"Over the last four years, the industry's capital expenditures have increased by 53%, while its net profit has risen by nearly 16%. In fact, oilfield services reported its best performance for the 2023 to 2024 period in the past 34 years."

Kind of funny how everything, afterwards, falls under IPCC expectations, although it actually didn't, before it happened.


"The probability of seeing an observed temperature of 1.52C in 2024 considering a human-induced warming equal to 1.36C is about one chance out of six. The methodology to calculate this probability consists in comparing the global surface air temperature (GSAT)-observed anomaly to the anomalies expected from CMIP6 models following the framework adopted in AR6 in Chap. 3 for decadal trends and adapted here for interannual timescale issues.

The same probability but conditional to the fact that 2024 followed an El Nino year and that the Atlantic multidecadal variability (AMV) was in a positive phase, rises to one chance out of two. 2024 can therefore be treated as a "normal" year, i.e. very much expected at the actual human-caused global warming level when the internal modes of variability are taken into account and when assessed from a very large number of simulations from large ensembles."

Sometimes that trying to be ever so neutral and 'scientific' shoots itself in the foot.



so how about those El Ninos?

Looking back, watching reality, everything becomes 'expected', in hindsight.

[yor_on]

I don't look back in that manner. I predict. And I will predict that you're going to be surprised over the way our synergies leave you in a perfect storm, around 2040.

[yor_on]

And you will then tell yourself that nothing can be done. About Africa, about the Middle East, Antarctica, The Arctic circle, probably parts of the Mediterranean too, and you in USA.

And you will be even more right, because you didn't do sh* to stop it before either.

[yor_on]

You never changed any infra structures, you just thought you did. You didn't ban, you stopped what redistribution of relative wealth we had left and then you went to war. Led by the worst collection of extremes possible, all focused on keeping a status quo.

[yor_on]

And those people, in the choice between keeping a status quo, themselves and their beliefs versus reality, will always choose themselves. That's how our game trained them, to then reward them for becoming winners.

[yor_on]

It's not that they're so much different from the rest of us. They just have more to defend. And a lot more honed than you.

A game of a thousand cuts, ending in a perfect storm

Then we have those epidemics coming with it, like covid.

Some thumb rules

You can get infected even when being vaccinated. It will help you personally, a lot, but not your friends, family, coworkers etc, You will infect them if you can't stay away.

[yor_on]

A vaccination will also give you some protection from what's called 'long covid',  but it's no 'Get out of Jail, free card'

https://biologyinsights.com/long-covid-vaccine-preventing-and-treating-symptoms/

[yor_on]

And that 'long covid' is no joke. It can destroy you.

" Studies across 14 nations show 25% to 30% rate of long COVID "

[yor_on]

The reason I'm looking at it is me noticing that here in Sweden you now have to be born 1950 or earlier to get a free dose of it. Otherwise you have to pay, and that it's called nothing more than a 'influenza'.

Total bs

[yor_on]

The thing is, those vaccines works, and not taking one is playing with your long term health. So why does governments and their scientific advisors tell us that we don't have to worry.

Simple. The GDP and economy
