   climate change is real I'm just saying that nothing has changed yet about the "impossible to blame things on climate change and not just normal weather" thing

     @sun does "climate change" mean anthropogenic warming caused by an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide? Or does it mean, literally, climate change(s)?

     @sun @icedquinn cali wildfires can be partly blamed on importing eucaliptus trees which are extremely oily, flammable, and combust when reaching a certain temperature (thats how they reproduce)
     
     and partly because a bunch of really smart smarties thought we should grow all our food in the hottest and driest place on earth

     @icedquinn it appears true that hurricanes are happening with more frequency. But I have been reading articles. What I found out is that hurricane insurance hasn't been profitable since like the 1980s because of a couple hurricanes and it's been on life support ever since, not climate change; and that demand for new housing is expanding building into previously uninsurable areas, which are suffering guess what, tornadoes and fires, also not climate change. do you know how many articles I have read that blame California wildfires on climate change? Basically everybody is full of shit.

     @sun i haven't really concerned myself about it since it became an unscientific talking point.
     
     like the moment r/science declared by fiat that you are not to question climate change i wrote the subject off entirely.
