Climate Change

Jesus..

I would like to know what the actual air temp was. Starting at 140F your internal organs start to cook after 10min of exposer if I remember correctly.

104F, 65% humidity

It just doesn't sound as high as the index, which is a better marker for what our body feels. The higher the humidity, the less heat you're able to release. I think I looked up somewhere that the max is like 120°F before the body basically quits because it can't release heat fast enough.

Gimme that wet bulb temperature.

I was in Mexico one time on a diving trip. One of the places they took us was a National Park that had some Mayan ruins and we toured that first. They warned us that the air temperature was 110F but that was before the hottest part of the day and I heard it was like 115F later. The ruins site had a lot of white sandy soil that reflects heat and it wasn't too far from the ocean so you where probably getting some humidity from that.

I'll never forget getting out of that air conditioned van and start walking around the site. It was like being inside an oven. A few people got sick cause they were not drinking enough. I had two one liter bottles in my backpack and I downed the first one so fast while it was still cool. When you would sweat it would almost immediately evaporate and after a while your skin felt gritty. I guess from all the salt you were losing. I felt absolutely miserable the whole time until we got to the ocean for the dive later that day.

my man

that was probably around 92F wet bulb which is damn close to death

(our bodies can't cool at 95F wet bulb, even with shade and infinite water)

I enjoy watching my body excrete water only to realize the atmosphere is 100% water saturated and can't evaporate anymore.

A buoy in Manatee Bay, about 40 miles south of Miami, posted a temperature of 101.1 degrees at 6 p.m. after a morning low of 91 degrees. Temperatures remained at or above 100 from 5 p.m. through late evening.

For comparison, the “ideal” temperature of a hot tub is 100 to 102 degrees, according to jacuzzi.com.

Climate change isn't real because snow still exists

[thetruepandagod]

i would do anything to induce an ice age, u filthy sun loving heathens have had enough

[Andalusian girls]

should really join end oil then we're trending the wrong way

[thetruepandagod]

but i like the smell of gasoline

[thetruepandagod]

only 1 historical figure has ever been truly green and i say we follow in his footsteps

Do you think Republicans will finally apologize to Al Gore?

Sorry I don't subscribe to Twitter anymore what does that shit mean

tl;dr from what I read: ocean getting warmer recently can be directly correlated to regulations about the pollutants from shipping vessels which were recently regulated to be less harmful pollution wise. the pollution itself was bad obviously, but it was essentially cloud seeding which caused coverage that reflected a lot of sunlight. less pollutants -> less clouds -> more heat. the data DOES seem to prove fairly conclusively that cloud seeding is a viable method to combat the warming (whereas getting a study to intentionally test this hypothesis would have been a nonstarter, or very slow) and can potentially be done in a less harmful, less polluting manner, possibly even by the vessels seeding the atmosphere with sea water or something.

How long til people are like "OMG BOATTRAILS!!!" or some such thing?
