Ahh Legrande...I believe Japan colonized both parts of Korea, including the south

Indeed so. Why intervene there again?

Japan should not intervene in Korea again.

Yet, the coral reefs off Bondalem were bleached in less than 10 years, he says, blaming warmer sea temperatures triggered by climate change.

The ocean is warming up very rapidly.

Mother Nature at work again.

I think that your point of view is wrong.

You are quoting the source I gave to you back at me.

Right.

current scientific opinion including by those who theorized the issue

Not precise. James Hansen theorised the possibility of a mini-runaway, even without taking into account the burning down of the bio-mass.

Deforestation contributes to climate change.

This is a distraction. Do you want to curb climate change? Then stop burning crazy amounts of petroleum.

We should prevent deforestation. However, on the overall backdrop of the problems that our planet faces, the deforestation issue is marginal.

theFu, talking about what will happen in 4B years, instead of about what will happan in half a year, is a distraction.

Not being worried in the face of danger, and denying the danger, is not a sign of wisdom.

We do not need to worry

Isn't the mini-runawy described by Hansen a reason for worry? Isn't the fact that all the bio-mass will be burnt along with the fossil fuels a reason for worry?

in his 2013 article cited above by dev/random, James Hansen asserts that

*"The dominance of amplifying feedbacks and the resulting high climate sensitivity make Earth susceptible to what we can call a mini-runaway. By mini-runaway, I refer to a case with an amplifying feedback large enough that the total feedback reaches runaway (the infinite series above does not converge), but eventually that process runs out of fuel."*

He also asserts that

"But it is not an exaggeration to suggest, based on best available scientific evidence, that burning all fossil fuels could result in the planet being not only ice-free but human-free."

Theory always relates assumptions to conclusions. The assumptions can be realistic or not. The inference can be precise/true or not. Eventually, there are facts and results. Is the assumption that only fossil fuels will be burnt realistic? What about the biomass (vegetations and animals, including humans), which will be burnt as well?

physics dictates that a runaway greenhouse is not possible on Earth.

= UNTRUE

Physical theory cannot contradict experimental facts.

Another recent article in JT related to the pertinent general topic, reported about a runaway melting of Antarctic ice sheets.

Please don't repeat this hyperalarmist nonsense.

The natural world, the physical world, is not dictated by your wishes, by what is convenient to you, and by your desire to deny and ignore the alarm.

even if we stop all greenhouse gas emissions immediately and force 80% of humans to starve because they can't work and earn a living.

There are excellent ways to earn a living without burning petroleum.

I would like to say that this heat wave is a manifestation of a malignant climate crisis which must be tackled urgently.

Wild fires are not good.

Please elaborate. How easy is it?

Solar electricity is now cheaper than electricity produced from carbon. EVs are much more worthwhile than petroleum weagons.

Instead of bowing all the time, why not start manufacturing EVs? This would be beneficial for Japan and for the world.

Does the boogeyman sleep under your bed or in your closet?

The denial of the climate crisis is stupid and suicidal.

The high temperature is an expression of the climate crisis.

Your prediction isn't.

When my prediction materializes, no one will be there to see and acknowledge it.

Noone theorizes about boiling oceans, noone forecasts Earth's oceans turning to steam.

I am not the only one who understands the grave consequences of the continuation of the greenhouse process. But other people are intimidated, and do not say their mind, because the denial of the climate crisis is very fierce and dominant.

You should at least remove this unbridled nonsense from your copy&paste essay.

I do not think that my opinion is nonsense. But even if it were, the freedom of expression allows to express various opinion, correct or not, nonsense or not. You are entitled to state your own opinion, and I should be entitled to state mine. I will continue to warn against the climate crisis as long as this crisis is being ignored and deinied, and is not being addressed.

Another recent article in JT, related to the pertinent general subject, reported about a runaway melting of Antarctic ice sheets. It cannot be denied that the bleaching of the corals is caused by the rapid warming up of the oceans.

The denial of the climate crisis is stupid and suicidal. Our knowledge of physics and system theory tells us that in the wake of the inputs inserted by humans the climate system has become nonlinear and unstable. This system is full of malignant positive feedback loops that push it away from equilibrium. There are no stabilizing mechanisms whatsoever that can keep the climate system in equilibrium. But there is no need to be an expert: The rapid rise in temperature and humidity is visible to the naked eye. The catastrophic loss of our planet and the ultimate extermination of humanity are very near. But there still exists a remedy: Moving away from energizing ourselves from petroleum and carbon, and moving on to a new era of energizing ourselves from the sun's radiation and from heavy nuclei. That is easy to do, and should have been done a long time ago. However, there are powerful social forces that fight vehemently against this simple and obvious cure and against the attempt to salvage the planet and the human race. These enemies of the planet claim that moving to modern transportation based on electricity will ruin our society. But these petroleum lords and advocates do not explain how can the usage of efficient, economical, high performance and enjoyable electric cars ruin our society. What society will remain when the temperature rises to hundreds of degrees Celsius and the oceans boil and become steam?

Immature and regressive.

You continue your ad-hominem style.

Being kind and trying to help is considered an attack these days?

This is extreme hypocricy.

Might be time to get some professional help.

This is an extreme type of ad-hominem attack.

It is time to establish peace in East Asia. That region of the world has known enough in the second half of the 19th century and in the first half of the 20th century. Japan has suffered enough, and does not need another war related to Korea.

When the vegetation of the Pantanal is burning down, it means that it is converted into CO2 and rises up to the atmosphere.

Glad you acknowledge the threats from Russia and the PRC

I do not acknowledge this.

ask yourself if the DPRK isn’t showing signs of totalitarianism and the desire to reclaim the south

The political system of Korea and the relations between the two parts of Korea are the business of Korea. Japan should mind its own business.
