nifty article explaining the 3% 'contrarian' claims about global warming:

There is a 97% expert consensus on a cohesive theory that’s overwhelmingly supported by the scientific evidence, but the 2–3% of papers that reject that consensus are all over the map, even contradicting each other. The one thing they seem to have in common is methodological flaws like cherry picking, curve fitting, ignoring inconvenient data, and disregarding known physics.

When preaching to the choir, of course not. But you'll be surprised by the number of conservative dumb fuck climate-change deniers out there.

Climate scientists this week expressed alarm after “unprecedented” data showed the Northern Hemisphere Jet Stream crossing the Equator.
In a column on Tuesday, environmental blogger Robert Scribbler noted that the Northern Hemisphere Jet Stream had merged with the Southern Hemisphere Jet Stream.
“It’s the very picture of weather weirding due to climate change. Something that would absolutely not happen in a normal world,” he wrote. “Something, that if it continues, basically threatens seasonal integrity.”
...
“That’s bad news for seasonality,” he continued. “You get this weather-destabilizing and extreme weather generating mixing of seasons that is all part of a very difficult to deal with ‘Death of Winter’ type scenario.”
University of Ottawa climate scientist Paul Beckwith called the new behavior “unprecedented.”
“Our climate system behaviour continues to behave in new and scary ways that we have never anticipated, or seen before,” Beckwith observed. “Welcome to climate chaos. We must declare a global climate emergency.”
In a YouTube video, Beckwith said that the jet stream behavior signaled “massive hits to the food supply” and “massive geopolitical unrest.”

Death of Winter is right... here in Vancouver I feel like the last 3-4 years there hasn't even been a fucking winter. Spring is summer, and summer is just an overcast heatwave until October, at which point it rains for 5 months.

Here in Vermont, we barely had a winter last year. Almost no snow, and what little fell quickly melted. Normally there's snow by Thanksgiving and it doesn't go away until Easter at least. Last winter, we didn't get snow until January and it was gone by the end of March. I meet a lot of people for work from all walks of life, and I made it a point of asking the older ones about this most recent winter compared to winters past in Vermont. Without exception, they all told me this was the strangest winter they've ever experienced in Vermont...

The summer here was notably extended this year, and we've just gone past the winter solstice but most of the trees haven't dropped their leaves. This is our concern dude.
Could be a short term swing though, those things do happen. I recall some really intense winters during the late 90s in the UK midlands, and milder ones in the late 80s/early 90s, then even further back in the mid 80s really cold winters. This feels like the tip of that short cycle again (plus actual climate change bolted on top).

Is the panic just to keep the status quo? I mean, so what, Yeah climate will change and favorable farming of particular crops will have to move on to the now newly favorable spot. Yes some shit is gonna change, but how catastrophic is all this really? Short term, may be distrupting to our lifestyle and other animal and plant life. But a little longer term, shit will be fine, changed around a bit here and there but so what?
Fucking panicers.
Fucking panicers.

Now you've done it
I will say there's signs of the Antarctic increasing in size, the Arctic is relatively stable, new permafrost being formed and the ozone hole is shrinking. So not all doom and gloom
