Found this thread interesting, it’s about the size of different countries and our perception of that size based on how maps show up.   Not necessarily environment as we see the thread, but it fit here best.

The wind has been absolutely horrible here in central Nebraska.  Saturday, we were on I-80 and came into an area I thought a tractor must be working the field and kicking up dust.  Nope....just so dry it was blowing dust everywhere.

what could go wrong?  roads that glow in the dark sound like fun

The bill passed by legislators permits the use of toxic phosphogypsum in “demonstration” road projects in Florida. Critics said this is the first step in a phosphate industry push to eventually use the waste in roads nationwide.

The Environmental Protection Agency prohibits using the toxic phosphate waste in roadway construction because it poses an unacceptable risk to road construction workers, public health and the environment.

Why Some People Are Susceptible to Climate Change Denial

 

TL;DR All-or-nothing thinking makes it easy to refute scientifically sound conclusions

From a scientific standpoint, these claims of disproof are absurd. Fluctuations in the weather don’t refute clear long-term trends in the climate.
 

what constitutes a “long-term trend” in your mind?  5yrs? 10yrs? 100yrs? 1000yrs, 10,000yrs?

I notice you didn’t answer the question.  Amazing.

Ok, I’ll ask you.   What constitutes a long term trend?  Who defines how long the time period for the trend is?

My answer to that has absolutely no bearing on the fact that you do not believe climate change due to man made causes is actually a thing. You’ve been very clear that science has got it all wrong and all we are experiencing is normal climate variation. Does it really matter if long term is 10 years or 1,000 years?
 

Your attitude on everything like this is deny deny deny, until you no longer can and then obfuscate and move the goalposts. If you’re still able to deny the science of climate change, nobody’s gonna change your mind and you’ll continue to be part of the problem and not the solution. I’ve already wasted more words on you than is worthwhile.
