When the whole world gets hotter you infidels will die like flies while we will still be marching, fighting and conquering. http://nym...the-arctic-circle-on-fire.html A Global Heat Wave Has Set the Arctic Circle on Fire By Adam K. Raymond From Japan to Sweden, and Oman to Texas, a global heat wave is setting records, igniting wildfires, and killing dozens all across the world this week. The south-central region is home to the highest temperatures in the U.S. this week, with nearly 35 million people living under excessive heat warnings issued by the National Weather Service. Temperatures are expected to be in the triple digits across Texas this weekend, marking the most severe heat wave in the state since 2011. The Texas heat has already led to record-breaking days for the Texas power grid twice this week. Things aren’t any better elsewhere in the region, with heat indexes in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana reaching up to 110 degrees. Across the globe in Kyoto, Japan, Thursday marked the seventh straight day of temperatures that exceeded 100 degrees, breaking all known records for the ancient capital city. At least 30 people have died in Japan during the heat wave, which has complicated rescue efforts following floods and landslides that killed more than 200 in western Japan earlier this month. On Thursday alone ten people died and 2,605 people were sent to hospitals in Tokyo due to heat, the Japan Times reports. The day before, Tokyo rescue workers set a record by responding to more than 3,000 emergency calls. Meanwhile, in Sweden, the Arctic Circle is on fire. High temperatures and a prolonged drought have caused 49 fires to ignite across Sweden, with temperatures reaching 90 degrees as far north as the Arctic Circle this week. According to the Washington Post, temperatures in Scandinavia typically settle in the 60s and 70s this time of year, meaning the current heat wave is making things around 20 degrees hotter than normal. The list of areas experiencing extreme temperatures keeps going: An Algerian city earlier this month broke the record for the highest temperature ever in Africa when it hit 124.3 degrees and a city in Oman recorded the highest low temperature — 108.7 degrees — ever recorded on Earth. In Quebec, more than 90 people were killed by extreme heat in early July. It’s impossible to talk about these extreme temperatures without talking about climate change. Heat domes — high-pressure areas that trap hot air and increase temperatures — are being blamed for these heat waves and they have become more common as the climate has warmed. Research has also repeatedly linked the warming climate to heat waves. As climate scientist Ben Santer, who linked the burning of fossil fuels to the intense heat waves, told the Los Angeles Times this week, “This isn’t a big scientific surprise.”

Sam Adams Member	Mon Jul 23 09:31:53 "From Japan to Sweden, and Oman to Texas, a global heat wave is setting records, igniting wildfires, and killing dozens all across the world this week. " Ya we call that "summer"
Paramount Member	Mon Jul 23 10:13:39 77 people has died in Japan so far because of the heat. They have like 42˚C or 44˚C in Japan now. I have no AC in my house so I have like 29˚C in my house right now. Last night I think I must have had 32˚C or something. But I’m not old so I will survive.
Paramount Member	Mon Jul 23 10:16:38 Last year’s summer was terrible, so I see this heat wave as a compensation.
Paramount Member	Mon Jul 23 10:17:21 I’m happy that we don’t have more than 35˚C though.
Sam Adams Member	Mon Jul 23 12:31:23 "77 people has died in Japan" almost dead old people are finished off by the heat all the time. Meh.

In total, 7·71% (95% empirical CI 7·43–7·91) of mortality was attributable to non-optimum temperature in the selected countries within the study period, with substantial differences between countries, ranging from 3·37% (3·06 to 3·63) in Thailand to 11·00% (9·29 to 12·47) in China. The temperature percentile of minimum mortality varied from roughly the 60th percentile in tropical areas to about the 80–90th percentile in temperate regions. More temperature-attributable deaths were caused by cold (7·29%, 7·02–7·49) than by heat (0·42%, 0·39–0·44).

Paramount Member	Mon Jul 23 13:58:19 ”over 40,000 brits died of cold weather 2015” I have heard that british houses are built poorly. Not built with heat isolation in mind.
Nimatzo iChihuaha	Mon Jul 23 14:37:10 Well, you build for your climate. Swedish houses get very hot during summers, for the reason they are warm during winter, they are designed to retain heat.
Allahuakbar Member	Fri Jul 27 03:17:21 We don't care! "Norwegian authorities have banned outdoor barbecues" http://www...e-to-dry-weather-idUSKBN1KF294 Norway's mid-July power prices hit record high due to dry weather Lefteris Karagiannopoulos 2 Min Read OSLO (Reuters) - Electricity prices in hydropower-dependent Norway hit a record high for this time of year last week due to lack of rainfall and the unusual warm weather the country has been experiencing since May, the power system’s regulator said on Wednesday. Between July 16 and July 23, power prices for the first time climbed above 0.50 Norwegian crowns ($0.0613) per kilowatt-hour, compared with the previous record 0.44 crowns hit in 2008. “The price increase is linked to a reduced hydrological balance due to dry and warm weather...,” the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE) said. Sponsored Unusually warm and dry weather has led to power costs in Norway almost doubling from 2017, NVE has said. Net rainfall for the week was estimated to total 0.2 terawatt-hour (TWh) of energy or 15 percent of the normal, the regulator added. So far this year Norway has received 45 percent less rain than it usually gets between January and July. Levels in Norwegian hydropower plant reservoirs have been decreasing since reaching 61.7 percent of full capacity at end-June, and were down to 60.4 percent last week. The reservoirs are fed by rainfall and snow melt in the mountains. NVE said only the return of rains would help fill the reservoirs since there was much less snow left to melt compared with the previous year. Last year Norway’s reservoir levels peaked at 86.6 percent in late October. Temperatures in the Nordic country hit a new record of 35.5 degrees Celsius on July 17. “What we’re seeing in northern Europe is unusual to say the least. Temperatures topped 30 degrees Celsius in the Arctic circle last week, this is more a typical July temperature for southern Europe, for Madrid,” a spokeswoman for the U.N. World Meteorological Organisation said on Tuesday. Norwegian authorities have banned outdoor barbecues, popular among Norwegians, to reduce risk of wildfires.
Dukhat Member	Fri Jul 27 13:09:38 Climate-change denial is the new holocaust denial. Double down on group-think stupid retards. It makes no difference. It only makes you more and more of an incel.
Allahuakbar Member	Mon Jul 30 15:25:51 http://af.reuters.com/article/commoditiesNews/idAFL5N1UQ5X3 OSLO, July 30 (Reuters) - * Sweden’s Ringhals-2 nuclear reactor has been taken offline due to high water temperatures, operator Vattenfall said on Monday * Ongoing warm weather in Sweden means that seawater has reached 25 degrees Celsius over the the last few days, Vattenfall said in a statement * To maintain cooling capacity in the Ringhals nuclear plant, seawater is used to cool different systems and components * “When the water gets warmer, its cooling effect reduces and in order to maintain the cooling capacity needed for different systems, we need to now take Ringhals 2 out of operation,” said Sven-Anders Andersson, production manager at Ringhals. * The 865-megawatt (MW) pressurized water reactor is one of the four reactors at the plant. Ringhals-3 and 4 reactors are still online. Ringhals-1 is due to undergo annual planned maintenance. (Reporting by Lefteris Karagiannopoulos; writing by Nina Chestney)
obaminated Member	Mon Jul 30 22:32:08 "Climate-change denial is the new holocaust denial. Double down on group-think stupid retards. It makes no difference. It only makes you more and more of an incel." Has anyone denied that the Earth's temperature isn't static? This whole "climate change denier" mantra is very misleading and frankly frustrating. We disagree about the cause, not that it happens.
Nimatzo iChihuaha	Tue Jul 31 08:43:48 Obaminated The current warming trend is of particular significance because most of it is extremely likely (greater than 95 percent probability) to be the result of human activity since the mid-20th century and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia.1 -NASA As a point of reference, most the infrastructure in your society relies on test reports issued with a 95% confidence interval to fullfill regulatory demands.
Nimatzo iChihuaha	Tue Jul 31 09:25:57 In other words, your disagreement with the research is actually less valid than if you had been disagreeing over the fire classification of a door or the structural integrity of a wall. Seen from a liability perspective it is true enough to not get sued :)
Seb Member	Tue Jul 31 09:30:44 oaminated: The cause is very easy to understand. CO2 traps heat. This is a fact of quantum mechanics and can be measured independently of the actual temperature by simply measuring power spectra looking up, looking down at ground, top of atmosphere, and in the atmospheric column.
Sam Adams Member	Tue Jul 31 10:55:27 "most the infrastructure in your society relies on test reports issued with a 95% confidence interval to fullfill regulatory demands." There is a lot of infrastructure that is engineered to vastly higher confidence levels. But ya, we are causing the warming.
Nimatzo iChihuaha	Tue Jul 31 11:53:23 And there obaminated, you just saw both sam adams and seb say the same thing, they fucking agreed. Hell has not frozen over though, quite the reverse actually.
Forwyn Member	Tue Jul 31 12:07:25 Eh. We're speeding up the natural heat cycle. Carbon that would be trapped for millions more years by natural phenomenon is being extracted and burned at record rates. That cycle is conducive to life, but perhaps not in the manner that we want it. Maybe reconsider coastline living.
Sam Adams Member	Tue Jul 31 12:21:05 "Maybe reconsider coastline living." Nah, the rate of sea level increase is so slow. Build 2 feet higher and you are good for another century at least.
Nimatzo iChihuaha	Tue Jul 31 13:01:40 From what I have read the earth should actually be cooling because of less activity on the suns surface, no? Anyways if it was cooling that would have arguably been worse overall. But any rate the climate system is not static, it will always be a cost of living. In that regard it is likely that the costs of global warming and the anxiety that it is apprently causing people (yes mental health counseling for global warming anxiety is now a thing) are exaggerated. There are much worse manmade disasters taking place in the oceans.
Sam Adams Member	Tue Jul 31 13:16:59 Cooling is indeed vastly more dangerous than warming. We are near the low end temperature limits for our crops through a wide swath of mid latitude farming territory. A minor warming trend is probably a slight improvement in terms of global carrying capacity of humans. Especially one caused by more plant food.
Daemon Member	Wed Aug 01 12:29:28 Now here's a valid reason to fight Global Warming http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45019713 German heatwave causes beer bottle shortage as sales surge Germany has baked in one of its warmest months since records began in 1881 - and breweries have been toasting a boost in beer sales as a result. June was 2.4C hotter than average, while July hopped up 3.3C - and cold beer was much in demand. But the sales success is putting brewers under pressure, with many running out of bottles. Breweries have appealed for people to return their empties as soon as possible so they can maintain supply. Glass bottles, used by many beermakers, have a small deposit on them in Germany, and beer drinkers are expected to bring them back to the shop when getting their next round. Cans, used elsewhere in the world, are far less common and many breweries use customised bottles that are tricky to replace. "We need your help," brewery Moritz Fiege wrote on Facebook. "Great weather plus great beer equals a lot of thirst. [...]
