Is my 40‑year global warming forecast from population growth realistic?

[SeekerOfTruth007]

I have calculated that the ADDITIONAL 3 billion people over the next 40 years due to world population increase will contribute around 35 parts per million CO2 just through their own breathing and the breathing of additinoal Livestock animals, plus deforestation to grow crops and livestock animals. that's not their technology or "pollution level". That's just EATING AND BREATHING over the next 40 years for the extra 3 billion people (averaged to 1.5 billion people for 40 years).

That's a very sobering problem. We probably need a world-wide "one child per woman" law, immediately and for the forseable future, to prevent this from happening, otherwise Global Warming will accelerate even more than it already has in the past 2 decades or so.

in the past 2 decades, average global warming per decade pushed average global temperatures up 0.11F per decade, or 11/100ths of a degree per decade. On land, the temperature rose nearly double that rate, because dry air and silica warm nearly twice as fast as moist oceanic temperatures, due to water's insanely high specific heat capacity.

Be prepared for world-wide drought and famine by the time the 40 year period is drawing to an end, on or about 2065 or so, which for most of you reading this, you'll still be alive to experience the insane heat waves, forest fires, and heat-driven famines which will be occurring by then.

The Bright side? Global Warming is expected to weaken Tropical Cyclones on average due to increased vertical wind shear.

that self contradicted global warming crisis. as co2 adds like you predicted. the storms that kill will be much deadlier and extreme. kllling even more people and animals more and more. then less people- less co2- less severe storms. the sobering problem stops.

I have said for years that the population explosion is a real thing. When I was a kid I still remember TV commercials about the dangers of population explosion. Then all of a sudden it was not a thing anymore.

[SeekerOfTruth007]

Even ignoring Global Warming for half a moment, watch this:

Average Wealth = Global Resources / Population

It's a simple formula. the higher the population, the more poverty.

@SeekerOfTruth007 I aways say there are too many people. I live in a crazy democrat state where supposedly people are leaving in droves to more citizen friendly places. Still the traffic is unbearable and it is impossible to find a parking space. Try to go to the beach on a Saturday and it is wall to wall people. People are everywhere like dogshit.

[SeekerOfTruth007]

Speaking of dogshit, some states have so little drinking water, they've been recycling sewer water for decades and that's what you drink.

Fortunately I live in a town with good water. I volunteer to give water samples out of my faucet for testing and oit always comes back good. We have a faucet at the DPW barn where people from other towns come and fill their jugs up.

Thanks for the MHO

This is fkn ridiculous and not going to happen

[SeekerOfTruth007]

Global average sea level provably rose by about 1.5 inches in the past 10 years, and the sea level in the Gulf of Mexico/Gulf of America rose by 5 inches in that same time period.

The rate of sea level rise is increasing as a double-exponential on a decadal time period.

In 40 years, that runway will be under water.

[In_Trance]

Not happening. Take any major city or any piece of land the borders a body of water for that matter.
How about new orleans? According to experts it should have been underwater years ago.
But it's not. Not any closer than it was 100 years ago.

Because climate change is a hoax

[SeekerOfTruth007]

New Orleans is known to be sinking into the ocean at a rate of at least 1 inch per YEAR for most locations, and a rate of 2 inches per YEAR in and around the Levee protection system, which is just under 20 years old.

Do some real research. I used to be a denier, like you, then I tried to prove AGW wrong and accidentally converted myself to believing in it.

The melt curve for ice is double exponential, due to population growth and further industrialization. Then you have THERMAL EXPANSION OF SEA WATER, which becomes significant as average temperature of the entire column of water rises by 1F or more.

Because climate change is a hoax I've actually done some research and been to New Orleans myself.
According to your calculations, over your lifetime New Orleans should be underwater by 4 ft.
That didn't happen. Nor is it happening now.

Climate change is a hoax.

[SeekerOfTruth007]

new Orleans currently ranges from 6 to 30 feet below sea level. The only thing that makes the city semi-viable is the pumping stations and the levee system. Informed people are moving out of New Orleans, as the city has net negative population change since Katrina happened.

[exitseven]

no kidding. i have been saying this for over ten years.

[888theGreat]

With dumbass Trump, we will have world war and population will be reduced by 1/3rd. So you have nothing to worry about.

[6942Dantheman]

Like all others, No.

[msc545]

No, I don't think it is.

Don’t care
