Fact checking the fact checkers on my Prager U video | Climate Etc. (judithcurry.com)

The fact is, we can’t predict the future climate. It’s simply not possible. And everybody should acknowledge that. And every scientist does.
While humans do influence the climate, we can’t control the climate. To think we can is the height of hubris, the Greek word for overconfidence.
What we can do is adapt to whatever mother nature throws our way. Human beings have a long history of being very good at that. We can build sea walls, we can better manage our water resources, and implement better disaster warning and management protocols.

Weather related I suppose. Lots of shit for pets. Canned pet food, but not canned human food?

I don't understand the whole dog thing down here.

I guess I'll stock up on batteries.

Yes, it was hot here yesterday. Rain moved in and it promptly dropped to 75.

Weather in SD looks pretty good.  Duh.

We're staying at a pretty nice resort with two large pools and a number of hot tubs and a gym.  I'd be OK rarely leaving the place.  There is a Costco nearby.

In 1929, the USS Lexington was repurposed to provide emergency electrical power to Tacoma, Washington, during a severe drought that crippled the city’s hydroelectric power sources.

For about a month, the Lexington, using its turbo-electric propulsion system, generated electricity for the city.

I have been reading some "optimistic" stories about fusion of late, folks implying it's "right around the corner".  I am more than dubious about that, but perhaps it's not way way off either.  Maybe by 2050 we MIGHT have a working fusion power plant.  That is on the optimistic side.
