It’s absolutely tipping it down today.
What a novel idea by Hazel. Maybe a picture of a Tsunami wiping out some archipelago would stop those people from filling their cars with diesel or buying a quarter pounder in their local chipper.

Decent, hard working people abused and vilified for the last few weeks while the lettuce eaters spew their filth unconfined into Dublin Bay.
Urban scum.

Part 2 of 3 of this series just started on BBC2. I think this was the best of the three episodes. Goes into how the Kochs funded the pushing out of any Republicans who were moderate (relatively) on climate change in favour of screaming loonies.
Climate lies telling us the coral reef was gone not too long ago.

Today, climate deniers are hooting about something called the World Climate Declaration, an anti-science screed that claims to have 1,200 “scientists” declaring that there is no climate emergency. A couple of notes on that. 1/
The Declaration is in fact just a continuation of a project by something called the Climate Intelligence Foundation (CLINTEL), a lobby group funded by two Dutch millionaires. @DeSmog has plenty of details here:

As you’d expect, CLINTEL is deeply intertwined with fossil fuel money and many of its ambassadors are involved with US fossil fuel lobbyists the Heartland Institute and the Cato Institute. 3/
The Declaration can be found below. As you will see, the wording itself is extremely lazy, comprising a list of stale, debunked I-got-this-from-Facebook tropes. No research is cited.

When you scroll down the list of signatories, you’ll note that few come from climate-related disciplines. A notable number are from the oil and gas industry. Eight are either current or former Shell employees. 5/
The six climate change myths listed are all dealt with comprehensively on Skeptical Science’s Argument page (below). Not one of them holds up to even casual scrutiny. 6/

I don’t think teenagers backup their phones or data much. And even if they do they hardly pay for cloud storage. If they are paying for it then that’s fair enough. They were raised as capitalists. What can we expect?
As an aside I haven’t a clue what’s stored in those data centres. I would presume it’s mostly corporate stuff.
Whats the graph for? Energy use?
