It’s really basic to say, “wow, it’s not as cold and there’s less snow so that’s good.”
Alaska’s snow crab harvest season was just canceled for the second year in a row because the snow crab population has dropped 90% due to higher water temperatures. There are consequences to having 8 billion of us on this planet and all of us want nice stuff, too.
Humans have fished many species to extinction but just crabs are dying off because of warmer water eh?
No where in this article does it give a reason for the declining populations.
Common sense suggests the hundreds of boats catching all the crab they can find might have something to do with it.
"The abundance of mature females was up 46% since last year, the survey found – though that is an increase from levels of mature females that were the lowest since at least the mid-1990s. Abundance of mature males in the Bristol Bay red king crab population was 21% lower than last year, the survey showed, and those numbers are also lower than counts for most years stretching back to the 1970s."
In other words, we have no data before the 70s and the levels were lower for sure at least 30 years ago.
Arctic sea ice extent is right where it's always been on average since they started keeping records in 70s. And the 70s were so cold they were predicting an ice age.
If people cared about global warming they would quit lying about things to achieve their objectives.
Ongoing studies from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration suggest that temperatures changes in the Bering Sea is linked to the decline of snow crab populations
This cites NOAA, stating that snow crabs do best in water at 2*C and lower and that water temperatures spiked from 1.5*C in 2017 to 3.5*C in 2018 and that the water stayed at an average of 3.3*C for the next two years, and that the biggest mortality of crabs was observed in 2019.
The leading theory is that the higher water temperatures increase the crabs’ rate of metabolism and they simply can’t find enough food to avoid starvation.

Oh nooooo not the crabs!!
Yeah you’re right it’s just a species that has existed for millions of years and is an important cog in the ecosystem and also supports thousands of jobs in the fishing industry. Yeah who cares about any of that
"Global warming" has also been a net positive for the Pacific Northwest, I think. On the one hand, we have had more forest fire smoke in the summer, but that's been more than offset by longer summers. I think global warming is probably a wash for the US - better for northern states, worse for the southern ones. Yes, some rich people living on the coasts may experience flooding and have to move inland. But the rest of us will be fine.
I have a question for someone who is very intelligent.
Why is it that the people who for years haven't believed scientists about global warming (these people claim its a hoax)
Are the same people who didn't believe the medical officials when they were told Covid was serious and you need a vaccination (these people claim it was a hoax)
Are the same people who really believe Donald Trump when he tells them that he won the election in 2020?

Given that there have been similar low points in the past and we've only been really looking for less than 50 years would you say it's possible that the water temperature fluctuates naturally?
The oceans have been warming for thousands of years since the glaciers retreated.

Dr. Fauci isn't a "medical official" he's a politician.
It's been proven that the vaccine doesn't stop the transmission of COVID or prevent you from getting it yourself. When the "experts" go on TV and say things that aren't demonstrably false normally people question it. When you lie and mandate vaccines that don't work or threaten people's jobs and livelihoods if they don't comply with unscientific demands people question it.
And no one alive can say the 2020 election was legitimate based on the data. The voter rolls are absolutely filthy and millions and millions of ballots were counted without having any idea if they were valid or not.
When the media is 99% Democrat and they've been running with a "Trump is worse than Hitler" narrative 24/7 for 4 years It's very likely that well meaning people will send in ballots for their parents in nursing homes and siblings who never vote and adult children who never vote.

Covid wasn't serious. Look up the hard data and do the math yourself. It was as deadly as the common cold. Don't read some sensationalized article written by a journalist. Actually pull the numbers and read the studies. The math will not match what they claim. Keep in mind that even the hard data has a ton of limitations to it. For example, many covid deaths early on were never verified to be covid, but instead assumed covid and that people who had covid at the time of death, but died for unrelated reasons like a motorcycle accident or fentanyl overdose were also counted in the total.

Simply declaring that warmer ocean temperatures are a result of anthropogenic global warming is not based on science.
Martian polar ice caps started melting at the same time as when man made rovers were deployed on the planet. This would link the martian warming to humans post industrial revolution. This link suggests anthropogenic global warming. Check mate
For any retards who can't read through the lines, this is how your "scientists" fabricate their data and compile their studies.

The number of deaths per year can be assessed rather robustly. Can you explain why a million more people died in 2020 and 2021 compared to previous years?

While there is not 100% certainty that global warming is anthropogenic (and there will never be), there is substantial more evidence than pure correlation.

At this point, models based on the hypothesis that global warming is anthropogenic have been around for 50 years and, unfortunately, generally speaking they have been remarkably accurate in predicting the global warming trends we have observed.

So why did so many more people than expected start dying when right when Covid showed up?
(and if you claim it was because of the lockdown you'll just prove you're completely ignorant on the subject)

They are scared. Someone like Donald Trump offers comforting, easy answers to things they are scared about. Its also why people follow religions, or if you prefer, every religion save the correct one...
When something terrible is happening slowly and there is little they can individually do about it ala a pandemic or global warming, its easier to reject the science - this provides comfort.

Because not too long ago scientists were predicting an ice age.
Because the government had previously pushed vaccines that did more harm than good. And because these vaccines were never tested and every week new data comes out that the vaccines were actually more dangerous than the virus.
And because democrats claimed in 2000 and in 2016 that the elections had been rigged. In 2020, democrats were speaking publicly about the voting machines being susceptible to hacking and they lacked any security - then did a 180 when those voting machines gave Biden the win and the dems claimed the voting machines were unhackable.
It's almost as if the government will lie OVER AND OVER to get more control over our lives.
Smart people don't automatically believe everything that the government says. Smart people do their own research and follow the facts.
But go ahead and give up your freedoms and your luxuries in the name of climate change while ALL the billionaire climate activists buy multi-million dollar houses just feet from the ocean. They really have a lot of confidence that sea levels are going to rise, don't they!
