I make this prediction: In 5 years, we will have learned that the red line was in error, and the temperatures will be in the bottom half of the graph.
I know this because every prediction of climate doom turned out to be false.
Entire nations were going to disappear under rising sea levels. It has not happened. I'm not saying no land sinks, but sea levels are not rising rapidly enough to prevent Al Gore (author of "An Inconvenient Truth") from buying an ocean-front home. The same applies to John Kerry and dozens of other outspoken prophets of doom who warned us that rising sea levels would submerge entire nations. They used the proceeds of their fear-mongering to buy oceanfront homes.
I remember signs in Glacier National Park telling us the glaciers would be gone by the year 2,000. It has not happened.
Others have corrected your confusion between prediction and observation. Lets instead show what we have already seen, today, that was previously predicted.
Kiribati and Tuvalu have measurable loss of land due to rising sea levels that is impacting people today. About 80% of the Maldives Islands will likely be uninhabitable within the next 25 years. The Marshall Islands have lost 18 out of their average 200cm above mean sea level height - roughly 6% of its land.
We have seen massive glacial retreat even in just the past 10 years, let alone the past 50. This is happening the world over, and at a rate that is not previously seen in the geological record (happy to argue this, thats my background). We are seeing large ice loss and lack of matching accumulation over Antarctica and Greenland - two great places to observe large scale processes. We just saw the Arctic stay largely unlocked for sea ice/shipping last season. The sum of these will take a moment to kick in, but the failure of conveyor currents will kick us all in the arse quite significantly and likely within our lifetime, and we have already seen hiccups.
A decade or two is a far better measure as it helps us understand the signal vs the noise from annual seasonality and phenomena such as el nino, la Nina, etc.
We are experiencing record heat in northern Europe, with temperatures in line with what a couple of decades ago would be expected in north Africa during the summer.
Southern Europe is already experiencing massive droughts in major urban centers.
It should be mandatory that any account suspension tell you exactly what you did, quote your actions exactly, and quote that exact part of the policy exactly.
This is a chance for the EU to actually do something, if they are listening.
I'm a former teacher who bought many thousands of pencils and only handed my kids the best pencils. If you want a better mechanical pencil, I suggest you try a few things:
1. Mechanical pencil lead gets old. I expect $100 mechanical pencils are filled with lead, then sit on a shelf for years before being sold. The same goes for anything you dig out of the bottom of a box or buy at an office supply store. Empty that ancient lead and throw it away, then refill it with some new name-brand lead from a store that sells a lot of lead, like Amazon.
2. Know the H<-->B scale. H stands for hard and means a lead that will be hard to break, but also does not mark very darkly. A #12H might be the hardest lead I have ever handled. B stands for bold and means a lead that marks very darkly/boldly but is easy to break. A #12B might be the darkest lead I have ever handled. Between a #1H and a #1B, we get the old HB (#2) pencil we all used in school.
3. Big and thick leads do not have to draw dull, wide lines. Most mechanical pencils that come with thick leads also include a sharpener to sharpen those thick leads down to a fine point. Then you scribble on a piece of paper until you get what you want. It is possible to do calligraphy with a thick mechanical pencil whose lead has been shaped by scribbling
I am not making any money off any of these recommendations, but here are my favorites:
1. Buy a package of metal 2.0 mm or 2.8 mm mechanical pencils online that you like the looks of. There are many sizes (0.3 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.9 mm, 1.3 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.8 mm, 5.6 mm, etc.) but 2.0mm is the most common size for colored mechanical pencils and I love my 2.8mm pencils. They have come a long way since we all had 0.7mm plastic Bic mechanical pencils in school.
2. Instead of a mechanical pencil, buy a box of Tigonderoga World's Best #2 wooden pencils. They are truly the world's best, but not by as large a margin as they had 15 or 20 years ago. It seems patents are expiring and other companies are catching up. Just avoid boxes in office supply stores that have all the leads broken; buy them online from retailers that move a lot of inventory.
3. Try Crayola Twistable Pencils. A 50-pc assortment is available for less than $15 USD online before S/H and sales tax. They look like kids' toys, but they are the best feeling pencils you can buy. 2.0mm pencil leads that fit these are commonly available online. These do not include erasers and are not erasable. Also, the lead colors do not exactly match the colors on the outside of the pencils.
4. If you want erasable colored pencils, avoid mechanical ones and go for Crayola Erasable wooden Colored Pencils. A 50-piece assortment is under $13 USD online before S/H and sales tax.
5. Try an Cap-O-Matic Space Pen. Then buy exactly the color and thickness of ink refill you want for it. The ink refills are replaceable. They might even make refills for your favorite pen.
This should lead to each of us learning much more accurately and much more quickly.
The final outcome of AI should be that every teenager in 2050 seems as knowledgable as someone with multiple doctorates did in 2020.
