Says Google AI: "Recent data indicates that the tropical Pacific has warmed up, ending the recent La Niña event. This has transitioned the region into a neutral state according to Climate Prediction Center." La Niña brings a surplus of precipitation to the plains of the northern
...hemisphere, and indeed its appearance last year saved a number of Saskatchewan farmers from bankruptcy. We've had lots of the expected rain in Saskatoon this summer, but wildfires have gotten worse nonetheless. Soon we will be into the drought ridden El Niño cycle. What then?
Global warming is overwhelming the effects of the ENSO weather cycles and the Boreal is burning. How long will it be before Saskatoon becomes unlivable? We've had over 40 years to consider the consequences of anthropogenic climate change, but have not taken responsibility.
Climate change deniers propagandized by the oil and gas industry have done us in. The governments of Alberta and Saskatchewan have been taken over by the frontier extractors are mounting a rear-guard action to protect profits.
The bottom line is this: The very notion of expanding oil and gas production without a commensurate reduction in carbon emissions is insane. Scott Moe's refusal to stop burning coal to produce electricity is criminal. #skpoli
