Climate change is a scam. Agree?

'Sinking' Pacific nation is getting bigger: study
Map showing Tuvalu in the Pacific.
The Pacific nation of Tuvalu—long seen as a prime candidate to disappear as climate change forces up sea levels—is actually growing in size, new research shows.
A University of Auckland study examined changes in the geography of Tuvalu's nine atolls and 101 reef islands between 1971 and 2014, using aerial photographs and satellite imagery.
It found eight of the atolls and almost three-quarters of the islands grew during the study period, lifting Tuvalu's total land area by 2.9 percent, even though sea levels in the country rose at twice the global average.
Co-author Paul Kench said the research, published Friday in the journal Nature Communications, challenged the assumption that low-lying island nations would be swamped as the sea rose.
"We tend to think of Pacific atolls as static landforms that will simply be inundated as sea levels rise, but there is growing evidence these islands are geologically dynamic and are constantly changing," he said.
"The study findings may seem counter-intuitive, given that (the) sea level has been rising in the region over the past half century, but the dominant mode of change over that time on Tuvalu has been expansion, not erosion."
It found factors such as wave patterns and sediment dumped by storms could offset the erosion caused by rising water levels.
The Auckland team says climate change remains one of the major threats to low-lying island nations.
But it argues the study should prompt a rethink on how such countries respond to the problem.
Rather than accepting their homes are doomed and looking to migrate to countries such as Australia and New Zealand, the researchers say they should start planning for a long-term future.
"On the basis of this research we project a markedly different trajectory for Tuvalu's islands over the next century than is commonly envisaged," Kench said.
Climate change is an excuse to fool the gullible into reducing economic output and remaining third world.
Nothing wrong wit depopulation starting with 1.7 billion chinks and 1.5 billion ah nehs.
Their priority on depopulation seems to be on the western world.Nothing wrong wit depopulation starting with 1.7 billion chinks and 1.5 billion ah nehs.
Of course the fake news media are part of the scam. They are part of every scam. From war, plandemic, climate change and etc. It's a big club, they are in it and you are not. This time they got owned badly right at their face.
Next, they will tell you there's food shortage and we should start taking GMO.
It would be great if all internal combustion cars are prohibited and only EV's are sllowed reducing latent heat discharged into our environment. Maybe a small refuction in temperature for us. Especially on a windless day.
