My personal theory is it’s undersea venting from volcanoes etc.
Another thing to consider is all the trillions of gallons of water that have been pumped from the aquifers all around the world and most of it has evaporated into the atmosphere. That has to be having an effect on a lot of things.
The humans who start to believe in doomsday prophecies are 100% correct. They are correct because these people tend to be middle aged and they suddenly realize they're going to die sooner than the number of years they've been alive.
Doomsday is real for them, they see clearly time is running out and they're definitely going to die, and they project this onto society when in fact it's their own personal demon
I was going to say that too. "If I'm going to end, the whole world sure as heck better end with me." So the thinking goes.
Then we get the latest incarnation of climate change nutcases telling everybody we're going to burn to death, freeze to death, get blown away or drown. Take your pick.
"If one is interested in the future of a forest — which tree species will thrive and which will diminish, or whether those threatened by a fast-changing climate will successfully migrate to newly hospitable lands — one should look to these seed-dispersing animals."
It is super-annoying at best, propangandistic at worst. It has to stop.
Climate Alarmist Reasoning: we need to tax more fiat currency from successful countries to save the mice, which will save the planet from climate change.
They would rather people starve today for sure by banning fertilizer and freeze by banning oil & gas than take a chance that maybe, perhaps, 30-50 years from now the water will rise in a few places and it's going to be much hotter in a few places
Exactly

Maybe that is why they recur with such frequency throughout history.
Very interesting perspective. Absolutely true. As REM says "it's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine."

Climate-friendly farming is more productive per acre than modern industrial farming, it's just less profitable. Don't get twisted up into thinking that feeding and heating people is at stake: environmentalism is solely a risk to corporate profits, that's why the pushback is so severe.
We're gonna run out of fertilizer and oil before it ever gets banned. And the water rise is already happening (Miami being an obvious example).

They have kept track of the rate of sea rise for several hundred years and it has not changed.
Actually, that could happen. Ice melting and sea level rising change the isostatic pressure distributions on the mantle plates. Plates start slipping around and causing others to reposition. Volcanoes will further redistribute earth mass and spew GW chemicals and the whole thing gets into a feedback loop. Scientists will say 'see I told ya so' and the deniers will go deaf. Religionists will say it is the hand of GAWD punishing man for sins. It might look like the apocalypse, and for some it will be.
Wow, you're ahead of the WashCompost. Congratulations on some outstanding mental gymnastics and bonus points for fear mongering and not-so-subtle digs at religious people.
