      I guess you didn't watch it. It is pretty depressing. Bleaching is characteristic of heat stress. You've been checkmated, sadly I wish I was wrong here:pic.twitter.com/EbcOkeLTT2

      No I'm not checkmated. Bleaching is an adaptive response to any form of environmental stress. It is explicitly the expelling of current algal organisms and the subsequent reabsorption of more heat tolerant strains and has been occurring for centuries.https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2018.00283/full …

      A quote from the paper above: "... but reconstructed increases in bleaching frequency and prevalence, may suggest coral populations are reaching an upper bleaching threshold, a “tipping point” beyond which coral survival is uncertain."

      Read paper again. Yes, bleaching has occurred for centuries, that is not the issue here. Extinctions have occurred for thousands of years. The point here is that the "prevalence & frequency indicate that we may be coming to a tipping point beyond which survival in uncertain."

      This is a recurring theme in AGW. It is not the warming itself - it is the rate at which the warming is occurring which is stressing many diverse ecosystems to the point of failure to adapt. Hence all the research on making corals more resistant to heat. Good try, but no cookie.

      And this argument is a recurring specious argument. You have no basis or empirical evidence for this claim it is solely constituted by your opinion and those of others with an equally baseless a stance.

      Life adapts readily and e olutuo. Is continuous and rapid. If you want to make a claim you have to provide evidence not mere speculation.

      I have a blog post that provides an overview of coral evidence and many links. Feel free to leave a comment if you're authentically interested.https://pressingwax.wordpress.com/2018/02/04/on-coral-alarmism/ …

      Your feed suggests you have a strong partisan identity (great). But you might therefore see it as more honorable to die on your sword than concede your clan has misguidedly hitched its wagon to a caravan of evidence-rejecting goofiness on this particular topic. Science ≠ enemy.

      I am an engineer, a libertarian and a null hypothesis. my beliefs are well evidenced. I was a believer in climate change and became a skeptic because I have done thousands of hours of research into the topic. my viewpoints dont define my scientific view.

      I think you have to make a mental adjustment for the fact that the skeptics are more persuasive in their "sales" pitches. The best lawyer wins, regardless of how guilty the perp is.

          That is because science requires time & money and effort to understand. And its nuances don't lend themselves to nice soundbites. Much easier to break something down than to build something up. To be an AGW scientist you have a much higher bar to pass than critics. Latter - blog

          it has more to do with opposition pitches than skeptic versions. Emotive engagement causes an extremely strong adverse reaction to the speakers authenticity. Coupled with motte and baileys, goal post moves and debate dodging I don't find them or their suggestions credible.
