NASA Study Indicates Antarctica is Gaining More Ice Than It's Losing - (1 Viewer)

Scientists have captured Earth’s climate over the last 485 million years. Here’s the surprising place we stand now.

This article appears to be behind a paywall on a regular computer. No paywall on my Android phone.
The significance of this article is that it points to the fact that the climate extremists miss, actually avoid, certain themes in an attempt to mislead the public.

1. What is the correct temperature for Earth?
2. The viewpoint of the climate extremists is anthropocentric. Yet they attempt to (falsely) sell their viewpoint as saving the Earth. It is not from the viewpoint of allowing natural selection to progress in response to the changes in the environment. The Earth will endure whether man exists people exist or not.
3. The climate extremists mystically believe that global warming can be "solved" through the application of hocus pocus technology instead of considering the claimed cause, which is human population. If they really wish to "solve" the problem they should be promoting population control. Moreover many of the global warming extremists, don't even bother to change their environmental habits to comply with the environmental requirements they attempt to impose on the general population.

who's right, the people who claim there are too many people on earth or those like Musk who say we should be having more kids?
or does it just depend on the young/old ratio in a given country vs. the support mechanisms?

I understand Musk is working very hard to increase the population...

In this situation I disagree with Musk. He sees technology as the solution, but technology does not create the problem. Humans create the problem by requiring resources to live.

Do you think that water reclamation and desalinization is going to become a huge deal over the next few years?

It already is. But think of it this way. Technology can clean the water, but at some point the amount of available water will not be sufficient for the population.Consider the water shortage in California. Also consider the environmental impacts of moving water.
