Global heating warming up 'nights faster than days'

The climate crisis is heating up nights faster than days in many parts of the world, according to the first worldwide assessment of how global heating is differently affecting days and nights.

The findings have “profound consequences” for wildlife and their ability to adapt to the climate emergency, the researchers said, and for the ability of people to cool off at night during dangerous heatwaves.

The research is published in the journal Global Change Biology.

 

While this is an interesting exercise, all it demonstrates about climate is who is being the most persuasive and who is most easily persuaded.

Evolution in Action: Salamanders https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/video/evolution-in-action/
"a renowned evolutionary biologist at the University of California, Berkeley, as he explains why members of the same species of California salamander look and behave so differently. It's a case study of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, and an example, Wake says, that Darwin himself would have loved."
The parade of primates is, of course, pure speculation. That doesn't mean it isn't true, just that it isn't proof.

Natural selection is a tautology. It has to be true.

Darwinian Natural selection, survival of the fittest, is almost universally rejected today. It's survival of the luckiest , is the more popular view.
Survival of the fittest implies those who perish were unfit to survive, ergo, he must of deserved getting cancer. Really?

 

It really should be survival of the fit. Not the fittest. But in a competitive environment, those with the best tools (anything from actual tools, to skills and attributes) will out perform those who do not have them. It is tautological. If you can survive, luck aside, you will, if you can't, you won't.

Fit is a subjective term.
What is fit for one ecosystem is unfit for another.
A Maine bullfrog can breed with a Massachusetts bullfrog and a Massachusetts bullfrog can breed with a Connecticut bullfrog and a Connecticut bullfrog can breed with a New York bullfrog and so on, but a Maine bullfrog cannot breed with a Georgia bullfrog.
The Incas would punish their subjects by sending the highlanders to the coast and sending the coasters to the mountains. This often proved fatal for both types.

 

Your wishing influences your philosophy which then requires certain ideas to assume truth status or the entire house of cards collapses. I don't intend that to sound unkind , Will.
Let me clue you with a horrific example . Were the citizens of Nagasaki and Hiroshima less fit than Tokyo inhabitants when we bombed them?
Extremely unlucky, I'd say.

 

Of course, but that's not but a drop in the bucket of a global species. If humans, as the example, didn't have the brain power, Nagasaki and Hiroshima would never have happened, but neither would we likely be a global species.

quote by Albert Einstein, 'The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.'

That may appear to be non-sequitur. I intend it to be poignant.

 

If socialism never had happened, we wouldn't have bombed them either.

 

Japan wasn't socialist, so please explain buddy.

 

Which takes more brain power, surviving 13,000 years ago or surviving today? I say the brain power then was more than a match to brain power today. It is just easier today for stupid people to survive while being led down the garden path.

 

Hitler was socialist(national socialist). Japan was a little different but the yellow Aryan doctrine of Hitler emboldened them to reach beyond their means. Their(Hitler and Tojo) fight to the death stance took something drastic to break. The nukes actually saved lives on both sides.

They sound like socialists to me.
