A lot of it is American water....from Nooksack River.

Bloody 'Mericuns, bringing their bloody rivers over here, taking the flooding jobs of our native rivers.

waking up to nuclear is needed

and of course the power needed to pull carbon from the air.

This should be required reading for everyone on the planet

and finally a terrific role for block chain

one of those million Manhattan Projects that reducing carbon requires...this is really neat...especially what comes out. https://edition.cnn.com/2021/12/01/euro ... index.html

forgive the title ....

"When we add nitrogen from air to the slurry, it changes the environment to stop methanogenesis basically. So it drops the pH down to just below six and we're catching that early. So it stops the breakdown of those methane microbes that then release the gas to the air," Puttick said, adding their patented technology is the only one of its kind.
What comes out of the machine is an odorless brown liquid, called NEO -- a Nitrogen Enriched Organic fertilizer.
According to N2, their NEO has double the nitrogen content of regular nitrogen fertilizer; one of the most commonly used fertilizers to boost production of corn, canola and other crops.
Puttick said independent tests showed their technology reduces methane emissions from slurry by 99%. It also cuts by 95% the emission of ammonia; described by the EU as one of the main sources of health-damaging air pollution.
On a 200-cow dairy farm this equates to "a reduction of 199 tons of carbon equivalent every year with one machine," said Puttick, adding that they're now looking to scale out the technology across the UK livestock sector, and have recently installed it at a pig farm
costs about what a tractor does and likely subject to carbon rebates.

nah - weather ....tornados are frontal collisions not much impacted by AGW tho moisture in the atmosphere has some affect

Unseasonally warm seas in the gulf of Mexico though.

There is also evidence to suggest that tornado patterns have shifted geographically. The number of tornadoes in the states that make up Tornado Alley are falling, while tornado events have been on the rise in the states of Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Tennessee, and Kentucky.

There is speculation that some of these changes are linked to climate change and its effect on the jet stream. Tornado outbreaks have also coincided with rising ocean temperatures.

Damn answered this and guess I did not post it. :fp: Short form - yeah weather gradients drive more severe weather and tornados operate in that gradient. So warmer Gulf, cooler Arctic dipole incursions due to meandering jet stream could have impact.
