Dust Storms

You haven't shown shit in this thread Bodi. You've implicated livestock and posted a video of introduced rodents. Last time I was in a dust storm, it was in the Mallee region of central Australia, where water extraction for irrigation dries the land, where clearing of trees for farmland raises the water table and increases soil salinity, and exposes the soil to wind erosion, and the grazing, or feral populations, of hoofed animals destroys the microbial crust the keeps fertile topsoil together.

Each of these factors is anthropogenic.

Wind erosion caused by overgrazing isn't anything? Look, wild animals and natural processes play a significant role in dust storm formation. Large herbivores like as bison, antelope, and wild horses are overgrazing landscapes, stripping vegetation and exposing soil to wind erosion Mongolia used to be lush

Still unsourced BS re: wildlife.
 
Bodi said:
Dust storms are caused by nature and specifically animals. Blaming mankind is misdirection. Animals directly cause the conditions for dust storms and their activities can contribute. Livestock grazing and overgrazing can damage vegetation, leaving soil exposed to wind, making it more prone to erosion. Burrowing animals can also disturb the soil, increasing the risk of dust storms. It is something that needs to be addressed going forward.

Needs to be addressed how? Killing burrowing animals?
This OP is in contention for Dumbest of the Month.

This thread is about how animals cause dust storms that contribute to climate change...

Do you have an actual cite or source, or is this just something that you heard Greg Gutfield say on FOX?

I don't watch FOX. You need to stop blaming everything that you disagree with on FOX, Republicans, Conservatives, MAGA, etc.

I pay attention to the weather... what is your excuse for ignoring Science?
 
watsup said:
It’s not science, which is why you can’t provide a source or a cite.

The weather is not science? That is hilarious...

It has become quite clear that you haven’t the slightest idea of what you are talking about. That’s why you can’t provide a source of a cite.

Amazing arguments to prove that... oh wait, you have said about 12 words and nothing in those words was evidence of anything or sourced at all.

LOL
