News / Coal-Powered Poland Refuses to "Go Green". EU Ain't Happy. [304]

I hear the same thing from farmers and hunters all over Poland. One has to be blind not to see it...

I am not denying this - the point is maybe we look for the reason where it is not - just look at the year 2010: -20 celsius and 40cm of snow in late November and a pretty long and snowy winter altogther

.that in turn is threatening all coastal settlements..

you couldn't even say what impact the warming of the climate has so far on the sea levels -

as I said I am not a climate change denier - and I understand that the obvious culprit seems to be humankind's emmission of CO2 - but there are other possible factors at play - there's for example much more water vapour in the air than c02 which is also creating a greenhouse efffect - we don't know the average cloud cover in the past for the most part which highly influences albedo especially during summers

as for the poles - the talk is about melting of ice cover in the arctic during notrh hemisphere summers - the point is that this is not where most of frozen water there is on Earth as exemplified by no obvious marking in the rising of sea levels

much more flooding

you mention things that are not obviouse direct outcomes of the rising sea levels (more flooding, more extreme weather) - also I asked for recent data say covering the time since year 2000 -

I am not a climate change denier - but we should be precise with data or otherwise it is just fear mongering - maybe there are other factors in play than man-emitted CO2 in the climate change btw - a couple of years ago I quoted in one of debates here a source in NOAA (i guess you know what NOAA is) that stated that we still don't have perfect models for predicting cloud forming - just think for a moment how much difference cloud cover makes on a summer day

you post some basic google search for "rising sea levels" and you expect me to believe it's all over the news - I asked a serious question how much did the sea level rise - about 15 cm? more? and there were voice from other forums users who reported their own findings - but talk to the brainwashed

for all who read this and who are not bothered to look up the diagrams Bratwurst posted - they say nothing about how much sea levels rose - only how much they are predicted to rise based on certain assumptions or in a very long perspective

It IS in the news all the time, why don't you google it for once...

man you're beyond pale - you don't even read the diagrams you post - I feel free not to look up your other links because of that

Because you can't see it it isn't happening? Are you kidding me???

you must be kidding yourself and everyone else - if there were a flooding because of the rising sea levels it would be in all news all the time - alarmist scientists would be constantly howling and forecasting catastrophic dooms - I happen to read a lot of the internet and nothing like that happened - so yeah kid yourself some more

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]

Well our own government is already doing a great job of increasing power prices.

our (Polish) government is bound by the EU law to sell rights to CO2 emissions - this is the rights that make electricity more expensive and the decision was not made by this government

Law / Poland's Muzzle Law [22]

Judges and law enforcement officers exposed in these recordings to restore dignity

please use English next time - it does not make sense

I live here, I watch TV in Polish, I read internet in Polish - and it is pretty obvious to me that most judges especially the top echelons are chums with the opposition - this was especially dire situation when presidents of courts (I don't know how to translate it better into English) assigned cases to particular judges to their liking

you rely on coverage in English language media which skims over the gist of the topic and are often written by POLISH journalists hostile to current government

I have several Polish friends living in Poland also F.Y.I.

your Polish friends are probably all opponenst of the current goverment

Language / "Ego" as an ending in Polish Names? [19]

That ending will also appear if talking about pure ownership 'Mr Sikorski's car ' is 'samochod Pana Sikorskiego'

it is called genetive case - one of the most important roles of genetive is to mark possession (ownership)

as for why genetive is used for street names (also schools have patrons in their names - like Uniwersytet Adama Mickiewicza): it's a matter of convention

Law / Poland's Muzzle Law [22]

to further silence critical judges and prosecutor

you don't live here so you have no actual idea what is going on in Poland - as one of opposition MPs said in a leaked tape : 'judges won't harm us' - I guess you understand what that means

coal has problems but better that than relying on Putin and Saudis.

wait for Timmermans to make electricity in Poland twice as expensive as it is now

Language / Origin of / reason for spelling /tɕi/ as <ci> in the Polish language [11]

I'm almost 100% sure Polish "CI" is never pronounced as "TSI"

there are words or word elements in Polish where ci is pronounced as tsi - the chemical term cis comes to mind

cis is also a Polish word for a tree (yew) and in that case ci is pronounced as ci in Marcin

News / Scandals, conflicts, tensions, arguments - real life examples from Poland [492]

And that makes it ok?

I haven't said it makes anything ok - I never heard of the Banaś guy before - he probably wasn't screened enough by the special forces - if PiS could remove him they probably would because hi case is a thorn in PiS side - the thing is they can't - they can try persuading him to step down but he has so far shown no desire to
