As Algore asked in his famous movie An Inconvenient Truth:
"Do those two go together?"
Its over.
Get ready for the impossibly insane claim that the flat temperature records over the past 15 years is because of man-caused climate change. That’s right. Man is causing the climate to stop acting like a climate.
Icebergs, dead ahead!

I heard on the “news” last week that it was the warmest Tuesday on record.
As Algore asked in his famous movie An Inconvenient Truth:
"Do those two go together?"
“Challenged” eh? Yeah, I spose we’d need at least 16 years of data before we could say it shot the old APGW theory right clear to hell...
Fossil fuels are emitting particulates and stopping the natural global warming process necessary to a naturally evolving planet. We must save ourselves. Warming has stalled! /sarc
Wake me when the current ice age ends several million years from now.
fyi
Two more years and the current models are going to be invalidated, according to a peer-reviewed paper I read last year. I was searching around for *the* answer to the question “How many years of non-warming would it take to fall outside the predictions made by the model(s) to a point where the models have to be judged as flat-out wrong?”
And the answer was 17 years.
BTW, the paper was written by a researcher who supports AGW as a theory and policy responses to same, so it can’t be disparaged as being funded by “the [coal|oil|gas] companies.”
(in my best Lorax voice): I speak for the trees. Here is what the trees told me to say: You freakin’ oxygen breathers are insane. We breathe IN CO2, you morons. There’s already little enough of it as it is! WAY less than half of one percent of the atmosphere! How would you like it if we trees tried to stop making oxygen? Not that we could do it, just like you can’t stop making CO2, but still....cut the cr*p and give us something to breathe!!!!
