That does not make them correct on climate or Mueller.

These “scientists” learnt all about klimate change in gummint skools. They blinded me with pseudoscience.

“So, there was “climate change” from 800 to 1600 A.D.”

Our ancestors caused that by riding in their Ox carts instead of solar powered carts.

Just think of all those Ox farts over 800 years.

A few years ago, 2013 and 2015, while driving through my old home of NE New Mexico, I was shocked to see it green for the first time in my 72 years!

In the past, it has always been a hard, hot dry land.

I think that California is in a similar situation.

Young Nathan Steiger the PhD fearmonger:

According to his bio, "came to Columbia University as a NOAA Climate and Global Change Postdoctoral Fellow"...IOW, he's supposed to find things changing or lose his subsidy.

His comments are full of caveats..."could", "might"...uh huh.

The current situation in the West is that it's recovered significantly from recent droughts. Will there be more? Of course. Will they be anthropogenic? Maybe a teeny bit in local areas.

But Nathan is trying to fluff all that up, because he's an ideological kid spouting top level crap. And he needs the stipend..

Really? Last night on the local news they were almost giddy proclaiming Arizona drought free for the first time in who knows how long.

I guess they were lying.

I wonder if these “scientists” can explain why these very same conditions existed before AGW?

So, there was “climate change” from 800 to 1600 A.D.

"Two of the factors were warming sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean and high radiative forcing, which occurs when the atmosphere traps more energy from the sun than it radiates back into space..."

IOW, the solar constant is variable, the sun was just a hair hotter 800 to 1600 A.D.

That warmed the Atlantic, and pumped a wee bit more energy into the atmosphere than could passively radiate out into space.

“Let me see if I’ve got this right.

The Mojave Desert is going to be dry due to global warming.

Is that it?”

Correct. The Sonoran Desert as well.

If they were so smart they would have invented a Weather Machine by now. I think I saw a Hollywood Movie where they did just that. Crank up the CGI Machines!

Since we all know the Climate does change over time, and did so long before the Industrial Age of Man, there is nothing we can do about it.

You adapt or your die. The Wooly Mammoths didn’t get the Memo before the last Ice Age hit.

So these mega droughts that occurred between 800 and 1600 were caused by man made globul warming of the 20th and 21st centuries?

Yes... it correlates with a rise in Sport Utility Wagons pulled by farting Oxen.

yes... SUW's and flatulence were the culprits.
