Global Warming? Oops! Never Mind!

The AMERICAN THINKER ^ | April 1, 2013 | Jonathon Moseley

[Moseley]

What was the Earth's temperature yesterday? Nobody knows. In fact, it's a ridiculous question. Almost every place on Earth today has a different temperature from that of any other location. So, is our planet's temperature rising? Do we even know?

However, it is officially admitted: Global warming stopped 15-20 years ago. The mainstream media is struggling very hard to explain this away. They admit that the Earth stopped warming 15 to 20 years ago. But just you wait -- disaster is coming unless we vote liberals into office. They cannot explain the pause. Yet they "know" global warming will kill us all unless we vote Democrat.

So was global warming ever real? Or is this hysteria a hoax, like the Y2K computer disaster that never happened?

Just concerning today's temperature first, we would have to measure hundreds of thousands of locations and then average temperatures from all over the planet. We don't have that many weather stations. So we don't even know what yesterday's temperature for the planet was. We certainly don't know what the temperature was a hundred years ago or a thousand years ago.

Are today's weather measurements accurate? Heck no. Weather stations are measuring the jet blast from airplanes taking off at airports, the heat from air conditioners on office building rooftops, the heat of asphalt parking lots and streets and cities.

Meteorologist Anthony Watts is one of the greatest heroes of truth and freedom. His blog "Watts Up With That?" has changed the world and is one of the most influential resources on global warming. Watts became truly famous with his recurring "How Not to Measure Temperature" series reviewing the world's automated weather stations.

Okay, okay! Do you want me to dump on my editor? The paragraph was shortened re: Y2K. In my original draft, the distinction was more clear.

But you get the point. No offense intended. Sorry.

This is not even weak validation, it is strong refutation.

They are stuck. By claiming the science was settled, they have no where to run. One of the dumbest groups of people this planet has ever produced. They do not have much of an ability to think ahead.

The second group of the planets dumbest people, are the morons who decided running nuclear plants that required external power to prevent a meltdown, was a workable idea. They also lack the ability to think ahead.

The notion that Y2K was a hoax is being repeated often — you're certainly not the only one to do so. (And, apparently, it was your editor who muddied things up.) It's likely to become a “meme”* — but that would destroy any possibility of learning from the experience.

* (The term “meme” is one of the most overused and misused, made-up words ever. I hate it — but, I've tried to use it correctly here. If there is a correct way to use it. )

A lot of media outlets will be slowly but surely walking this back. In a couple of years, they will be *denying* that they ever helped propagate the AWG scam. Heck, they’ll be *denying* that anyone ever suggested that global warming was a concern. They already do that, regarding the big “coming ice age” scare of the 1970’s.

Tis easy to relate to the NT Book to the Romans, Chapter one, verse twenty two, where it is written:

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

[justa-hairyape]

And the one easy way humans can accurately gage temperatures without any man made devices, is water frozen or liquid, is attacked by the AGW acolytes when they tried to laughably insinuate that more snow means more warmth.

[justa-hairyape]

And how do we stop Congress? They are STILL talking about the carbon tax.

This is the dire situation we are currently stuck within and it will end in overthrow of all Western Governments or the annihilation of all Western Governments.

Western Governments are broke. Broke beyond broke. They need new bubbles for their economic bubble generating virtual machines. AGW or Global Warming was going to be the next bubble generator for their insane economy. They cannot give it up. They need the money very badly or they will collapse.

In fact they need money so badly they forced Obamacare on the US public illegally just so they could raise taxes by denying us health care. And look what they just did to Cyprus.

Well I should not have tagged on that nuclear swipe to the AGW article. Was off topic as they say. And our nuclear workers need to concentrate all their efforts onto the Arkansas nuclear plant. They dropped a huge assembly in the turbine unit for #1 Sunday morning. It killed one and injured 6-8 more. It was so heavy it fell through a couple of floors in the turbine building, shorted out power for unit #1. That unit was shutdown due to work on turbine building. It has lost offsite power though and is cooling on generators.

Unit #2 was at 100 % power and shutdown due to the vibration of the falling massive assembly. Had to scram. It thought it was an earthquake. Both are running on external power. The plant has been venting steam for over a day, but it is steam that is not radioactive. Their is supposedly no circulation to the spent fuel pools.

Thinking ahead, what a concept.

A sensitive matter

The climate may be heating up less in response to greenhouse-gas emissions than was once thought. But that does not mean the problem is going away

The MSM AND liberal democrats are scammers. This is a hoax - and both groups know it..

[ApplegateRanch]

I’ve tried & tried explaining significant digits to both Libs & normal, run of the mill ignoramuses, with zero comprehension on their part.

Worse yet is LEAST SIGNIFICANT DIGIT, when measurements have been made with multiple instruments that have different degrees of accuracy & precision.

Oh, that’s right; they also don’t understand the difference between ACCURACY & PRECISION. It draws a blank stare, followed by, “yeah, right; whatever,” when you try to explain that a precise reading can still be an inaccurate measurement.

[Moseley]

Thank you! Yes, it is coming back to me on “Worse yet is LEAST SIGNIFICANT DIGIT, “

So if you try to compile data consisting of studying bacteria, tree rings, and accurate thermometer readings, the accuracy is limited by the least accurate measurement put in the mix. So the entire enterprise is no more accurate than making guesses based on studying long-dead bacteria.

The religion of deception and the rise of the anti-christ.

That will be the hallmark of the anti-christ, he will cause deception to increase.

[Mr. K]

its surprising how difficult some people find that concept
