Is he not the one Mark Steyn was sued by?
The biggest myth is to say that climate should be static.
That’s pretty much the same temperature as the caves I’ve explored in Virginia.
PS - how do you get the “degree symbol” to show up in your posts? I’ve not been able to accomplish it.
The long term issue is how do we adapt to climate change over which we have no control. I am not even sure how much climate change there is right now but history tells us the climate will change.
You might appreciate this...
I had a liberal roommate in college. We debated Global Warming all the time. I admit, that "life" on earth affects the average global temperature on earth, including humans (heat, humidity, plants, etc.). He thought he had me. So I told him, along the same lines, I, by myself, can affect the global sea level by urinating in the ocean or removing a 5 gallon bucket of water. Then the argument raged.
Him - "You can't affect sea level like that!"
Me - "Are we talking about science here or not? If I add ANY volume of a liquid to a contained amount of liquid, will the volume increase, regardless of how minuscule? Will that change the level in the container? Science?"
Him - "You cannot scientifically measure that change. It's insignificant!"
Me - "EXACTLY! It's the same with human's contribution to this planet's climate."

Oh, he must be talking about Catastrophic Anthropogenic Climate Alterations.
The acronym explains the science.
Mann has a lot of guts to even show his face and squeak out some inane drivel, after his mendacious fiasco with the imaginary hockey stick.
:: In evolution, those species who cannot adapt to change will die off. ::
And some adherents want us to adapt and stop exhaling...CO2.
Seems to me that DDT did a damn good job of controlling malaria, worldwide.
Yep.
Mann is sort of what most kids would call a “poopy head”.

Immigrants, even infected ones, will not cause a spike in malaria. In the overwhelming majority of cases, the disease is spread due to several particular species of tropical mosquitos spreading the parasite from person to person.
An infected pregnant woman can pass the parasite on to her fetus, and it can be [rarely] spread via blood transfusion, but for the most part the “right” mosquito is needed for transmission of the disease - and those mosquitos do not live in the UK.
There are a lot of communicable diseases the Brits should be worried about immigrants bringing to their country, but malaria is not one of them.
It is a presupposition that forms an hypothesis. It’s all downhill from there.
It did a great job of reducing malaria cases by greatly reducing the number of malaria-spreading mosquitos where it was used. But, even DDT does not have a 100% kill rate, and the disease will still be present anywhere those mosquitos still live.
lol.....
:: Quite frankly oil saves lives. ::
Coincidentally, bulk DDT is derived partially from petroleum refining.
If you’re using Windows, go to your start button and type in the search for “character map”. Find your special key and copy it then paste it in.
It’s a little bit involved, but you can put the character map on your taskbar if you’re going to use it often.
That’s an easy question: the answer is 42.
Actually, the researchers care about their gravy train and Democrats care about the power they can grab.
We are currently in the Quaternary ice age which is 2.855 million years old and it will probably last between 40 and 100 million years with periods of glaciation followed by 10,000 year inter-glaciation periods like our current Holocene period.
