How to Measure the Temperature of the Earth
americanthinker.com ^ | 3/2/2020 | Jerry Powlas

Posted on 03/02/2020 9:58:16 AM PST by rktman

If atmospheric science is not science, what is it? It is the nearest thing to a religion, particularly for the liberal secular humanists, atheists, and agnostics of the left. It has a pretty close copy of the concept of original sin and drips with guilt. It is the lever that politicians on the left will use to change our economy, violate our constitution, and restrict our freedoms. It is offered as the "big problem" that only "big government" or maybe "world government" can solve.

This stuff is "junk science." These folks read ice core samples and tree rings the way fortune-tellers read tea leaves. They start with the conclusion and search for the evidence. Anybody who uses the term "settled science" doesn't understand science. Science is never settled.

This slight blip in the "record" book is just that. A blip. And a normal one at that. If the 'climageddonists' think this is bad, the alternative is much worse. Butt they won't even consider it and instead rely on an autism spectrum puppet to follow. Mr. Powlas may get and angry call from grrrrreta if he's not careful. :-)

I would take a very large thermometer and stick it straight up San Francisco.

I read that a lot of temperature difference is that years ago the weather stations were at airports...back in the fifties airports were mostly out in the country...now there surrounded by suburbs..which create more heat...

Rectal temperature is always most accurate.

Any scientific measurement that does not include a calculated estimate of uncertainty truly is junk science. We are always hearing things like the temperature of the Atlantic Ocean has risen by one degree. But what is the calculated estimate of uncertainty? It might be +/- two degrees. That would make the original measurement worthless.

But it gets worse. No one is allowed to debate any of this. As Mike Bloomberg has said, if you don’t accept Climate Change, you are anti-science. So you must be silenced.

“ Rectal temperature is always most accurate”

So all we need is to monitor temperatures in DC?

One really big one should do it.

About a half mile wide or so.

Good article.

I once created stumped man made climate change religiouso with a couple of questions. I first had to make him swear to honestly answer the questions directly.

1.) Given the known geological history of our planet, do you agree that the global environment, including average surface temperature is, and has been, always changing and that it is not static?

2.) Is it better for humans if the average global surface temperature is very gradually increasing or decreasing over hundreds or thousands of years?

After answering and pausing, he started to explain the rate of heating is too fast and that’s humans’ fault. Oh, what is the correct rate of temperature change per year? That ended it.

There is no science to it because 1.) There is no control that all can agree constitutes a “normal” 2.) There is no reproducible experiment that provides consistent empirical evidence to support CO2 “super conductor” status as a greenhouse gas.

The average temperature ‘of the Earth’ is about 5000 degrees C.

I’m still waiting for an answer to my question, “how did the Medieval Warm Period occur, considering SUV’s had not been invented?”

The temperature of ever point on earth is continuously variable

“if you don’t accept Climate Change, you are anti-science”

And the only idiots saying that AREN’T “scientists” and probably couldn’t pass either Calculus 101 or even high school statistics.

They’re journalism and poli sci majors making noise about something they utterly have no clue about.

Ask any of them what a particular solution of the Navier-Stokes equations is and you’ll get the famous deer in the headlights look.

Toss these against the wall:

1. Define the “correct” temperature range for the planet.

2. Define the “correct” humidity range for the planet.

3. Define the “correct” mean sea level for the planet.

4. Define the “correct” amount of precipitation for the planet.

5. Define the “correct” makeup of the atmosphere.

6. Define the “correct” amount of sea ice at the N/S poles.

7. Define/explain past glaciation and subsequent warming without any input from humans.

Even more importantly, why was it followed by the Little Ice Age?
