Does this mean we can go back to the ‘WE’RE ALL GONNA FREEZE TO DEATH!’ paranoia? I miss that.

It is no joke. That is the future as seen by elites. Perhaps a little exaggeration. After all there will be a need for Indian enginners to design toilets and the brushes that scrub them.

WOW. We all heard the same things in the late 70s. Aquanet hairspray and coal dust were going to block the sun.

So, between all this global warming and all the global cooling, cancelling each other out, we’re really suffering from “Global sameness”

WE’RE ALL GONNA... nothing?

>> “What caused our last Ice age?” <<

The only ice age we have ever had was caused by the increased precipitation from the hot oceans that remained after the Genesis judgement. (a giant global El Ni~o)

What caused our last Ice age? Why did it melt? SUV's? Coal plants? BBQ's?

Mastodon Farts?

First we're warming.
Now we're cooling.
Now we're warming
Now we're cooling
Cooling. Warming. Cooling. Warming, cooling, warming ....
Sounds like normal weather to me.

The article is claiming that there is now a well-understood mechanism which can mask global warming in the short-term and that this mechanism has always been in place. Their conclusion is that global warming is thus EVEN WORSE than they said before this and we're really in for it when the short-term effects disappear and this much higher warming appears.

There is absolutely nothing that can happen in our future which won't support their justification for removing all of our freedoms.

None of this negates the fact that so-called greenhouse global warming predicts that the upper atmosphere over the equator must heat up. It isn't heating up. That means that there is NO greenhouse effect.

It’s the newest eye of newt in the model. Since the other factors were warming their model up way too fast, they had to find something that might cool it down.

How does any of this speculation even manage to approach what we used to know as science?

Science was already departing into hand waving territory when it figured on an evolution having no planning and no miracle. But that’s tame compared to this.

This story is from a United Kingdom newspaper article. The chances of a similar article appearing in a U.S. Paper?...less than one tenth of one percent.

The hornswoggling side of this is that it isn’t subject to testability. Give us the most cockamamie scientific theory you want, and the science of old would accept it, but only if it was good science — we could reproduce it with observations if not live in the field.

Someone should put a memorial stone up for science. We remember it so fondly.

while ECS looks centuries further into the future, when the entire climate system has reached equilibrium and temperatures have stabilized."

They expect the "climate system" to stabilize? Really? Are they pretending the sun can settle down and play nice or no apparent reason? That is, without going dead?

To a totalitarian Progressive, the great thing about Climate Change® is that it can be whatever you need it to be.

The game is to tax combustable carbon no matter what.

Global temperatures have been roughly level for almost two decades - they won’t stay that way indefinitely, since the climate is dynamic.

If those global temperatures start going up soon, it’s the greenhouse effect and they resurrect the global warming hysteria - the only solution will be to tax carbon fuels.

If those global temperatures start to fall, they’ve just introduced a way to cover their bases - the only solution will be to tax carbon fuels.

And since coal, gas and petroleum are the only practical large scale energy sources for the forseeable future, they justify more tax revenue no matter what happens.
