“There are facts, and there are beliefs, and there are things you want so badly to believe that they become as facts to you.”
And here I thought the science was settled; now this: Scientists say solar system affects Earth’s carbon cycle.
What’s up with that?
"Our work shows that for the 18 million years or so in between the Triassic-Jurassic mass extinction and the Toarcian oceanic anoxic event, Earth's global carbon cycle was in a constant state of change. Periodic changes in the shape of Earth's orbit around the sun impacted on the amount of energy received by Earth from the sun, which in turn impacted climatic and environmental processes, as well as the carbon cycle, on local, regional and global scales."
Energy…from the sun influenced the what!? “Climatic processes…” and the *shudder* “carbon cycle”!!?
Huh, and I thought that was the exclusive realm of coal, cars and cows.
Across shorter timescales, tectonic shifts and the eruption of large igneous provinces look like the primary drivers of shifts in Earth's climate. These factors work to drive the planet's carbon cycle, researchers of the new study said, but when Earth's carbon cycle is examined across larger timescales, the influence of larger planetary processes is revealed.
Well now, where does that leave us, not to mention all the Democratic presidential candidates? Are they now admitting that they shut down coal-fired power generation plants for nothing? That I don’t have to walk, bike or take public transportation to work? And that I can keep my plastic straws? Don’t be silly. In perhaps one of the best example of how true believers deal with cognitive dissonance climate warmists, like all true believers when faced with facts completely contrary to their belief, will double down.
According to the latest analysis, ancient carbon-cycle patterns suggest Earth today should be cooling. However, the influence of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions has overpowered the influence of the cosmos on Earth's carbon cycle, causing Earth to rapidly warm.
Don’t you love it when a plan comes together? Or in this case refuses to fall apart, despite all evidence to the contrary.
But that’s okay, you just keep on believing whatever you need to believe, solar system denier. I know I can’t change your mind so I’ll just dedicate today’s song to all you Global Warmists out there who are suffering from CCD (Climate Cognitive Dissonance) and I pray a cure will be discovered soon.
This is a great cover version, performed by Rufus Wainwright and featuring an impossibly young Dakota Fanning…where do the years go? Oh yes – “Across The Universe"

That must be where The Beatles got that line from.
Well done MOTUS, and what a great post NOBO2012,
The BIG VIEW is entirely the proper context.
The totalitarian society climate change , global warning groud have an entirely claustrophobic view of the vastness of time and the continually changing environment which does so exclusively of what various species might inhabit Earth, including man.
We do not live life in the fast lane.
We live life in the VAST lane, like it or not.
That’s just the way it is.
So we use ALL that space to be light on our feet, adaptive and cool.
The heat of tyranny is no solution to being adaptive. Its actually the opposite of adaptation to changing conditions, whatever they might be. Man controls none of the factors evident in the VAST LANE of life.
“Guru Jai,” indeed.Even the ancients knew of that truth, but we need constant reminders, LOL. That’s the the dance of the Kali Yuga era.

Thanks for the Rufus Wainwright video. He does a good job & I like the Magritte imagery.
Milankovitch Cycles, originally dismissed by the scientific community, were proven when deep ice core samples showed repeated periods of cooling and warming dating back 400,000 years.
Taught my kids about them when they were young.
Climate change is real. Man made climate change is a scam.
None of the proposals to “save the planet” actually focus on how to bring humanity through the next serious phase; hence, they are a scam.
So with a plastic straw and an SUV, I am more powerful that the universe?
Thanks, Gorgeous music, I am partial to it.

So that’s what George Harrison has been saying in that song!
IMO we spend entirely too much time debating the validity of the faux science used to push leftism.
That’s the way they like it; we expend time casing their red herrings and they get on with the agenda.
The whole argument turns on the assumption that there is a problem and we must debate how to solve it.
The truth of the matter is this: they start with their goal (subjecting us to tax and therefore control) and work from there to find or create a convenient crisis to which their intent can be the “solution.”
