Global warming: Been there, done that. Forward-looking folks are adjusting their fretting machinery now to something called Cycle 25. Button up your overcoats. Ice is on the way.
Global warming, which was mostly a scam invented by researchers looking for government grants, is over. The great warming phenomenon, which was supposed to have sent polar bears to vacation in Miami Beach by now, ended in 1997.
Britains Met Office, which tracks weather and makes forecasts, and the University of East Anglia Climatic Research Unit, the source of much global warming research (some of it faked, some of it not), agree, according to the London Daily Mail, that Planet Earth could even be heading for an icy patch to rival the 70-year temperature drop that saw frost fairs held on the [frozen-over] Thames in the 17th century. They call this Cycle 25.
The report of the findings in Old Blighty follows an op-ed essay in the Wall Street Journal, signed by 16 eminent scientists, including both physicists and other climate researchers, that the panic promoted over global warming is not now, and never has been, shared by large numbers of scientists, many very prominent.

It will take a long battle to convince some climate scientists that the sun is important. It may well be that the sun is going to demonstrate this on its own, without the need for their help.Henrik Svensmark, Denmarks National Space Institute. Mail on Sunday, 29 January 2012
Nature is about to carry out a very interesting experiment. Ten or 15 years from now, we will be able to determine much better whether the warming of the late 20th Century really was caused by man-made CO2, or by natural variability.Pal Brekke, Norwegian Space Centre, Mail on Sunday, 29 January 2012
If temperatures continue to stay flat or start to cool again, the divergence between the models and recorded data will eventually become so great that the whole scientific community will question the current theories. The real issue is whether the model itself is accurate.Nicola Scafetta, Duke University, what government grants do i qualify for
Its already happened.
They changed the name to Climate Change.
instead of global warming,it could be about the possible freezing or raining in the Sahara,ask the scientists or the weather forecasters,they never get anything wrong.
The US government has spent over $ 79 billion since 1989 on policies related to climate change. Where do we go to get our money back?
Seventy-Nine Billion dollars of Taxpayer money wasted
Put down your crack pipe, bong and your wifes braided arm pit hair.
I’m just hopin’ to get myself one of them grants.
A dome of CO2?
That's as likely to happen as putting a teabag into a cup of hot water until the water has become tea, then coming back a while later to find all the "tea" components have drifted back into the teabag and the water is clear again.
Ain't gonna happen.
NIAMFY.
Thanks for the ping to a good article. More people are learning that Glow-Bull Warming is a scam. And as you said, more people are coming to realize that science is for sale.
A theory is am explanation of a series of facts.
Since AGW is very short in the hard fact department, it is a misuse of the word theory to apply it anywhere near AGW.
Unfortunately, not yet translated into English.
The same people who designed the climate models, design “can’t lose” systems for winning at Blackjack.
Nope, not a record the record is about 14 or 15 if I remember correctly.
Be careful DW, or they’ll put in a cave with no bugs!
It was not, and never will be, a “loss” for Warmists, since they not only made money directly from the grants, etc., and made inroads against Western civilization; but also were able to skim a percentage into peripheral groups to further other assaults on Humanity.
Another one of their big wins from all this is Agenda-21.
Another is all the new, related EPA regulations in the US, and analogous ones abroad. Even if most are killed by this time next year, under a new administration, rolling back the damage already done will take many years.
None of the models match real world observation. There are way too many variables to account for at our current level of technology.
it used to be that when you said “computer models show” it MEANT something
because we modeld simple things and got the results we expected
But as a 20 year software engineer I can tell you this- I can program software to tell you anything you want it to tell you
And that is what the globull warming people have done

It didn’t really exist.
It was the result of two factors: The loss of the Siberian weather stations due to the collapse of the soviet system, and the change in character of existing weather stations throughout the developed world as urban expansion’s heat islands surrounded them.
When those two factors are accounted for, the decline line becomes perfectly continuous from 1934 to the present.
Easy! Just keep doubling your bet each time you lose; if you run out of money, then keep borrowing from China until you hit.
An even easier & cheaper system is to open Blackjack casino.
There are not, nor ever will be any “Domes of CO2.”
CO2 is a heavy gas, and remains close to the surface, where it is desperately needed.
With my luck, that’s where I’ll be.

What if we ‘grant’ you the right to remain silent?
Its an offer you no canna refuse...
