How global warming can cause Europe's harsh winter weather
Deutsche Welle ^ | 02.11.2021 | Jeannette Cwiek

As Germans shiver through double-digit negative temperatures and more than 80 centimeters (30 inches) of snow in parts of the country, climate science deniers have taken to social media to argue that global warming is a hoax.

Their claim — which has been repeatedly debunked by climate scientists — is that extremely cold weather shows that carbon dioxide emissions are not warming the Earth.

In fact, the effects of global warming may even have favored the extremely cold temperature. The past week’s sub-zero temperatures and heavy snowfalls are more than just a cold winter. They are made more likely by the collapse of the polar vortex — a huge ring of cold winds raging in the Earth’s stratosphere — at the North Pole. […]

Through the burning of fossil fuels, people have heated the planet by more than 1 degrees Celsius (1.8°F) since the Industrial Revolution. The decade from 2010 to 2019 was the hottest on record. Climate change, however, doesn’t only lead to higher temperatures, but more extreme weather.

This is where the disproportionate warming of the Arctic comes into play, said Stefan Rahmstorf, head of the Earth System Analysis research department at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK). Temperatures in the Arctic have risen more than twice as fast as the global average over the past 40 years. “These changes are affecting the weather in Europe.” …

Take from the poor and middle class—and give to the rich.

That is how you cure “climate change”.

Science!

“We have always been at War with East Asia.”

“2+2 =5”

I know it is 4 but it really is 5.

George Orwell did see into the future. He was brilliant.

Global Warming is an IQ test.

And there are a lot of people stupid enough to believe in it.

Oh no, 30 cm of snow and double digit negative temps. Here, we call that Tuesday in the winter.

If they can get people to believe that it’s colder because it’s warmer, the fake alien contact thing they have in the works will be pretty easy.

The only thing global warming can’t do is match the doomsayer’s predictions.

Cold, hot, flood, drought, cyclone, gale or becalmed. One molecule explains it all. Anthropomorphic Global Warming Theory is extremely robust with respect to data. It is unfalsifiable. All observations verify it at the 100% confidence level.

Same here on Long Island New york, every other day snow, snow, snow, snow, snow. Getting up for work every morning 4am trying to chop my car out of ice is like trying to carve a statue out of marble, freakin 10 degrees out which feels like minus 10, I didn’t have gloves and afterwards my hands felt like they got hit with sledgehammers and then this weekend, MORE snow Sunday, then Tuesday, then Thursday.

But you know what? It’s ALWAYS been like this, ALWAYS. I’m 59 now, I grew up in New york city then moved out to Long Island, then Pennsylvania then Long Island. I can remember the weather from when I was 5, January, February are snow months, the coldest months, it’s always been like that. We are taking over half a century and NOTHING has changed!

PT Barnum would have a field day today with this and what gets me is WHY is this hoax believed above all the other hoaxes considering the left and their endless history of creating hoaxes? There is NOTHING that has ever come out of that party that has been honest, nothing except for JFK saying “We choose to go to the moon”

Through the burning of fossil fuels, people have heated the planet by more than 1 degrees Celsius (1.8°F) since the Industrial Revolution.

The Warmist argument is all dependent on when you choose to start your warming graph.

The Warmist choose to start their clock with the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. This is fairly logical to their argument as this is when fossil fuels began to be burned in quantity.

But inconveniently for them global temperatures had been on a rising trend for 100 years before the Industrial Revolution.

There was a most excellent article posted on how "settled science" wasn't so settled, wherein:

seems that Earth has been misplaced. According to a new map of the Milky Way galaxy, the Solar System's position isn't where we thought it was. Not only is it closer to the galactic centre - and the supermassive hole therein, Sagittarius A* - it's orbiting at a faster clip.

It further noted other "errors" in SCIENCE:

A good recent example of this is the red giant star Betelgeuse, which turned out to be closer to Earth than previous measurements suggested. This means that it's neither as large nor as bright as we thought. Another is the object CK Vulpeculae, a star that exploded 350 years ago. It's actually much farther away, which means that the explosion was brighter and more energetic, and requires a new explanation, since previous analyses were performed under the assumption it was relatively low energy

Next time some dope spouts off about science, remind them " SCIENCE IS NOT MATHEMATICS."
