Were DOOOOOOMMED!
Yikes! One degree! Eeek!
Quick, under the desk, and don't forget the bourbon and cigarettes!
Nice thing about predicting something 50 years off, you can demand action and not be around to be accountable for being way, way off.
Thank goodness. The Great Lakes were a frozen glacier 10,000 years ago.
Let me be the first to say it: Fush's Bault.
Yesterday it was 89 degrees here. Today it's suppose to be 92. We're doomed.
If only these guys would lose their jobs when their predictions turn out to be utterly and completely wrong...
ok, well, i guess im dead.
The midieval warm period was as warm if not warmer than it is today. That was just 800 years ago.

January 30, 2006 Hansen Revisited
"... We've been getting a bunch of hits from people searching on James Hansen since the New York Times and Washington Post have both run articles in which Hansen claimed he was being censored by the Administration.

From the Inhofe speech on the Senate floor from 9/26/06.
The 60 Minutes segment made no mention of Hansens partisan ties to former Democrat Vice President Al Gore or Hansens receiving of a grant of a quarter of a million dollars from the left-wing Heinz Foundation run by Teresa Heinz Kerry. There was also no mention of Hansens subsequent endorsement of her husband John Kerry for President in 2004. http://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/dai_complete.pdf
60 Minutes also did not inform viewers that Hansen appeared to concede in a 2003 issue of Natural Science that the use of extreme scenarios" to dramatize climate change may have been appropriate at one time to drive the public's attention to the issue. http://naturalscience.com/ns/articles/01-16/ns_jeh6.html.
Hansen is the Trofim Lysenko of climatology.
If liberals are worried about a 1 degree temperature rise, maybe they should help us keep terrorists from getting nukes.
hahahah, ONE DEGREE and we are done for?? Better stop with the hot air then, you blathering faux-scientists. Better shut down the Senate, too. Stopping Teddy alone could help a LOT.
Earthquakes, volcanoes
Cats and Dogs living together
MASS HYSTERIA ....
The temperature changes by more than one degree every hour in most places on the planet. If anti-business political groups weren't paying scientists lots of money to take all these temperature measurements and extrapolate them into a model that gives the output that is desired politically, who would even notice an average increase of a degree?
Well, we are near the top temperatures of an interglacial period, according to the Antarctic ice core studies. Which means that very soon, relatively speaking, the problem will likely be plummeting temperatures as Earth goes into another glacial period. Bad news, that, for Northern Europe in particular.
Hmmmm. I would speculate this guy enjoys more than six degrees of separation from sanity...
