As Hong Kong shivers through its second-longest cold spell since 1885, scientists point to global warming to explain the abnormal cold weather phenomenon worldwide.

There we have it. AGW has become unfalsifiable. Weather has become climate, and climate has become weather. No matter what the weather/climate does, it`s the fault of man-made global warming and human sin. The colder it gets, the hotter it will get, and the hotter it gets, the colder it will become. Any and every weather anamoly can now be blamed on global warming.

These global warming druids never give up, do they? Like someone stated on this forum last week, they will not stop until they are stopped.

In other words global warming is about warming when it’s warming and cooling when it’s cooling and grants when grants are being given out.

I agree. It is the perfect scientific theory because it cannot be falsified and dissenters can be burned at the academic stake. It is also a perfect mechanism for Marxism. To the left, GW is the second coming of Marxism and a cry of alarm similar to a war. GW will provide the basis to shred the constitution.

Polar researcher Rebecca Lee Lok-sze obviously did not get or did not read the memo. “Global warming” is obsolete. Newspeak is “climate change”. Fine her 10 carbon credits and make her say 20 “Hail! Algores.”

As for “polar researcher” Lok-Sze, she has a certificate in commercial design;

Good point. It is like a religion to those idiots. And Gore is the Great Pumpkin leading the charge.

Many are hack scientist, if they don’t scream GW, no grants, no paycheck. Can you say “May I supersize that for you sir”

Nope. It`s never too late.

You are going to be hearing less and less from these people about global warming and more and more about man-caused “climate change”. The whole point is to convince enough people that we are affecting the climate, allowing them to pass laws to the point that our laws will be micromanaged.

But we will still get 500 channels to appease us.

Libs O’the world are so darned predictable. Too bad we conservatives are dumb enough to let them get away with it. What amazes me is the apparent lack of knowledge of the theory of EM wave dispersion/absorption that is extant in the warming community. This is the basis of their CO2 nonsense, and few - if any, could answer some simple question on the subject correctly. Perhaps these folks weren’t the A students in electromagnetics.

It’s so easy to be a Liberal. You don’t have to think. You don’t have to understand. All you have to do is memorize your liberal catechism (”All weather is caused by global warming”, etc.) and get very, very angry if anyone disagrees with you.
