and with all these facts Global warming is widely accepted now and not even questioned. The left know that they can lie about ANYTHING and get away with it due to a moronic general public.

Especially now that we’re encouraging people via tax policy to burn food.

One that I presented it to fell back on “Well 1200 scientists and the IPCC can’t be wrong!”

Reality means nothing to these people.

So will the left shut up? No. Because there are political points to be gained in crying “global warming”.

Come summer, the announcement will be made that, despite the extra snowstorms around the world, this winter is the 2nd or 3rd warmest on record.

“The debate on climate change is over. The problem is accepted as fact by experts everywhere” - Al Gore

Al Gore is the tailor telling everyone that the Emperor's clothes are gorgeous when in fact, said Emperor has NO clothes.

Rattle on Al, you're sounding more ignorant by the hour...the climate changes are called S-E-A-S-O-N-S.

Actually, it's "global warming" in summer when it's hot, and "climate change" in winter when it's cold.

Anyway, the prospect of global cooling is not good news for the various secular messiahs.

Enviorwhakos wont even pay attention. What they will say over time it is heating. However, over many centuries theer is a cycle that does not prove anything. For something so erratic they sure have some balls to claim it as fact.

One year does not an era make, however.

True, but watch the sun my friend, watch the sun.

If it stays as quiet for the next 6-12 months or so as it has been the last couple of months, that is another Maunder Minimum, which means we will be heading into another Little Ice Age like the one we had around 300 years ago.

And to be honest, we're due for it timewise.

Total time-scale inaccuracy. The Maunder Minimum is considered to be 1645-1715. The Sun has been at the minimum end (rather than the minimum beginning) of the current solar cycle, hence low sunspot numbers. There have been predictions of a possible low-sunspot-number cycle following the next one, based on the "solar conveyor belt" speed. To be a sunspot minimum, it would have to be low sunspot numbers over a couple of solar cycles, particularly notable at the maximum stage of the solar cycle.

The Dalton Minimum was 40 years long, and the Sporer was 100-150 years long. So what happens over the next year does not indicate a minimum of this type. What happens over the next 6-20 years might.

Radiocarbon data for solar activity

... it is not “global warming” anymore, it is “climate change.”

Can't we just go back to calling it the weather? Every day is climate change. Just this week, my climate changed from rain to clear.

All I got in response was an “I disagree with this.”

The cult continues.

Thank you, patriciaruth! I’m watching solar activity off and on. It seems to have been a fairly good indicator (or correlation, at least) so far. Are you at a high elevation, too? I am. Family and I enjoy the dry air and don’t mind weather changes. Winter was a little late at over 8,000 feet (below zero Fahrenheit temps arriving around the first part of December instead of the middle of November). Now it’s about normal here but more snow than the past few years.

I don’t envy people who live in tropical places, having had more than enough of that.
