Yeah, by skeptics. This is news? Tell me again, why is the stratosphere cooling off? (There are two reasons.) Why is the lower troposphere warming up at basically the same rate as the surface temperature record? What... D'Aleo, Coleman, and Chiefio didn't mention these things? I wonder why not.
I dont know what brings so many things to light in the past week.
Herd mentality.
Tell me this: are the phenological indicators of spring in the Northern Hemisphere happening earlier in the calendar year (viewed statistically, of course) or not?
Likewise, are the phenological indicators of winter also occurring later in the calendar year (viewed statistically, of course), or not?
Take your time answering this question. Look up references, discussions, blog postings, whatever. Tell me what you determine.
Then tell me what it means.
Cold inflicted major toll on fish in Florida
Severe cold freezes livestock to death in Mongolia
The one thing we do know now is that ape metrics are literally worthless.
Which side of the issue had the herd running mindlessly?
The Climate alarmists are coming out earlier and earlier each year with their predictions of record hurricanes and that we are in the warmest year in history.
But we shall see what is happening because 2010 is shaping up to be a big El Nino year and has been predicted by British Scientists to be the hottest year in history.
But all this horse manure aside warming (or cooling) temperatures doesn't mean that change is bad or that mankind is responsible.
It’s not that simple.
Whats the percentage of manmade CO2 placed into the atmosphere per year?
