So, I find myself sitting around a patio table next Independence Day sipping on the perfect mimosa with some friends and a couple of folks I haven’t met before. One of the new acquaintances brings up the subject of “climate change.” I know from the term used that this one is probably a sorta believer but not a hard-core, unshakable advocate; were that so, he would have used the latest, hippest, most with-it name-change term “climate disruption.” Now it’s time for my Favorite Global Warmism Question #1:

I ask them “How thick, on average, is the land ice on Antarctica and how fast is it disappearing?” The reality is people do not know the numerator nor the denominator and the denominator is frequently missing in the scare stories.
Alternatively, I ask Americans, “What fraction of an inch is 3mm? Followed by “How fast are the Oceans rising?”

The answers are readily available in the latest IPCC AR5 WG1 report.

Why hasn’t there been a tsunami of articles written by legitimate scientists who purportedly accept the validity of Scientific Method pointing out exactly what you have so eloquently described? Bureaucrats legislating science is possibly the most insane concept known to man.
