When it comes to evidence of global warming, who are you going to believe, your professors or the facts?
While it is common these days for politicians, journalists, and other observers to say the climate is warming faster than expected, the data show that, over the past two decades, warming has actually slowed down to a pace well below most model projections, economist Ross McKitrick writes in a study published by the Canadian Fraser Institute last October. Depending on the data set used, there has been no statistically significant temperature change for the past 15 to 20 years.
Yet atmospheric GHG [Green House Gas] levels have increased rapidly over this interval, and there is now a widening discrepancy between most climate model projections and observed temperatures. McKitrick is a senior fellow at the Fraser Institute as well as a professor at the University of Guelph.
While a pause in warming is not itself inconsistent with a continuing long term trend, there is no precedent for such a large and continuing gap between models and observations, McKitrick writes. Some climatologists have argued that within another few years at most, if the pause continues, it will lead inescapably to the conclusion that climate models are oversensitive to GHGs.
The Global Warming/Cooling ?
Depending on the data set used,”
I love that one. You know which one the global warming crowd is going to take.
Despite their loud protestations to the contrary, people who hold secular religious beliefs (e.g., devout members of the cult of global warming) are impervious to facts, data, logic and science. To them, unless it is in full agreement with their secular dogma, things such as facts, data, science and logic constitute blasphemy — there is no reasoning involved in their thinking and position.
you can see that when they have to cancel global warming protests on snow days.
"Are you "gonna" believe me or that lying ass thermometer and lying ass satellites, and lying ass polar bears, and lying ass space images of arctic and antarctic ice? I would like to speak more but I must leave early in my G4 Gulfstream Jet before the blizzard hits and I am unable to get back to California to my Mansions and SUVs. Please contact me at my website for the purchase of discounted carbon credits.

For the the last 50 years governments have funded trillions $ of dollars in fake global warming research to create a massive hoax called global warming. Then after 100 years of tweaking laws government comes up with their final solution for solving the world's problems drum roll..... banning lightbulbs: that government did this shows that government is a cancer that must be minimized to bare essentials and constitutional limits.
The federal government banned lightbulbs in the USA and the news media hid this from the people:

Sorry, but the media was on the other side of the equation 38 years ago.
every government grant is for what to do about global warming not whether it exists or not
Sorry, but the media was on the other side of the equation 40 years ago.
All this "global warming" hoopla is akin to the magicians slight of hand distractions while he does something to fool the audience...like in this case, destroying the Constitution and "Fundamentally changing America". We watch one hand while the other, Obama and his Marxists and One Worlders deftly strip away the 200 plus years of freedom that the founding fathers tried to give us. Abracadabra...poof!
I haven't, but I will now. Thanks!
It doesn’t affect me. I bought cases and cases of incandescents a couple of years ago. I will never pay $20 or more for a light bulb. Unless they can change the size of the socket on mine and everyone else’s light fixtures.
In true science when the predictions of the theory fail to match the observed data, then the theory is rejected. However, the man caused CO2 driven theory of global warming is rooted in politics not science so it cannot be rejected. Finally people are realizing that all the predictions of global warming have not come true especially as we experience another round of polar vortexes.
On the rocks? Is liberalism on the rocks? Socialism? How about political correctness? Is that on the rocks too? C’mon. No chance.
Oh they’ve been manufacturing the global warming hoax for at least 100 years with some intermittent ice age scares:

Another few years? How many is "a few" to a Man Made Global Warming Religion Follower? The abstract condition that is "time" has confounded the multitude of human hating fanatics that are members of this religion for some time now. To them, time is a dynamic and flexible entity that often needs to be refined, tuned, transformed and re-created for the purpose of specific data manipulation.
I figure, in this instance, they are setting "a few" at 100 years or so. But not until the next ice age is in full swing with glaciers building in the UP.
So true. Big government killed over 100 million people last century. And here there are again trying to kill another 100 million. They never learn. Never repent.
