This is an excellent non-consensual science paper on the myth of global warming.

We need to be up on this stuff as the Donald begins dismantling the EPA.

Article is from 2014. The warming since that article was written was from El Nino

Without counting El Ninos there is a small trend over the satellite record. And the flattening is still there as Moncton would probably point out with current data. A better person to have around to speak about this is Judy Curry, a lukewarmer.

JC message to the alarmed scientist/advocates:

Get over it, your side lost. Changes of Presidential administrations occur every 4 or 8 years, often with changes in political parties.

Get busy and shore up your scientific arguments; I suspect that argument from consensus won’t sway many minds in the Trump administration.

Overt activism and climate policy advocacy by climate scientists will not help your ’cause’; leave such advocacy to the environmental groups.

Behave like a scientist, and don’t build elaborate conspiracy theories based on vague conflicting signals from the Trump administration. Stop embarrassing yourselves; wait for the evidence.

No, no, no!

The author clearly doesn’t understand.

If it gets warmer, it’s proof of global warming.

If it gets colder, it’s proof of global warming.

And if nothing changes, well, then.... it’s proof of global warming.

Now give us a fat government grant to study this serious problem before we all dieeeeee!

We’re experiencing a nice shot of global warming here in Austin this morning...temp of 23F with 13F windchill at 7am. The high temp yesterday was 75.

The high in Denver yesterday was 3, breaking a record that had stood for over a hundred years. Maybe Al Gore was there for a global warming conference.

With all that polar vortex cold reaching deep into our homes and wallets extracting as much heat and wealth as the market will bear you’d think the Church of Anthropogenic Global Warming would, in a word (or acronym) just STFU. But no. They’re still at it. England’s Lord Monckton has met and rebuked them at every step, as have several tens of thousands of climate scientists. Rest easy, there’s NOTHING humans are doing to the planet, the atmosphere, “Gaia” (I actually LIKE that name, ‘cause there’s a GUY in there) to alter its climate or weather. Imagine climate as a train with the combined mass of the solar system running on tracks laid down billions of years ago guided through the physics and interactions between our planets, moon and sun’s composition and phases and all these self-important “global warmingistas” are running alongside it saying THEY are going to change its course. One more time: there AIN’T any “man-made global warming or climate change.” Now go turn down your thermostat. You’ll thank me when the extra money will help cover summer’s electric bills.

End Ordovician, 444 million years ago, 86% of species lost.

Late Devonian, 375 million years ago, 75% of species lost.

End Permian, 251 million years ago, 96% of species lost.

End Triassic, 200 million years ago, 80% of species lost.

End Cretaceous, 66 million years ago, 76% of all species lost.

YIKES!

Thank God the SUN as nothing to do with Global Warming or Warming of the planet in any way, otherwise the upcoming “Maunder Minimum” might ave an impact on the Planet.

Figure 1 . The least - squares linear - regression trend on the RSS satellite monthly global mean surface temperature anomaly dataset shows no globa l warming for 18 years 2 month s since October 1996. The hiatus period of 1 8 years 2 month s , or 21 8 months, is the farthest back one can go in the RSS satellite temperature record and still show a sub - zero trend.

No warming for only 18 years? Depends on what you look at. Average temperature? Just remember that the average of 51 and 49 is 50 and the average of 99 and 1 is also 50. You might as well consider the significance of the average telephone number in New York. The real information is in the Maximum and Minimum temperatures.

Here's what you get if you go to NOAA's Climate at a Glance and specify Max Temp June - September and the trend since 1930 for the Contiguous United States:

There are 20 states where the cooling trend for summer afternoons extends all the way back to the 19th century. Here's a map showing where the cool down has occurred:

What this means is that because the average temperature has indeed increased, it's the Minimum Temperatures that have gone up. Indeed that's what the IPCC reports tell us. The warming will be at night in the winter and in the higher latitudes. In other words the climate has become milder. When our media talking heads tell us about extreme weather becoming the new normal they will have to begin telling us about extreme mildness.

Is there any evidence of the Pacific ocean rising? I live near Humboldt Bay and there is hysteria with the libs about flooding of this and that and their demand we spend billions on relocating utilities etc...
