Georgen Taylor is the (former) Oregon State Climatologist and now manages the Oregon Climate Service at Oregon State University.

He's become more out-spoken since his announced retirement in June, and his entrance into the private sector

Sorry no URL yet, had to type in the whole thing!!

Global Warming has been abandoned. Say ‘air pollution,’ and include carbon this time as a greenhouse gas among other pollutants.

[JennysCool]

Wow! Thanks for the effort.

The guy sounds like a level-headed scientist, not a moonbat-influenced huckster looking for research grants.

I hope voices like his become the norm. With the Oscar and Nobel given to Al Gore, I have a feeling there will be an even bigger campaign to stuff “global warming” down our throats, for no other reason than to convince the masses that Al Gore was right about something.

Thanks for pinging the "NON-BELIEVERS!!

Our lib Governor pretty much showed George the door last year. Who you going to believe a politician or a Climotologist?/sheesh

Excuses, excuses...What do they need 200 years? 100? 12?

How ‘bout global warming is only as warm as the caca of which it consists?

[Soliton]

This winter ranked as the 54th coolest on record at 0.2 degrees above normal

Winter isn't over. How can anyone make this statement?

I'm seeing more and more of that. The new mantra seems to be, "even if we are wrong about global warming, we'll have a 'cleaner world' " (if we spend a gazillion dollars and regulate industries out of business). Pretty alarming.

even Oregon State can't change the vernal equinox.

China has had severe blizzards; according to0 some reports, they flattened about 10 percent of the country's forests.

My B.S. detector is quivering.

A couple of decades does not prove anything either when one considers the Earth’s timeline. When one looks at a temp graph it generally appears like the teeth of a mako shark. Warming and cooling has happened so many times over this planet’s existence that it’s truly amazing that anyone who has a sense of pride in their work would jump so unquestioningly in favor of anthropogenic warming and proposed means of curtailing it.

Alright, would you believe 9 percent?!/s

Not to woory as soon as the summer temps start to hit the upper nineties and lowed hundreds the warmists will be screaming their mantra again and will demand our lawyers .... ooops .... I mean politicians do something NOW! to stop it. I predict more of our food in our fuel.

One year not enough to prove global warming

It is, too!!
THE DEBATE IS OVER!
You're just a Glo-bull Warming^tm Denier! You probably deny the Holocaust ever happened, too!

[Wiseghy]

It will be interesting to see if a cool period now ensues due to issues with this solar cycle.

If it lasts a few years, it will make the global warming argument even more fantastic, as experts attempt to explain the cooling data.

Man, you hang out with some UGLY women!/LOL

“Winter isn’t over. How can anyone make this statement?”

Who knows, people will say anything. I’ve heard that [measurement of time] was the [warmest|coolest] (whateversuits your beliefs) since [any year that makes the above plausible].

They are evolving rapidly. Must be the Internet. Conservatives need to pay attention a little closer or risk being out of date by ten minutes and therefore irrelevant.
