New Study Blames 10-year Lull In Global Warming On China Coal Use, Air Pollution
Washington Post blogs ^ | July 5, 2011 | Andrew Freedman

A new study published this week offering a fresh take on what may have driven a temporary, 10-year slowdown in global warming reinforces the scientific hypothesis that human activities are contributing to long-term global warming... **snip**

...But the new study, by American and Finnish researchers, says the answer lies mainly in the quickening pace of coal consumption in Asia, particularly in China, and the air pollution that is causing... **snip**

You can't make this stuff up...oh wait, yes you can. The Warmists are twisting themselves into knots trying to keep their scam alive.

No shi’ite! I know they want it both ways in terms of weather as an indicator of climate change, but come on! I don’t know what’s more sad; that they present this BS as serious science or that people actually believe them.

The sun is doing a good job at handling global warming, like it has always done. I keep wondering how much Carbon gas these wildfires are putting into the atmosphere, and wondering if we can expect sudden, rapid, violent, irreversible, catastrophic climate change within the next few days. If not, why not? This has to be equal to years of Americans enjoying energy.

Is that “lull” the one those of us who know how to interpret data have been pointing at for the last few years...the same “lull” that global warming experts pooh-poohed?

Or is this a different “lull”.

Gads, I’ve had fun with my lib friends (none of which have the slightest clue about anything associated with metrology - not meterology...look it up, libtards, the physics of EM absorption, Boltzman curves, etc)...watching their “gurus” make total Obamas out of themselves.

Definition: Make a total Obama of one’s self - (phrase) To demonstrate that one has literally no education or logical background in any subject they purport to “know), resulting in them being judged as complete cretins qualified only for high political office.

"Does this mean we should start building coal plants like gangbusters? ;-)"

There's no need for the wink emoticon -- a lot of warmists actually want to do something similar.

“Blames,” huh? That choice of words is very telling. It shows that the author WANTS global warming, probably because it is an excuse to implement socialism. Ergo, no global warming is a problem, and he needs something on which to “blame” that problem...

Heck, it could go a hundred years and they'd still call it "temporary"

Everything in God's creation is temporary; only the time scales vary.

"what may have driven a temporary, 10-year slowdown in global warming"

MAY HAVE (as in: "might" have, etc., etc.) is the operative term there.

It is NOT "EVIDENCE", it is A theory.

Okay, somebody needs to get their story straight, and they need to get the memo out to everybody so they’re on the same page with their talking points!

I share your confusion. Over the weekend, one of the cable channels ran a marathon of “The Twilight Zone.” I somehow missed the one on global warming.

Scientists cause mass lying and fraud on a global scale.
