At some point -- probably next year -- these people will claim that the 16 hottest years on record have all occurred since 2010.
And they will be shocked when we don't believe them.
there was a run on blankets due to freezing cold weather this last month
nobody is gonna listen to this “global over-heating” stuff when they’re wearing four sweaters and cuddled up under an electric blanket with four regular blankets on top of that
BS Flag goes here:
“Since records began keeping in 1880”.
That is so dumb. Planet Earth is billions of years old, and they are going by three hundred of years of “records”.
Like a flea sitting on the ear of a stampeding elephant and saying: “Oh no, look at all the dust I’m raising! I have to do something about this!”
Lies, damn lies and phony climate data
From that article:
Among the errors of the complex climate models that the simple model exposes are the following
Once errors like these are corrected, the most likely global warming in response to a doubling of CO2 concentration is not 3.3 Cº but 1 Cº or less. Even if all available fossil fuels were burned, less than 2.2 C° warming would result.
- The assumption that temperature feedbacks would double or triple direct manmade greenhouse warming is the largest error made by the complex climate models. Feedbacks may well reduce warming, not amplify it.
- The Bode system-gain equation models mutual amplification of feedbacks in electronic circuits, but, when complex models erroneously apply it to the climate on the IPCCs false assumption of strongly net-amplifying feedbacks, it greatly over-predicts global warming. They are using the wrong equation.
- Modellers have failed to cut their central estimate of global warming in line with a new, lower feedback estimate from the IPCC. They still predict 3.3 C° of warming per CO2 doubling, when on this ground alone they should only be predicting 2.2 C° about half from direct warming and half from amplifying feedbacks.
- Though the complex models say there is 0.6 C° manmade warming in the pipeline even if we stop emitting greenhouse gases, the simple model confirmed by almost two decades without any significant global warming shows there is no committed but unrealized manmade warming still to come.
- There is no scientific justification for the IPCCs extreme RCP 8.5 global warming scenario that predicts up to 12 Cº global warming as a result of our industrial emissions of greenhouse gases.

they lie!!!
Southern California hasn’t had a summer in at least 8 years.
What BS... Earth’s HOTTEST YEAR? I was talking to my brother in Maine and it didn’t go past 95° this summer. A normal summer has about 6 days 95+°.
January 19, 1977, snow was in Tampa, Florida...yesterday (writing on the 20th of January), it was cool...if 2014 was the hottest wiyldnt it be 95° today? (Going to be around 75 today).
Right, The Earth is four billion years old and since the last year was the supposedly the hottest since 1880, some 134 years ago, It wasn’t, we are all certain the World is ending.
Who said that the last two hundred years is the optimal climate for the Earth anyway?
Well, in my little slice of central Idaho, 2014 was the warmest year on record since I started keeping track in 2008. I have a personal weather station on a mountain top at 6000’. There are no parking lots or city streets to affect the temperature, just forest and open country for miles. From 2008 to 2014 the average temperatures were: 36.2, 39.1, 39.1, 38.1, 40.5, 39.9, 40.9. You can look at the data if you like, just Google KIDGRANG2. The same did not hold true in my back yard, however. Both 2008 and 2012 were warmer than 2014. We often have inversions in the winter and it will be 10 degrees colder at 3000’ than at 6000’. That, of course, isn’t enough data to mean anything, but it’s fun to look at.
And, FWIW, I’m all in favor of global warming. If you look at the long term climate of the earth, it’s either warming or cooling. I’d a whole lot rather deal with warming...
About six years ago, the area of California I live in, experienced one of the mildest summers I've seen in the 45 years I've lived here. Early morning fog seemed to stick around most of the spring and summer months, up until around July.
There were a few normal spells, but other than that it was a downright impossible year for sun-tans unless you could spend your day at the beach, the only place you can get a tan even on a cool day.
Did the climate hoax folks address that? No. They prattled on about other matters, as if this didn't occur. These folks are not on the up and up.
Any thinking person can pick their premises apart
California remains mired in the grip of a three-year drought, its worst in centuries.
Isn't that interesting? Centuries ago it was hotter than it is now. That's right, it was hotter without automobiles, massive industry, and probably three fourths of the cows we have today. How could that be? All I know is that right here in their own propaganda is their own undoing.
Global warming took place long before us, and it will take place long after us. Global cooling took place long before us, and it will also take place after us.
The Northeast is still rebuilding from Hurricane Sandy. And that was just one of the climate-related disasters that cost this country an estimated $139 billion in damages in 2012 alone...
And guess what, earthquakes come along and cost us hundreds of billions too. Strangely enough, they haven't found a way to blame that on us yet. I'm sure they're working on it.
As for hurricane Sandy, it wasn't the first to hit up north. It has happened before. The only reason there was so much damage, is because there are more people and property, and those properties cost more to replace in today's dollars. Big whoop.
As of this moment, there is still no definitive proof man has contributed to global warming.
Glaceiers used to come all the way down through Yosemite Valley. What did man do to cause those to melt?
Oh that's right, he did nothing at all to influence it.
In the spin-laden political environment we all exist within, there are lies, there are damn lies, and there are "statistics", and the hysterical global warming propagandists are trying to convince us (with statistics, no less) that "the sky is falling", by citing "facts" which don't even fall outside the measurement's margin of error.
Thus, the claim they breathlessly make has no scientific validity.
It truly takes a statist to rely on such statistics...
Heh.
Hey, remember all those hurricanes we were gonna get because Al Gore said so?
The revolving door.
Yah, a half century ago. They can't even put one in orbit now. We're supposed to believe anything technical from a group of government bureaucrats who's primary goal is Muslim outreach?
If you’re worried that much and honestly believe man is causing it CNN, then practice what you tell us to do...shut off your office lights, employees don’t drive vehicles, no backup generators(I don’t care how important you think you are), no air conditioning in any of your buildings, minimal heat in all your buildings, no corporate jets, all employees eat accordingly to minimize methane release, bare minimal electricity consumption, and I’m sure there’s quite a bit more you can do to set an example for us.
Dear Rhea Suh,
You are either a total fool, or a liar.
I’ll give you credit for one thing - you don’t mess around - you put the lie right in the title!
“Earth’s hottest year?” Total LIE!
From 1880 until the present is a tiny slice of time in a 4.5 billion-year old planet. We now have technology that can show us the temperature of the earth before we were able to start recording it.
Every chart I have seen shows that over the total period of time, the earth is COOLING!
Of course, you already know this. That’s why you stopped calling it ‘global warming’ and started calling it ‘climate change’
So - you are not a fool. You are a liar trying to get the government to give you our money.
And you have been successful in that regard. It’s actually quite a brilliant scam: Get taxpayers to give you boatloads of money because the weather is changing.
