The Sierra Club guy either a) is a dolt, or b) perjured himself when he said “the pause” referenced by Cruz is a period of little temperature increase during the 1940s. I’m pretty sure it’s the latter, but it would be impossible to prove. He’d have to be incredibly ignorant not to know about “Mann’s trick to hide the decline in global temperatures” and the UAH satellite data that conclusively demonstrate no warming since 1998.
They kept good records in the 40’s. Best weather data? A Farmer’s Almanac. Great forecast also! Better than the idiots on TV.
True story...local weatherman TV idiot in Knoxville, TN last Saturday (wife went to the TN/ARK game to watch our Hogs beat the Vols at home) said the days of soaking rain were due to “a low pressure system and nothing from hurricane Joaquin”. She laughed like crazy.
Oh no, this giant counterclock rotation going at 130 mph+ just 200-250 miles away to the east has NOTHING to do with the pressure system and rain pattern. Yeah, right.
Two guys started the Sierra Club, one died and I saw an interview with the other. He was asked why he resigned and said that he stayed until the commies took over. He was as matter of fact as he could be, it was like he thought everyone knew the commies ran it now.
