In the 70s, we were all going to freeze. Now, we’ll fry. I don’t buy it.

“Climate change is a liberal cult, not science.”

Not to mention a conspiracy to confiscate billions, if not trillions, of dollars from a population they will dominate and manipulate by way of “settled science”.

(The scu&bags will not stop.)

IMHO

The “Science” is “settled” for those “Scientists” who are getting the big bux for saying so!

I guess it was unsettled in 1977...?

The Ice Age is still coming. 39 years is less than a heartbeat for climate cycles.

We’re due for an Ice Age. I hope it doesn’t happen in my life time or yours but it is coming regardless.

Uh, nobody thinks that “climate change” is not a real thing. I mean, we went through an ice age and everything, clearly climate changes.

But it just is so easy to say “climate change” and hope nobody notices that you are trying to claim that man is so powerful he can seriously impact the temperature of the world more than, say, a good dose of sunspots.

The climate may very well be changing. The cause is definitely NOT defined or settled.

The mass media loves anthropogenic climate change due to methane farts of cattle, cars and other ne’er do wells. The UN and other money grasping groups wants to have us fund the results of this method of climate change by taxing us for every breath containing carbon we exhale no matter what entity is exhaling.

A smaller group, the Maunder Minimum group, which has been gathering data on the earth’s rotation, the earth’s rotation relative to the sun, the earth’s rotation relative to the center of the Milky Way...all of which seem to line up rather nicely with our ice ages. And speaking of that, the earth stopped warming up some 20 or so years ago and is gradually cooling. At least there seems to be a good data set relative to that point

In sum it may well be the earth is cooling : http://www.forbes.com/forbes/welcome/?toURL=http://www.forbes.com/sites/peterferrara/2012/05/31/sorry-global-warming-alarmists-the-earth-is-cooling

and http://isthereglobalcooling.com/

Even though in some places it is warming like under an arctic ocean ice shelf...maybe the Larson c ice shelf. And here in western PA our winters may be warming...or cooling or....

Yeah, settled science based on faked results from East Anglia. I’ll never forget when the story of that fraud came to light. Yet you see so many idiots like people at CBS insisting it’s real. True insanity...

“Settled science” to liberals is actually unsettled gobbly gook to sane, rational Americans.

As Rush Limbaugh says, (paraphrased), one has to have a real high opinion of one’s self to think or believe that he or she is having an impact on the climate of the world.

Global warming: bah, humbug!

LIEberals, after all, are LIARS!

And, apparently, they are well paid, to boot!

Contradicting settled science, Donald Trump says "nobody really knows" on climate change

Any fool can say or write the words, "settled science."
The only support for arbitrary and self-serving statement boils down to "computer simulations," all of which, 100% of them, have proven wrong over the last 30 years

The opposition, labeled "deniers," have been placed in the absurd position of proving a negative on demand.

A court process under the Federal Rules of Evidence has never been convened, and is avoided by the Global Cooling/Global Warming/Climate Change alarmists, like vampires to garlic, or mirrors...

until thatscientific confrontation and resolution takes place, and the phrase "Climate Science" can be determined to be not only a contradiction in terms, but the biggest pseudoscience fraud of the latter 20th Century.

The stakes are gigantic in terms both wasted trillions of taxpayer dollars, as well as surrendered individual freedom. More and more facets of our lives are impacted negatively in order to "save mother" earth. The entire sham is simply another way to control citizens (and get rich being re-elected) to the point of controlling the tiniest actions of their lives.

That all has to end sometime.

NASA’s website on climate change, for example, notes that approximately 97 percent of publishing climate scientists agree that human activities are very likely responsible for rising temperatures

As does Obama's own web site.

What they never reveal is how many actual "publishing climate scientists" that represents.

If memory serves me right, it's around 89; carefully and arbitrarily chosen out of around 4000...

Long on BS, short on methodology

Global Warming or Climate Change is a scam. The sun is the boss, not Al Gore. Gore does not know what a sun spot is or how sun spots are related to climate. One interesting fact is that most record high temperatures for each of the 50 States were set decades ago. Most predate WWII. If the earth was getting warmer then these records should be broken, especially with so many of the thermometers being located in urban heat islands. Urban heat islands have greatly grown since WWII, yet the old records stand.
