Nice graphic. Information rich.
“Most reporters don’t understand numbers either.”
If they did, they’d have majored in something substantial.
It’s only necessary to understand one number: zero.
There is no global warming. It’s a massive hoax invented by scientists looking to milk the system.
It’s a little known fact that newspapers are written for the 13-year old reading level....Hmmm, they must do that for a reason...
Most of their readers ascribe to the Common Core math. So, yeah.
If they fudge the numbers to give the impression that Hillary has a 98% chance of trouncing Trump in the general election, they’re fudging the global warming numbers too. The media lies, global warming is a scam, and that’s all there is to know.
Actually yes it has. Man-made CO2 has a different profile of isotopes.
A lot (half? don't remember) of the CO2 in the air is man-made. That's not disputed.
But that CO2 is not causing significant warming. Also: there is no, repeat no chance of runaway warming. The IPCC's feedback model is hopelessly wrong.
Also: the current warm period was not caused by CO2. It was as warm or warmer during the Medieval Warm Period, the Roman Warm period and the Minoan Warm period.
And in any case: if we could find a way of making it warmer we should certainly try to do so. We are teetering on the edge of a new (natural) glaciation period which would s l o w l y crush America under a mile of ice.
Also: we should try to create more CO2. It's literally plant food. Over geological time plants have optimised to 1000 ppm of CO2, or about 10%. We are a long way short of that.
Creating more CO2 is a simple way to 'green the earth' and dramatically improve harvests.
The only number that matters—anyone who believes anything they read in the New York Times has an IQ below room temperature.
“CO2 levels in the past were over 800 ppm=- today they are around 400 ppm- life survived at 800 parts per million-”
I’ve seen charts with 1800.
You have to be dumb to read the NYT.

Wind chill factor gets new formula (”numbers have been warmed up”)
August 21, 2001
EXCERPT
Under the old system, an air temperature of 20 degrees Fahrenheit with a 15-mph wind speed would result in a wind chill of 5 degrees below zero, according to the weather service.
Under the same conditions, the new index would show an 11-degree increase in the wind chill factor: 6 degrees above zero.
“We’re trying to ... generate a public education campaign, and we urge our users out there to take this seriously even though the numbers have been warmed up,” said Mark Tew, who heads the weather service project as chairman of the Joint Action Group on Temperature Indices.

In the fall of 2000, the Office of the Federal Coordinator for Meteorological Services and Supporting Research (OFCM) formed a group consisting of several Federal agencies, MSC, the academic community (Indiana University-Purdue University in Indianapolis (IUPUI), University of Delaware and University of Missouri), and the International Society of Biometeorology to evaluate and improve the wind chill formula. The group, chaired by the NWS, is called the Joint Action Group for temperature Indices (JAG/TI). JAG/TI’s goal is to upgrade and standardize the index for temperature extremes internationally (e.g. Windchill Index).
Feds Throw Millions At Grants They Have No Idea Will Work
FAA Awards $33.7 Million in Environmental Grants to Airports
And on and on and on..
We understand the numbers, and the motivations, all too well.
sorry- that is what I meant- not 800- good catch-
Some state it was even higher- 5000 ppm
“Can you imagine the tremendous “acidification of oceans”? Yet there surely was plenty of life in the oceans.
And the temperatures surely were not 5 or 20 times higher. Because in that case around the equator they would have exceeded the boiling point of water. The temperatures were just 3°C higher than now “
From that site- life survived- nothing boiled to death- life flourished-
I am also certain he doesn’t understand them !
