Eleven Degrees Global Warming And Global Cooling

NRDC says that temperatures will warm eleven degrees by the year 2100

With global warming projected to raise North America’s average temperatures another 4°F -11°F this century, according to the U.S. Global Change Research Program, excessive heat events are expected to increase in frequency

Eleven must be sort of a magic number for eco whackjobs, because in 1970 they forecast eleven degrees cooling by the year 2000. The forecast was identical, except the polarity was reversed.

“The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”

• Kenneth Watt, Ecologist

How did environmentalists get it so wrong on Earth Day 1970?

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don’t do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she’s ten feet tall
And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you’re going to fall
Tell ’em a hookah smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call
Call Alice
When she was just small

When men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you’ve just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving slow
Go ask Alice
I think she’ll know

When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen’s “off with her head!”
Remember what the doormouse said;
“Feed YOUR HEAD…
Feed your head”

    I seem to remember the number eleven has some significance in the Occult. So maybe its a voodoo, witchcraft thing.

    It’s ‘Voodoo Science’ afterall.

      When it comes to spin, saying an uneven number imparts authenticity and authority. If they had predicted 10 degrees then it sounds a bit rounded off, but saying 11 degrees or 9 degrees implies accuracy and implies that some research work actually went into the conclusion. The public does not understand that using uneven numbers to sell an idea or product is the oldest trick in the book. Journalists use it all the time.

    That is one heck of a prediction. Are those dudes sick or on drugs? There is no real data to support that. Just more computer models with pre-programmed results to suit themselves. The real truth is we all will be very lucky to escape an ice age. CO2 causes very little climate warming. Rather, it might even speed up convection and result in cooling.
