Temperatures have been cooling this century at a rate which will wipe out all claimed 20th century warming, but the IPCC needs money and they decided to just make up some fake numbers, so that they can continue to steal from taxpayers.
The panel shifted to a wider range for the potential warming, dropping the plausible low end to 2.7 degrees, after a wave of recent studies saying higher estimates were unlikely. But those studies are contested, and scientists at Stockholm are likely to debate whether to stick with that language.
Climate Panel Cites Near Certainty on Warming – NYTimes.com
What if you kept making doomsday predictions and no one was left in the forest to hear them? Would they still be as apocalyptic?
No one cares about any of these predictions anymore, no need to get upset. The same birds chirping the same song. They won’t get carbon taxes so there’s nowhere to go there. The Earth isn’t actually warming at all so there’s nowhere to go there. It’s over. This is all just a trick and pony show now.
Carbon tax or not, it’s a trick and pony show Obama plans to use to bankrupt the U.S. coal industry through Executive Branch regulatory powers. THAT is not over.
Skeptics of the AGW scam made a tactical error in identifying those who were doing exactly what they were instructed to do:
Claim increasing global temperatures, regardless of the measurements.
The Head of the UN’s IPCC and the army of climate scientists exposed in Nov 2009 by Climategate emails and documents are doing quite well today.

Look, it warmed today from 70 degrees at 6 AM to 90 degrees by 2 PM, that’s 20 degrees in 8 hours. That means by this time tomorrow it will be 150 degrees!!! If you don’t agree with me, you are just cherry-picking data and are anti-science!
“The panel shifted to a wider range for the potential warming, dropping the plausible low end to 2.7 degrees, after a wave of recent studies saying higher estimates were unlikely. But those studies are contested…”
The actual plausible low end of the recent set of studies is around 1-1.5C. The most likely scenario is now around 2C. I’m speculating that they are bumping up the numbers because their climate models are predicting nearly twice that (compared with the empirical/observational studies).
The obvious problem with a ‘most likely’ scenario of 2C is that benefits are assumed for global warming up to 2C, before they turn negative with temperature rises above that.
Now that we have satellite data, and it is getting harder for NASA and NOAA to cheat, the most likely scenario is no warming.
Any scenario is possible, including cooling due to natural variability factors. But CO2 still warms the atmosphere, and CO2 levels are increasing, even if its warming effects have been grossly exaggerated. A most likely scenario is, yes, over the next 100 years the planet will warm slightly, and the world will benefit slightly from that warming.
A more likely scenario is that the world will cool substantially. The interglacial is coming to an end.
You’re cherry picking:
