James Hansen : ‘This is the last chance’
6/23/2008
“We see a tipping point occurring right before our eyes,” Hansen told the AP before the luncheon. “The Arctic is the first tipping point and it’s occurring exactly the way we said it would.”
Hansen, echoing work by other scientists, said that in five to 10 years, the Arctic will be free of sea ice in the summer.

June 26, 2013
The alarming loss of sea ice which has grown worse each summer over the past several decades, has taken a sharp turn for the worse: this year the loss is right in the middle, the most resilient part of the ice cover. This could lead to a completely ice-free Arctic Ocean by September.

I wonder why Hansen lost the plot after 1988? Or did the NASA check and balance guys all retire. Good thing he never got into the Shuttle launch calculations.

Thank you.
Why did Hansen lost the plot after 1988? That is fairly easy to explain.
The USA signed the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change in 12/06/92 (ratified 21/03/94 )
The official UN Framework Convention on Climate Change redefines “Climate Change” Here is the official definition:
At this point the US bureaucracy went to work for the United Nations to implement their wishes no matter what the data said. In other words an international body determines what our laws will be and then our US bureaucracies will do what ever is necessary to see that those internationally agreed on changes become law.
GATT and the World Trade Organization provide an excellent example of how this works.
Under President Reagan (Yes a Republican) Dan Amstutz, VP of Cargill, wrote the draft Agreement on Agriculture (AoA) as USDA undersecretary for international affairs. Amstutz also wrote the “Freedom to Farm Bill” later known as Freedom to Fail that wiped out third world farmers, USA farmers, the US Strategic Grain Reserve and set-up the 2008 food crisis orchestrated by Goldman Sachs. Amstutz also worked for Goldman Sachs and was president of The North American Export Grain Association. (Grain Traders)
Ten years later in 1996, under Clinton, Amstutz’ work was put in place as the WTO complete with the AoA was ratified and the “Freedom to Farm Bill” was made in to law. A year later WITHOUT congressional approval the USDA and FDA trashed the US food safety system using hands on inspection and testing that had given the US ‘the safest food in the world’ for the International HACCP regulations. HACCP turned inspection over to the corporations and USDA and FDA inspectors no longer inspected anything but paperwork. Most of the US food testing labs were shutdown.
I graphed the CDC food borne illness data for the three years before and the three years after the introduction of HACCP. The incidence of illness doubled. The Propaganda arm of the internationalists jumped into action and twisted this news by pointing the finger, not at the corporations and bureaucrats who were the real villains but at independent farmers who were the target. The propaganda campaign worked and the “Food Safety Modernization Act” Co-sponsored by Richard Burr (R) was passed making US farmers answerable to the regulations written by the Ag Cartel within the WTO.
In all of this the USDA and FDA was working FOR international corporations, the UN and WTO and AGAINST the best interest of Americans. Stanley Painter, Chairman of the National Food Inspection Unions, stated this in his testimony at the congressional hearing on the Hallmark Dower Cows:
USDA – closing down testing labs from the State of Texas Ag department.

Steven / folks … could I request some help playing whack-a-mole with the alarmists over at a Bloomberg site?
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-09-16/bipartisan-pettiness-on-climate-change.html
All they do is refer to the consensus logical fallacy, heat hiding in the oceans to explain the lack of warming, etc. etc. etc.. It is not worth the time to argue with the blind being led by the blind.
If you really want to get their face red, demand an explanation for why the hot spot is missing. That is the main tenet of “greenhouse” theory.
That Bloomberg article is from September of 2013.

“An angry climate…”? This guy is a world class ‘tard, though about normal for a Sierra Clubber.
Arctic Ice Rapidly Growing. But only on the surface.
At the bottom in the depth it’s melting because of Man Made Global Warming!
Trust me! I am a “respected” scientist!
Would I tell porkies to you?
I came upon your blog by accident when researching something and I was flabbergasted by your claim that Arctic ice is “rapidly growing”. The only evidence you provide is a 17-day span in September! Well, OF COURSE the ice will be increasing during that period as the ice-melting season has come to an end and the ice-growing season has begun! Thus you’re looking at SEASONAL VARIATION, not a climatic trend. Are you really telling me that you don’t know the difference? That being the case, are you really in a position to make the comments you make about climate change?
I can’t fix stupid at your level.
The data shows a 60% increase in ice over last year. Get a brain.
It’s pretty amazing that you can’t even understand the graph that you yourself have posted. The graph only shows data points for 17 days in September. How does that indicate any changes from one year to another? Would you like to correct your mistake and try again? Or will you respond with more personal attacks?
Ray, I don’t have any patience for morons.

Thank you.
Clearly, you’re bluffing. You have no idea what the graph says and you’re doing your best to hide that fact. The x-axis data goes from 1-September through 17-September. There’s nothing on the graph that indicates a multi-year trend of ice increase. And yet you have the gall to call your blog “Real Science”? You need to act like an adult and stop pretending that you know what you’re talking about.
Interesting, too, that your like-minded followers didn’t pick up on the problem, either.
Ray, stop being a moron.
The graph shows exactly what I said it does. “Arctic ice growing rapidly” and that it got nowhere near the ice-free state predicted by the world’s leading experts for 2013. If you click on the link below the graph, it shows a 65% increase in ice area over the date of last year’s minimum.
Instead of making a fool out of yourself here, why don’t you go harass the other morons who predicted an ice-free Arctic in 2013.
The graph shows what happens EVERY YEAR during September. It’s not an indication of global cooling nor is it a refutation of global warming. In fact, the exact opposite happens 6 months later – as it does EVERY YEAR. Thus, it is merely seasonal variation. How the hell can you not see that when you proclaim your blog is “Real Science”?
The link below the graph is merely a raw data set, not a graph. Are you also admitting that you can’t tell the difference between graphs and data sets?
FYI, although I know I’m wasting my time, you can go to the National Snow and Ice Data Center at
http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/
to see the data graphed (Figure 3). But notice that the current ice increase is but one spike on an overall trend of ice decrease over time (since 1978). The curve is a saw-toothed curve composed of ups and downs, the latest increase being only the latest up-spike among many. And every uptick is followed by, on the average, greater down-spikes and that results in a trend toward less Arctic ice over time (the blue line).
So, no, the graph doesn’t say what you claim it says as it’s just 17 data points in one month of one year, not a multi-year trend. So you’re the fool here who can’t understand that the graph you’ve posted doesn’t say anything about global warming OR cooling. Stop pretending to know what you’re talking about. People like you just repeat what the conservative blogosphere dictates to you and you clearly have no idea what constitutes real science. But one thing is for sure: what they say about conservatives being anti-science is true – as you demonstrate every time you respond.
Are you completely mental?
Ice is rapidly growing and the highest in a decade.
http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/old_icecover.uk.php
You are proving once again that climate alarmists are the stupidest people on the planet.
You have almost completely ignored everything I’ve said as you presented an entirely different graph to support your beliefs, tacitly admitting that your original graph doesn’t make your point. And you didn’t go anywhere near the web site I provided you with, did you? If you had you’d have seen that the Arctic sea ice level that you think marks a recovery is the fifth lowest level since records began. It’s also “recovering” from the lowest level ever recorded in 2012. But again, this is just an uptick – of which there are many – that is superimposed on the overall trend that shows huge declines since records began.
Just go to the web site and see Figure 3. It won’t kill you to do that. You’re “recovery” is just one of many such upticks – always followed by downticks. The overall trend is clear as day. You can’t attempt to refute a trend by ignoring the whole graph in favor of just one data point!
Imagine what the graph you supplied in your latest post would look like if it included the rest of the data from Figure 3 instead of just the last decade. The curve for 2013 would be fifth from the bottom!
And, BTW, the issue up to this point has only been the areal extent of Arctic ice, not it’s volume. It turns out that ice volume is continuing to decrease so that there is actually less ice in the Arctic even with your “recovery”. That means that thick, multi-year ice is decreasing and that the total “recovery” is just thin, one-season ice that will melt easily and quickly next year.
And once again I have to note that your original graph makes no argument one way or another for or against global warming. Apparently, in your fever to make your point you neglected to consider about whether it made any sense – just as an obedient victim of the conservative blogosphere would be expected to. Someone versed in real science would know better,
You are complete moron and are now spam.
You sure do attract em Steve.
Evangelical climate alarmism must be tough to cure. Geez….it took me one day when I was 17 to realise the Catholic Church was a confidence scam. Albeit after 17 years of brainwashing by family and school.
I think this new religion is a three generational thing. Once the 20 something’s see that nothing is happening, they’ll turn on their elder climate scientists. Gonna be ugly.
Ray
My rule of thumb is dont argue with idiots as they will only drag you down to their level then beat you on experience 🙂
Steven you are completley and utterly wrong and have no idea what you are talking about you just cherry pick stats to suit your point and even that doesnt work you BUFOON!
Arctic Ice Extent is not cherry picking. It’s the alleged northern “canary” that was supposed to prove CAGW and has inconveniently failed. The southern canary is more than 2 standard deviations above average sea ice extent so it’s a double fail. Being reduced to writing insults after CAGW is proven to be a scam just shows how sad and misguided the alarmists are. Christian Science monitor is a safer place for you chappies. Toodle loo!
Several points: first, why begin at 1978? Was this because ice extent was unusually great at that time? I don’t know, but I do know that 1978 was about the height of the global cooling scare.
Second, whatever dates you choose, you will probably get a trend up or down, and if you choose to assume that this trend will continue indefinitely you will eventually come to a catastrophic result, proving nothing except that your assumption is absurd.
Third, you have to pay attention to the numbers at the left side of the graph; they don’t start at zero. By my calculation, if the trend line were to continue until all the ice is gone, that point would be reached early in the 23rd century, which is a long time after 2013, or even 2015.
To your first point: First, there was no global cooling scare. That’s a myth that has been thoroughly debunked. Second, the record since 1978 is the satellite record. If you want to see the record from before satellites (since 1953) go to:
http://nsidc.org/icelights/2011/01/31/arctic-sea-ice-before-satellites/
Your second point is absurd. The fact is that there IS a trend of decreasing Arctic sea ice. But where did I ever say that one should extend the trend indefinitely or that a catastrophic result should be expected? I simply argued that there is indeed a trend.
Your third point is really your second point, also wrong. I’m not arguing about all Arctic sea ice disappearing throughout the entire year, nor am I arguing about it disappearing in any given future September (the month for which the data is plotted on the graphs in question). My argument is simply that Arctic sea ice in September is in decline and that the trend is real.
Other than NASA, NOAA, NCAR, NSF, CRU, NAS, CIA and almost everyone else, no one was pushing the ice age scare.
http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/1970s-ice-age-scare/
Unfortunately, you’re mixing ideas. Back in the 1970s it was first realized that we are IN an ice age but currently in an interglacial period. It’s a fact that we’re headed for a new glacial period in the future. But this has nothing to do with human-caused climate change and nothing to do with atmospheric CO2.
As for those few scientists who thought that there was evidence of cooling going on back then, that was refuted and was never part of any consensus of climate scientists.

Thank you.
Ray is right and you are wrong steven, he’s not spamming
TO ANDY OZ
YES IT IS CHERRY PICKING DATA
It is not a recovery?? Look at the records from 1979 to 2013 it is not diffcicult to understand, it cleary shows the rapid decline in sea ice extent (the area it takes up) not only this but over the same time 80% of the volume of ice (how thick it is) has also dispappeared.
WHICH BIT OF THAT CONFUSES YOU?
ANDY OZ
Also you talk of insults can i JUST POINT YOU TO STEVENGOODRAD POSTS 🙂
He is your messiah after all so by your own judgement it ‘just shows how sad and misguided the DENIERS are’ 🙂
Just so you know im not an alarmist just someone who can undertnsad the facts given to me through maths and make my own descison based on interpretation.
Not as in your case ANDY which is by being brainwwashed by the OIL and GAS comapnies media engine who of course have our best interests at heart? IDIOT.
Arctic ice may pass the NSIDC 30 year mean in the next couple of weeks. Great wailing and gnashing of teeth will ensue from alarmists.
Dave,
Simple question. Please explain how CO2 caused an increase in the Antarctic sea ice of 2 million sq km more than average. NSIDC shows the ice extent to be 2 standard deviations above the mean. Is the Antarctic canary dead?
To Stevengoddard
Which bit of ‘ice reappears in the winter’ is confusing you? tahst not a recovery thats what happens in the winter when there is nmo sun for 6 months ice grows back.
It is not a recovery?? Look at records from 1979 to 2013 its not diffcicult to understand it cleary show the rapid decline in sea ice extent (the area it takes up) not only this but over the same time 80% of the volume of ice (how thick it is) has also dispappeared.
Only a completete fool would not be able to this a recovery would be ice extent and volume back to the 1979 average which will never happen!
The US is facing a record cold December, because all that hot air from the Arctic is coming down here.
TO STEVENGODDARD
Thats weather not climate!! It really isnt difficult STEVEN, Just google ice extent average from 1979 to 2013 and ice volumes for the same period .
It really is just basic maths a child could work it out 🙂
Just so you are awre as you are probably ameriacn the ‘world’ encomases more than just the USA they hide facts like these in books!!
Global warming means the globe as whole is getting warmer!!
Is September now Winter? I’m terribly confused by your imprecise language, Ray.
How did you get that out of what I said? September represents the lowest point in Arctic sea ice and sea ice grows as the fall and winter progress.
To Stark
I said that not Ray, just goes to show that DENIERS cant read or extarct facts 🙂
Where did anyone say sepetember is winter? again a DENIERS trait ‘just make shit up’
However just so you are aware SEPTEMBER is when the arctic starts to cool again!!!!!
Your confusion is probabally being caused by the fact that you are stupid!
You’re posting on an article from September which is about September ice & you’re complaining about it not being about something else & then you say that “ice reappears in winter”. I think you’re confused about when Winter is, Ray.
Your comment is silly and amounts to nothing more than an end-run around the entire argument. Thanks for pretending to play.
### TO STARK ###
Im not Ray? Thats twice you have made the same mistake is it because you are a retard??
Please learn to read and digest simple information provided by satatlite data from 1979 to 2013 please, im being serious a child could work it out it really is that simple the ice is metling away due to GLOBAL WARMING 🙂
Of course we all know that DENIERS know best, the best bit is when the Arctic has finally melted you will still say no it hasnt and when it grows in winter it will be yet another recovery, :-):-)
Your stupidity truely monumnetal 🙂

If you care to look into the issue instead of simply denying it you’ll see that the Arctic has been particularly stormy this year and that this has resulted in increased sea ice. So it wasn’t CO2 – it was weather. And nowhere does global warming theory say anything about an end to wintry weather in the Arctic.
More than two standard deviations above average is weather? That’s cool. So when the Arctic ice is more than two standard deviations LESS than normal that is also weather. Thanks for clearing that up for me, and confirming CO2 has nothing to do with ice melting or freezing.
TO ### Andy OZ ###
Stop trying to pretend you are clever as you just sound stpuid, you have no idea what you are talking about, it is very amuzing though, if i ever met you in real life i will mock you 🙂
Ad hominems standard response from alarmist fleas.
I can’t help it that you are known as shoelaces, Dave. Hopefully one day you’ll be able to see the light and open your mind.
Why would you even bring up the idea of ad hominem when so many posters on your side use such personal attacks regularly? Steven Goddard has called me stupid, moron and completely mental. So I guess it’s fair to say that you believe in double standards?
I apologize for insulting morons like that.
Dave and Ray still can’t explain why the Antarctic sea ice is more than 2 standard deviations greater than average. Come on! Okay I’ll give you a hint. It’s to do with really low temperatures. Or are you denying there is more sea ice than normal? I guess you’re ice deniers!
I have already responded to this.
What do standard deviation units have to do with it? Where’s the boundary in SD units below which you’ll agree that it’s indeed weather and not climate? Got none? I thought not. Yours is a phony argument.
I’ve got news for you: weather always varies more than climate varies so any measure of deviation for weather will always be greater than it is for climate. Thus you’re argument was dead before you even posted it.
CAGW is a myth the same as Thomas Crapper inventing the flush toilet. There is so much evidence that it is a myth and a massive financial scam that to defend it can only mean you’re in on the scam. I’m sad that you were not taught statistics in school as it might have explained the probability of you being born with a sociopathic tendency. Congratulations on receiving money from extortionate taxes on the poor and underprivileged. Must make you feel all warm inside!
And I’m supposed to take this kind of a response seriously? Is it any wonder that we can’t have any kind of dialog in this country when your side can do no more than to hurl insults and call names? Some of you guys really need to grow up. Well, good-bye, children. Good luck with your conspiracy theories and your spitting contests and your flaming posts and your complete, perhaps intentional, misunderstandings of the facts. You’ve shown me that nothing can get past a stubborn belief system that derives from an irrational political position.
### TO STEVENGODDARD ###
CHERRY PICKING INFORMATION AGAIN ARE WE.
THE BBC ARTCILE YOU ARE QUOTING STATES EARY 1980 THERE WAS 20,000 CUBIC km AND IN 2013 THERE WAS 9000 CUBIC km
A LOSS OF 11,000 CUBIC KM WHICH BIT OF THAT CONFUSED YOU??
A RECOVERY WOULD BE 20,001 CUBIC KM NOT DIFFICULT IS IT 🙂
BLESS, IS MATHS CONFUSING YOU LITTLE BABY 🙂

Thank you.
@Ray, sorry that I’m coming to this a little late. From your 15 Oct 2013 post, I went to http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/ to check out what you were clearly upset that @Stevengoddard was ignoring. Namely, a seasonal variation but not a trend. I just checked out your reference, and I have to say that I must not be able to see what you are seeing. Looks like Arctic ice extent is trending above last year’s extent. The graph at http://psc.apl.washington.edu/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/schweiger/ice_volume/Bpiomas_plot_daily_heff.2sst.png shows increase in thickness over that last few years.
The thing is GARY B
Stevenegoddard is trying to say that this is a sign of a recovery and that all is well and that in fact the GLOBE is not warming the ice is not melting and there nothing at wrong with this as it si all normal.
Seasonal changes are normal; however, over a 30 year period the trend is there to see the decline in ice extent and volume.
Also please note after every extreme ice loss there is always a rebound the follwoing years years but only back to the MEAN the MEAN of which is the decline curve.
Very BASIC maths and very easy to follow unless you are stupid!!
@Dave, no need to descend into ad hominem attacks.
No, Ray, learn to distinguish between your own bizarre fantasies, & what people have actually said.
No, child. I’m not Dave. You need to grow up or maybe find some website that caters to children.
And are you really so confused that you don’t realize that Steven Goddard is indeed saying that the sea ice in the Arctic is in recovery and that the globe is not warming? What is he saying, then? What are YOU saying? What the heck is your argument???
If you continue to like about things I did and didn’t say, you will be banned.
Are you joking? So you’re NOT saying that Arctic sea ice is in recovery??? But in the reference you linked to you say exactly that.
From: http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/2013/10/04/arctic-sea-ice-controlled-by-winter-winds/:
“The disaster for alarmists is that the winds have reversed and are pushing the ice towards the Pacific side, which is driving the massive recovery in the amount of Arctic sea ice – up 60% from last summer.”
If Arctic sea ice is not in recovery then what the point of your post? And for that matter, what is the point of this entire thread?
Go ahead and ban me if you’re afraid of being confronted with your own words.
I said that Arctic sea ice extent is up 60% from last summer. Do you believe that is incorrect? Or are you just being hysterical for no particular reason?
You wrote to me: “If you continue to like about things I did and didn’t say, you will be banned.” (I assume that you meant ‘lie’ and not ‘like’)
This was right after I said, “And are you really so confused that you don’t realize that Steven Goddard is indeed saying that the sea ice in the Arctic is in recovery and that the globe is not warming?”
That is what I responded to. I did not lie. I quoted you verbatim. In fact it was Stark DickFlussig who tried to correct me and implied that you didn’t say that. I corrected him.
I report simple facts here (like ice up from last year) and almost never make future projections. Alarmists see their religion threatened by the facts and go full Spanish Inquisition.
You have completely confused the issue. Again, the issue was that Stark Dickflussig said that you never claimed that Arctic sea ice was recovering.
But nevertheless, yes you did say that Arctic sea ice is in recovery. And I responded that it’s just one more year along a trend that overall is showing decreased sea ice over time. The saw-toothed graph of Figure 3 in my link shows us that we can expect ups and downs most of the time and that a single year of increased sea ice doesn’t alter the trend.
Yes, it’s trending above the last few years. I have not said otherwise. What I have said is that the overall pattern is a saw-toothed increase over time. IOW, not every year will show a decrease in September ice but that the trend is there as, *on the average*, it works out that each year has less ice than the year before. That’s what Figure 3 in the reference I gave tells you.
If you were on average in the Arctic right now, you would be on average freezing your ass off.
Of course I’d be freezing my ass off. It’s the Arctic. No one has ever said that the Arctic would cease to be cold.

Here’s what the article actually has to say:
“‘In previous summers, some of the [multi-year ice] migrated over to the Alaska and Siberia areas where it melted. But this past summer, it stayed in place because of a change in wind patterns. And so there’ll likely be more multi-year ice next year than there was this year,’ he told BBC News.”
So this article clearly doesn’t say what you think it says. What we have is just a change in wind patterns and it amounts to nothing more than short-term change superimposed upon the long-term trend of melting Arctic ice.
Also from the same article:
“‘It’s estimated that there were around 20,000 cu km of Arctic sea ice each October in the early 1980s, and so today’s minimum still ranks among the lowest of the past 30 years,’ he told BBC News.”
And yet you see this as a “recovery” or an argument against GW? Try reading the articles you link to next time.
Ray, you need to decide if you’re posting as “Dave” or “Ray”. Also, you need to learn to distinguish between things that people have said & things that people have not said. You have already claimed that September is part of Winter, so I guess you have no idea what you’re talking about. Perhaps if you can provide a link to a peer-reviewed paper that says that September is Winter, you can win this round, you idiot.
No, it doesn’t mean that at all, sorry. You’re just stupid.
That is just plain wacko. I’m not Dave and you have no reason to think I am. And I note that you’re still wallowing on a single point that doesn’t address this debate. Perhaps you find it too hard to understand that when the ice-melting season ends the ice-growing season begins?
Regarding your second point (although calling it a point may be too generous), even Steven Goddard agrees with me – we just disagree on the direction of the change and its consequences. He posted a graphic showing wind pattern changes. Did you miss that? Yep, I guess so.
LOU the only wanker here is you little man! I have not seen it posted on this thread so go away you little man!
I have asked Steven direct his views on global warming so as not to get embroiled in semantics he declined, and chose only to insult which seems to be the norm on this site.

JohnB:
You have posted the same link to the fairy tale at Dotearth a number of times. It was worthless the first time and it is still worthless trash now. If you had looked through the past threads on this site you would have found the information you are asking about. I would link more valid historical records but you seem unable to comprehend real science when it is presented in a logical manner.
You can go back to your fantasy world and listen to your Chicken Little leaders telling you how fast the sky is falling. I will continue to live in the real world and continue to observe real weather variations such as those I have experienced over the last 60+ years.
Ah bless you are still in denial, my comprehension is far superior to yours I deal in facts I have no ego on the matter little man.
I don’t care your views mean nothing?
Almost no one on the planet cares about your ancient views.
I guess that is why more people are questioning the CAGW movement and the fairy tales told by the IPCC!
No they are not only idiots and slack jawed yokels are; however, no one cars what you think, no one takes you seriously, you are just a side show, Steven why have you chnaged user name where is the lttile girl gone from your picture 🙂
I cant see how you can argue with this??
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgiMBxaL19M
🙂
You are correct! No sane person would try to argue with a fairy tale! The ice may have decline from point a to point b and there are similar time periods when the ice has expanded in that region. However it means little or nothing over the long run, because the ice conditions have varied since ice first formed in the region of the globe.
That cartoon don’t mean Squat!
and this happened when in a short space of time? We are talking 30 years here not a gradual change over millennium!!
What you are doing is smoke an mirrors ice is declining at a rate never seen before.
And yes it does mean squat they are facts not shit you have just made up!!
Show your facts or remain a liar!!
Total Bull Shit! You are proving you are completely ignorant about historical weather patterns.
Oh and no one cares what fools like miked1947, stevengoddard, lou and the famous latitude say or think you are irrelevant, your views or ideas mean nothing, no one listens to you deniers any more, that’s why you are reduced to back water websites spouting your rubbish to like minded simpletons .
Really no one cares!
Mike you spouted some rubbish a few post up about 4 million years 🙂 the thing is change never happened over such a short period of time and if you think extreme weather events are not happening more often then you are more stupid than I thought.
Like is aid though no one cares what you people think, you people are well just in denial.
I hope you all live in areas that get affected first and I hope you all have children.
children that will one day challenge you and tell you that you are fools.
One day your children will tell you Dad your wrong, Dad you are stupid, that day will happen and when happens you will remember you were told.
🙂
JohnB:
What a load of Crap! Weather is always changing and weather patterns are in a constant state of change. My Great grand children come to me to get correct answers when they are told lies by their teachers and idiots like you .They have learned how to recognize members of the Chicken Little Brigade.
Yes that’s correct you are learning well done weather changes it always has and always will from one year to the next this will always happen.
It is entirely different to GLOBAL warming. wow its like I have educated someone.
ROFLMAO!
I expect the next serious Global Warming in about 100K years. Right after the Glacial Maximum the globe has been sliding into since the Holocene Optimum. Sure there will be minor warming periods like the Minoan warm period, Roman Warm Period and Medieval Warm warm period. The Current Warm Period is most likely over, but there is an off side chance there will be another warm bump. However the sad issue is we do not know because the temperature data is been so corrupted to promote the idea of some warming that actually did not happen. We have and are experiencing similar weather conditions as were experienced during the 1800s. that little blip between 1979 and 1998 was not even comparable to the warming during the first part of the century.
And you believe the fairy tales.
MIKED1947, Ha great grand children when they get to 25, as I am now they will laugh at you.
Your children and your grand children probably already mock you? for your old mans views, how old are you like 60.
I hope you live to see your children eyes, the eyes that wont lie when your spouting your rubbish.
THEY WILL JUDGE YOU.
ROFLMAO!
I guess that is why they still come to me for advise!
Yes children are easily led 🙂
They will grow up and make there own minds based on facts, then they will JUDGE you, it will happen i hope it crushes you as they disaggree, unless you are saying you are barinwashing them?
Should i call someone are they in danger?
Just to put this into context: I drive a BMW 5 Series, I have 3 TV’s in my house 42″ and 2 x 50″ my girlfriend drives a 4 x 4, I don’t believe in god. I rarely recycle as I cant be bothered, I eat meat. I’m not green, my house is way to big for my needs.
I don’t hug trees and I think more roads should be built, I don’t like paying taxes and if my bills go up or some polar bears die then fu.ck the polar bears.
But it does not change the facts the GLOBE is warming 🙂
So go fuck yourselves dickheads, no one cares what you think even hypocritical cunts like me don’t care what you think, Global warming is happening end of story.
You have what like 10 people who post on this site seriously NO ONE CARES!!!
you have no sway the majority have spoken you have been left wanting, your time has ended you have no relevance.
AND ONE DAY YOUR CHILDREN WILL JUDGE YOU.
LOL
John B:
Worldwide sea ice is near record highs. How do you explain that?
Ha record highs you are so wrong it is comical. What record highs are these, the last minimum sea extent we have just passed was the 6th lowest on record!!
Post your source for this lie or remain liar.
I am talking about worldwide sea ice, not just Arctic ice. Antarctic sea ice is much above normal, so the two hemispheres combined are at or near record levels. You can see numerous posts on this site that clearly document that fact.
If you are atlking about worldwide ice , that being all the ice in the world then it is not a record high levels, it is at record low levels., glaiciers, ice shelvees are all metling, in the warmth!
Either way it does not make any differwence the GLOBE is still warming, but warming way too fast, wih more and more people being born and more cars being used and more cattle being rasied to support them the little dents we try and make are futile now.
We have to learn to cope with its consequences.
Thankfully the USA will be one of the most affected countires, ENJOY 🙂
It is a well established fact that Antarctic ice is much above normal and worldwide ice is at or near record levels. If you check this blog going back to late December and early January you will see that it is very well documented. Saying the sky is falling is simply not true. If you follow this blog for any length of time with an open mind, you will see the gloom and doom scenarios are simply not playing out as advertised and scientifically documenting the evidence does not make you a tool of Big Oil.
No it is not stop lying. It well documneted by lack jawed yokels, no one else.
Please read below.

Wow! That proves Mark Serreze cannot do math. Who knew?
Global Sea Ice highest on record in January proves Global Warming??
Someone has been eating too much mercury in their sashimi and turned into a mad hatter. I feel sorry for all the poor people paying carbon taxes with the money finding its way into the hands of outright climate charlatans.
ANDY OZ HAHAHAHA you are an idiot seriously. Please learn to reads fucktard!!
From WUWT: http://wattsupwiththat.com/reference-pages/sea-ice-page/
Global Sea Ice is definitely NOT at the highest ever recorded: http://www.climate4you.com/images/NSIDC%20GlobalArcticAntarctic%20SeaIceArea.gif
ANDY, it says nothing of the sort please learn to read before posting rubbish!
Global SEA ICE is not at its highest on record that is just a lie, you are the mad hatters, people actual just ignore or laugh at you, your views are irrelevant.
The Antarctic and the Arctic are two different animals one is in land the other is sea ice, to start with.
And the one on the sea is the one that is melting away fastest, so how you can even state that Global SEA ice is at its highest I have no idea, do you have eyes can you not see???
not to mention the Greenland ice shelf that is melting faster than ever!!!
The Antarctic gaining some ice no where near covers the ice loss GLOBALLY that’s why it is called GLOBAL warming and not::::
local area warming or where you live warming.
🙂
JohnB:
The only answer to your claims is Bull$hit! You do not know WTF you are talking about.
Why is bull$hit? mike1947 makes perfect sense to me in fact not difficult to follow why are you so entrenched in your views? looks like he touched a nerve and you don’t like the fact you have realised you are wrong!! and global warming is happening. why Deniers get so obsessed about ice i don’t know when satellite temperature reading s prove the globe is warming!!!!
Which bit of this video confuses you??

Hey Steve remember this? even climate deniers of the highest order are embarrassed of you?

And this one you have no credibility at all DO YOU? If even your fellow deniers think you are a twat.
The more I read about you I actually feel sorry for you, and you followers on here are just you aren’t they? that’s how pathetic you are you have to post on your own blog!!
http://www.skepticalscience.com/Watts-Up-With-That-ignorance-regarding-Antarctic-sea-ice.html
You have no scientific basis for your lies, so why dot you just admit that you are wrong it takes a real man to admit this, I for one would respect you if could become man enough to say:
I Steven GODDARD In light of the overwhelming evidence I have realised I have no scientific basis for my past views and I was wrong.
🙂 🙂 🙂
Congrats! You are the new official village idiot.
http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/2014/01/24/a-kook-classic/
WOW Goddard post some of his on shit to prove his shit is right shocker what a dick you are?
Your are an old man who know nothing, you are a failure nothing changes this.
DO you want me to post the crayon drawing you did and post it funny as fuck that was? Was reading about it earlier people actually take the piss out of you.
Oh fuck I’ve dropped goodard, what the goddard was that LOL you are a joke.
I cant wait till the really press get there hands on you!!
Please send more stories. You are a valuable researcher.
Steven and his little girls!!!!

LOL.
Hi Mike1947 again thanks for the complementary insult about my history knowledge! Why post on a site if you can only insult when someone is debating with you? Of course because Deniers are all right and us WAK JOBS! are all wrong and you are an expert so your word is gospel, sorry didn’t mean to offend your sensitive views, we could just wait 20 year come back and see how it all pans out if you can still type by then 🙂
There are lots of graphs / video on this link I could point too, that show ACCELERATED global warming let alone many more graphs and stats from satellites.
And to compare 65 million years of “””warming””” to the last 100 years of accelerated warming is a very fragile premise.
hi mike1947 as per previous question?
I said the man made made effects would make those natural warm periods even warmer as in if whatever caused the so called “”medieval warm period” happened now the man made effects would make that warm period even warmer!!
I asked if you understood that?
” why is global sea ice such an important factor”
……….
LONG version – ALBEDO (from engineers)
At today’s sea ice extents, the “edge” of the Arctic sea is a tiny ring ~ latitude 78 -82 north in mid-September. The “edge” of Antarctic’s sea ice minimum is also a “ring” – but that ring is about latitude 66 south. This is closer to the equator, so much more energy is reflected from the Antarctic sea ice. At maximum extents, the “edge” Arctic sea ice is at its closest point to the equator at latitude 72 north, not even as close to the equator as the minimum Antarctic sea ice! At its maximum, Antarctic sea ice extents is much, much higher at 59.2 to 59.0 latitude. Closer to the equator than even the most southern tip of Greenland!
A second comment from Cook
I asked about his information and got
I posted all this to refute Dave’s comment above:
“just goes to show that DENIERS cant read or extarct facts”
Most of the ‘Deniers’ I have read are geologists, engineers, chemists, physicists…. and unlike Dave can actually read a graph.
David says: @ March 28, 2014 at 8:15 pm
So you agree by proxy that extended Antarctic sea ice in the winter means nothing and that its extension is a direct result of global warming.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
No the Antarrctic Sea Ice is NOT caused by ‘GoreBull Warming’
The following is a paper that provides a prediction as to how much cooling to expect in response to the abrupt solar magnetic cycle 24 change.
Changes in the sun change the amount of EUV and UV as much as 7% according to NASA.
Ozone is formed and destroyed by solar UV (again see NASA/NOAA)
(The north magnetic pole has split and is moving at a right good clip BTW)
The polar vortex depends on the Brewer-Dobson circulation. When it is strong the polar vortex is well-defined, the polar air stays put, and we get warmer. When it is weak, polar air heads southward over northern continental land masses. But there are no large land masses adjacent to antarctica so southern polar air tends to remain isolated. You can look up the Brewer-Dobson circulation yourself. (The history behind it is rather interesting.)
The quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) is a quasi-periodic oscillation of the equatorial zonal wind between easterlies and westerlies in the tropical stratosphere.
Hi Gail and other old people
Just in case you a racist as well a link from your home service

As above very very easy to follow even for old red neck toothless simpletons like you.
Hi Gail and old people
An american link for you in case you a re racist!

You couldn’t make it up. 🙂 🙂 🙂
TO GAIL COMBS, please stop posting unnecessarily long post from scientists who are mocked globally, or papers from decades ago no one is interested in your old data which was wrong then and still wrong now, you foolish old woman.

If you have the aptitude to watch this from beginning to end it also explains a lot, in basic terms so it is not to difficult to understand.
Hope it helps explain why this thread and its silly opening posts are just that, silly?

I cant understand how anyone can come to the conclusions Deniers do!
But it seems like you enjoy yourselves so go for it, you may as well just make any shit up! Blame aliens or say the is a cold war going on still 🙂 , the ‘alarmists’ have hired NASA to carry warmth off the planet i heat pods 🙂 🙂 🙂
Deniers if you are going to make shit up and have fun at least use your imagination 🙂
