Three years ago the Gruniad announced that drought was the new normal for the UK
Drought may be new norm for UK, says environment secretary | Environment | The Guardian
Last year they announced too much rain is the new normal for the UK.
Whatever the current weather is, it is a deadly permanent trend for these geniuses.
Yes I remember it well. UKMO said that the year would be exceptionally dry and that the UK needed to start water rationing there and then (march-april). The government did what polis do, created a committee of idiots (inc UKMO ) who then proclaimed a year of drought and that they would prepare a drought order within a few weeks.
2 weeks later it started raining and didn’t stop for the rest of that year. No-one said a thing. Not one person said oops sorry we got that wrong. Not one, a$$oles.
“Not one person said oops sorry we got that wrong.”
They have shown themselves to be incapable of admitting to being wrong.
Seemingly the least gracious or humble group of people to have ever lived, if anything, they react with anger when their dire predictions do not verify and one tries to get an acknowledgment.
You know what really galls me? they have the affrontary to appear on the BBC, European and US news media to announce that they were right but the weather got it wrong.
%$&()*%^ weather refuses to follow the impeccably accurate and expensive, cutting edge, peer reviewed, internationally best practiced, sophisticated, UN approved, comprehensive, complex GCM’s. Now we’ve got to censor it like we do the skeptics so we’ll be changing those rainfall totals according to the settled science.
The Guardian will no doubt have an answer for why all the rain is coming down. I think they will try to convince their readers that the rain they are experiencing now is much dryer than rain experienced from years past. Some pseudo scientist will no doubt concoct a study showing how much dryer the current water is based on tree rings and gullible readers will hold demonstrations and demand that water dryness be the guiding principle in future water protection laws.
The scary part of all that is what we see as obvious sarcasm the Climateers embrace as policy.
It is getting harder and harder to not get really angry about the incredible lies and seeming cognitive dissonance of the warmistas.
I do not know how to feel about my intelligent and highly educated friends who buy into the whole spiel, but I find that it is getting more difficult to remain civil when discussing it with them.
So many have bought into it with such conviction, both scientists and laypeople, that I cannot see how they will ever be able to see or admit the truth, even if we have years of cooling.
I have converted all of my family and friends to reality, and even a second cousin who was majoring in an environmental degree. She has since changed majors.
How did you manage to do that?
Facts. Plus they know my extensive background in the Earth Sciences.
I have not gotten much feedback, but I may have planted seeds of doubt in some. I wish I was more persuasive. Were there any specific facts that you found were particularly useful?
But for people who think that all skeptics are either paid off by oil money, or are merely cranks, logic and factual information seem useless.
It is really quite simple, if your peers have critical thinking skills. For starters, we should expect warming since the LIA, and then show them Steve’s many wonderful posts on data tampering. If they still do not get it, then they are not thinkers.
I’ve been trying to do the same thing in france but they are completely taken in by the PR. I’ve even pointed out the realities of 60% green taxes on their electricity bils, failing crops, expensive car taxes and they still tell me I’m wrong. I show them officiel data which demostrates clearly that I’m right and still they tell me I don’t know cos I’m zee english.
Their latest thing is to howl about storms in the Pacific blowing down palm front huts over there. End of the world!!!! The UN is investigating and claiming this is due to global warming and we need more taxes on people being pounded by blizzards to save people living on beaches in hot climates.
Weather: It’s the new normal.
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
This “Mark Svoboda” showed up at another website today, and I am really hoping it is this “Mark Svoboda”…

But God is able to tear it down. Anytime man builds the tower of Babel God will destroy it. Is climate change a tower of Babel?

No, The trillion dollar Climate Change Industry is a bloodsucking leach on humanity, it just needs to be squashed.
Defund it.
Still no reply from Mr Svoboda. If it is the climatologist at UNL, I have already sourced his published funding (WOW!). And now I am curious about what his board of regents would think of his mockery of Christianity, especially on a skeptic website that threatens his bread and butter.
Can you say ‘bigot’, or ‘conflict of interest’, or ‘ethics clause’?
