The EPA continues to push their big CO2 lie
Their claims are at best misleading, and most are straight up lies.
There has been no change in Northern Hemisphere snow cover for 35 years.
The area of sea ice on Earth is nearly the same as 35 years ago. There was a drop from 2005 to 2012, but it has since “recovered.”
The temperature of Earth’s troposphere (where the greenhouse effect occurs) has hardly changed for 25 years.
Sea level has been rising for 20,000 years – most of that time much faster than now. Sea level is 400 feet higher than it was when the first Americans walked across the Bering Strait from Russia.
Life evolved and thrived with CO2 at much higher levels than now. If CO2 caused any of the other effects the EPA claimed (ocean acidity, extreme weather, health, etc.) the earth and oceans would be barren.
Gina McCarthy and the EPA are using tax dollars to support the biggest fraud in history.
The section on sea level says:
Estimates of future sea level rise vary for different regions, but global sea level for the next century is expected to rise at a greater rate than during the past 50 years.
The satellite record for the last 22 years says the rate is not increasing. This web page
Why has an acceleration of sea level rise not been observed during the altimeter era?

is a few years old now but remains true.
Colorado University’s Sea Level Research Group
http://sealevel.colorado.edu/
has a data page,
http://sealevel.colorado.edu/files/2015_rel4/sl_ns_global.txt
It’s easy to show that
From 1992.9595 to 2004.2531 the rate is 3.6 mm/yr
From 2004.2531 to 2015.5739 the rate is 3.2 mm/yr
The obvious question from your EPA link is to ask when this increase in the rate is going to begin to happen since for the last 22 years if anything it has declined.
And this of course brings us back to the lies about the significant loss of Ice mass from Greenland and the Antarctic. No sea level rise rate increase! No significant mass ice loss from terrestrial sources as predicted.
B I N G O !
Table 10.7 from the IPCC’s AR4 report
https://www.ipcc.ch/publications_and_data/ar4/wg1/en/ch10s10-6-5.html
tells us that in all scenarios Antarctica contributes negatively to sea level rise..
Well spotted steve
Love it, Steve.. use the satellite sea level data against them..
sweeeet ! 🙂
While NASA, EPA ect waste trillions on climatologists, Putin says its a Fraud and the Russians are way way ahead on the space race. Your only and probably last chance to recover is to vote for Cruz, Carson or Trump. The only ones with a reasonable chance are Cruz and Carson my take.
or Rubio LOL
The acidic ocean myth is one of their biggest lies, and the most obvious attempt to play on the fears of the ignorant.
“the fears of the ignorant”
where’s Marty or cFool when you need them 😉 ?
This is what the lame stream media meant by getting government out of science.

WORSE:
EPA Used 10-Year Old Children in Illegal Diesel Exhaust Experiments

EPA’s illegal human experiments breaks Nuremberg Code on human experimentation

Our Government is despicable.
“Increase Earth’s average temperature
Influence the patterns and amounts of precipitation
Reduce ice and snow cover, as well as permafrost
Raise sea level
Increase the acidity of the oceans
Increase the frequency, intensity, and/or duration of extreme events
Shift ecosystem characteristics
Increase threats to human health”
None of these things are happening, except for Sea Level rise, which is now tapering off.
Thus, Increasing greenhouse gas concentrations (CO2) have no effect and can be safely ignored.
Reblogged this on Climatism and commented:
How many more metrics of proof does this theory need to falsify the hypothesis that man-made carbon dioxide causes dangerous warming?! Nothing has happened over the past 25 years, to suggest any warming effect, at all, despite record CO2 emissions over the same period.
Unbelievable.
