Real Climate Science

This tweet appears to be satire, but isn’t.

This tweet is a classic example of the mental disorder of progressives.

Both traffic deaths and gun deaths are declining, and The Economist finds a way to turn it into a negative

You would think that writers at The Economist would have some basic English skills. Gun deaths did not pass vehicle deaths. The correct way to describe the trend is “traffic deaths fell below gun deaths”

The word pass implies acceleration.

I went to the wrong pub last night. Last time I watched the Ravens there, this happened.

Climate activists believe that schoolchildren should be murdered by their teachers, to protect them from global warming

Except for three hours last Monday, I have been in continuous sub-freezing weather since December 27 in Colorado, New Mexico and Maryland. Including -24F in Fort Collins on New Year’s Eve.

NOAA and NASA will both announce this month that 2014 was the hottest year ever. These claims are absurd, and based on intentional deception.

The biggest problem is that they are ignoring the most accurate data sets, which come from satellites and show that 2014 was nowhere near as warm as several other years.

This discrepancy alone should prevent them from making these claims. But there are many other problems. The amount of sea ice on Earth has been persistently above normal, and Antarctic sea ice area has been at record highs

This indicates cold temperatures at high latitudes, where NASA and NOAA have little or no coverage. This excess sea ice reflects sunlight back into space, and cools the planet.

But it gets worse. Autumn Northern Hemisphere snow extent was at a record high. This indicates cold air at low latitudes, and further reflects sunlight back into space, providing more cooling feedback.

Winter snow cover was also well above average, indicating cold air at low latitudes and additional cooling of the planet.

NASA has massively and repeatedly altered their own published data, to cool the past and warm the present. The animation below show their published 1981 surface temperatures in black, and subsequent 1999 and 2014 versions in red. This is consistent with an increase in propaganda, but not consistent with an increase in temperature.

None of these things are consistent with “hottest year ever.” NASA has known for decades that satellite data is more accurate, and their current willful ignorance of their own satellite temperatures, indicates that they are engaged in propaganda, not science.

After the most extensive autumn snow cover on record, December snow cover also continued its 60 year rise.  This is caused by Arctic air pushing further south than it used to.

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries!  Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the  Prophet rule or live.  A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and  refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity.  The fact that in Mohammedan  law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

– Winston Churchill  1899

Last year, 58% of the US was below normal temperature.

So far this year, 82% of the US is below normal temperature.

Government experts say that it is the hottest year ever.
