Texas is vulnerable to warming climate

HOUSTON CHRONICLE | July 10, 2011

As you sit by the pool and sweat this summer, one book you should be reading isThe Impact of Global Warming on Texas (University of Texas Press, June 2011, second edition). This book, written by a group of Texas academics, is a sober analysis of our state’s vulnerability to climate change — and the things we can do about it.

It is a particularly appropriate read as we suffer through the hellish summer of 2011. While it is unknown exactly how much human activities are contributing to this summer’s unpleasant weather, one lesson from the book is clear: Get used to it. The weather of the 21st century will be very much like the hot and dry weather of 2011. Giving extra credibility to this forecast is the fact that the weather extremes that we are presently experiencing were predicted in the first edition in 1995.

As is normally the case, the prominent climate scientist had absolutely no clue what he was talking about.

A century ago, scientists understood that drought and flood occurred in regular cycles. That was before they were paid as propagandists.

Satellites which monitor the global temperature were launched almost 36 years ago, and there has been no warming for the majority of that period.

But it is worse than it seems. Most of the apparent warming prior to 1996 was due to settling of volcanic dust.

In 1990, climate scientists knew that global warming was nonsense and no use for fund raising, so they hired a few people with zero integrity to build a hockey stick.

Eighty years ago, severe drought covered most of the US, but now covers less than 5% of the country. Experts say that drought is getting worse due to global warming, because their job depends on them lying.

In 1923, leading scientists warned that a lack of CO2 would lead Earth into another ice age

The world is falling apart, and the President is focused on battling a 0.0004 mole fraction gas, which is an essential building block of life.

Our enemies must be full of glee at the fact that we have a complete moron in the White House.

Alarmists have already moved their snake oil show to Phoenix, claiming that it never flooded there before.

I lived in Scottsdale in 1980. and had to commute across the Salt River to Tempe. The 1980 flood put more water in the Salt River than was in the Mississippi River, and washed out every bridge except for the Mill Avenue Bridge. It was a two hour commute each way.

This was the 1993 flood

This was the 1966 flood

If a climate expert says something, you can be 97% sure it isn’t true.
