SIGNIFIGANT RISE IN SEA LEVEL NOW SEEMS CERTAIN

MANY scientists are so sure that the sea level will rise visibly in the coming decades that they are advising planners to adopt new strategies now. A predicted rise in sea level of one foot within the next 30 to 40 years will drive much of the Atlantic and Gulf shoreline inward by a hundred feet and some of it by more than a thousand feet

Is there no way to end this denial of the one true CO2 religion?

Being a progressive means just making stuff up, in order to scare other equally stupid people.

Sea level in the San Francisco Bay is lower now than 70 years ago.

There is absolutely no basis for the San Francisco Examiner claim. Progressives live in a fantasy world of endless lies.

100 degree temperatures used to be fairly common in the US, but they rarely happen any more outside of the desert southwest.

August 17 Arctic sea ice area is the highest since 2004.

But it is worse than it seems. Arctic data is cleverly cut off at the 1979 peak, but the 1990 IPCC report showed that there was much less ice in 1974 than in 1979.

So I overlaid the current data on the 1990 IPCC graph, and it turns out that ice coverage now is similar to 1974.

Reports from 1974 also indicate that there was 12% increase from 1971 to 1974.

Another Ice Age?
Monday, Jun 24, 1974

Climatologist George J. Kukla of Columbia University’s Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory and his wife Helena analyzed satellite weather data for the Northern Hemisphere, they found that the area of the ice and snow cover had suddenly increased by 12% in 1971 and the increase has persisted ever since.

So I drew another circle approximating 1971 conditions. It is possible that there is more ice coverage now than in 1971.

This is just a very rough comparison, as it is comparing extent vs. area. But it shows the cyclical nature of Arctic ice, as opposed to the mindless linear trends published by NSIDC.

Eighty years ago, about half of the US was in extreme drought. Now, less than 10%. The southwest is expecting a deluge of rain this week.

This ridiculous politically motivated “indictment” of Governor Rick Perry stems from the ugly thug tactics of the “politics of personal destruction” that the left is known for. They draw blood and leave scars on conservatives who threaten their political power, hoping the threat retreats and hoping his or her base of support remains silent in fear of becoming collateral damage.

On July 6, 1936 maximum temperatures in the Dakotas averaged a mind boggling 110 degrees. A day earlier Gann Valley, SD had hit 120 degrees.

NOAA claims that 2012 had the largest area of hot temperatures on record in the US, by a wide margin.

2012 wasn’t even close. 1936 and 1934 both had much more extensive 100 degree coverage than 2012, and 1901 did too.

So far this year more than 100 black people have been murdered by other blacks – just in Chicago alone. If you are a white progressive, you don’t talk about that – because it doesn’t give you an opportunity to hate on yourself.
