Junk Science Week: IPCC commissioned models to see if global warming would reach dangerous levels this century. Consensus is ‘no’

Even if you pile crazy assumption upon crazy assumption, you cannot even manage to make climate change cause minor damage

The debate over climate change is horribly polarized. From the way it is conducted, you would think that only two positions are possible: that the whole thing is a hoax or that catastrophe is inevitable. In fact there is room for lots of intermediate positions, including the view I hold, which is that man-made climate change is real but not likely to do much harm, let alone prove to be the greatest crisis facing humankind this century

Antarctic sea ice area is at an all-time record high for the date, and is increasing since 1979 at a rate of 52,000 Manhattans per century.

The NSIDC web site has links to articles citing the threat to penguins from declining sea ice in Antarctica.

When future generations try to understand how the world got carried away around the end of the 20th century by the panic over global warming, few things will amaze them more than the part played in stoking up the scare by the fiddling of official temperature data. There was already much evidence of this seven years ago, when I was writing my history of the scare, The Real Global Warming Disaster. But now another damning example has been uncovered by Steven Goddard’s US blog Real Science, showing how shamelessly manipulated has been one of the world’s most influential climate records, the graph of US surface temperature records published by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Goddard shows how, in recent years, NOAA’s US Historical Climatology Network (USHCN) has been “adjusting” its record by replacing real temperatures with data “fabricated” by computer models. The effect of this has been to downgrade earlier temperatures and to exaggerate those from recent decades, to give the impression that the Earth has been warming up much more than is justified by the actual data. In several posts headed “Data tampering at USHCN/GISS”, Goddard compares the currently published temperature graphs with those based only on temperatures measured at the time. These show that the US has actually been cooling since the Thirties, the hottest decade on record; whereas the latest graph, nearly half of it based on “fabricated” data, shows it to have been warming at a rate equivalent to more than 3 degrees centigrade per century.

Yesterday, the team was hysterical about a tiny amount of surface melt across 40% of Greenland’s ice sheet.

Today, the spike is gone. Eighteen years of no global warming is just weather, but one relatively warm day in one location is climate.

When Obama was running for president, he said that marriage is a sacred bond between a man and a woman.

As soon as he took office, his views “evolved” on the issue, and now he is pushing homosexuality like it is going out of style.

Regardless of your views on that topic, when a candidate misrepresents his position to the voters – he destroys democracy. Voting becomes meaningless when a candidate lies about his beliefs and intentions. Obama wants to be dictator and force his will on everyone else. He considers other people’s opinions to be uninformed and unnecessary, particularly those of voters.

It is the Constitutional responsibility of the House of Representatives to put an end to this, while they still can.

The White House is focused like a laser on an essential trace gas, which makes up much less than one tenth of one percent of the atmosphere. Secretary of State John Kerry said a few months ago that CO2 was the biggest threat mankind has ever faced.

Since he made that remark, war has broken out in the Ukraine, the US has been invaded by huge numbers of undocumented immigrants, and Iraq has nearly collapsed.

The White House believes that the solution to all of these problems is to confiscate freedom and money from US citizens.

Thirty-nine percent of USHCN data is now fabricated, meaning that there is now 39% more monthly temperature data reported than measured, compared to less than 5% in 1990.

The fabricated data is warming 7°F/century faster than the measured data since 1990, when the data started disappearing.

In fact, the measured TOBS adjusted data shows no warming since 1990. All US warming since 1990 is due to data fabrication.

I am considered a heretic for excluding imaginary temperature data from my analysis, and simply averaging the thermometer data. It is now considered unacceptable by the orthodoxy to use actual measured data.

Progressives are bringing a new definition of freedom to the US, slightly different from the vision millions have given their lives for.

Progressives vision of freedom is being free to get your wang cut off, use any bathroom you want, and then when true freedom arrives – marry your transgender sister or pet.

Almost all life forms emit either CO2 or CH4, which the EPA considers to be dangerous greenhouse gases.

Humans exhale 40,000 PPM CO2, which will eventually and inevitably become an excuse for the government to list humans as biohazards or other toxic waste.

The Sun has begun its descent towards winter, and the high Arctic melt season hasn’t started yet.
