Real Climate Science

Actually, I was talking about snow. Not the darker material Katherine normally shovels.

Future King Charles III and present King Barry I, have both decreed that we must trust the scientists. Who could argue with such clear headed thinking by these people of fine breeding?

BEGINNING about 1,100 years ago, what is now California baked in two droughts, the first lasting 220 years and the second 140 years. Each was much more intense than the mere six-year dry spells that afflict modern California from time to time, new studies of past climates show. The findings suggest, in fact, that relatively wet periods like the 20th century have been the exception rather than the rule in California for at least the last 3,500 years

Every person in LA owes Mikey Mann a debt of gratitude for creating the hockey stick, and making their city the lovely place it is today.

Charles said it was “baffling … that in our modern world we have such blind trust in science and technology that we all accept what science tells us about everything – until, that is, it comes to climate science.”

I accept that snow is a thing of the past, but why do I keep having to shovel it? And I certainly plan to move to Antarctica, as the UK Chief Scientist instructed us.

Governments have spent hundreds of billions of dollars on global warming, and what do we have to show for it? Nothing but a frozen country and some tampered data.

You would think that with all the money they spent, they could have at least given us a warm winter. After 17 years of no warming, that works out to 0.0 degrees per billion dollars.

I spent January, 2006 in Fort Collins. It was ridiculously warm, and no snow. Then I went out to work in the Bay Area for a few months, and by mid-July it was so hot that our apartment swimming pool in Cupertino warmed all the way to the bottom. Normally, summers are very cool there.

We drove back from California in mid-July and it was over 115 degrees in Sacramento. The following week was the hottest week in Fort Collins history. Global warming had clearly destroyed the climate. CO2 was trapping huge amounts of heat.

Then in September, I was coaching soccer and the weather turned cold and wet. By Christmas, we had the biggest snowstorm in Fort Collins history – and the rest of the winter was bitter cold and snowy.

Apparently, CO2 was not keeping us warm after all.
