TAR’s conclusion that “most of the observed warming over the last 50 years is likely to have been due to the increase in greenhouse gas concentrations”.
The climate ignored CO2 from 1940 to 1977, but once the PDO shifted in 1977 – Mann-made CO2 decided to get up off its lazy ass and really warm the place up.
After years of alarmists saying that I know nothing about climate (Reggie said I was the second stupidest person on the Internet) some climate scientist was accusing me on Twitter yesterday of being Dr. Judith Curry. (I angrily pointed out that I am Toto, not Judy.)
Perhaps they don’t think I’m so dumb after all.
This is a recent picture of me relaxing at home.

About 15 years ago, some very well known government scientists made the decision to exaggerate Mann-made global warming in order to get funding and attention. They thought it was OK to lie and tamper with data, because eventually their psychosis would play out in the real world.
The climate didn’t cooperate, and now they are exponentially tampering with data to hide the cooling trend.
But they have a problem. Cold Pacific water is producing a severe drought in California, and near record cold is headed towards the Superbowl. Do they continue down the desperately criminal path they have chosen, does someone from the inside rat them out, or do they try to change course?
You really can’t make up entertainment like this. Stay tuned.
An exodus of tens of millions of mentally diseased California voters to the Rocky Mountain states and midwest could be catastrophic.
The declaration comes during one of the driest winters on record in California, following two dry years that already have left many reservoirs depleted. The state is facing “perhaps the worst drought that California has ever seen” since records began, Brown said during the Friday morning announcement.

Jerry should check back with us in 218 years about that Mann-made record drought.
July 19, 1994BEGINNING 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, and that mega-droughts are likely to recur.The evidence for the big droughts comes from an analysis of the trunks of trees that grew in the dry beds of lakes, swamps and rivers in and adjacent to the Sierra Nevada, but died when the droughts ended and the water levels rose. Immersion in water has preserved the trunks over the centuries.
Dr. Scott Stine, a paleoclimatologist at California State University at Hayward, used radiocarbon dating techniques to determine the age of the trees’ outermost annual growth rings, thereby establishing the ends of drought periods. He then calculated the lengths of the preceding dry spells by counting the rings in each stump.
Severe Ancient Droughts: A Warning to California – New York Times
Scientists are 99% certain that humans are destroying the planet with Mann-made global warming, and they are simultaneously baffled why low solar activity is causing global cooling.
THE overwhelming consensus among climate scientists is that human-caused climate change is happening. Yet a fringe minority of our populace clings to an irrational rejection of well-established science. This virulent strain of anti-science infects the halls of Congress, the pages of leading newspapers and what we see on TV, leading to the appearance of a debate where none should exist.
Our Department of Homeland Security has urged citizens to report anything dangerous they witness: “If you see something, say something.” We scientists are citizens, too, and, in climate change, we see a clear and present danger. The public is beginning to see the danger, too — Midwestern farmers struggling with drought, more damaging wildfires out West, and withering record summer heat across the country — while wondering about possible linkages between rapid Arctic warming and strange weather patterns, like the recent outbreak of Arctic air across much of the United States.
This past summer was one of the coolest on record in the US. There is no drought in the midwest, and only a complete imbecile would believe that cold is caused by heat.
